How We Killed The Green Screen
Film director Michael Plescia presents updated method of SFX trick, the rear projection, incorporating realtime trompe l'oeil camera position tracking for convincing backdrops, called WallAR:
But, green screen is a great tool, right? Not for one filmmaker.
Watch the story of why and how @MichaelPlescia tried to reinvent filmmaking, visual effects and co-found a company in order to make his feature film even a possibility.
See how the story vision for The Mop Liberator lead to the creation of a technology that is allowing the filmmakers to photograph an imagined cyberpunk world in-camera without any post-production using ARwall, a visual effects compositing technology that combines new mixed-reality screens along with the oldest (and maybe best) trick in the filmmaking book.
This piece delves into the inception, development process, and shows the production test footage of the first ever real-time, in-camera, real-light, real-lens, perspective-adapting, mixed-reality, rear-screen, compositing technique.
Idea: Film ASA Record Insert
I often bulk load my film, so often I don’t have the end of a film box handy to slip into the film reminder window. The card stock is printed with white on black on one side to denote black and white film and red on white on the other side for when I’m using colour negative film.
I also include by contact details in case the camera is lost and the card can also be used as an impromptu business card in a pinch.

LOL! Ahh....the humor, the drama, the inappropriate talk on Christmas Morning....yep. It's official, we need a movie, or better yet, tv show. 
I love this quote, but I just hate the pictures behind these kinds of quotes. Not every single girl looks like those girls, and its annoying when girly quotes like those have perfect girls in the background...its almost like only pretty, skinny girls are allowed to have those kind of experiences. mat4226 posted a photo:
If it's not already apparent, when the sun is shining and the leaves are green, I'm out there shooting as much infrared film as possible!
During the last NE OH Meetup in Bath, OH, the focus of our day excursions was Cleveland's Flats. While many images were shot there, few of us also made it out to the massive Lakeview Cemetery. A privately funded cemetery, Lakeview is a beautiful grounds to be interred at, but at a monthly rental fee not much less than my apartment! x__x
I can't wait to attend the next NE OH Meetup to see what my good friends Jeff, Eva, Dan, and Silke found while they were at the cemetery. ^__^

Terry Jantzi says: “I built a homemade machine that works spectacularly. Made out of surplus steel bowls, a hanging plant basket and a propane torch, I produce all kinds of flavored cotton candy for family and friends.”
I like the way his video progressives from a working prototype to a slick finished project.

Using A MakerBot To Make Plastic Molds For Casting on MakerBot:
Some people are just designed to push the limits of things. They see possibilities where others see limitations. And then there’s the special breed of person who finds all these new answers and then shares them with everyone else. Cosmo Wenman continues to prove himself one such person.1
Here’s Cosmo’s latest: using a MakerBot to make a negative, that is a mold, of something, and then casting the shape in metal. Look at some of the incredible stuff he’s done with this process already.
You’ll see in the video that Cosmo’s using an acetone bath to slowly peel away the ABS mold. This isn’t necessarily something MakerBot encourages people to do, and if you choose to work with acetone, you should do it with a lot of caution. Also, note this extremely important warning on the Thingiverse page for these items:.
About 5 years ago we posted our first shaped bokeh tutorial, it has been on the top 5 popular posts lists for almost every day since. Over the time we amassed a huge wealth of information about shaped bokeh and I really thought we covered everything that there is to cover about it.
Guess not.
[Jeri Ellsworth] finally set aside some time to talk about the build process for her Commodore 64 bass keytar. We think what started by taking a band saw to the guitar body ended up as a fantastic new instrument.
When she was showing off the project at Maker Faire we really only got a cursory look at what it could do. Her most recent video covers all that went into pulling off the project. Once the bulk of the guitar body was gone she tore the guts out of a dead c64 in order to mate the case with the guitar neck. Always the craftsman, she altered the computer’s badge to preserve the iconic look, then went to work adding pickups to each string using piezo sensors. This was done with Maker Faire in mind because magnetic pickups would have been unreliable around all of the tesla coils one might find at the event. These were amplified and filtered before being processed via an FPGA which connects to the original c64 SID 6581 chip.
Meet a man sure to go down in the Kludging Hall of Fame. In 1993, Emile Leray, a French electrician, was driving through the Moroccan desert when his Citroën car broke down.
Stranded in the desert, and far out of walking distance of civilization, Leray pulled up his bootstraps, made a small offering prayer to MacGyver (allegedly), and proceeded to disassemble his trashed car and reassemble the parts into a fully functional motorcycle.
Leray is quoted as saying:
“I put myself in what one calls survival mode. I could not have gone back on foot – it was too far.”
Survival mode paid off big-time, as Leray successfully rode his new motorcycle back to civilization, and out of the clutches of very painful and unfortunate death in the desert. In the end, he journeyed over 20 miles, which may not seem like much, but let me reiterate: try walking 20 miles in the scorching north African desert heat.
Despite making his journey 19 years ago in 1993, he has only recently begun telling his story to the press. Now that is a TIFI WIN of monumental proportions.

In both still photography and video, camera work should generally be invisible to viewers, allowing them to focus on the subject being captured. The same is true for video games. Here’s a nerdy yet fascinating analysis of the camera in the legendary SNES game, Super Mario World. It’s so simple, yet so well designed that it’s not something you’ve probably ever thought about.

Looks good, and conceptually it’s a much better home screen design than Android’s default. I like the idea of three discrete columns: apps, widgets, shortcuts. But, ultimately, what difference could it make? A home screen and a UI theme are only skin deep. How is this any more than the proverbial lipstick on a pig?
Dans la catégorie “tellement mignon, vous allez fondre“, un papa et sa petite fille de deux ans font une partie de cache-cache. Que le papa a eu une belle idée d’immortaliser en vidéo, en partant du point de vue de la petite fille…
Equipée d’une GoPro en guise de bandeau, la fille trottine alors dans tout l’appartement à la recherche de son filou de papa. Rien à dire, c’est mignon tout plein, ingénieux et original.
