Evolution of Awesome!!!
I am always keeping track of what’s happening in the world of movies, especially when it comes to stunning visuals and cutting edge technology. Just recently RottenTomatoes.com posted and interesting article spotlighting 20 films that exemplify the very best in modern cinematic visual effects. These visual effects were made possible by a little piece of software. No, it’s not Photoshop, even though Photoshop is widely used in the industry. It’s a rendering program developed by those genius’s over at Pixar, known as RenderMan. This application has allowed us to peer into the future and witness a man made of liquid metal, it allowed a man to see things in bullet time, it let us witness one of the worst sea tragedies ever, and even made us all fall in love with a little rusty metal box with a personality. One can only speculate as to where we will go from here. All I can say is I can’t wait to see what’s next. Read the full article and see the entire list here. Oh, and yes I have seen every movie on the list.

Viewing and Basking in your Image
When I’m done working with an image, I like to sit and admire it (hey, I spent six hours working on it, I should). To do that, I hit the Tab key, then hit the F key three times. This hides all of the panels and toolbars and lets you see the image by itself surrounded by black. To get back to regular mode, press the F key and the Tab key one more time.
