Over the past couple of weeks I’ve been trying to get my magazine developer’s brain around Adobe After Effects. As the web becomes more and more of a video-based platform, publishing has been abandoning well-researched written presentations for quick video tid-bits. Since I has a face for radio, it is time to leave journalism to just the pretty people.
Anyway, I’ve found a lot of cool uses of after effects to bring Illustrative design elements to title sequences.

I know I promised “media solutions” weeks ago in a post, but I’ve not been emotional up to it as of late. With WSJ closing its prestigious boston bureau last week and some personal toss-ups along the way, I’ve had to re-evaluate a lot of industry factors. I still believe that news reporting and development are essential to democracy, can be accomplished effectively on a living wage, and can even save the industry. I also believe that “magazine” publishers are probably the best poised to roll with the new economic realities of the industry. (magazines are in quotes for a reason that I’ll get to later.) Rest assured I may be lazy, but I am diligently so.
Now for the round robbin’…
Okay in case any of you were wondering, yes I am still obsessed with Ugly Betty, or Yo soy Betty, la fea, as it’s known around these parts. (It’s in primetime on Univision again.)
