Dennis Dunbar

About:

Dennis Dunbar is a Digital Artist with extensive experience in digital issues. He began compositing images in the darkroom under the tutelage of William Warren, a noted Stock Shooter. After seeing the advantages of working digitally, Dennis jumped in with both feet, setting up his studio in 1991 and soon was working extensively, creating finished artwork for movie posters and commercial ads.
Dennis’s drive to stay on top of the various issues involved in the digital imaging world led him to focus on color management and offer consulting services to his clients in this area.
In the summer of 2002, Dennis was named to the Board of Directors for the Los Angeles Chapter of the Advertising Photographers of America, where he serves as head of the Digital Committee. His work with the APA led him to concentrate on working with groups focused on creating standards for Digital Imaging.

Dennis’s work as a Digital Artist/Retoucher is all about collaboration. Since 1991, he has been working with top Photographers and Art Directors to create compelling images for the Advertising and Entertainment industries. With projects ranging from posters for top Hollywood movies to National Ad Campaigns for major clients, his approach as a collaborator is to make it easy for his clients to realize their vision in creating the finished art.
One of the things he enjoys the most is sharing his insights and experience, helping others to become more fluent in their work. By demonstrating the techniques he uses and discussing the concepts behind them, he seeks to inspire others to take these ideas, experiment with them, and make them their own, taking their skills as image makers to new levels.

He is a founding member of the UPDIG (Universal Photographic Digital Imaging Guidelines) and a member of the DISC Committee as well. More information on these groups is available at: www.updig.org and www.disc-info.org
