Ornament is a Photoshop plugin. Its output works with PTViewer and QuickTime 5s MakeCubic PPC; both are available at no charge.

Its quick-and-dirty 360 panoramic photography on a near zero budget -- no strange lenses or image stitching needed.

iMovie 3D Cube effect 1.0 is a full featured and advanced iMovie plug-in which takes your clip, and wraps it around a cube spinning in 3D space. the effect additionally supports fold-to and unfold-from effects. You have control over the cubes size, 3D zoom effect, and rotation speed.

Note: this is a technology demonstration. it shows what we can do, but leaves most possibilities unexplored (e.g. more than one direction of rotation, animated lenses, multiple 3D shapes etc). this was done intentionally.

Carrara 6.2.1 is an effective video animation tool which evolves from nearly a decade of MetaCreations' 3D development experience with products such as Ray Dream and Infini-D. Carrara will provide a comprehensive, high-end feature set coupled with a blazingly fast rendering engine and revolutionary work-flow approach, SmartFlow. Carrara will enable the ultimate creative freedom for 3D artists and designers, as well as 2D creative professionals moving into the world of 3D. Carrara will become a significant component in MetaCreations' family of 3D products that includes Bryce 4, Poser 4 and Canoma.

The MetaCreations' product family contains all the tools necessary to create rich, professional quality 3D objects, environments, human figures and animations. Carrara will contain the most important features found in many high-end 3D packages, such as a hybrid Ray Tracer, advanced shader editors, multiple modelers, real time Metaballs, particle systems, 3D light sources, lens flares, motion blur, key framing, physical effects, deformers and much more.Carrara will introduce a revolutionary workflow called SmartFlow that will significantly shorten the learning curve for new 3D developers while providing maximum productivity to the power user.

SmartFlow provides an intuitive, progressive interface environment that will allow users to "walk" projects through a series of production steps, with each compartmentalized area featuring the tools required to complete any task necessary. Storyboarding capability within Carrara will enable the fast and effective pre-visualization of animations. Physical effects will allow users to apply characteristics such as weight and bounce to modeled objects for incredibly real animation effects. Carrara will also support the industry standard MetaStream file format to allow the creation of high quality, compact 3D objects for streaming over the Web.

DOFC is a handy calculator for the depth of field, near focus, far focus and hyperfocal distance, no matter what camera you’ve got.
It’s the perfect companion for the Apple PowerBook or iBook you probably carry to store and touch-up your digital images.

DOFC is a tool that will make a nice addition to your shooting set-up, whether you shoot for soft Bokeh in portraits or ultimate sharpness in panoramic images.

Depth of Field, or DoF for short, is the distance from the camera which appears in focus. I use the word appear for good reason: Technically, there is only one single distance which is in focus. But as the human eye is easily fooled, there are adjacent areas in front and behind the subject which appear to be in focus as well.

Sharpness depends on the circumstances, but in general people see things as being sharp if a single dot doesnt expand too much. For 35mm film, the Diameter of Least Confusion, DoLC for short, is 0.029 mm -- if a single dot gets bigger than this on your slide or negative, people will see it as out of focus. Other formats have other DoLCs, and its not brain surgery to calculate them.

But its a major pain.

Everything outside this field will get blurred in the final picture. The blur can be used to make people or subjects stand out but sometimes blur is unwanted, as in landscape images. However, not knowing the DoF makes it difficult to get the right amount of blur. Theres much to read about this, please note the links I provided on the left if youre curious abut the DoLC. If you dont care, as I do, no problem.

There are tons of lists where you can look up the DoF for any given lens/f-stop combination, but with digital still cameras, everything changed. As lenses are specified with the same focal lengths as for 35 mm cameras, none of the former lists will work for your digital cam. The smaller sensor size of digital still cameras makes the focal length of your 35mm lenses longer and the DoLC gets tighter.
The Depth of Field Calculator

Knowing everything about DoF and DoLC doesnt help me in any real world situation. Having used my Nikon 35mm cams for years, I have a good feeling for all of my lenses. But the D70s changed everything.

Even worse, switching between 35mm film, Nikon DX, 1/3" and 2/3" video cameras requires a lot of paper to be carried around to calculate the DoF in any given situation. Carrying my Apple iBook works for me, as all the glass and lighting are a lot to handle on location. Hence I remembered my roots as a programmer and made this little Widget.

The solution
This Widget is a handy calculator for DoF, no matter what camera youve got. It is the perfect companion for the Apple PowerBook or iBook you probably carry to store and touch-up your digital images. DOFC will hopefully make a welcome addition to your shooting setup. If you have any questions regarding this little thing, please contact me.
