  • Final Destination full colour HD 3D (Anaglyph Conversion)

    This clip is a full colour conversion of Final Destination 3D, from Anaglyph source. Left/right colour, brightness & contrast match is almost perfect. There is some light ghosting, but that is unavoidable with anaglyph conversions.

  • Just posted! Sony SLT A55 in-depth review

    Just Posted: Our review of the Sony SLT A55 interchangeable lens camera. Sony’s latest camera uses a fixed translucent mirror to redirect some of the captured light to the autofocus sensor, ensuring it can use fast, phase-detection AF at all times. The result is a full-time live view camera that can shoot at 10 frames per second and autofocus during video shooting. Its radical design blurs the already hazy line between DSLRs and mirrorless interchangeable lens cameras but has the potential to completely re-shape the market. We’ve had a production-standard SLT A55 for a little while now. So does it live up to the promise or did we see right through it? We reflect…

  • Avatar Days – HD

    This is short film directed by Gavin Kelly ( www.piranhabar.ie ) we worked on a while ago called “Avatar Days”. What makes this one special is the fact that it was filmed, vfx’ed and comped all in just 4 days. It was made as part of the “4 day Film” catagory in the Darklight Film Festival. It follows 4 MMORPG players taking about their online persona’s. As they tell their stories we see them go about their everyday lives against the mundane backdrop of city life…but as their Avatars. There was a team of people on this with director Gavin Kelly leading the troupe. I worked on the 3d characters along with John O’ Connell and Will Sharkey. John O’ Connell was 3D Lead.

  • Packing your Bags for a Photo Shoot

    You know I write everything from experience. No point in figuring things out and not passing on the info! So here is a list of simple things to remember (or in my case, forget) when packing up your bags for a photo shoot or wedding:

    • Choose your bag. I have a girly camera bag (from Jo Totes) and a big Lowepro Roller. I use them for different types of work. For example, I bring the roller fully packed with everything I need if I know I have an assistant to roll it around for me. It it’s just me or I know the weather is rainy (mud in the wheels!) I make sure to bring a bag I can wear on me.
    • Charge your batteries and pack the charger
    • Wipe and format the memory cards. Nothing more annoying than stopping a couple midway down the aisle so you can change your memory card and wait the 20 seconds for 8 gigs of last week’s photos to clear out.
    • Check that you have extra batteries for your flash and that you have them in a handy place for a quick change. If you’ve been using them for a while, it might be good to just change them before you head out so it doesn’t become an issue. On that note, ALWAYS make sure you trash used batteries. Even putting them in your pocket can be a no no because I assure you, you will forget if they’re old or fresh.
    • Make sure you’ve packed a lens cleaning cloth.
    • Business cards! Keep a little pile of cards in all your camera bags, handbags and put one or two in your pocket. If I notice that one of the bridesmaids has an engagement ring, I make sure to hand her a card and tell her to check the blog for her friend’s photos within a week.
    • A pen. Seems unimportant, but I find myself needing a pen at least once.
    • One of those little tiny folding umbrellas. But don’t put it back in your case once it’s gotten wet!
    • In all my camera bags, I keep a check list of these things so I can just quickly run through before heading out the door.

Efekt moich eksperymentów z edytowniem U?y?am motywu szachów i kwiatów Editor: Spika16 Song: Naruko no hana – Shimamiya Eiko Program: Sony Vegas Pro, Photoshop Inspiration: Sailor Moon Sacrifice, Tsukuyomi Moon Phase opening For those of you who don’t know what is Sailor Moon Sacriifce: Links: smsacrifice.webs.com www.youtube.com From forum : “Sailor Moon Sacrifice is a fan-made Sailor Moon series by xKaosu and her staff, it will contain some new animation (hand drawn characters/positions and movements that have not been revealed yet, nor will they until the episodes release.), however the majority contains re-coloring (this includes alterations to the existing animation, durr.), visual enhancing, original backgrounds, and masking. Contrary to popular belief, this is not an OVA (original video animation). Many people have asked if it is a real production because of it’s quality and editing, but it is just a fan project made for fans by fans. The plot originated from Fatal Frame(Project Zero) II; Crimson Butterfly, taking its twin theme and ritual, which was later developed into another story as new characters were added. It was influenced by a series that is no longer in production; “Dark Moon Serenity”. About images I used How do I didi it? I used Photoshop It is 80 per cent my work using screen shots form show. Some parts have have to be drawed in 90 per cent.
