I recently read an article on photofucus.com titled “The Biggest Lie In Both the Still Photo & Video Production Industry“. You may have seen my tweet about the article. Writer/Photographer Scott Bourne discusses the problems with technically inclined photographers and videographers thinking you can fix just about anything in post production.
I come from the computer site of graphic design, video and photography and in a lot of situations I too think to myself that I/we can fix it. Scott brings up good points that all turn back to realizing that most post work is not as good as doing the right thing the first time about and just reshoot it correctly in the camera. It doesn’t look as good, sound as good and in many cases costs much more time and money to “fix it in post”.

When I watch a video like this I can’t help but be inspired creatively.
I am also always amazed at how great Our God is by experiencing something as awesome as this video is. The God of the Bible created all of this and so much more for us to explore, be amazed, and glorify Him.
What amazes you and sparks creativity in your work? Things like the above video are what fuel me and what I do.
After experimenting with Web Fonts last month I decided to start using them on my Portfolio site as well as this Design Blog. Note You’ll only see this effect with the most modern web browsers. If you are not using the latest versions of Firefox or Safari you should really upgrade now! I have provided screenshots below for your viewing so you can see what you are missing.
Continuing my little series of upcoming web standards soon to be included in most browsers (only the Steve’s at MS know if IE will include CSS3 & HTML 5), here are some examples of HTML 5 out in the wild. Apple’s Safari browser, and the beta of Firefox support these HTML 5 features.
Not only does this Youtube demo use <header> & <footer>, <nav>, and <article> tags but it uses the promising <video> tag which eliminates the need for <embed> and <object> tags which require browser plugins to display video in a browser. Google also demonstrates some 3D graphic rendering in the browser, using O3D, an open-source web API for creating rich, interactive 3D applications.
