  • A few months ago we received a press release from McMurdo on a revolutionary product, the Fast-Find 210 PLB, a portable version of an EPIRB, The revolutionary part was not a change in the way distress signals are sent from the device but rather the size (very small) and price point ($299 list) of the device. Subscribing to the theory of Too Good To Be True, we have held off on writing about the product until we had confirmation on the quality of the unit from a trusted source. Today that verification came, via Panbo, from friend of gCaptain and survival expert Doug Ritter.

  • Iâm new to Objective-C and programming for OS X in general, but I get frustrated when all articles, books and tutorials narrow themselves down to just one IDE and push you away from the glory of the command line. So how do you compile a simple âHello World!â application in objective-C on a Mac?

    The lower lights in the picture above are two 250 watts (500w total) to light the green screen (one stand cost $24), the one in the upper right is the back light (kicker) and the one in the middle is my spot light - but the spot is not working well so I am going to build another softbox for this location.

    I use only natural henna directly imported from Middle Eastern manufacturers. I do not use "black henna" or any substance containing PPD.

    My home made henna paste contains all natural ingredients like lemon juice, honey and essential oi

  • This is not the right way to shoot a green screen, but I needed to work in a hurry.

    I found an opportunity to convince some business folks on the benefits of an in-house studio space with a built-in pre-lit green screen. I wanted to make sure the execs knew that we already had the technical capacity to shoot and composite green screen work and that we only needed dedicated space to make an efficient system.

    The first photo shows my basic screen setup inside the office used for my editing/equipment storage room. The main screen is a Photoflex Flexdrop collapsible blue/green screen. Since I needed to grab a full body shot, I clipped on the vinyl green screen that shipped with my copy of Serious Magic Visual Communicator Studio.
