The New Idaho Airships, Inc. Logo

Apr 25th, 2008 by Leo Geis

We ended up building our own 3D blimp since it’s next purposes are within Flash applications. I lathed a Hindenburg-modeled envelope…less the pyrotechnics, of course. Continue Reading »

“Dynamic Range” v. Exposure Value (”EV”)

Apr 24th, 2008 by Leo Geis

Several questions (mostly from PAPA Members) have come in over my recent reference to the Contrast Ratio of a 32 bit image. Continue Reading »

Aerial Photograph In Idaho: What Exactly is That?

Apr 23rd, 2008 by Leo Geis

Many folks believe that aerial photography pretty much involves being able to squeeze a camera into an aircraft cabin, then cruising around and pointing that camera at various things. After the work is done, the Aerial Photographer may just go out for a cruise in his Ferrari…or perhaps shop online for shoreline property on Lake Coeur d’ Alene. Continue Reading »

AS3: The “target” Property of an Event

Apr 12th, 2008 by Leo Geis

AS3: Literals

Apr 10th, 2008 by Leo Geis

I really couldn’t get my head around Literals for an unreasonably long time. Simply reading that Literals are values “…that appear directly in the code” really didn’t work for me, and probably won’t for most aerial photographers, who have likely suffered the same number of hypoxic hours at altitude and a few too many high-G turns looking through a 400mm lens…as I have.

AS3: Events

Apr 10th, 2008 by Leo Geis

If you’ve read our Event Framework post you should have a fundamental understanding of how Events in AS3 are structured. If you are just learning ActionScript 3, you’re probably ready for a little clarification on the organization of Event resources. Continue Reading »
