Andy Taylor spoke with Sony Creative Software Product Manager for Sony Vegas Pro 10 Matthew Brohn this afternoon about some of the new features and updates in the Video Editing program. One of the most unique featured added is the ability within the program to edit videos shot in Stereoscopic 3D. This is becoming a trend in specialty productions and Sony has this capability to edit and fine tune the process in the program.

Matthew shared with Andy some of the features involving the Open Effects architecture for plug-in effects that should see strong support from developers and writers of effects plug-ins. Audio is also another major part of the Video Editing program with integration of Digital Surround Sound 5.1 and effects which can be worked into the Master Edit list. Speaking of that, if you have used previous version and wanted to know if your edit list can be supported, the answer according to Matthew is yes. Sony engineers took an edit list from 1999 and imported that list into the current Vegas Pro 10 with no problems.

Tune in for the segment with TechtalkRadio’s Andy Taylor and Sony Creative Softwares Matthew Brohn and find out how you can try out Sony Vegas Pro 10 for 30days Free and have access to support for question during your trial. http://www.techtalkradio.com/software/sonyvegas10.html

May the Fez Be With You

Andy Taylor at TechtalkRadio has posted an interview with The Force behind http://www.fezorama.com Artist Jason Rodgers talked with Andy about the original idea for the e-commerce site that showcases Custom Fez Creations and how in 1990-91 it really wasn’t viable to just promote over the BBS. Several years later, the artist had not given up on the thoughts of creating his Fez designs and put them on a website he created.

Jason also shared hurdles and concerns when he started up the site but also ways he was able to develop using Open Source software. The idea for success lays in the fact that Jason understands that the market is not only going to come from the surrounding area but also from a worldwide audience of potential buyers. Using the Social Networking of Twitter and Facebook not only allows the marketer to connect with the potential shopper but also form friendships with like minded artist.

Whether it be a different Fez or a complete custom for your event or happening, Jason Rodgers has carved out a pretty strong following and it’s all due to his craft and to the power of the fez.  Listen in to the interview with Jason at http://www.techtalkradio.com/internet/fezorama.html

Photoshop Achieves One Million Fans on Facebook

Andy Taylor talked with Maria Yap of Adobe Systems on the Milestone announcement that Facebook had surpassed One Million Fans on the popular Social Networking Site Facebook. Maria is the Director of Product Management for Adobe Digital Imaging at Adobe Systems and told TechtalkRadio’s Andy Taylor ““We weren’t expecting this to happen so quickly!”  The company is still in celebration mode from it’s 20th Anniversary of the Photoshop product as well as the launch earlier this year of the latest version in its CS5 Line. Adobe also released last month the Adobe Photoshop Elements and Premiere Elements latest versions.

Maria told TechtalkRadio that the company will be having some fun with the Facebook page to celebrate the fan base with giveaways, slide shows of work created with Adobe Photoshop and even more content for tips and tricks in using the powerful software. Andy noted to Maria that Adobe Photoshop has become synonymous with the idea of taking an image and “fixing” it. Often you hear in Television Shows and Movies a character will say “we’ll throw it in photoshop and they’ll never know”
