What Apps Are We Using This Month? with Sukru Mehmet Omur
Welcome to TheAppWhisperer’s new section, “what apps are we using this month” series, where we discover which apps you are particularly enjoying. Kicking us off today is non-other than Award Winning Mobile Photographer, Sukru Mehmet Omur.
This month I use as I always do the apps Hipstamatic and ProCamera for shooting. I use Snapseed and Picsplay for editing and I particularly love the clarity function in Picsplay. For texture and filters I prefer to use Distressed FX and Formula. And Pixanova for layering. I want to experiment with Lightroom and Photoshop Express for shooting and editing.
I think also the AI will be the future of mobile artistry, I love to experiment with different applications to understand the best they can give.
For further experimental use Imaengine for ink work. It gives interesting and some beautiful results. I recommend mobile artists to experiment with different applications that they can find in Apple store and to always finish their work with a Snapseed touch.
I think experimenting with layering textures and filters are very important in this mobile artistry world.
Best wishes to all my mobile artists friends and thank you so much for supporting this community.
