Sports Illustrated’s digital workflow

Saturday 20 March 2004This is close to 21 years old. Be careful.

A fascinating article about how Sports Illustrated uses digital photography to produce their images: Sports Illustrated’s Digital Workflow. They took 16,183 shots at the Super Bowl, over a million over the course of the year. It’s interesting to read the details of how they manage and process the photos.

Best quote, on the sports-specific trick of color-correcting photos:

There’s only so many pro teams, and we know what color their uniforms are.
