VR headsets are becoming the latest tech must-have to provide the most immersive visual experience possible, without actually being there.
But the power of a punchy picture is nothing new, and a classic out-of-bounds photo effect continues to deliver in terms of interest and engagement.
Freeing a subject from its boundaries is one very effective way of creating a more dynamic and dimensional appearance from a flat photo.
The key is finding the right angle for the image then executing the design in a crisp and creative way.
With literally so many angles to take, it’s no surprise this contest theme is one of the most popular amongst our talented design community.
