Each month we invite a creative to curate our social feed for one week. We spoke with October’s Guest Curator Stormy Nesbit about her illustrations and her journey into livestreaming her creative process.

Behance is home to millions of creatives who are looking for inspiration for their next project. Today, we’re excited to announce Moodboards, a new way for you to collect and organize inspiration on Behance. With Behance Boards, you can save individual images as well as entire projects into moodboards, and add other Behance members as co-owners to better collaborate and share ideas.

To add an image to a moodboard, hover over the image and click “Add to Moodboard.” Any collections you’ve created in the past will now appear as moodboards, so you can add to an existing moodboard or create a brand new one.

As a part of your existing workflow on Behance, moodboards provide a seamless and collaborative way for you to gather reference material and inspiration for photoshoots, creative brainstorms, and more.

Introducing a new feature on Behance: Exif data! Exif data can be an important source of knowledge in figuring out how creatives capture images or what tools they used in their creative process. Project images will now include data on a range of settings, such as exposure, lenses, focal lengths, and software tools used. When Exif data is present on an image, logged in Behance members will see an Info button in the top left corner over the image on hover.

Learn more about how we display EXIF data here or see it in action in this incredible project from Albert Dros.
