Upgrade the Built-In Camera Audio for Your Favorite Canon Cameras With This New Add-On Mic

While it’s never anyone’s first choice, recording audio for your films or video projects directly from your camera's built-in microphones can be dicey work. Best case, it sounds ok but not great. Often it sounds horrible and is unusable. Even with advancements in internal audio recording technology over the years, it is still best practice for most filmmakers and videographers to use external audio recording methods. One step up from built-in audio is adding a better microphone to your camera. If this feels right for your needs, you’re in luck—especially if you’re shooting on Canon cameras, si

Film Quote of the Day: The ‘Harry Potter’ Line That Captures the Heart of the Entire Franchise

My childhood was shaped by the Harry Potter books and movies; they carried me through primary school and into my last semester of grad school. It feels like almost every other year of my life has brought a new Potter property, which is staggering. Now, with adaptations coming to HBO , it feels like my adult life is going to be steeped in the wizarding world as well. But that's okay with me, because I believe these captivating fantasy books hold important life lessons kids need to learn, and adults need to be reminded of daily. And maybe most of it is wrapped up in one quiet speech from Albus D

Harry Potter: 5 Things the HBO Series Needs to Get Right to Win Over Fans

This new Harry Potter series has a lot of things going for it. The idea of a project that can capture much more than the movies is great, and using cutting-edge technology to sell the magic is also exciting. But there are also a lot of risks. The books and movies are so beloved that anything less will be hated, and the financial commitment to making TV the size of about 7 books is staggering, so it has to be good. If HBO wants to satisfy die-hard book purists while hooking a new generation of viewers, the new Harry Potter series must get these five elements right. Let's dive in. - YouTube www.

Human-Centered Design: How does design shape the way we live, feel, and connect?

To say that we design "for people" seems like a fundamental premise of architecture. However, this statement presents a problem: people are not a homogeneous category. Human-Centered Design invites us to question whom we observe, listen to, and represent when making design decisions. Through an interdisciplinary conversation, we will explore how physical, sensory, and social needs influence architecture and interior design, and how these shape our way of living, feeling, and connecting. Drawing from the fields of health, air transport, education, urban planning, and architectural representatio
