A Photographer & Graphic Design Artist with a extensive background in consumer electronics and digital technology.
Welcome,
My name is Michael Raposo, a born and raised Victoria B.C. Artist. My passion for art and design started as a child when I was exposed to art from a friends mother who was a fine arts graduate from the University of Victoria. The early exposure sparked my interest in design and innovation. I was an extremely curious kid who needed to know how everything worked and would explore and take everything apart to find out. At a young age I knew I wanted to create. My initial passion was for the automotive design and technology industries.
Then in 1994 the Personal Computer came into my life and had access to the internet in its early form. At fourteen I started building custom Personal Computer systems and got involved with the car audio and electronics industry. From there I grew into a career in digital technologies & consumer electronics. I was always involved with technologies in there infant stages and was able to teach myself as the technologies matured.
I ended up building myself a computer specifically for graphics and video editing, From there i started doing some basic graphics and video editing and it became a hobby of mine.
I then got involved with home audio, video installations and received training in Image Science Calibrations. There I learned a lot about calibrating displays and the dynamics of color. That training gave me a lot of knowledge into the world of color and how the human eye sees details only in the grey scale. With those leanings I was able to apply it to my photography and give more depth to my art.
