New Photoshop Technique

I learned a new photoshop technique today that I really like! It adds a cool “memory” type look to photographs. Here is my example, it didn’t take all that long. Mainly just layer masks, a displacement mask and a few other tricks.

Football Filming Tomorrow

The Pixar Touch– Finished

Just finished reading The Pixar Touch.
What a ride! There is so much unique and interesting history behind the walls of Pixar. Here’s a brief summary (really brief, the book is like 310 pages). It started in a privately funded college, then George Lucas bought it for Industrial Light and Magic. It wasn’t making money and [...]

Next Summer– Italy

So some of the people I know from Tech are doing the Italy Program this summer (the one I’m planning to do next summer). They’ve posted a tons of pictures online, so I figured I would share a little of where I will probably be spending six weeks of my life next summer! I am [...]

Follow Your Dreams

“If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven composed music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well”

Automatic Updates Restart– STOP

So as many people who have windows knows, it has an extremely annoying tendency to tell you that it needs to restart after downloading updates and then displays a progress bar till it restarts, or you can click Restart Later. If you click Later, Windows decides that it needs to tell you again in fifteen [...]

Yesterday I talked about the layers of Company Culture, today I will continue by discussion by looking at ways to embed culture into the company (as outlined in my Organizational Behavior Class). Once again, Disney will be my primary example pool!

Company Culture

So I will probably be writing quite a few posts from my Organizational Behavior class because I find it valuable information to any career path I follow in the future. Today we talked about culture and how organizations create and transmit culture. Organizational Culture is “the set of shared, taken for granted, implicit assumptions that [...]

Back from the Lake

I’m back in Atlanta after a weekend at the Lake (minus Sunday Morning at Church). We spent it mostly with just family on Friday and Saturday, then Sunday we had a few of our friends come over. We broke out a new tube today…. CRAZY is all I have to say about it! You have [...]

Book Read

Here is a book that is a must have if you are interested in making contacts, networking and just making good business relationships. I read it in basically a day (minus a chapter or two I read the next day). It is entitled Never Eat Alone by Keith Ferazzi. Several great chapters and tons of [...]

Break from Lake

I’m back at home tonight from the Lake to get ready for church tomorrow morning (rather than having to be up at 6:00 am tomorrow and drive back from the lake we just came back tonight). New Stage Design to be unveiled tomorrow at The Torch, should be pretty interesting to see how it plays [...]

New Blog Design

So I finally figured out that you can change the heading picture on your blog (thanks to Pastor Scott), so I created this one last night. It shows some of my interests (film, disney, Georgia Tech and the picture of me represents Traveling since it was taken in New York).
Also, my phone call went absolutely [...]
