Graphic Design from Poetry

Interactive Graphic Design with Words

image

Held every year in Bremen, Germany, Poetry on the Road is an international literature festival. The theme for the festival in 2007 and 2008 was designed by Boris Müller, a professor at the Interface Design programme of the University of Applied Sciences Potsdam, using software that generates a graphic design based on words. There’s an interactive demonstrator that lets you enter your own words to generate designs - quite interesting. Check out the viewer for 2008 here and for 2007 here.

Andrew Balis | 07/22- 02:29 PM

Getting Video In and Out of Color

image

One of the most confusing issues that comes up frequently with new users of Color is how to get in and out of Color with different types of video formats. Therefore, the purpose of this article is to clear up the confusion by presenting the four main workflows Color can utilize, as well as how each format can be handled by Color.  This article relates to users of Color version 1.0.2 or later.  We’ll look at how to handle video formats captured via capture card, as well as how to work with “native” formats captured via FireWire such as DV, DVCPRO 50, DVCPRO HD and HDV.

Drobo Delivers Data Defense

Sara Frances | 05/26- 10:09 AM

Super Heroic efforts rule the digital universe,

where we’re all acquiring and creating media at an alarming rate—media that requires vast amounts of storage space. If your clients are like mine, they are remarkably unsophisticated, sometimes even careless, about how and why to protect the valuable images we make for them. Drobo® changes all that. When they come crying to you, wouldn’t it be great to be the hero and say, “yes, I’ve got you covered!”

Studio Daily posted the review last week after pounding the thing on a number of edits

Last week Studio Daily published my Adobe Premiere Pro CS6 review. It’s a longie but a goodie as I tried to go into detail about what I really like and what I kinda don’t like about this brand new Premiere Pro. I had been pounding it hard on several projects before writing the review. I have had a few questions about exactly what kind of jobs I’ve been working on with it.
