Amy works as a photojournalist, meaning each project is a story for a publication. After capturing images on the field, Amy heads to her home studio to import files with extensive metadata, then proceeds to edit. When working for National Geographic, each story has about 30,000 to 40,000 images, and that’s a lot of sorting and editing. Outside of National Geographic, a typical workday for Amy involves around 1000 images. Importantly, for Amy “editing” means picking and choosing which images to use, not altering images in any way. Amy doesn’t use post processing.
Having color accurate and beautiful monitors from BenQ in her studio helps Amy choose images because she can better understand and predict how they will appear in their ultimate venue or context. Color accurate monitors help with the interpretation process of an original scene, and maintain authenticity much better than general use displays. Color communicates mood and story and makes all the difference. So, Amy needs a monitor that shows files with complete color accuracy so that she can provide works to clients with confidence. The BenQ monitors Amy uses show images as they were shot, and have proven essential in her workflow.
Color is one of the most powerful ways to communicate a story, and as with all communication, accuracy is essential. With BenQ PhotoVue Monitors, Amy knows she has accuracy to rely on.
