Every once in a while you get asked to do something totally different.

I've been working as a graphic designer for more than 25 years and in that time, I've done a lot of different things: print, packaging, corporate identity, exhibition, video, interactive, and so on. These days, I mostly I ...

One of our cool new products for this year is the Zi-6 Pocket Video Camera. It's designed for shooting video and even better, it makes getting the results out of the camera and onto the internet, where people can actually see it, really easy. It's not as sophisticated ...

5 Years of Carved Pumpkins - A visual history

undisclosed@1000words.kodak.com (joelrosen) — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 01:00:00 EDT

Anyone whose read my previous posts probably knows that I have a tendency to go a little overboard with projects. I do my research and I bring as much as I can to whatever it is that I am doing. Carving pumpkins is no exception.

As a kid, I grew up with the typical kitchen knife pumpkins, ...

Yet Another Diet Coke and Mentos Experiment

undisclosed@1000words.kodak.com (joelrosen) — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 01:00:00 EDT

At this point, I don't think we can call them experiments anymore. Unless you've been living in a cave for the last two years, you should already know what happens when you drop a Mentos mint candy into a bottle of soda. Nonetheless, it seems we never tire of seeing it.

Ridin' the Jackrabbit

undisclosed@1000words.kodak.com (joelrosen) — Mon, 07 Jul 2008 01:00:00 EDT

Readers of my previous posts will know that I am something of a split personality when it comes to cameras. I am an admitted ad-am but I am also a huge fan of point 'n' shoot cameras. While my dSLR is a sophisticated device, ...

Project Runway?

I have a confession to make. I am an advanced amateur. Yes, we can be annoying. Sorry, we can't help it. Before you go somewhere, you toss your little, sleek point 'n' shoot into your pocket. Maybe take it out and get a shot or two of the kids playing or whatever. We Ad-Ams, no way. We're thinking ...

Panoramic Portraits

undisclosed@1000words.kodak.com (joelrosen) — Thu, 10 Apr 2008 01:00:00 EDT

Many newer digital cameras have a cool, new feature for creating panoramic images. The software helps with shooting three overlapping pictures and then it automatically 'stitches' the three pictures together to create one seamless 'superwide' picture. It works great for those scenic overlooks which ...
