Capture One 5 Workshop

Since taking the Advanced Digital Workflow Class at Cypress College, I have been introduced to many new and fun programs. One of them being Capture One 4. It is a great raw processing engine for photos and with the pro version shooting tethered to a computer is a breeze. While surfing the net and Calumet’s website, I just happened to notice that they were have workshops on the new Capture One 5 software. The closest one to me is the Calumet Los Angles workshop on Feb. 1, 2010. After seeing the deal that everyone who takes the course gets a free copy of Capture One 5, I was hooked. The normal cost of the program is $129.99. Registration for the workshop is $49.99, so you get the software and two and a half hours of training on the software. If anyone from the Digital Workflow Class is going to be going let me now. Right now Grace and myself have signed up for the Capture One 5 Workshop.

Flickr War - October

Well another month down in Grace and my Flickr war. Now there is only 5 more months to go before our year long battle is over. Since we started I have been in the lead and she keeps talking about when she is going to pass me up. Hopefully she will start that soon. It isn't really fealing like a challange anymore. Come on Grace you can start anytime now.

A Video on Social Media

I ran across a video today on Geekbrief, a shinny, happy tech news blog, that made me think of Grace. She is always going on and on about how people need to use social media outlets like: Twitter, Facebook, Google wave. It is a useful an powerful tool to market one’s self these days. While I don’t really take full advantage of these tools yet, I do agree with Grace. So getting back to the video I saw, it was a presentation by Giovanni Gallucci, a social media expert during WordCamp Dallas 2009, on how to promote yourself effectively. There are some good tip on using the systems that are in place without getting yourself band. Hopefully some of you will find this useful and informative, namely Grace.
