Make a DIY 3D "Hologram" Like the One That Brought Tupac Back to Life
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:
Holograms are super cool, but they're hard to make at home. Pepper's Ghost, on the other hand, is a relatively simple 19th century optical trick that looks like a 3D hologram and brought a very dead Tupac Shakur back to the stage. And Joey Shanks is here to show us how to rig up a system to bring Pepper's (or Tupac's) ghost to your home. Click the headline.

It's Big - i mean really big - wow This fascinating ‘new look’ TV is in keeping with Samsung’s efforts to ensure their new, modern TVs are not only functional, but are attractive looking and fit well into any decorative environment. The S9’s LED backlighting also offers the benefit of being able to adapt to even very bright rooms because the TV comes with an anti-glare coating. Click and check it out.

Walt Disney Launched The Golden Age Of Animation
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:
Disney (1901-66) is still seen as a character as large as the ones he drew for the screen. "People don't see him as a Hollywood mogul. He is the lovable uncle," Charles Coletta, an instructor on popular culture at Bowling Green State University in Ohio, told IBD. "He is still very popular. A lot of papers about Walt Disney are still written by students. He had an insight into what the general public found entertaining, and he owns so much of our childhood."

The artist who mastered the art of bringing 2D sketchbooks to life with his pencil has grown tired of black and white, adding much more color to his latest collection. Nagai Hideyuki is a talented, young Japanese artist who has serious anamorphic abilities. Now 23 years old, he continues to build an impressive profile and even shares some of his techniques on YouTube videos like the one below. He also uploads videos of his drawings from different angles to prove that they aren’t actually 3 dimensional. It’s hard to believe sometimes!

This project was created by artist Stan Douglas and the National Film Board of Canada's digital studio. And unlike 3D augmented reality gaming experiences — like the Oculus Rift, which was recently purchased by Facebook for $2 billion — it's a holodeck-like experience and your body is the joystick.

It's summer movie season, which means lots of effects-heavy, big budget romps. And it's easy to feel numbed by all this digital overkill. But when visual effects are used well, they can tell the story instead of distracting from it. Just check out our list of 12 movies that use VFX purely as a storytelling tool.
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:
These films didn't just copy VFX achievements that others had already created, to stuff the screen with more eye candy: they approached storytelling challenges and found solutions. Click the headline to see more.

I like that the speaker Will was straightforward and thorough with explaining different mic options and how to apply different techniques to help the recording process. It interested me that Will demonstrated the muff or "dead cat" showing that the usual use is for wind noise reduction but it may be used for reducing noise in certain vocal overtones.

Mink Is A 3D Printer For Makeup
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:
Simply choose a color on a website, Pinterest board, or snap one with your phone in the real world, and use any color picker to locate the hex code of the color. Once you have the code, you can put it into any other program like Photoshop or Paint and simply press print. The company is targeting the younger, 13-21 demographic who are less ingrained in their habits with certain brands and retailers. The Mink costs less than $200, with plans to launch later in the year Click to watch video and read more..

The importance of competitor price monitoring can never be emphasized enough. Researching on the pricing structure your competition is using online is very critical to the success of your business....
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:
This is for for businesses or people who sell things on the internet. This article was suggested to me and i will post it, even if i don't agree on the subject completely. I know this is how at least 90 % of companies do it. However, the really big one don't. Think Apple would they be what they are if they care so much of competition firms price settings? My philosophy is different, if you want to be in business make your product stand out, make it unik in all the way possible, and make something people wan't. If you just follow the others footsteps you will always be behind. Go and make something exclusive, that's what i like ;-)
