The Function of the Color Name Badge
Friday, October 7th, 2011
Name badges are one of those items that we have become familiar with so much. We have gotten to see great benefits that the name tags have brought to us in modern life as well as in our workplace. Name badges for work are used in all sorts of different cases, such as parties, conferences and special events. In addition, these events can include social gatherings and seminars. In each of these, the purpose of the name badge is slightly different. For example, in the workplace, the name tag usually comes in the form of an identification card that has the user’s photos and some important information that come with the user’s name. Many workplaces have a security element where the employees need to have a certain level of clearance to be able to enter the building, particular floors and even specific departments on each floor. This is especially the case with information technology companies that want to protect their intellectual property.

What’s the Most Popular Thing to Want to Learn How to Draw
Sunday, July 3rd, 2011
So many people want to learn how to draw, but most of them want to learn how to draw different things. Some people want to learn how to draw roses, while others want to draw cars, or people, or sometimes even how to draw shoes.
It really doesn’t matter either way. In order to draw something, all you really need to do is learn how to see it correctly. Once you get the “artist’s eye”, you’ll be able to draw will ease. The secret is being able to render three dimensional things (the world, and the part of it that you want to draw) into a two dimensional thing — the paper. In essense, you need to learn how to see the world flat. That can be a bit of a trick, and it might not want to be something you practice while you are driving, but with a little practice you can turn it off and on anytime you want.

Sigma 105mm Macro is My Favorite Lens
Wednesday, June 22nd, 2011
The Sigma 105mm Macro is one of my favorite macro lenses for DSLR cameras. Optically, I would give this lens a full, then out of ten score. I have owned both the Nikon 105mm f/2.8D Micro lens and the Canon 100mm f/2.8 Macro USM lens. When they are compared to this Sigma, the Sigma gives nothing away to either in optical quality or build quality. In fact, it may even be just slightly better along those lines when compared to those twos. For the money, this is the best 100mm macro lens that has been ever produced. If are on a limited budget and you want a medium length macro lens, then do not hesitate to get this Sigma lens. This lens will not let you down in terms of both build quality and optical quality. For the price that you are paying, you simply get a bargain on this lens.

Help! I Need Pictures!
Tuesday, June 7th, 2011
There I was, I had a big presentation due at work and I was stressing out. My job depended on me presenting the big quarterly report and my slideshow was boring. The presentation needed something more than just the words and charts I had. I needed to make it exciting and engaging with pictures. I surfed around the internet and I found a bunch of websites that had pictures but they were all protected or cost money. I was so lucky to find an incredible website where I could get free stock photos. Why would I pay for something when I could get it for free? I got some really great pictures, they were exactly what I needed. They had everything I needed and it was all free and easy to find. These stock photos saved my job! My presentation, with the addition of the pictures I didn’t have to pay for, was much more exciting. Now I use this great website for everything. Whenever I have a presentation at work, or I’m helping my son with his homework, or making a website, or writing an article, I just turn to my favorite website for pictures and find what I need.

Tokina 12-24 Review – in Comparison to Nikon 12-24 Lens
Tuesday, May 31st, 2011
This will be my honest Tokina 12-24 review. I feel that the Tokina is better than the Nikon 12-24mm in almost every aspect. However, I do find that the zoom was a bit too stiff for me.
In terms of autofocus, the Nikon is slightly faster than Tokina. If you are an amateur though, you will not be able to notice the difference. Chromatic aberration is very well controlled and you will not be able to see it unless you zoom in to 200%.
Here I will not be posting any samples because there are just way too many of them and most of them are handheld. So, it will not be a fair comparison. The real takeaway here is that if you are trying to save money by getting the Tokina, you have made the right decision. I would recommend this lens for anyone looking for a solid ultra wide angle lens.

Atlanta Film and Theatre Casting Calls
Thursday, February 3rd, 2011
For many people considering getting into acting, Casting Calls in Atlanta might be one of the more popular ways to find work. Yet there are casting call for both theatre and film. Some people might wonder the difference between stage acting and film acting.
Obviously if you’re getting into stage acting, your performances will be done live in front of a group of people. So there must be much more memorization of script for stage actors. Another main difference for stage acting is the actors must be able to project their voice and movement and facial expressions must be a little bit exaggerated to allow those in the audience to be able to tell what emotions you are trying to portray.
Film acting is much more internal, emotions and facial expressions have to be very realistic. When filming a movie you want to make the story come to life. One part of acting that will seem much more convenient is the fact that there are many breaks in filming, certain shots need to be at different locations, this gives the actors time to memorize a small portion of the script and there isn’t as much pressure to get it right the first time. If for some reason you forget a line, they can simply edit it out and try again.

Do You Really Want Your Town Walls Ugly with Graffiti?
Tuesday, October 5th, 2010
I really never did like graffti art unless the wall was meant for an artist to express his work because sometimes there is someone out there that can really do a remarkable job at expressing some art that really looks good . But as for the ones that just do it to tag there area have they really ever took it into consideration on how ugly they were making their town look and how well the best word I can find to use is stupid it looks . Not to mention the cost it takes to clean it up and then you ask why they don’t have enough money to help more of the hungry or homeless? Because they are spending it cleaning up the mess you created. And I say that because I knew people who did this and asked that same thing, Do I like it? No it looks really ugly.
