Female and male Fashion Photography is all about nurturing your innovations

The existing fashion industry on its larger part is being shouldered by fashion photography. The glamorous advertisements and pictures of fashion magazines like Vanity Fair, Vogue or Allure is all an upshot of fashion photography. Actually, this sort of photography has developed into a genre that is completely devoted to exhibition of vestures and other fashion items.

For those of you aspiring for a career in fashion photography, things won’t be straight. A break in the fashion market is never going to be a piece of cake. Your hard work would rarely pay, if you suffer a dearth of imaginativeness. However, in case you possess that sense of perfect image you got to have a good start. Fashion photography today is symbiotic to the aesthetics in clothes and fashions being embossed with exotic locations and story lines, has carved its own niche.

What do you need to be a fashion photographer?

Well, the first thing you need to have in order to be a fashion photographer is an extremely creative bend of mind. Your eye should be able to discern every aesthetic detail of the shot. A thorough knowledge of cameras is also substantial for good photography. Besides, you need to plan the technicalities like the light, distance and other perspectives well enough.

The key is to visualize your set up, so as to communicate your ideas better. At the same time be sensitive to the moods of the models and interact with them freely – the kind of expression you are looking for. Fashion photography offers you diverse openings like options for freelancing or to get employed with fashion journals, newspapers, designers or fashion houses.
How do you begin with fashion photography?

Fashion photography is all about advertising and selling clothes. Your first and foremost motive as a fashion photographer should be to sell your images to the fashion editor. To establish your reputation in fashion photography, you need to begin with setting up a portfolio. The portfolio is your first selling point and it should be your best work.

In order to set up a portfolio you need to hire a model. You can get in touch with your local modeling agencies for that. It is not always that hiring a famed model would always do well; rather it would be better to hire someone who can perform expected before the camera.

Maintaining favorable relationship with models is necessary. There are models who would act tough with you as psychology plays an important part. Now, if you have intentions to shoot from home studio supply a changing room for them. In case the model turns unhappy, your photo session will be a complete waste of time. Consider the suggestions of your model, no matter how frivolous it may be. This will make them feel comfortable and you can continue your work easily.

After creating your portfolio, you should try every means to get exposure. The next thing for you to do is to set up an online portfolio, that is your personal website. It would be better to attach your previously published work to use them as a statement with the picture editors. Try to be professional and establish a workable relationship with all the fashion editors with whom you would work.

Most often the fashion photo editors hunt for concise images, which could convey distinct ideas. You should be able to create unique settings for you fashion representation. As you gain a collection of fashion images, you can start submitting them to fashion agencies.

All over the world there are women’s magazines, which are eager to acquire hundreds of stock shots every month. There are some larger agencies, which have buyers across the world. Some of these agencies can even re-sell your images in different markets.

There are numerous roads to enter this so-called glamorous field of fashion photography, you just need to explore the aesthetics impersonated in fashion.

Movie Maker Vista File Format Support

We've had some questions about what file formats are supported by Movie Maker on Windows Vista. Hope this helps!

Movie Maker can import a wide variety of video and audio formats. The format refers to the container which contains the audio and video streams. The audio and video streams are encoded using a codec which determines how the audio or video is compressed.

The following summaries the key format containers that Movie Maker supports:

Video

• DV-AVI (AVI)
• Windows Media Video (WMV, ASF)
• DVR-MS (Windows Media Center Vista Premium and Ultimate only, DVR-MS)
• MPEG-2 (MPEG-2 Program Streams on Vista Premium and Ultimate only, MPG)
• MPEG-1 (MPG)

Audio

• WAV (WAV)
• MP3 (MP3)
• Windows Media Audio (WMA)

When a file is imported in Movie Maker, Movie Maker will open the container format and then use DirectShow to determine what codecs are required to decode the audio and video streams. Just because the format is supported, for example AVI, doesn’t mean the required codecs are installed on the machine. Given the wide range of codecs available this can cause confusion. If the codec required to decode the video is not available, the file will not be properly imported. For example, if only the audio codec is available for a video file, the video will be rendered as black.

One of the most popular container formats is AVI. AVI files can contain a wide range video codecs, for example, the AVI video stream maybe encoded with MPEG-4 video. Assuming you have installed the proper video codec, Movie Maker will import this content. Movie Maker will always attempt to import the media file and if the proper DirectShow filter is registered, the content will be imported.

Most solid state video cameras include the required codecs that can be used by Movie Maker to import the file. Devices use a wide range of file formats and codecs so it’s difficult to provide a detailed list of supported device and formats. Typically, if the video file can be played in Windows Media Player, Windows Movie Maker can import the content. If you cannot playback the file in Windows Media Player, check to make sure you have the proper codecs installed on your machine. If the codec is not installed on your machine, download the codec directly from the manufactures web site. It is recommended to only install the codecs that you require. Also keep in mind that DRM protected content cannot be imported into Movie Maker.

When publishing your movie from Movie Maker, Movie Maker can publish video files to DV-AVI, Windows Media and Windows Media HD. Movie Maker provides a set of predefine Windows Media profiles targeting the most common scenarios, but you can also create your own custom profile. On Vista Premium and Ultimate, you can also publish your videos directly to DVD.

Living with Vista

You may have seen news coverage around the Vista launch (link, link) about a special beta program called ‘Living With Windows Vista’. 50 families from around the world participated in the program, which involved them using Windows Vista in their home as their primary PC. The brave families were beta testing builds of Vista as early as Beta 1. Microsoft employees met with them periodically to check on their progress, and listen to what they had to say about Vista. Some families were recruited because of particular interests they had (like music, or photos).

Photo Families
There were several ‘photo families’ in the US, and some of our team members went along to visit these families as part of their regular meetings with Microsoft. These families were recruited specifically because of their use of digital photos and/or video. These families were of particular interest to our team, since they were likely to be using and providing feedback on the Photo Gallery, Movie Maker, and DVD Maker in Vista.

Send a Smile, Send a Frown
One interesting aspect of this program was the ‘Send a Smile’ utility. This is a small tool that was installed on the families’ machines, and let them quickly send comments to Microsoft at any time. The comment could either be something that they liked (a smile), or something they didn’t like (a frown). The utility sent a screen capture of whatever the family was doing at the time, along with their comments and the smile/frown. This feedback was constantly reviewed by the product teams at Microsoft. This allowed us to get immediate feedback from the families at any time of day or night, and required very little effort on the part of the families to report something that either delighted or frustrated them.

So what did the families like?

• The hover effect over thumbnails
• Fix functionality – especially red eye removal
• One-click e-mail with automatic photo re-size
• Quick and easy import

Where did they run into problems?

• Tags: Some families didn’t understand, or didn’t use the tagging features
• Gallery vs. Explorer: Some families were confused by the fact that there were two places (Photo Gallery and Pictures Explorer) that they could find and interact with their photos and videos. They didn’t understand the differences, or why there were two places.
• Save As: The save model in the Photo Gallery took some getting used to. Most families initially expected to find a ‘save as’ feature, and didn’t realize that their photos were saved for them automatically (as well as a backup).

Making a Difference
All of the feedback we received from the families was valuable, but there are several areas where we can point to the finished product and demonstrate that this program made a measurable difference. One of the families was having trouble burning CDs from within the Photo Gallery. They had discovered how to perform this operation from the Windows Explorer, but the entry point wasn’t obvious enough in the early Photo Gallery builds. As a result of this feedback, there’s now a top level ‘Burn’ button in the Photo Gallery task bar. Several families also had issues with AutoPlay when they would plug in their cameras to import photos. They didn’t always select the best AutoPlay option the first time through, but early builds of Vista remembered this setting by default, and automatically performed this option in the future without asking. Based on the feedback from these families, we were able to change the default behavior for AutoPlay to give all users a better experience!

All in all, this was a very successful program. Not only did we get some valuable feedback that helped make the product better for millions of users, but it also gave our team members the opportunity to visit users in their homes, and talk to them first-hand about the impact that the software we build has on their lives (both positively and negatively). Thanks to all of the families who participated in the program – you made a difference!

Getting Spacey

The folks here at Microsoft who work on digital photo software and services are pretty passionate about their photos. So you can imagine that it was a little frustrating for us that Microsoft didn't offer a truly world class way to share the photos that we took on-line. After Windows Vista shipped, a group of us set about fixing that.

Windows Live Spaces is a great service for social networking. It lets people create their own home page on the web, link to friends, host gadgets and express their personalities, but it hasn't been a great place to share photos. Today, we took a solid first step towards changing that.

With the release that went live last night, we've significantly improved the photo experience within Spaces.

The first thing you may notice is that if you have a photo gadget on your Spaces home page, it should look a bit tighter. Here are some before and after shots to illustrate:

On the left is the gadget before the latest set of changes and on the right, after. As you can see, we moved the player controls, or transports, up from under the photo and overlaid them onto the photo itself. Don't worry, they will fade away after a few seconds so they don't get in your way, and then return when you move your mouse over the photo.

OK, pretty subtle. But wait, there's more! When you open up a photo album by clicking on the module, it used to be that the transports lay off the bottom of the screen on a standard sized monitor, so you had to scroll if you wanted to look at other photos in the album. Getting both the full photo and the transports in view at the same time involved playing with the scrollbar and some fine motor control.

As these two screenshots illustrate, we licked that problem, as well. On the left is what the page used to look like, and on the right, the new page. You'll notice that the entire photo and the transports are fully visible without scrolling at all. As a bonus, we open the comments automatically, so you can see when people leave you compliments on your fine photography. (And thanks to Pmatt Freedman for shooting those beautiful bees you see in the examples).

Finally, we knew it was hard to find an album you were looking for just by scanning a list of names, so we created a page that gave you an overview of all the albums you have on your Space. Just click the Photos link from the gadget or the View all albums link when viewing a photo album.

From here, you can re-arrange your albums, delete them or just find the one you're looking for. (Hint: the first album in your list is the one that will appear on your Spaces home screen gadget, use this page to choose it).

This was only one small part of the overall Spaces release. Read the Spaces blog to learn more about the other features that were included in this release and get yourself a Space, if you don't already have one.

Movie Maker 2.6

Hi, I’m Bret Ahlstrom. I’m a program manager on the Digital Memories team at Microsoft. Most recently, I was in charge of Movie Maker 2.6, which is available for download here.

If the Vista version of Movie Maker is working for you, you’re all set, please don’t install Movie Maker 2.6.

Some machines with certain graphics cards (cards that don’t support the Windows Device Driver Model) are unable to run Vista Movie Maker at all. Movie Maker 2.6 was developed specifically to ensure that those machines could run a version of Movie Maker. No other bug fixes or feature enhancements were included in this release.

What is Movie Maker 2.6
Movie Maker 2.6 is simply the XPSP2 version of Movie Maker (version 2.1) brought forward to Vista with as few changes as possible. Movie Maker 2.6 is NOT an upgrade from the Vista version of Movie Maker or even an upgrade from the XP version Movie Maker. It does not replace Vista version of Movie Maker, it installs side-by-side with it. It is not designed to be able to run concurrently with the Vista version of Movie Maker, and it can cause problems if you try.

So why did we ship it?
Although the Vista version of Movie Maker does not have major changes to the user interface, we did make significant performance improvements to support things like High Definition video. These changes involved tying Movie Maker’s rendering engine directly to the graphics card and driver.

However, this change opened up the possibility that machines without sufficiently powerful graphics cards (cards that don’t support the Windows Device Driver Model) would not be able to run Movie Maker. At the time we made the decision, we were fairly confident that this would not be a big issue. Unfortunately, by the time Vista was complete, it became clear that there would be quite a few machines that would be able to run Vista, but would not be able to run Movie Maker. We didn’t want to leave those users out in the cold, so we decided to release a version of Movie Maker that wasn’t tightly tied to the graphics hardware. Movie Maker 2.6 was born.

Who Should Use Movie Maker 2.6 (and who should NOT)?
People who have Vista machines with Vista Movie Maker already installed, but who can’t run Vista Movie Maker are the intended audience of Movie Maker 2.6.

When you launch Vista Movie Maker, if you get an error that says, “Windows Movie Maker cannot start because your video card does not support the required level of hardware acceleration or hardware acceleration is not available”, then Movie Maker 2.6 is for you. If you don’t get this error, the version of Movie Maker that shipped with Windows Vista is the best version for you.

3 Technologies That Will Change Photography

(This is a modified version of a post I originally wrote for Waggleverse, another blog to which I contribute)

Generally, when people think about the game changers in the digital photography world, they think about improvements in sensors (more megapixels!) or lens quality improvements. If you go to the trade shows, you’ll also see a lot of activity around moving smarts and processing onto the camera (e.g., using face detection before the snap to decide where to autofocus the lens).

There are definitely advances going on all the time in those areas, but I’m going to take the slightly contrarian position that, at least in the consumer space, we’re close to maxing out the innovation in those domains. Honestly, the pictures my camera take today look pretty good. We’ll see some advances in how they handle low-light conditions and some other weak areas, but overall, we’re getting close to good enough.

Instead, here are three technologies that I believe may lead to a sea change in the way that people think about and use photos in their daily lives:

Mini Projectors

At January 2007’s CES, Microvision announced an ultra-miniature full-color digital projection display about the size of a Thin Mint (and yes, that’s an actual Thin Mint in the picture if you don’t believe me).

Who wants to watch a tiny projection of a photo? Well, you do!

How often have you huddled around the digital screen on a camera back for a quick post-picture re-enjoyment session? Or passed a camera or cellphone around a table to show off pictures of your vacation?

Face-to-face photo sharing is an emotionally appealing, satisfying experience that lets you tell an interactive story and see the reactions on the listeners faces. Unfortunately, print-less photography and web-based photo sharing has largely wiped this phenomenon out. With the advent of the ability to carry a projector built into your cell-phone, the dynamic changes and the types of photos that people take, as well as how they share them, will change, too.

Liquid Lenses

Cameraphones promised to change the way people thought about picture taking by making camera carrying ubiquitous. But let’s face it, the pictures your cameraphone take are very often very poor quality. They look grainy and out of focus and all your 2x digital zoom is doing is cropping an already low resolution photo down smaller, then stretching it.

There are a host of reasons that the photos taken by cameraphones lag in quality: sensor quality and lack of a flash are two big ones, but lack of a meaningful optical zoom is more important than you think. If what you’re trying to take a picture of is far away (as it often is) and you can’t zoom, you end up spending much of your valuable photo on the thing around the thing you want to take a picture of. Unfortunately, due to the size constraints of a cameraphone and the traditional structure of a zoom lens (two lens set apart, with the distance between them being a factor in the magnifying power of the pair), we have seen very few cameraphones with much optical zoom capability.

Along come liquid lenses. As reported by Nature Photonics, using electrical impulses to control the curvature of the meniscus on a drop of liquid, it’s possible to create a variable focal length lens much in the way the human eye works. This will eventually allow cameraphone manufacturers to create reliable, responsive zoom lenses at sizes that make sense for a cameraphone, vastly widening the situations in which the cameraphone can be an effective replacement for a standard point and shoot.

These lenses haven’t made it into production yet, but several companies are in a race to productize their prototypes.

GPS

No, this isn’t just for geocachers looking to document their success. Imagine you’ve got a GPS built into your camera such that every photo is stamped with the exact location it was taken. I’m not even going to mention the most obvious use (viewing your photos laid out on a map) (oops, I mentioned it). Instead, let’s focus on what new scenarios it opens up:

• You’re at a wedding, and want pictures but without the hassle of actually taking them yourself (maybe you want to be in the picture instead of behind the camera). Don’t bother exchanging e-mail addresses with everyone there, just do a search for the time and location of the event and start enjoying the slideshow.
• Want to know what it’s like to be at the Super Bowl from home? Go to any photo sharing site and search for cameraphone pictures taken now at the Super Bowl stadium and get a real-time multi-perspective view of the event unfolding.
• You’re a newspaper publisher looking for photos of a political rally (or riot). Just name the time and the place, and you’ve got the photos.
• Wondering what a particular lake or beach is really like (not just what the travel agent’s picture says it’s like)? No problem, click the spot on a map and start flipping through all the pictures taken there. You can even order them by season, so you get a sense of what the weather’s going to be like at that time of year.

Sure, all that could have happened if people applied tags manually to their photos, but for many, many people, they don’t and they won’t because it’s just plain tiresome. Automating this process adds a critical piece of metadata to every photo, making it relevant to day-to-day lives.

Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe

Last night, Art Wolfe (one of Microsoft’s Icons of Imaging) was on the Microsoft campus to share some of his work with us, and talk about his new television series on PBS: Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe. Art Spent about an hour walking us through a slideshow of some of his amazing photos. The thing that immediately struck me was that Art is not only an accomplished photographer, but he is also a very knowledgeable naturalist and educator as well. He uses his photography as a tool to educate and inspire people about issues impacting the environment, society, and cultures around the world. What better way to educate viewers about the political battles surrounding the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge than to share spectacular photos of the wildlife and landscapes found there?

Art doesn’t merely document the locations he visits, he creates works of art from them, finding interesting patterns and colors that many of us would either take for granted or miss entirely. We saw more examples of this as Art talked about his show ‘Travels to the Edge with Art Wolfe’. In the show, a film crew follows Art to the ends of the Earth as he goes about his work. Art shares his thought process and describes the techniques he employs as he creates images from all over the world. We were fortunate enough last night to have Art screen a future episode of the show for us about his visit to native tribes in Ethiopia who display amazing and unique adornments.

I went to the lecture expecting to learn more about photography (and I did), but it wasn’t what I expected to learn. I didn’t learn about what f-stop to use or which lens is best in a given situation. Instead, I learned about the impact that photography can have on individual people, and the world. Photographers on Art’s level don’t just take spectacular images, they tell a story with them. It's not just about technical skill, but also about knowing your subject.

If you’re in the San Francisco Bay area, Art will be giving the same presentation on Friday 5/25. More information can be found on Art’s website.

Spaces Update

A few weeks ago, we released an update to Spaces that included what we thought were some improvements to the photos experience within Spaces (described here). Some of the changes we made were a hit, like opening up comments by default so you easily see what people had to say about the photos you posted.

Some of those changes, though, were not so much of a hit. For example, in an attempt to make the photos “pop” visually, we added a border around the photos. Unfortunately, we didn’t take into consideration the diverse themes that Spaces users have adopted. In many themes, the thick white border looks bulky and distracting.

Second, in an attempt to ensure that the photos appeared on your screen without forcing you to scroll around, we shrunk the size of the photos a bit. However, the way we did it ended up resizing the pictures poorly and made some people’s photos appear choppy.

Well, we’re listening. As of today, we’re introducing a couple of fixes to these problems that we hope will restore the beauty of your photo viewing experience. We’ve reduced the border to a tasteful couple of pixels and tied it into your theme, so it should blend nicely. As they well know in art galleries, a tasteful frame can enhance the quality of a photo, but it should never distract from it.

We also increased the size of the display area for photos and made it more closely match the proportions taken by typical cameras, significantly reducing the amount of distortion. Internet Explorer 7 users will see an even greater increase in quality, as we took advantage of the more advanced “bicubic” interpolation it offers (an innovation that we hope all browsers will follow).

In the meantime, we’ve been working hard on a host of additional improvements to the photos experience, but those aren’t quite ready to show off yet. Thanks for staying with us and stay tuned!
