America WAS online, until about 30 seconds ago…
By: Steve Modica on Jan 8, 2013 at 11:09:21 am
Back when I was at SGI slaying dragons I had the good fortune to visit America Online. At the time, AOL was moving about 20% of the USA’s email traffic through SGI Challenge XL servers. This was around the time they crossed 10 million (with an M) users. That was a lot back then – there were t-shirts printed. Facebook is approaching 1 billion (with a B) users today. As you can imagine, AOL introduced some serious issues of scale to our products. We’d never really had anyone use a Challenge XL server to handle 100,000 mail users (much less...

Having cut my teeth in live college news, both shooting ENG stories as well as live sudio production (my specialty was TD on an ancient Ross switcher), for the next 15 years or so it has been all EFP. Even when in the studio it was still single camera in most cases. Earlier in 2012 we set out to build a new video-based platform for radiologic technologist continuing education. We found a great studio, WMHT up in Troy, NY (the local PBS affiliate), lined up presenters, wrote scripts, created graphics, found a makeup artist with HD experience, and went live....

Thanks to the SSD boot drive, hex core i7 and a whopping 32GB of RAM he is flying! We tried to bring in the workstation as close to $2K as we could. We went a little bit over, but...

Fixing Soft Focus in Photoshop
By: Richard Harrington on Jan 2, 2013 at 6:19:00 pm
Cameras are much more likely to generate a soft focus under low light. The Smart Sharpen filter has the most options of any sharpening filter built into Photoshop. It allows you to choose the sharpening algorithm as well as control the amount of sharpening in shadow and highlight areas. This filter can produce dramatically better quality, but do not expect results like you see in a TV police drama. 1. Open the Sharpen1.tif file, available with other sample images in this downloadable ZIP archive , and zoom the document window to 100%. This will give you the most accurate view...

Less than two years out of office, George Herbert Walker Bush doesn't need to introduce himself of course. That would inevitably come off as condescending, and that's not his style. (He does however introduce me to the member of his security contingent who'd be accompanying me. "This is Keith" was about the sum of it.)

Stereoscopic Cinema - A Discussion and Review of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey
By: Mike Cohen on Dec 28, 2012 at 2:58:04 pm
I just posted this in the Film History and Appreciation forum, but think this is a good blog entry as well. The title of this post, Stereoscopic Cinema, is meant to suggest that films like Avatar, The Hobbit and perhaps other well executed stereo films are in fact a new format. I don't like the general use of "3D" - because 3D can mean so many things. Muppetvision 3D and Terminator 3D are great theme park attractions which use elements outside of the screen to involve the audience in the experience. Old favorites like Captain EO and the 1950's 3D...

Auto companies and the medical industry used these to monitor real-time processes like engine performance or patient vital signs.

Yes, the Ansel Adams. “Ansel Adams was such a wonderful mentor,” Packard says, “teaching me pre-visualization in his still photography. We would go out with a pin-hole ‘camera’ shoebox with only one exposure. I knew I had to get it right the first time! I walked around my subject looking high and low, moving far left and right before releasing the cap.” The lessons stayed with Packard. “I still do that on my film sets, watching where the actors...

Setting Goals for the New Year

I hate New Year's resolutions. They're the worst . I think the year flipping from 2012 to 2013 is entirely arbitrary and should have no bearing on what I do with myself, mostly because nearly all resolutions are forgotten by Valentine's Day anyway. However , it seems as good a time as any to set overall year-long goals and check in on how you're doing, right? But not resolutions. If you call 'em that, you're going to bail and you know it. Plus, you can always add to them throughout the year if you feel the need. For the last...

Making Long Exposures without a Tripod

A fun technique when shooting water is to go for the long exposure. The water goes silky and becomes great to look at. For many, this type of shooting means a solid tripod and a remote release. But what happens if you don t own those items (or have them with you)? That s easy improvise. Put the camera in manual mode and set it on a flat surface like a bench, garbage can, or railing. Set your aperture to the smallest aperture you have. Attach a ND filter if you have one. Set the timer delay on the camera....
