When you first begin using your digital photography
camera be sure you have got the correct equipment you
will need before you set out. Owning the proper equipment
is essential whenever you would like to make it
successfully wether you are a beginner or a professional.
If you're going to become a professional with your
digital photography then you had better be willing to
spend a good deal more on equipment than simply somebody
wanting to do this as a hobby. Depending upon what you
would like to do with digital photography it's entirely
up to you as to how much equipment you're going to be
checking out in buying. A professional career in digital
photography might not be what you are looking for do if
you don't have the money for these kinds of equipment
that you will need to have.
Then, if you are merely wanting to enjoy digital
photography as a hobby then I should be able to assist
you out in letting you know what you may require for your
digital camera, accessories and all. For your first
digital camera the important thing is to not spend overly
to much on it. There is no call for in purchasing an
pricey digital camera until afterwards down the road once
you get a good deal more experienced with it. On several
digital cameras you could be capable to even utilize them
as a manual camera. You will merely have to work out how
to adjust all of it's operations. You'll be able to go
out and buy a book for dummies on digital photography as
well, those are always handy to own. They have them for
virtually everything you want to know. Just keep in mind
that owning the proper software for your digital camera
is really significant, it will help you organize all of
the images you have created.
You will need to purchase a bag or case to keep your
digital camera safe and all or any accessories that you
may have bought as well while you're active. Purchase the
camera that you feel best suits your needs and remember
you only require a basic one for beginners. They will
have all of the features you will need just to get going
and with this camera you'll even be able to take truly
great photographs.
Spending more doesn't all of the time mean that you're
buying the better product. If there's not a photographing
equipment store in your city then I suggest you will be
able to simply go online and look up anything you may be
interested in purchasing. You will be able to discover a
couple of really good deals on the internet if you're
wanting to save a little money, who would'nt like to do
that? Or you can ask around, you might have a friend that
can assist you out with your first time purchasing needs.
If there's a local store where you can go in and purchase
digital cameras for digital photography there will be
somebody in there that can help you with any questions
you could have about the product.

Warner Brothers
There was a great segment of "American Masters" on PBS last night on the Warner Brothers Film Studio. The family appeared to be a eclectic mix of personalities and a major factor in the evolution of Hollywood.
I enjoyed it and was amazed at the number of folks of that era still alive, although I have no idea when the segment was filmed.

Get Perfect Job with Video Resume
Now here is something I thought of in the early 1990's while in Grad School at age 50. I used video for many projects in college, and thought this would be a good idea at that time.

Have you ever heard about the video resume? Video resume is great resource for job seeker who wants to show their abilities beyond the capabilities of traditional paper resume. Now the prospective employers can see, hear and get feel for how the candidate presents themselves.
First video resume was introduced in the 1980s but it was not successful because for use and distribution it needed the hard drive. Now the situation is completely different with the modern capabilities of transmitting streaming video via the internet, video resume become very popular. Now video resume are widely accepted by companies throughout the world for selecting the employee. 4quz7a52cn
Video resumes are mainly use by the people who wants to participate in singing and dancing competition. They can easily show their certain skills, such as leadership, presentation, and creative abilities with the help of video resume. But now it is successfully used in more fields such as information technology. Some IT professional make their video resume as a way to showcase both their soft skill and technical skill (such as graphic design, animation, and programming projects). One common mistake that many people make in their resume is to underrate the value of non-technical skills, such as the ability to communicate and work with co-workers. Soft skill is very important it made the first impression on the employer.
How to Create a Video Resume You needs to be very careful when create a video resume, making a video resume has never been easier. As with a traditional resume, a video resume should concisely explain your skills and accomplishments as they relate to a prospective employer.
• The first thing you should do when creating a video resume is found out how you want to present yourself on camera. In other words, what do you want employers to take away from your video? You are in the performing arts; you will probably want to showcase your talent. If you are in business, you may want to demonstrate your leadership or speaking skills. If you are an IT professional, you will probably want to show your soft and technical skill. • Clearly tell why employers should hire YOU over other applicants. Prepare your "elevator pitch" before you sit down to record your Video. Know what your Unique Selling Proposition (USP) is, and deliver it with confidence. • Body Language: A large percentage of human communication is non-verbal, so be aware of what your body language is telling Employers about you! A Video Resume can be unique and professional at the same time, so relax, have some fun and show your personality. You want to project your professionalism and personality with enthusiasm, so smile and deliver your message with confidence.
The novelty of video resumes can provide an advantage over traditional paper resumes. They are best used in two situations: to open doors to a select few employers who you are targeting, or to move forward a stalled phone interview process. Whereas a hiring manager may spend 10 seconds scanning a resume looking for a reason to reject a candidate, a video resume is something different, and therefore could hook a hirer's attention. But, there are disadvantages that you should be aware of before using a video resume. The video resume should not be viewed as a replacement for the traditional resume but as a potential complement, especially if you have strong communication skills and impressive work samples that are sought after by IT employers. A well-executed video resume can provide advantages to certain job seekers, including IT professionals who are looking for a way to highlight soft skills, technical abilities, and portfolio examples not accurately reflected on traditional resumes.

Free Movie Channel
I have the DTV converter box and get 22 channels, free over the air, broadcast in HD. One is a Movie channel called THIS, a subscript of the ABC channel. It shows movies from the 1960’s to 80’s in a wide range of genres. Beach party, horror, westerns, comedies, and many others. Many are kind of campy, but some are major pictures and stars, but 30+ years old. It is entertaining and did I mention, FREE!
