Good Morning Everybody,
I’ve got lots of good news for you guys and gals today – let’s get right to it. We had one sweet drive to Atlanta yesterday in my brand new car - it felt like we riding on a cushion of air for the entire trip. To be honest, the ride was exhilarating, not tiring as most road trips can be. We left right at 10:30 a.m. and landed in Atlanta at Denis’s home at 4:30 p.m. – 450 miles, 2 stops, 6 1/2 hours, pretty good time.
It was good to catch up with Denis last evening - we enjoyed a few choice bottles of wine and a wonderful dinner, then turned in fairly early. Today Denis and I are scheduled to meet a consultant who just happens to be an expert on Camtasia and on-line content. What I’m implying is that we are cooking up a few things for down the road at DPT. As usual, I’ll keep you posted.
Interview With Denis Reggie A “Go”
As a surprise for our DPT readers, Denis has agreed to do a 30 minute video interview with me today. That should be cool. It should be cool to get a peek behind the scenes of one of the finest wedding photographers in the world.
The plan is to film later today and I’ll plan to have it on-line tomorrow, all the pixels willing.
Technique Tuesday: Another Blast From The Past!
Today is normally Technique Tuesday and normally I’ve got a new video for you. With the long drive and full schedule today, I’m going to Plan B. I’m re-posting a really popular tutorial from a few years ago entitled, “Porcelain Doll.” This video has been rated one of the Top 10 videos of 2008 so if you missed it or simply need a quick review, you can catch it a second time today.
Here is the back story: I saw this tutorial over at Stock.Xchng, printed it out, and tried to duplicate the result. It took me a few tries until I finally got it. Some of the steps are not super intuitive which is why I thought I would do a video of it.
I really like the effect and see some applications for that really theatrical retouched effect. The folks over at Imagenomic have a great Photoshop plug-in that does what looks like the same thing. We actually use it at my studio and it does a great job, but if you want to save some dollars this tutorial will do the trick. Give it a peek and see what you think.
