Going for an Interview Tomorrow
Edited on Wed Aug-16-06 08:09 AM by stepnw1f
I could be photo-retouching for a company closer to where I live for more money if things work out. Presently I am an illustrator and have basically illustration with some design layout in my portfolio. To be more specific, I am presently an Illustrator/Product Designer.

Tonight I will have to find some material that targets photo-touch-up work, although I am not sure I have any. I know I have done some in the past, and am very confident that I can handle this position, but a bit nervous because I may not have anything that targets this position I am going for. Also... after the first interview, I will be given a test to take home with me.

Should I be worried about not having photo-retouched samples in my portfolio, or will a portfolio that shows my illustration design skills suffice?

Take home test? They're gonna give you some files to mess with or something like that? Fun!

7. Look online for some high res vintage photos.
They're sure to have quite few scratches and such. Then start going healing brush crazy!
