The Google Splash Doodle

How did they do it?

I wondered.

Was it with real paint? Or the computere?

Here it is. We actually get to see it being made.

Now how much fun is this.

Isn’t video wonderful?

I really enjoy all that is available for us.

I hope you’re enjoying too.

Here’s the article that showed me the way.

CREATIVE PHOTO PROJECT

BY TIFFANY M

If you’ve never heard of Atlanta based photographer, Alex Koloskov, you may want to do a quick Google search of him.

Water Heart • Alex Koloskov

In terms of thinking outside of the box, Koloskov basically epitomizes it. Watching him perform his art during a commercial photoshoot is pretty entertaining.

He likes to makes messes. Big messes. And it usually involves throwing liquids–sometimes at people– to photograph it mid-air.

By the way, speaking of Google and throwing messy liquids in front of cameras, it turns out Koloskov is the genius behind the popular Google Splash logo, which makes perfect sense. Have a look at how he pulled it off:

Koloskov makes it look so easy, but that’s probably “ because the idea of slinging paint all over in a photography studio is so appealing to me–and also totally worth the mess.”

Makes you wonder how many people just assume the logo was entirely computer generated instead of coming from manipulated photographs.
