Excellent! Clean, easy to navigate, and the examples are fantastic. I particularly like the way you show the elements used in the montages. Great stuff! |

Re: Chris Berry's web site
Thanks Steve, very much appreciated. Started to pick up a few bits of freelance off the back of it. Recently revamped the posters for our local amatuer theatre which were seen by a guy who designs film marketing for Fox, Warner Bros, Dreamworks, you name it. He asked to see more stuff and then said he might have some movie poster work in the new year. So you never know... I've attached one of the theatre posters below. Thanks again for the feedback!  |

Fabulous poster - you have a real talent for this stuff. And starting by doing work for local theatre companies is exactly the way to break into the business. You've got a lot to offer, Chris - I'm sure it will get picked up. Best of luck with it. |

Well, we know how hard it can be to make your name in this business! I'll certainly keep you posted. I know I keep repeating myself, but thanks again for taking the time to reply, Steve. Your advice and encouragement are invaluable. Chris |

Excellent work Chris. Loved the string of 747s touching down so close together - that's what I call runway utilisation! Ever thought of becoming an Air Traffic Controller? The Jekyll & Hyde poster is terrific. I'm looking forward to seeing the poster for Shrek 4. Gordon |

Thanks Gordon The planes one was fun to do - once I got the sizes of the planes right! If one was even slightly out of perspective it threw the whole shot. Chris |

Re: Chris Berry's web site
hi chris you`ve got some really cool stuff there!! i noticed that all of your images are gifs...for what i know images such photographs that have lots of shades and gradients are better optimised as JPGs not only because the compression is less noticeable (compared to gifs) but also because they load faster on the web... at least that`s what i read....  |

Hi Vicho Thanks for the feedback. The originals are JPEGS. My website designer must have put them on as GIFs. Not that I would know the difference! Chris |
