Vecterisation

When you have raster image of smaller size which has to be blown up to a larger extent then the only option is to vectorize the image. Raster image is made up of individual pixel and has huge information but has limitation in terms of enlargement. Vector image can be blown to any extent without image getting blurred and still holding to every detail.

  • Illustrations and Artwork

Creative Designing

The creative process is all about coming up with a result that is totally new or taking something established and reinventing it in a new way. It involves taking an idea, a prompting, a need, a work order or a creative brief and imagining a visual solution. This is beyond an expert knowledge of Photoshop or InDesign, it is an internal ability to come up with new and inventive ways to fulfil a need.

It includes :- AD Production, Print Ready PDF Creation etc.

Dynamic Database Publishing

Dynamic page publishing is a method of designing publications in which layout templates are created which can contain different content in different publications. Using this method, page designers do not work on finished pages, but rather on various layout templates and pieces of content, which can then be combined to create a number of finished pages. In cases where the same content is being used in multiple layouts, the same layout is being used for several different sets of content, or both, dynamic page publishing can offer significant advantages of efficiency over a traditional system of page-by-page design.
