Photoshop Manipulation and concept by George Pontino Jr.

*See The Making below...

Tools: Photoshop CS5 I Mac OSX Lion I Wacom pen and tablet


My intro will be lesser this time for i wanted to highlight the final and behind the scenes images. This photomanipulation was borne out of a request. Thanks to Ralph Ledesma (a beatboxer) and his photo taken by Fiel Efenio that I was able to come up with another challenging yet satisfying photomanipulation that is both mysterious and cute, in a sense. Inspired by the Japanese cute culture called Kawaii and robotics, I gathered some juice of creativity for a taming scene (Think the How to Tame Your Dragon scene where the young Hiccup tamed Toothless. You get the Idea) Now, think of a robo bulldog alien that seems fierce but made of speakers and headset, but if you look closely, it is an adorable bot creature that's just want to invade our planet with its beatboxing sounds. Check out below for the step by step image

Astro: a sci-fi animated Save the Date



Inspired by Apple's advertising mantra "Think Different", I was challenged to develop a science-fiction based Wedding Teaser for lovely couple Jaevi and Brian Lim. It was in busy December and their big day was fast approaching. I believe that creativity usually is pushed to greater heights when one is pressured. Too many ideas can drown you but with quick decisions and a splash of hardwork it is always possible. And ASTRO, became a possibility. Jaevi and Brian are now expecting their first baby. Congratulations.

Pre-Nuptial Photomanipulation for Jun and Che's Wedding (A Fantasy)

Photos and Text by: George Pontino Jr.

Weddings are undeniably special. That's why it takes months to prepare a wedding. Couples encounter a massive amount of information overload and decision-making like, for example, in choosing the theme of their once-in-a-lifetime wedding day.
And for couple Jun and Che, they have chosen a fairy-tale-inspired theme and specifically that of Rapunzel. Challenging to realize bu,t of course, it has the magical and lasting appeal not only to the couples  but to the guests as well.

photomanipulations for the couple


And to realize that imagined magical world, we went to a secret island -- 4 hours away from the capital city of Bacolod in the Philippines by private car and another 30-minutes by pump boat. Upon arriving, the secret island was kind of abandoned and eerie specially when night time comes though there are modern amenities that are waiting for us there for us to use as background locations. 
We had exclusive adventures that of course paved ways to great photography, videos and photomanipulation concepts.
