E! News reveals Kim Kardashian’s 3D cover for World’s Most Beautiful!

Last night, the wonderful team at E! News revealed the 3D version of the premiere cover of the world’s first 3D magazine—World’s Most Beautiful. I’ve posted it here nice and big so you can really appreciate the 3D.

 

Now, here are my quick notes on maximizing the 3D experience:

1) Turn your monitor/phone/tablet up to max brightness (very important).

2) Turn off all lights or go to a dark room, so there are no visual distractions. You may even want to shrink this browser window to the size of the picture, to remove 2D distractions on the sides.

3) Put on your red-cyan 3D glasses (available at WorldsMostBeautiful.com).

 

Enjoy!

E! News breaks the story of World’s Most Beautiful 3D!

Thanks to the help of my wonderful friends at E! News, the secret is out! The whole world now knows about WMB 3D: World’s Most Beautiful! The E! Online announcement coupled with the primetime E! News broadcast brought in so much traffic it crashed the entire family of Slickforce servers. And thanks to my stellar IT team, we were back up in a matter of minutes. Now that’s what you call one of those good problems.

The Slickforce Crew does Las Vegas at PhotoshopWorld West!

We just got back from PhotoshopWorld in Las Vegas last week and had a blast! We threw stunning models Esther Hanuka and Ayanna Jordan (discs 1 & 7 for Mastering Retouching fans) in the trunk of the car and drove to Sin City on a mission!

The big news at this show was that Mastering Retouching ships iPad-ready, which had many curious customers circling the booth. I also took advantage of our PSW presence by announcing the first PhotoKamp, a 2.5-day workshop for photographers and artists, on November 12-14 in Los Angeles. The pre-launch of PhotoKamp was met with overwhelming response…so much so that we are almost completely sold out less than 2 weeks from the initial announcement!

We also doubled our booth size this year from the Orlando show, which allowed us many more opportunities to meet our friends and fans, as well as many talented photographers and Photoshop artists. German wunderkind Calvin Hollywood dropped by to say hello and meet the models, and we were also blessed with the presence of PhotoshopWorld royalty Matt Kloskowski (PS genius), Dave Cuerdon (retouching legend) and Wacom guru Wes Maggio.

But, with all due respect to the talented artists we met, no one impressed me more than my beloved Slickforce team. Director of Ops Kevin Savarese, lead retoucher Joyce Park, and assistant Derek Eskridge assisted models Esther and Ayanna in educating the public on the Slickforce brand, and photographers Clint Davis and Matt Timmons graciously joined us to show their support as well. I am moved and humbled by the dedication of my team, and it motivates me even more to keep our brand growing.
