Most sane people have a fear of animating walk cycles. Many events are happening at the same time, and it can seem overwhelming. A single mistake on your first drawing can wreck the rest of the scene. However, the process can be broken down into a series of steps which can go some distance in simplifying the process.

This Flash tutorial covers creating graphics, working with layers, and adding motion, sound, and text to a Flash 8 movie.

The term camera angle means slightly different things to different people but it always refers to the way a shot is composed. Some people use it to include all camera shot types, others use it to specifically mean the angle between the camera and the subject. We will concentrate on the literal interpretation of camera angles, that is, the angle of the camera relative to the subject.

There is a convention in the video, film and television industries which assigns names and guidelines to common types of shots, framing and picture composition. The list below briefly describes the most common shot types. Note that the exact terminology may vary between production environments but the basic principles are the same.

TinEye is a reverse image search engine. You can submit an image to TinEye to find out where it came from, how it is being used, if modified versions of the image exist, or to find higher resolution versions. TinEye is the first image search engine on the web to use image identification technology rather than keywords, metadata or watermarks.

The purpose of The Portrait Group is to share, learn and discuss anything and everything about portraiture, including self-portraits.

Feel free to start discussion threads asking for feedback/critique of your work.

Only portraits of people and animals are acceptable to post here. All other types of photos will be removed from the group photo pool.

Here Portrait refers to any photo that depicts the face and/or adjacent part of the body, or the entire body, whether sharply recognizable ... or artsy, pushing the limits. Here, the face is paramount. Any other body part, by itself, doesn't qualify as a portrait.

Today I spent time digging through the Digital Photography School archives (there are now over 600 tutorials and articles) and noticed that we've covered the topic of Portrait Photography from a large variety of angles. I thought it would be useful to list some of the more popular portrait photography tips all in the one place.

Yesterday I shared 10 Ways to take Stunning Portrait Photography. We covered everything from altering your perspective as a photographer, to experimenting with lighting, to shooting candidly.

Today I want to continue on the same train of thought with 10 more tips for adding a little spice to your portraits.

Today and tomorrow I want to talk about taking Portraits that are a little out of the box. You see it's all very well and good to have a portrait that follows all the rules - but it hit me as I was surfing on Flickr today that often the most striking portraits are those that break all the rules.

I want to look at some ways to break out of the mold and take striking portraits by breaking (or at least bending) the rules and adding a little randomness into your portrait photography. I'll share ten of these tips today and a further ten tomorrow

Below are two photos by world-famous portrait photographer: Elsa Dorfman. Elsa has the same kind of studio, background, lights, and equipment as a lot of folks with more technical skill. Yet those folks aren't portrait photographers and Elsa is. What's the difference? Elsa cares about people. She is genuinely curious about people she has never met and can connect with them in just a few minutes. After a one-hour session, she knows more about her average subject's life than I do about my sister's.

In computing, JPEG (pronounced /ˈdʒeɪpɛɡ/, JAY-peg) is a commonly used method of compression for photographic images. The degree of compression can be adjusted, allowing a selectable tradeoff between storage size and image quality. JPEG typically achieves 10:1 compression with little perceptible loss in image quality.

It seems like everybody has an opinion when it comes to RAW vs JPEG photo formats - myself included. In preparation for the next article in the "Adobe Bridge" series, I'd like to get this out of the way so we can just refer back to it. I won't try pushing one format over the other due to my personal preference, I'm just going to present you with a few images. It's up to you to decide what looks best and if that format fits into your own workflow.
