| Super Kids: Waimalu's Multimedia Class
Today Malika Dudley introduces us to not just one Super Kid, but a group of them. We met this class of GT, or gifted and talented 6th graders, right here on Sunrise. They're learning about multi-media technology and came to see us to learn more. But it all started when Malika visited their school and discovered a gold mine. Thirteen Super Kids, all in one place. .
Mobius Amsterdam 2007: Opening reception and disclosure
Last month Microsoft invited me and 21 others to the annual Mobius event where we ave the opportunity to provide feedback on the Windows Mobile platform, exchange ideas with other enthusiasts, and see some future plans for Windows Mobile. This year the event is being held in Amsterdam and I arrived this morning. I slept a bit to catch up on some sleep, but may have a tough time going to bed at a reasonable hour (it is actually 1 am right now). The first event was an informal gathering for drinks, snacks, and introductions. Nine of the 23 attendees this year are new to the Mobius group. The attendees and their sites are listed below: Rafe Blandford, All About Symbian Paul O'Brien, MoDaCo.com Nghia Nguyen, PDA France Arne Hess, The Unwired Guido Bonati, SoloPalmari.com Remo Knops, Pocketinfo.nl Eldar Murtazin, Mobile Review Philip Berne, InfoSync World Shane Chiang, PPCSG.com Paul Matt, Phone Daily.com Jenneth Orantia, Roam Magazine and Gear Diary Andrew Shuttleworth, Windows Mobile in Japan Atushi Koyanagi, HTC Fan Mauricio Freitas, GeekZone Matt Miller, ZDNet Mobile Gadgeteer Ryan Block, Engadget Jason Dunn, Pocket PC Thoughts Michael Oryl, Mobile Burn Judie Lipsett, Gear Diary Eric Lin, PhoneScoop Vincent Nguyen, Slash Phone Dieter Bohn, WM Experts It was great, as always, to meet new friends and talk with old friends at the reception.
After Effects CS3 Professional
Adobe Bridge CS3 can now play image-sequence stacks as animations, allowing Photoshop image sequences to play in large preview windows before being imported into After Effects. If you have a series of sequentially numbered frame files in a folder, selecting the folder will preview the contents as a movie. Flash CS3 integration The new version of After Effects is highly interoperable with Flash CS3. Import Flash (SWF format) files as scalable vectors with alpha channel transparency, and use them to easily create 3-D layer animations. The rasterized vector shapes—along with the alpha channels from Flash—are preserved in the same manner as Photoshop or Illustrator layers. This is great for motion graphics producers who do most of their animation work in Flash. After Effects also lets you render videos out to Flash movies, along with exported cue points.
