Speed Painting / Time Lapse Video: Sketchbook Pro and Wacom Intuos Tablet

Hello!!

I haven't posted in FOREVER!!! To the many millions (if not billions) who follow this blog...I apologize! : )

Anywho...I've been very busy with projects of all kinds since my last post. I hope since I've found my way back I'll be able to post several that have been occupying my time.

I just uploaded a Speed Painting / Time Lapse video to YouTube created using Sketchbook Pro and a Wacom Intuos Tablet. I used Sony Vegas Pro 10 for video editing and Sony Acid for the music. CamStudio (a fantastic freeware program) was used for the video capture of the "painting" process.

Here's a look at the final image:

Pictures from my new camera: My kitty-cat Shasta!!

Hi all!

I'm sitting at a school computer right now and just loaded the first pics from my new digital camera's flash drive to it. I spent WAY to much $$ on the camera so I've gone through about 5 days of buyers remorse.

BUT...as I'm seeing it's photos for the first time on a large screen I'm VERY happy to discover the pictures are AMAZING!!!!! : )

I did a ton of research before I bought this camera and one of the things everyone said in their reviews was that this camera does extremely well is shooting in low light. And it DOES!!

When I first opened the box and put the lens on, I was sitting in my family room and basically started snapping shot after shot from where I sat. I don't have a flash yet...and the only light was coming from the fluorescent over-head lights in the kitchen.

My cat, Shasta, made a handy model and these are from about the first 10 to 20 images I shot, and other than cropping on the one below it's any Photoshop magic. It was also shot in jpeg which is apparently the default image format for the camera. The best quality is RAW format...and those pics look even better!

Anyway...here's' my little girl doing what she does best: Lookin' fantastic! : )
