Challenge: Improve an environmental portrait

Challenge: Improve an environmental portrait

(upbeat music) - [Chris] Welcome to the challenge movie for this chapter. And after that last movie, you're probably thinking, "I do not want to see the challenge. It's going to be too challenging." Well, the challenge image for this chapter isn't that challenging, but what it is is a little bit more practical. This is an environmental portrait, a lifestyle portrait, and I have this area of the wall right here. And the client has said, "Hey, Chris, can you add bricks to this area? And can you extend the canvas a little bit so there's some space over there so we can add some copy to this?" So that's your challenge. Your challenge is to change the crop a little bit, so shift the composition, and to fill this area in with bricks. Best of luck to you, and be sure to come back to the next movie where I'll show you my own approach.
