Chaos and CollaborateSF

Written by: Steve Forde, March 31st, 2009

Back on the blog after a pretty psycho week at Photoshop World Boston.  Was a wicked cool show, and thanks to all who stopped by to say hello.
Just saw this - Comments on our website re-design and the “Chaos, Meet Order.” graphics.  Very cool.  It’s funny - we make a product for designers, and the [...]

Thank you Photoshop World!

Written by: angietaylor, March 27th, 2009

I’m just about to do my last stint of talking at Photoshop World here in Boston. As an After Effects specialist, the majority of trade shows and events I’ve spoken at have been video-related so it’s only my second Photography event. I was slightly apprehensive about it, would I know anybody, would they be interested [...]

I’ve been slightly apprehensive about doing this event as it’s slightly outside my comfort zone, being [...]

Several images are worth several thousand words

Written by: danielbrown, March 25th, 2009

Canon has a new camera  - the 5D Mark II – and it is creating quite a stir. Aside from being a pretty awesome SLR camera, it also happens to shoot hi-def video. In fact, it shoots what most people (including me) consider to be breathtaking video. This little camera is doing what hundred-thousand dollar [...]

Bacon and Airbags

Written by: danielbrown, March 13th, 2009

John Nack, principal product manager of Adobe Photoshop, noted in his blog today that some internal folks at Adobe are putting Flow through its paces. One designer noted that Flow had, as John puts it, “saved her bacon” (that last word varies by context and person) after she accidentally wrote over a file, and Flow [...]

Video online - QT vs FLV?

Written by: angietaylor, March 13th, 2009

I’ve been doing a bit of research into video formats for the web and wanted to get some feedback from viewers on what are perceived pros and cons associated with the different formats available.
I’ve always like Quicktime as it’s easy to encode and embed, plus, you can allow viewers to download the QT and view [...]

NAB out - Photoshop World Boston In.

Written by: Steve Forde, March 11th, 2009

For the first time in I can’t remember how long - we are not going to exhibit at NAB (National Association of Broadcasters) this April in Las Vegas.  The main reason - we are doing WAY more events than we used to.  We find the time and effort much better spent on smaller shows, seminars [...]

Use, or be used?

OK, I have a confession to make! I have a problem. It wakes me up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat. It gets me hot under the collar! I think about it constantly and my life just revolves around it.
But I’ve heard there [...]

My aunt is an amateur photographer, shooting primarily events at my cousin’s school as well as various other parties and gatherings. She shoots all this, mind you, with a film camera. Yes, even now. And, yes, we’ve had “the discussion” about the many benefits to “going digital”.
Now, before the hate mail comes [...]
