Umang Dahya
A small sample of my work over the last decade. All of the work below is all through Adobe programs such as Photoshop however I have skills in the whole suite. These designs are just a small overview - there are hundreds of other pieces of work I have done with many other softwares but there is not enough space to showcase it.
I specialise in graphics, photography and videography. In fact almost all the media you find on the Shadows Productions website is also a part of my work. I can adapt my skills to anything a client or employer requests of me as I have over a decade of experience. I am always willing to learn and show off my newly gained skills, forever perfecting my art.
Notable Features : Pizza Hut NZ, DIPLO, Harvey Norman NZ, Snapchat
Software used: Adobe Photoshop & Lightroom, Final Cut Pro X, Premiere Pro, InDesign.
Pizza Hut NZ
Creative photography of the last Pizza Hut family restaurant before the company had switched to a takeaway only format through New Zealand. The work was featured in Pizza Hut New Zealand's social channels.
Eclipse Insurance
Eclipse insurance originally had an advert like this however was low resolution and was not up to print quality. I had remade it into HD quality and done photography for the team photos - the new advert I had produced had then been printed in the Indian Newslink newspaper and also the Western Leader.
Tournament Medal Designs
I had been asked to make designs for Medal's provided to winning teams. These medals were produced and were stunning in the final pieces. Along with medals I had also done the photography and videography for the tournament.
Shadows Productions NZ
Since launching Shadows Productions NZ, every display picture, graphic design, table, chart and photographic & videographic content has had my hand in making.
Including the design of this website that this portfolio is viewed through.
Ultra Media
Various graphic designs for my own personal social channels which has lead on to many social influencers to request and comission designs for their own businesses.
Clothing Design
I had designed T-Shirts for clients. Other articles of clothing such as uniforms, hats, formal shirts too!
Flawless clothing co.
Comissioned to make a new logo and design for the Flawless Cltohing co.
Website Design & User Interface Creation
I had been assigned to create concepts for websites & execute them as well. Concepts made in Photoshop then coded in HTML5 with CSS. Animations were made in Adobe fireworks and Adobe flash.
Snapchat Filter Design
Designed and launched Snapchat GeoFilters for Auckland, other cities & events. "Chillin’ in Auckland" was the only filter that was able to have customisable font colour - I was thinking outside of the box and let users be change colours through snapchats’ limits. Diplo, a global celebrity DJ had used my filter and exposed my work to the world! (First pic on the left).
Photo Restoration
A client had asked me to restore a badly damaged photo of her loved one. I had spent hours restoring the photo through Photoshop, the photo was of great sentimental value to the client and was very grateful for the final outcome as seen in the before and after above.
Photography
I’ve done hundreds of events by now, basically covered everything from cultural events, sports, school ball’s - you name it!
Right now i’m loving shooting black and white images. Everything is still shot on a DSLR/Mirrorless.
Shot on either a Canon 550D & 760D or EOS R. Edited only with Adobe Lightroom & Adobe Photoshop.
