a flash of inspiration, an insight that changed/propelled your career?
I've had a few...The first MAC in 1984 - I bought mine in February - everyone thought I was crazy, but I saw the potential in cutting out all the middle men in graphic production. It, and a lot of hard work allowed me to buy my first house an otherwise impossible dream ( The Print Guide: The Wayback View – My 25th Anniversary with the Apple Macintosh ).
The movie TRON whose effects I was able to replicate using standard photo techniques. (http://the-print-guide.blogspot.ca/2010/12/tronitized-influence-of-tron-on-graphic.html) My clients thought that I was a computer graphics genius at a time when computers were relatively unknown by most folks. I could charge a premium for a secret that few understood.
Did you have one of those insight moments in your career?
