    Abstract: "No matter what you do on Minecraft, you will need to build some sort of structure along the way. As a nomad, you might encounter places you'd previously explored. It's fun to see your finished structures dotting the landscape, hinting at a previous civilization. If you choose to build a city, you'll be working on multiple structures, and you'll need a lot of materials and easy, efficient methods of gathering. While exploring every feature of the game, you'll need to make sure your basics are taken care of: safety, food, and storage. And above all, you'll incorporate style and your own personal flair. This video will show you how to stay safe while building and how to mass-produce materials, and it will give you tips for making your structures look and feel interesting and complete."--Resource description page.

    Abstract: "If you want to design intuitive and engaging web sites, apps, print materials or products, then you need to know the psychology that underlies people's behavior. 100 Things Every Designer Needs to Know About People explores both the foundational and the latest research in psychology and applies it to design. What grabs and holds attention on a page or screen? What is more important, peripheral vision or central vision? How much information is too much at one time? How do you motivate people to continue on to the next step? What line length should you use if you want people to read text on or offline? What about color? Imagery? Does font type really matter? These are just a few of the questions that the book answers. This video is not just a set of guidelines, but a deep dive into what makes people tick. Dr. Weinschenk shares the psychology research and shows lots of examples so that you can design intuitive and engaging print, web, applications and products that match the way people think, work, and play."--Resource description page.

    Abstract: Holga photography typically features soft focus, vignetting, and visible noise-traits that photographers often seek to avoid in pursuit of traditional digital photography. But these traits also define the unique character of Holga cameras and lenses, which offer a style that is retro-cool, artistic yet not pretentious-and often, a lot of fun. In this ebook, photographer Robert Correll provides an overview of Holga photography, featuring the Digital Holga SLR lens used with various attachments, such as telephoto and wide-angle, and close-up and macro lens sets. With his friendly and knowledgeable voice, he walks you through the basics of how to use the quirks of the Holga to your advantage, and includes several examples that illustrate the creativity at your fingertips when using the camera. Follow along with Robert and you will: Learn how to handle Holga lenses, selecting camera modes, using Live View to monitor your lighting and compose your shots, focusing the lens, reviewing your shots, and making adjustments as you go. Have fun with more advanced techniques, shooting close-ups and macros, using flash, experimenting with lighting, and making movies. Process your own images by performing RAW processing and exploring your options in terms of exposure, color vibrance and saturation, vignetting, and contrast.

    Abstract: This is a book about photographing outdoor sports-not as a professional working for a major sports publication or website-but as a parent or friend trying to capture a great memory. In Photographing Outdoor Sports , author and photographer Alan Hess demonstrates that the key advantage of shooting outdoor sports during the day is that you have plenty of natural light at your disposal, allowing you to use those action-stopping shutter speeds without having to rely on really high ISO settings. Along the way, he covers the basics you need to know about shooting outdoor events: selecting the right shutter speed to freeze the action, picking the aperture to make the subject pop out of the frame, and using the right gear to get close to the action. Follow along with Alan and you will: Learn your way around the gear you need to take great sports photos, such as camera, lenses, teleconverters, and other "extras" Develop an understanding of when and what to shoot Learn the basics of photographing several sports, including softball, football, track and field, and more Explore post-processing techniques to add impact, such as cropping, color correction, and sharpening your images

    Abstract: Have you ever seen a stranger who you instantly knew would make a great photograph? Where the feeling was so immediate and so visceral that there was no doubt that if a photo was made, it would result in a wonderful image?

With Portraits of Strangers, author and photographer Ibarionex Perello will inspire you to move past that fear and take the leap toward making such photographs happen. There are some fantastic images ahead just waiting for you! Follow along with Ibarionex and you will: Learn to confront the fear of approaching strangers for photos, realizing that most potential subjects will be flattered they are worthy of your photographs Learn your way around the gear you need to take great photos, such as cameras, lenses, camera straps and bags, and other "extras" Understand the essentials behind setting the right exposure so you are always ready for that unexpected photo opportunity Develop a practice of interacting with your subjects with techniques like mirroring their body language, moving around them to get the angle you want, and always saying "thank you"

    Series Statement: The Photoshop productivity series
    Keywords: Adobe Photoshop ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: In The Photoshop Productivity Series: The Productive Workflow-the third and final ebook in the three-part "Photoshop Productivity" series by Photoshop guru Dave Cross-Dave teaches you that "workflow" is not nearly as much "work" as it seems, and he avoids the beginning-to-end, step-by-step concept that many people think about when the word "workflow" is mentioned. In fact, he prefers the term "smart flow" to indicate any workflow that takes advantage of the automation capabilities of Photoshop and uses nondestructive, smart techniques to get that work done-and this is what he concentrates on in this ebook. The first concept Dave tackles is working nondestructively, including addressing the use of layers and masks. But why exactly should one work nondestructively? Dave covers that, too, addressing the specific advantages of such a "smart flow": accuracy, creativity, efficiency, and flexibility. Dave then dives deep and tackles vector tools, smart objects, smart filters, and what he calls "smart templates." After working through this final ebook in Dave's Photoshop Productivity series, you will have the skills you need to work smarter-not harder-in Photoshop to get the software to perform what you need, and to do it efficiently, quickly, and nondestructively.

    Abstract: In Composition for Portraiture: Creating Compelling Headshots, Group Shots, and Senior Pictures, Certified Professional Photographer Dan Ablan teaches the composition basics you need to know to improve your portraits. Starting with a definition of composition-what it is and why it's important-Dan then tackles the basic concepts of composition, such as the rule of thirds, negative space, and the use of angles in photography to create more compelling imagery. Dan then dives into portraiture, discussing the best ways to work with your subject (or subjects), and how to "posture" (rather than just "pose") your subjects in order to create flattering images that bring out their best. Additionally, Dan discusses the topic of "environment"-including foreground, background, and leading lines-as well as the best ways to crop your images (in camera and in post-production) to maximize success. The book wraps up with Dan discussing some of the lesser-known composition tools at your disposal (golden ratio, fibonacci spiral, golden triangle) to help you create your best composition when you're both shooting and editing your images.

    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Keywords: Photography of sports ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: This is a book about photographing low-light and indoor sports-not as a professional working for a major sports publication or website-but as a parent or friend trying to capture a great memory. In Photographing Indoor Sports, author and photographer Alan Hess takes you through the basics of shooting basketball in the gym, martial arts at a dojo, water polo inside, and night football games under the lights. Photographing these sports can be a challenge, because you need to use action-stopping shutter speeds without a lot of light. This means using lenses that open as wide as possible and ISO settings that can introduce a lot of digital noise. This book covers all of these techniques to help you get that ideal sports shot in low light-and hopefully have some fun along the way. Follow along with Alan and you will: Learn how to handle low-light scenarios by adjusting your White Balance setting, noting where the lights are the brightest, and watching as the action crosses into different areas Understand the importance of using a wide-open lens with a high ISO setting to get the right exposure for your low-light action shots Explore post-processing techniques such as noise reduction and black-and-white conversion with Silver Efex Pro and the Saturation Slider in Adobe Camera Raw or Photoshop Lightroom

Then he dives into the "How to Shoot" chapter, which discusses how composition plays a role in UrbEx photos; the three major shooting styles in UrbEx photography; general guidelines for camera settings and gear; why you should bracket your shots; and how to approach shooting in the dark (including light painting, using flashes and gels, and using an intervalometer). Following that is the "What to Shoot" chapter, where Sipes discusses organic and synthetic elements present in the UrbEx environment (such as overgrowth, graffiti, paint, and machinery), as well as qualities of light to look for when shooting abandoned structures.

This video covers the process of acquisition of iOS devices using the Device Enrollment Program. It also shows how to enroll devices in Profile Manager and how to distribute applications and books using the Volume Purchasing Program."--Resource description page.

    Abstract: It didn't take Mike Janda, owner of the design firm, RiSER, long to realize that the one-page, line-item priced proposals he sent to clients back in his freelance days would need to "grow up" if he was going to expand his business. Over the course of his 11 years running RiSER, Janda and his team fine tuned their request for proposal (RFP) format and used it to successfully land millions of dollars of business from high-profile clients such as Google, Disney, NBC, FOX, National Geographic, Warner Bros., and others. While no proposal format is perfect-and this certainly isn't the only way to secure new work-the RiSER proposal format is both proven and successful. In Anatomy of a Design Proposal, Janda not only shares his format for creating a successful RFP-with practical advice on scheduling, pricing, and communicating with clients that any designer will find useful-he also gives you a customizable template that you can download and use for creating your own proposals.

    Abstract: You know that web content is the text, images, audio, and video in your website or web application-but how do you ensure that your content is truly effective? Does Your Content Work addresses this key question, illustrating the importance of applying content evaluation as a constant assessment of how well your content meets your goals. In this book, content strategist and user experience expert Colleen Jones explains the essential process of evaluating whether your web content is working. Follow along and you will: Learn how investing time and effort in evaluating your content pays off in tangible ways. Explore the top three action items to evaluate your content's effectiveness: asking specific questions, getting access to analytics, and launching a content-focused survey. Walk through the content evaluation process: asking questions based on your goals, getting answers with the right data mix, and interpreting and acting on the answers. "Improving content quality in large organizations can feel like an uphill battle against processes, data, and operational silos. How, for instance, do you show business partners you're "getting content done" while affording your creative teams the perspective they need to do content right? With the prioritized, action-oriented methods she's laid out in Does Your Content Work?, Colleen Jones simplifies the science of content evaluation in ways that enable the art of content to thrive." -Aaron Burgess, UX Content Director, PayPal

    Introduction to compositing : creating your first composite portrait (2014)
    [Place of publication not identified] : Peachpit Press

    Pages: 1 online resource (1 volume) , illustrations
    Keywords: Composition (Photography) ; Electronic books ; Electronic books ; local
    Abstract: In Introduction to Compositing: Creating Your First Composite Portrait, author and photographer Eric Doggett walks you through the steps to creating your first composite image. He discusses the two composite types to choose from, realistic and intentionally unrealistic, and why you should avoid an "in between" image. He then shares three key tips for capturing successful, simple source images every time-shoot in open shade, photograph from the waist up, and make room for your subject. Finally, he covers how to effectively composite your image in Adobe Photoshop, from masking to refining edges and making final adjustments, to get just the look you want. While the ultimate goal of the ebook is for you to create your own portrait composite, Eric also shares his three source images - the portrait of his subject, a background shot, and a sky that he uses in the composite - so that you can work right alongside him throughout the process with the same exact images.
