Awesome Picture of Jayson Werth
 |
As I’ve been honing my photographic skills, I’ve started to notice the great photography that surrounds us more and more. While perusing the Phillies website today, I noticed this crop of Jayson Werth. I love grain in photos. While film grain is my true love, digital grain has found a place in my heart recently. A clean chip and a nice lens will let you make some really nice crops, and this one is no exception. Read on...
Testing The Emergency Blogcasting System
This is only a test. Do not adjust your, uhhh, computer monitor. If you are reading this, it means that I can now blog from my iPhone. While no great feat for master blogheads, it took a little work for me to figure this out. It’s great. I love to blog and I love my iPhone. Now nothing can stop me from telling you cool stuff.

Red Vapor in Your Eyes? Let Me Give You Visine
Back in 2005 when Jim Jannard took off his brightly colored and presumably shiny Oakley CEO hat and set out to start a revolution in digital cinema, most of us scoffed, writing off his intentions of building a 4K tapeless camera at an “affordable” price point as the ludicrous ravings of a millionaire seeking his extra 15 minutes. We ate our words a year ago, at NAB 2007, as the first Red Camera footage was put on display in a short film by mega-director Peter Jackson. As the year went by, and the fledgling company started to ship the camera in small doses, again, we started to feel the rumblings of a revolution as Stephen Soderbergh proclaimed his love for the new format.
But now it’s NAB 2008. So you’d think maybe this Red thing would pick up and start getting adopted.
Nah. Read on...
IM From a Friend: Questions People Need Answered
The following IM came over google’s Gchat right now from a good friend. I had to start loading the video for an exciting upcoming film (seriously, if I could tell you you’d be excited) and this pair of knuckleheads opted to ignore my BRB warning. I laughed hard enough to share it with you.
well you should be working and cleaning heads and duplicating HD dvds and making film transfers and making coffee and knitting jami a scarf made of cat hair and marshmallows and worshiping the lord and applying a powerful exfoliating cream to your face and neck and always taking care of yourself

New Site is Up, Let’s See if it Actually Works
The new site is up and running! This is the third iteration of this site ever since I bought the domain last summer. Poritsky 3.0! Of the three sites that I’ve made in the past, this one stands out in many ways and I really consider it my first “professional” webpage. I relied on a few simple crutches to get my page out the door. Don’t get me wrong, my old designs were wonderful for what they were, and they were extremely difficult for me to build. This time around however, I set some simple rules for myself, creating both obstacles and guidelines within which I could create a site that made me as proud as I am right now. I’d like to share my thinking with you now, if you’ve got the time to listen. Read on...
