mbr Posted April 5, 2004 Share Posted April 5, 2004 Anyone have any images of people playing tennis? I need a few for a rendering and don't seem to have any. Any ideas? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I had the same problem. The client insisted on tennis players. The solution I came up with was buying some images of tennis players off gettyimages.com and doing a little cut and paste in photoshop. You could also hit the local courts with a camera and bribing some tennis players so you can take a picture of them. I probably should have done the latter but I just passed the cost on to the client and the cold winter months aren't the best for finding tennis players on the courts. Good luck, I'd be interested in finding out what you do. Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaz Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 I got some, but you need to crop it from the background. each file is about 1mb, do you want me to email to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbr Posted April 6, 2004 Author Share Posted April 6, 2004 That would be fantastic!! Please send them to markus@mbrstudios.com. Thanks! I did do a search for them on Getty, but this project is a quick one and fairly low budget. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Nelson Posted April 6, 2004 Share Posted April 6, 2004 You should check out the stock photo websites too. A lot of them you can get small images for free, like this one. http://www.aflofoto.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbr Posted April 6, 2004 Author Share Posted April 6, 2004 Blaz (W) - I have not received anything yet. Any chance the files are too big? My account should take at least 2 mbs. If you wouldn't mind, I have an alternative email at emotion7@emotion7.com . Many thanks. I have checked for stock photos, but the image is being rendered at about 4400 pxs, so I dont' want to put something that will be in the foreground at 72 dpi (compressed). Thanks.
