ColoRotate - Adobe Photoshop CS4 Plugin

ColoRotate is an Adobe Photoshop CS4 plugin that allows you to select many different ranges of colors for your projects. This plugin allows more control over foreground and background colors through fine-tuning with sliders, and easily creating meaningful palettes. I like how ColoRotate allows you to login with your Google account rather than having to remember yet another login and password. This plugin/site is best described: "With ColoRotate, you can work with colors in 3D, in real time, and in a way that matches how our minds process color."  The web version has been online since Spring 2009, and they just took the Photoshop plugin out of beta a few days ago.

I took a few screenshots of the web version, check out the video below as well.

Livin' The Life

This is Zoey. She lives the life, scratches on the door when she wants to go outside and within 30-40 seconds the door is opened. The screened-in porch provides her shade when she wants it. The backyard fence is short because she's short. And naptime never ends. She gives kisses because she's livin' the life.

Take Off

I shot this a few months back as I was leaving New York to go home and visit the family.
I applied a tint effect to some of the video at 10% opacity to give it some color and change throughout. Below are screenshots of the video within Final Cut Pro.
