Recent Project Photofly YouTube videos from users

2011-09-23T02:31:50Z

Autodesk’s Project Photofly is still going strong, and to prove it they’ve posted on their own blog a nice assortment of videos showing what users have done with it.

One of the convenience features of the Photo Scene Editor, a small application that you use to work with the Project Photofly web service, is that it will create and publish a video to YouTube for you. It uses the camera location of each of your submitted pictures as a key frame and combines them to make an animation. Several users have leveraged this capability to share what they have been able to create using Project Photofly.

Some impressive stuff there, and I can’t wait to see how Autodesk works this into their professional products.

Japan Earthquake: Six Months Later - Alan Taylor - In Focus - The Atlantic

2011-09-13T17:46:41Z

Yesterday, the world commemorated the 10th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks on the United States, but Sunday had another significance for Japan. It marked six months since the massive earthquake and tsunami on March 11, a date now seared in the country's national consciousness. At 2:46 that afternoon, a 9.0 magnitude earthquake struck Japan offshore, triggering a tsunami wave of up to 10 meters (33 ft) that engulfed large parts of northeastern Japan and also damaged the Fukushima nuclear plant, causing the worst nuclear crisis in decades. The current number of dead and missing is estimated to be 22,900. Gathered here are some recent images from the region, including 12 before-and-after photo pairs (starting with photo number two) that you can click to see the difference six months can make.
