You've been playing Midjourney on 'easy' mode this whole time. Let's crack open that long-lost cheat code book and crank it up to 'legendary'. Midjourney without parameters is like trying to paint the Mona Lisa with a roller brush. Time to rediscover those long-lost fine-tipped brushes. By the end of this episode, you'll be wielding AI brushes so fine, da Vinci would be jealous. We're not just moving the needle here; we're painting a whole new canvas. Aspect ratios, chaos, weird, stylize - we're leaving no parameter (stone?) unturned. It's time to create images so stunning, your GPU might just bow in respect. --- ⏱️ Midjourney Fast Hour 00:00 - Intro & Midjourney's New "Editor" Feature 24:26 - Aspect Ratio (--ar) 34:21 - Chaos (--c) 40:50 - Weird (--w) 47:19 - Stylize (--s) 51:15 - Personalize (--p) 58:46 - Quality (--q) 1:04:15 - Repeat (--r) 1:07:22 - Tile (--tile) 1:10:09 - No (--no) 1:15:50 - Stop (--stop) 1:18:50 - Seed (--seed) 1:23:26 - Wrap-Up --- Don't forget to drop us a follow and a review!

In this episode of the Beginner Photography Podcast, I chat with nature photographer Christopher Gilbert to dive deep into the importance of matching your gear with your unique photographic style. Christopher switched from medium format to APS-C, not because of sensor size, but to find a system that complements his creative vision. Through our conversation, you'll learn that the technical aspects, like crop factors and lens focal lengths, should enhance your storytelling, not hinder it. I'll share why mastering the settings that suit your needs can transform your shoots, guiding you to choose tools that truly embody your artistic expression. This is a journey to making every click of the shutter count!The Big Ideas:Embrace Simplicity: Your best photos can emerge from using simpler, more intuitive gear. Less complexity allows more focus on capturing moments.Focus on What Matters: Prioritize your vision and expression over technical perfection. Focus on how the photo feels, not just how it looks.Experiment Freely: Allow yourself to make mistakes and learn from them. Each error teaches you something valuable about your own style.Seek Tools That Fit You: Choose gear that complements your way of seeing the world. Your comfort with your tools translates into better photography.Photography Action Plan:Experiment with Different Lenses: Rent or borrow lenses in various focal lengths to explore how they transform the perspective and composition of your photos. Take the same subject and photograph it with different lenses to clearly see the difference each lens makes to the image.Dial in Camera Settings: Start using aperture priority mode to gain better control over depth of field and understand how it affects your photos. Practice shooting in different lighting conditions to learn how ISO and shutter speed interact with aperture.Focus on Composition: Concentrate on incorporating the rule of thirds into your shots to create more balanced and engaging compositions. Try out leading lines, framing, and the use of negative space to add more depth and interest to your photographs.Explore Post-Processing: Download a reputable photo editing software and familiarize yourself with basic adjustments like exposure, contrast, and color correction. Watch online tutorials specific to your software to efficiently learn various editing techniques that can enhance your images.Resources:Follow Chris on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/fujifilm.christopherLearn What Camera Settings to Use in our free guide!https://perfectcamerasettings.com/ Build Your Dream Photography Business and Keep More of the Money You Earn with CloudSpot Studio.And get my Wedding and Portrait Contract and Questionnaires, at no cost!Sign up now at http://deliverphotos.com/Connect with the Beginner Photography Podcast!

This week, Allan Manzano and Ron Padua of Dynamo Design Group (DDG) teach us about Human-Centered Design.

Ron and Allan share how DDG came to be, what they value as a group, and how they work with their community. DDG was formed about a year ago, around the same time I started this podcast, and so you'll hear both of us talk about our journeys and how we stay grounded as we build.Guest Bios Allan ManzanoAllan Manzano has a 20-year-plus career expanding to household brands such as Sony, Bekin, Roxy, and Gap.

What is aspect ratio and which one should you choose?

SummaryRob DiCaterino joins Daniel to discuss post-production at scale and how to demystify the process for key stakeholders in your organization. Key TakeawaysPost production is an often misunderstood element in an already complex process. Post Production encompasses everything that happens to an asset after the production (photo/video shoot) has occurred.Post Production does include retouching and photoshop work, but also MANY technical steps are included as well. Before an image is ever opened in Photoshop, many technical aspects of the asset need to be addressed or confirmed. A big part of post-production is Quality Assurance - Making sure the images are correct in every way. Post production needs to be involved in the content production process as early as possible. Every decision that happens in pre-production and on-set can have a HUGE impact on post production teams, and often can result in budget overruns or missed deadlines. To keep post-production on time, and manageable, you MUST have a process in place that is followed. It sounds like common sense, but it is often overlooked. A robust process with automations can help prevent errors in a process that moves quickly and simple errors are magnified. SET EXPECTATIONS FOR POST PRODUCTION. This is critical to a smooth process and staying on budget and hitting your deadline. If you're going to promise to the client, provide the resources to meet that promise. Links & ResourcesRob on LinkedInPost Production in Creative ForceGlossaryMetadata Tagging - In content production assets can be "tagged" with text information that helps describe the image or usage. This text info stays with the image and carries through to asset deliveryRounds of Review - An opportunity for a client or stakeholder to review images after editing and make notes or changes. Technical Image Requirements - All of the objective characteristics of an image. Pixel Dimension, Resolution, Aspect Ratio, Metadata, Colorspace, etc. CreditsProduced by: Creative Force - creativeforce.ioEdited by: Calvin Lanz Sound - clsound.netHosted by: Daniel Jester - danieltjester.com

What is aspect ratio?

The greatest comedy in television history became a part of the Disney family when the mega-corporation gobbled up Fox last year, like so many forbidden donuts.

Unlike most of the smart home speakers available today, like Amazon Echo, Google Home, and Apple HomePod, Fiona and Aloha will each feature a built-in 15-inch touchscreen. As an extra perk, Aloha will also boast facial recognition technology, which will allow users to access Facebook (and likely launch other tasks) when the smart speaker's camera lens recognizes them.   ClearStream View Wall-Frame HDTV Antenna Review: Nearly Picture Perfect By building the antenna into a large picture frame, Antenna Direct's ClearStream View is a unique solution to the visually challenging problem of how to hide an indoor antenna. ... the $70 ClearStream View is a large, black picture frame with cutouts for family photos. Concealed in its back is a flat HDTV antenna. The ClearStream View emphasizes design.

The white collage mat, into which you insert personal photos or artistic endeavors, can accommodate nine pictures ranging from 3.5 x 3.5 inches to 3.5 x 5 inches. You could also simply put one large, say, Monet print in the frame.   A Brief History of Aspect Ratios, a.k.a Screen Proportions This month, my Scientific American column tackles the new era of vertical video—videos shot and viewed as tall, thin rectangles, suitable for smartphone screens without having to turn them. It's kind of a mess: Vertical videos look ridiculous on TV sets and computer screens, but traditional horizontal videos play tiny and goofily on smartphones held upright. This isn't the first time aspect ratios (screen proportions) have changed—or have given society headaches. Here's a quick history lesson. (An aspect ratio is expressed as either a horizontal-by-vertical proportion, like 4:3, or as its resulting ratio, like 1.33. The smaller the ratio, the more square the picture; the larger the ratio, the wider the image.)
