A few brief words on why it sometimes pays to have more hands in the kitchen when cooking up a creative project.
I have slowly been making my way into the video realm and have quickly realized that I need an easy-to-use audio setup for filming on location.

If that description hits home, and if you are a female, you want to read on about the Peak Design & The Roam Collective Photography Scholarship.

In my look at the new features of ACDSee Photo Studio Ultimate 2021, I was excited to see the inclusion of color wheels and tone wheels. I first started using this style of editor in video production; it’s a big part of what gives stylized video like Mad Max its distinctive look.
