![]() These security films, if applied properly, can also provide protection for vehicles. Another key application for security window films (safety window films) is on large areas of "flat glass" such as storefront windows, sliding glass doors, and larger windows that are prone to hurricane damage. Some companies have even experimented with bullet ballistics and multiple layers of security film. The most robust security films are capable of preventing fragmentation and the production of hazardous glass shards from forces such as bomb blasts. Typically applied to commercial glass, these films are made of heavy-gauge plastic and are intended to maintain the integrity of glass when subject to heavy impact. ![]() Security films are applied to glass so when the glass is broken it holds together, preventing dangerous shards from flying about, or making it more difficult for an intruder to gain entry. Spectrally selective films act by blocking certain wavelengths of the sun's infrared radiation and reject heat without reducing natural light. Silvered film may also be employed to the same end. Such films also reduce the amount of visible and ultraviolet radiation entering a window, and are often applied to reduce the fading of the contents of a room. If the windows are designed to provide heat energy in the winter and keep heat inside the house (typical of cold climates), the low-emissivity coating should be applied to the inside pane of glazed windows. To keep the sun's heat out of the house, a low-emissivity coating should be applied to the outside pane of glazed windows. Ceramic window films cost slightly more but provide a substantial increase by reflecting and absorbing infrared radiation (IR or radiant heat). ![]() The ceramic and metallic window films usually cost 50-100+ percent more than regular window film but they can reduce energy transmission by as much as 80 percent. Modern window film technology has created ceramic window films that are non-metallic and do not contain dyes that can result in discoloration. Such films are usually dyed or metallized (which can be transparent to visible light) to convert incoming solar radiation to infrared radiation, which is then rejected back through the glass to the exterior. Heat rejection films are normally applied to the interior of flat glass windows to reduce the amount of infrared, visible light, and ultraviolet (UV) radiation entering the windows. The colorful film on these windows gives the building a unique appearance while providing privacy and insulation from the sun. Window films are an extremely cost-effective method to reduce heating and cooling costs in existing buildings by reducing the amount of heat transfer through glazing. Window films are a retrofit upgrade for existing glass that can be used to address problems inherent to glazing, including: There are many different grades, shades, colors, and thicknesses of available window films built to offer solutions to a variety of challenges. The International Window Film Association, founded in 1991, provides unbranded information about window films. Window film is normally installed by professional service companies, but there are also DIY kits widely available. Window films are generically categorized by their construction components (dyed, pigmented, metallized, ceramic, or nano), by their intended use (automotive, marine or architectural), by substrate type (glass or polycarbonate), and/or by their technical performance (privacy, solar control, safety and security). It is usually made from polyethylene terephthalate (PET), a thermoplastic polymer resin of the polyester family, due to its clarity, tensile strength, dimensional stability, and ability to accept a variety of surface-applied or embedded treatments. Window film (tint) is a thin laminate film that can be installed on the interior or exterior of glass surfaces in automobiles and boats, and as well as on the interior or exterior of glass in homes and buildings. For the musical group, see Tinted Windows (band).

So in terms of quality I think it did a great job. The LANDR master had more punch and clarity in the high end and when comparing the two versions I noticed my own master had some muddy frequencies left that were gone in LANDR’s version. ![]() It really put an extra layer of quality on top and I was actually disappointed about the quality of my own self-mastered version.Īudio Comparison between unmastered, self-mastered and mastered by LANDR The LANDR version had much more impact and low end than my own master. I have to say I was surprised by the result! It did a much better job than I initially thought was possible for an automated mastering service. The free version generates a 192kbps mp3 file and doesn’t provide you with extra mastering options, but it’s a good way to test out the service. LANDR allows you to master 2 tracks for free each month. It’s an electronic progressive house track which I mixed with plenty of headroom (10dB) left for mastering. So I signed up for a free account on and uploaded my track. It worked out all right, but I was curious how a service like LANDR would handle it. I put the track to rest for a month, so I could master it with fresh ears because I didn’t have the budget to hire a mastering engineer. I recently mastered a track I produced a while ago, a bad idea, I know. Watch Luke and Brent collaborate on a song created from scratch using LANDR-curated sample packs augmented with their own vocal and guitar parts.LANDR has been around for a while now, and I finally decided to try it out for myself.

With this in mind, it’s possible to create music from start to finish using LANDR’s sample content, collaboration tools, and mastering and distribution capabilities. This has culminated in a rounded online ecosystem of tools with a ‘just-add-DAW’ ethos. With an established background in online, machine-driven products, MixGenius have gone on to expand into other areas such as distributing masters, as well as developing creator tools such as sample libraries and audio plugins for the DAW. Fast forward eight years, and the concept of entrusting certain audio tasks to algorithms is no longer the radical prospect it used to be.

![]() If necessary, our retinal specialists can perform retinal surgery to treat diabetic retinopathy. With early diagnosis and treatment using retina injections and sometimes laser treatment, it is possible to prevent diabetic vision loss. Diabetic retinopathy is a complication of diabetes that is a leading cause of new blindness in those aged 20-74 years old. While there is no cure for macular degeneration, using retina injection treatments our retinal specialists can often slow the progression of the disease and prevent further vision loss after you’ve been diagnosed. Macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss, and it can be scary to learn that you could lose your sight. Over time, this can lead to detachment of the retina if left untreated. This retina degeneration causes small, lattice-shaped tears in the edges of the retina. Lattice degeneration is common, affecting 6-8% of the general population. ![]() We treat different retinal diseases, including lattice degeneration, macular degeneration, and diabetic retinopathy. We invite you to give us a call or stop by our office to talk with us about the eye care services our eye doctors and retinal specialists provide. Our office is centrally-located in Edison, providing care to Metuchen, Plainfield, and Woodbridge Township. Matthew Wheatley work together to bring you state of the art eye care that you can trust. Our practice includes retinal specialists who specialize in retinal surgery. Our doctors provide a number of eye care services. We know that you have many choices of retina centers for ophthalmology care, and we’re glad you’re considering us. Slight complaint about the charging system.It won’t go out in public with you, but for naked use on the living room couch and bedroom while within touching distance of my sub, it works great. The remote control function works perfectly well for bedroom use.(Which is part of what makes it an awesome prostate stimulator, but y’know.) While the XXL Egg Plug has some squish and give to it (and I freakin’ love their Egg Plugs), the REVO Extreme is rigid throughout. For reference, my sub inserted a super-soft XXL Egg Plug from Square Peg Toys (Diameter, 2.6″) as “warm-up” before using the REVO Extreme – and we still had to take the REVO Extreme’s insertion slowly because of the sheer rigidity of the toy. That 2.16″ diameter feels like a 2.16″ diameter. The silicone isn’t plushy, and it isn’t flexible. With that in mind, the REVO Extreme is also very rigid. ![]() A prostate massager over 2″ is virtually unheard of. It’s not AS huge as some of the anal stretching toys found by some companies, but it’s well-outside the range of any prostate massagers. Here’s the quick bullet-point version for those of you who need it here and now: There’s a full review over the Nexus Revo Extreme to be had over at Kinkly. In essence, it’s a pretty high-end prostate massager that includes a ton of features that slimmer prostate massagers have had – but now in a much thicker body. In addition to being made of silicone (yay!), it’s remote-controlled, includes a vibrating motor in the textured base, and includes low/high speeds of rotation within the tip of the prostate massager which can either go clockwise or counterclockwise. The new prostate massager from Nexus, the Revo Extreme, pretty much solves that problem. It’s probably one of the minor annoyances of playing with a self-identified “anal stretcher” a lot of the “made for the average person” slim toys just really aren’t a great fit anymore. ![]() Even with a lot of enema kits and slimmer dildos, the base has to be “held in” somehow (usually with a hand), or the entire item will just slide out of his butt. I’m not going to lie with a lot of the prostate massagers that my sub and I play with anymore, the prostate massagers tend to, uh, “slip” outside of his body without a whole lot of effort. If you can’t see the foam anymore, add it back. This gives the waves depth! If you happen to paint over the shadow line of the wave paint it right back in. ![]() The more uneven the lines the better! Once dry it can be layered by adding watercolor on top if that's what your heart desires. I use a lot of diagonal dots, lines, and dashes to create the ultimate sea foam. This product is a very thick, opaque white that can be watered down or applied right out of the jar! The seafoam is the icing on the cake! Using a small brush, add little dots and lines onto the seafoam using Dr. This should instantly add the illusion of depth to the painting! If you like the look of a wet sand line add a thick medium brown line under the bottom wave, it really adds another layer to your work! Then, use a darker aqua green for the wave in the water. Use a brown paint where the wave overlaps the sand. This is really when the painting starts coming together!Īdd a thin dark line under each wave to create a shadow. Martin’s Bleed Proof white to create the lines for the waves. Using a flat brush that's damp, lift off the paint to create the lines for the seafoam waves! If the paint does not lift off easily you can use Dr. Bring the paint down to overlap the sand and get that beautiful color transition! Next, begin to paint your ocean! I use a light aqua green color and start at the horizon line painting another graded wash. ![]() One for dirty water when rinsing the brush and the other for clean water to add to the paint. Pro Tip: Use two water containers when painting with watercolor. Once the sky is dry slowly peel off the washi tape across the horizon pulling the tape away from the sky! Boom! Again use a graded wash, this time darker at the bottom and fade out to white toward the horizon. While the sky is drying, start painting your sand. If the sky is not dark enough add the second layer of paint once the first is dry! Add water to lighten the color rather than white paint. Start at the top with a sky blue color and blend lighter to almost white at the horizon. A graded wash gradually blends the color from dark to light. ![]() Now for the best part, the painting! For my sky, I use a graded wash. Pro Tip: If using a heat gun or hair dryer to dry the painting faster, heat causes the washi tape to become less adhesive, which will in turn cause the paint to bleed underneath the tape. After the border is taped and covered, add a horizontal piece of tape just below the horizon line. I've had many artists ask what brand I use and for me, the Scotch Expressions brand works the BEST! It doesn't tear the paper and I have way less paint bleed underneath!īe sure to press the tape firmly into the paper. Tape the border of the Polaroid using washi tape. Try to avoid drawing the horizon line across the center of the page. You can also draw in the wave line about an inch up from the bottom! This divides the paper into three sections for a good composition. Pro Tip: I also use the kneaded eraser to pick up regular eraser crumbs, it keeps my paper from smudging.ĭraw a horizon line using the rule of thirds! For this painting, I drew my horizon about an inch down from the top. If the pencil lines are too dark use a kneaded eraser and press it over the lines to lighten! To draw the inside square, draw a line a quarter inch in from the top and two sides. Lastly, the last line one inch in from the bottom. The inside measurement is a 3-inch square. I use the same measurements as the vintage Polaroid photographs, the outside of the Polaroid measures 3.5 inches across and 4.25 inches down. Using a pencil, lightly draw a Polaroid frame on your watercolor paper. Not to mention, this tutorial is the perfect way to sit back and relax! ![]() Who's ready for some relaxing beach time? I know I am! My name is Katherine and I'm from I'm super excited to share my step-by-step process AND tips on how to create a Polaroid painting of the beach.įor me, painting the beach is how I connect back to the ocean even though I live so far away!

I schedule a WEDDING EDITING DAY and a WEDDING BLOGGING DAY on my calendar the week following the wedding. ![]() After I get home and unload my cards, I don’t think to myself “Well, that one is done, whew! Now I can relax for a few days.” Heck no! It’s almost like a race with myself to see how quickly I can conqueror this wedding! I have to be this way because if I wasn’t, I would already be drowning in piles of editing and CD burning and gallery uploading! So here are some ways I make this happen:ġ. Your workflow and post processing time should be JUST as much of a priority as the wedding day itself! When I shoot a wedding, I have to have a certain mindset. However, if you’re full time and shooting digital, it should never take over a month. I have heard of digital photographers who take over 2 months to get their clients their images! I understand some photographers work full time AND have families to keep up with, that it understandable. If I shoot a wedding on Saturday and then I don’t have it edited by the time the next Saturday rolls around, I then have TWO weddings to edit in one week. If you are shooting weddings every weekend, it becomes incredibly easy to fall behind. I want to WOW them with how fast I get their images back to them! and 3. I want the end of my client’s experience to be just as awesome as the beginning. We’re shooting digital and this makes it totally possible to have a rapid turnaround time. So before I start listing out all of these steps, you should know that if I’m shooting weddings every weekend, my wedding clients will have all of their wedding images waiting for them on their online gallery by the time they return home from their honeymoon. I have tweaked a few areas and I’m loving it! I will explain my workflow and the programs I use and then I’ll give you a few tips that have helped me! Ok? Ok! ![]() ![]() I was so unhealthy in college! But that was the only time I had to run my business! I made it happen but there was no structure to it and so it took forever!!! Recently, since I’m not graduating college and I’m not planning a wedding, I have had the time to revamp my workflow and give it a little makeover. ![]() Customize the outputs of inventory reports by filtering transactions.
