This week’s Week in Review will take you through all of the events of the past seven days and get you up to speed with the PicsArt universe. Right off the bat, our second issue of PicsArt Monthly came out for November, and we can say honestly that we are extremely proud of the final result. This is something you won’t want to miss. We also published our Thanksgiving Photography Tips and Tricks, to help get you ready for the coming festivities. You’ll also find the Best of the Blog, all of last week’s contests, user galleries, the most popular photos on social media, and more. We’ve posted it all below so take a look for yourself!
In Social Media
Most Popular Photo on Facebook, Google+, and Twitter
The most popular Photo of the Day in all social media last week was this brilliant right angle photograph by Robert Angelo Laure Rabuco (@mrshungit). A right angle photograph is one that plays with perspective to alter how large or small objects seem to be, and this shot was such a clever stroke of creativity that it garnered 2,959 likes and 64 shares on Facebook. It was also the most popular Photo of the Day on Google+ and Twitter.
Art Contests
Motion Blur Effect Weekend Art Project #WAPmotionblureffect
Our Weekend Art Project featured PicsArt’s Motion Blur Effect, challenging users to bring their action shots to life with crafty editing. The Motion Blur Effect inserts the blur of moving objects wherever the artist chooses, and this contest really showed what can be done with this great effect. The contest winner was Arvin (@asanita), who added speed to his photo of his snoopy racecar toy.
Fashion Drawing Challenge #DCfashion
Our Drawing Challenge last week had users compete painting fashion drawings which showcased a colorful array of unique styles. 356 drawings in total competed during the challenge, with Laila (@renolai), one of PicsArt’s most frequent contest winners, taking home the gold.
Thanksgiving Card Graphic Design Contest #GDthanksgiving
PicsArtists showed their appreciation in the spirit of Thanksgiving by taking part in our Thanksgiving Card Graphic Design Contest. 673 designs were entered, in which photos, text, clipart, and all of PicsArt’s resources were used to create gorgeous cards. Brandi Nicole (@magiccoffeecup) was the contest winner.
