CINEMA 4D FLAG 03
The wind deformer on a plane primitive is probably the easiest way to create a flag in MAXON's CINEMA 4D. There are several ways to accomplish a "flag" look, but the simple primitive shape of a plane and a standard wind (aka : flag) deformer working together provide an animation that even the newest user can understand. Many people consider adding it to an object, but you can add it to a spline as well. ...Read More »

Creating Animated Backgrounds
I always say that these days, we live in an instant gratification society, and what I mean by this is that we want everything and we want it now. Beginners and advanced After Effects users alike are quick to buy animated backgrounds to use in their compositions, because it is quick and easy to do.

DOOZLA fun drawing
There are plenty of options for digital illustration on the Mac, some are too cheap, some are too expensive, and some - like Doozla are just right. When it comes down to illustration with your kids, if you're like me - you go for crayons and pencils. But if you want to give them a fun way to draw on the computer, take a look at Doozla from makers of ComicLife. ...Read More »

Wading through the iPhone 3G hype machine
It has been almost a year to the day that I purchased my first iPhone, or iPhone 1.0. Yes, I was caught paying the hefty sticker of $599, caught using AT&Ts slow EDGE network and, yes, caught in the frenzy only Apple is capable of building. In other words, I was caught hook, line and sinker. Read More

Colored Pencil Sketch Effect in Corel Photo-Paint
In a recent time consuming search for a tutorial on how to create a water-color sketchy effect, I found only Photoshop compatible plug-ins. I am using Photo-Paint X4 which is capable of using many Photoshop filters; I tried them but none were really what I wanted. So I messed around within the program and I did come up with a sort of sketch effect, which if I am honest, isn't really what I wanted either. Read More
