“Under the microscope, I found that snowflakes were miracles of beauty; and it seemed a shame that this beauty should not be seen and appreciated by others. Every crystal was a masterpiece of design and no one design was ever repeated., When a snowflake melted, that design was forever lost. Just that much beauty was gone, without leaving any record behind.” ShouldFoundLostBehindsGoneForeverRecordsDesignMiracleShameLeavingMasterpieceAppreciatedCrystalsMicroscopesSnowflakeBeauty Fades Author:Wilson Bentley
“The industrial real estate market completed one of its strongest demand cycles in history as several factors ignited the fire. For projects coming on line in 2005, record-low interest rates during the design phase 12 to 18 months prior provided additional incentive for development and absorption.” RealInterestLinesRecordsFireDesignMonthsDevelopmentDemandProjectsLowsRateFactorsCyclesStrongestPhasesEstatesIncentivesInterest RateAbsorptionReal Estate Market Author:Brian Gordon
“The success factor is a combination of intuition and honestly, it's mostly only intuition. A design business is inherently dependent upon the intuition of its chief designer. Luckily I have a track record that if you show me five pairs of shoes I will almost always pick the one pair that will sell the best. It's just a gift I have for mass taste - a link with what people want in a certain moment in time.” PeopleIfsWantMomentsShowsCertainRecordsFiveDesignTasteMassPicksSellsShoesTrackIntuitionHonestlyFactorsChiefsCombinationDesignerDependentPairsLinksShow MeMoments In TimePair Of ShoesTrack Record Author:Monita Rajpal
“Only the bad artists of the nineteenth century were frightened by the invention of photography; the good ones all welcomed it and used it. Degas liked it not only because it provided an accurate record, but because the snapshot showed him a means of escape from the classical rules of design. Through it he learnt to make a composition without the use of formal symmetry.” MeanUseUsedArtistRecordsCenturyDesignPhotographyInventionFrightenedAccurateCompositionFormalNineteenth CenturySymmetrySnapshotsDegas Book:The romantic rebellion: romantic versus classic art Source: The romantic rebellion: romantic versus classic art
“The relationship with actor and director is probably closer to theater, in that, when we record the dialogue, there is very little in the way of the creative collaboration - no cameras, lighting or even locations. Then, once we record, the post process is very similar to the post flow in filmmaking - editing, sound design, mixing, etc. At the end of the day, it's all about storytelling and honing in on a tone by developing a rhythm and structure that suits the storytelling.” WayLittlesEndsActorsProcessSoundCreativeRecordsDesignDirectorsFlowTheaterCamerasStructureDialogueStorytellingSuitsRhythmDevelopingPostsToneThe End Of The DayEtcCollaborationFilmmakingEditingLocationLightingMixingHoningSound DesignCreative Collaboration Author:Glenn McQuaid
“We usually start by asking the collaborators to submit a couple of ideas. Then, Larry and I will sort through all the submissions and choose the ones based on what we think will add most to the collection. Once the scripts are written, the stages are: rehearse, record, edit, sound design, foley and finally, the mix.” ThinkingIdeasSoundRecordsWrittenStageDesignCoupleAskingAddScriptsCollectionsSubmitSubmissionEditsLarryCollaboratorsSound Design Author:Glenn McQuaid
“I'm gonna design my own fleet of trailers. No! I'm gonna record an album like Jennifer Lopez. It'll be an acoustic version of K.C. and the Sunshine Band.
