Orderly offers a fresh visual interface for iPhone task management - Published on 09/26/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Tekton Technologies today announces Orderly 2.0 for iOS, that offers a fresh visual interface to manage tasks on iPhone. Orderly is designed based on how the human mind visualizes tasks. Featuring a breath taking interface, the To-Dos are displayed on one of three shelves using Apple's bookshelf metaphor: High Priority, Medium, and Low. Users can instantly view all their To-Dos, expand and close them with pinch gestures, edit items, change their priority, and swipe to complete or delete.

San Jose, California - Tekton Technologies today is pleased to announce Orderly 2.0 for iOS, a major update to their productivity app that lets users manage to-dos using a unique visual interface on iPhone. Orderly is designed based on how the human mind visualizes to-do lists, and interacts with users in a way that is natural for humans to deal with to-do lists, combined with the power of iPhone gestures.

The update now includes:
* Cloud sync with DropBox, that allows your lists to be kept in sync across iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices
* Move a to-do list between Home/Work views just by dragging and dropping over the Home/Work navigation bar
* Now we have an option for Manual prioritization of to-do lists, for those who do not need automatic bumping up of to-dos to a Higher priority
* Usability enhancements

Once a to-do is created, it is displayed on one of three shelves using Apple's bookshelf metaphor: High Priority, Medium, and Low. Users can instantly view all their To-Dos, expand and contract them with pinch gestures, edit items, change their priority, mark them as complete, or swipe them to delete. The app includes two full-screen bookshelves, Home and Work, allowing users to keep To-Dos posted according to priority and location.

The extraordinary simplicity, practicality, and design of Orderly sets it apart from the many To-Do apps available. Having concluded that pinches and swipes are ergonomically more efficient than taps (which require hitting a target button), Tekton Technologies has employed the fundamental principles of human factors to design a To-Do app that is highly efficient, instantly informative, and accommodative of the daily needs of real people. With it's intuitive gesture based commands, the learning curve for the app and all its features is about ONE minute.

Feature Highlights:
* DropBox sync across multiple devices
* Create a To-Do instantly, with a tap
* Great usability using simple iPhone gestures
* Pinch to zoom in/out, to have a quick glimpse of the To-Do
* Automatically prioritizes your To-Do based on the day
* Option to have manual prioritization
* Long press to delete or drag and drop to move a To-Do to a different priority
* Swipe right to mark an item completed or swipe left to delete an item from the To-Do
* Supports two boards or views. A Home view and a Work view
* Complete To-dos With 1-Tap
* Once a To-Do is completed, it moves automatically to the archives,and you can browse through them when needed

Gestures:
* Pinch to zoom in/out to get a quick glimpse of To-Dos
* Swipe right to mark to-dos as completed
* Swipe left to delete to-dos
* Long press to delete or drag and drop to move a To-Do to a different priority
* Long press to drag and drop to move between Home/Work views

At launch in portrait orientation, the app opens to either the Home or Work page (reversed with a page flip transition). Sticky notes go on one of three shelves, depending on priority: High, Medium, or Low. Users are free to invent their own color-coding for notes, as the app supplies all six of the standard sticky note colors (pale yellow, pale green, pale blue, pale orange, pale red, or white). Completed notes can have their priority set from the Scheduling Menu as a category (High, Medium, Low), or according to a Due Date (user selectable from the date picker). Also available is a Recurring category that can be set for Daily, Weekly, etc., reminders.

The colored, rectangular sticky notes are displayed three to a shelf, or nine to a page. Scroll dots indicate that more notes are viewable on that shelf by scrolling horizontally. Touching any note causes it to grow to fill the entire screen. The notes are clean and spacious holding just six items in full screen mode (before scrolling) and three items in shelf display mode. When enlarged, notes may be edited, and swiping left to right across any item brings up a Completed button beside the item. Touching the button dims the item, but does not delete it, check it, or cross it out. Swiping right to left brings up a Delete button, which removes the item with a text slide animation off the page.

The app includes many customization options including backgrounds, textures, colors, fonts, headings, priorities, etc. Sound effects can be turned on/off, and Archives (completed items) maintained up to 60 days. With a colorful, clean interface for posting, checking, editing, and completing To-Dos, Orderly breaks down long lists of reminders into easily manageable sticky notes.

"Orderly is the most natural way to create your To-Do lists using simple iPhone gestures," states Tekton Technologies. "All your info is presented as simple sticky notes, so that you can create To-Dos and post them on your board, just like a sticky note. But this App allows you to prioritize your To-Dos, without the hassle of misplacing a note or forgetting an item, just because there are too many To-Dos to manage. The best part of the app is that Orderly automatically prioritizes your To-Dos by moving around those sticky notes."

Device Requirements:
* iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
* Requires iOS 5.0 or later
* 4.6 MB

Pricing and Availability:
Orderly 2.0 is now at the introductory price of $0.99 (USD) and available worldwide exclusively through the App Store in the Productivity category. Review copies are available on request.

To fulfill the dreams of every Minimar ever since their infancy, space exploration.

Photography Magic - Create DSLR Effects Quickly with iQuikDoF - Published on 09/26/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Independent iPhone app developer emirBytes today announces iQuikDoF 1.6 and iQuikDoF PRO 1.4 for iOS devices. The apps were created for iPhoneographers and emphasize creating selective focus in a photo - thus Depth of Field, Macro Lens and Miniature effect can be created quickly and easily. The latest update brings back the famous Stack feature, a fix for iOS6 compatibility and improved on the Pan and Zoom operation when specifying/drawing an area.

Shah Alam, Malaysia - Independent iPhone's app developer, emirBytes, announced today that iQuikDoF (iQuik-Depth of Field) Free and PRO are available to download in the Apple's App Store. The app is created specifically for the iPhone and iPod touch platforms, but iPad users are able to use it as well.

iQuikDoF was created specially for iPhoneographers to create awesome photography effects from any of their photos. Using a similar engine to the famous iQuikSplash app, iQuikDoF is able to process selective focusing in any photos. With such ability, iPhoneographers can produce macro lens effects, Tilt-shift effects, and Miniature effects. The blur effect produced by the app is also very smooth.

The developer said, "In previous version we had to ditch the "Stack" function to make way for High Resolution support. Many customers wrote to us requesting to add it back. And so in the latest version, we updated both the Free and Pro versions with "Stack" function, where you can apply the current effects permanently and continue to process the photo again - this makes it easy for you to apply layer upon layer of blurring, without saving and reloading the photo."

Translating the Human Experience Through Documentary Editing - Published on 09/26/12

IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Manhattan Edit Workshop, the cutting-edge authorized digital training destination for post-production and content creators, announces the return of its five-day intensive workshop, The Art of Documentary Editing, from October 29th - November 2nd. Taught by Janet Dalton, MEWshop's director of education and freelance editor, and MEWshop owner and filmmaker Josh Apter, students will explore the many techniques of documentary editing. Early bird pricing ends October 5th.

New York, New York - Manhattan Edit Workshop (MEWshop), the cutting-edge authorized digital training destination for post-production and content creators, is proud to announce the return of its five-day intensive workshop, The Art of Documentary Editing, from October 29th - November 2nd. Taught by Janet Dalton, MEWshop's director of education and freelance editor, and MEWshop owner and filmmaker Josh Apter, students will explore the many techniques of documentary editing, from the creative decisions that make a great story to established workflow methods for picture and sound that every editor should know.

The workshop will also feature an impressive lineup of guest speakers, including Sam Pollard (When The Levees Broke, Four Little Girls), Jonathan Oppenheim (Paris Is Burning, Sister Helen), Robert Eisenhardt (Valentino: The Last Emperor, Woodstock: Now and Then), and Arielle Amsalem (By the People: The Election of Barack Obama, The Education of Dee Dee Ricks). These award-winning editors will discuss their own work and careers in a rare opportunity for students to learn the craft from some of the best in the field. Instructors and students will screen and deconstruct clips from a wide range of non-fiction genres, and also cut footage from real documentaries - experiencing firsthand how editing can affect character or story and create or alter reality. There will be frequent screenings and critiquing of each other's work.

"Documentary editing is such a specific art, because you're taking real events and telling a story through the act of editing - there's no storyboard or roadmap. It's a process that feels more like writing with images and sound than anything else," says Josh Apter, founder of Manhattan Edit Workshop and workshop instructor. "And students will learn that art as well as the technology behind documentary editing; for example, understanding how Avid's Script Sync and Adobe's Speech Analysis can minimize the time spent searching through hours of footage, and how Red Giant's PluralEyes can be an essential tool for syncing footage."

"Documentary editing is writing with living people's words and moving images to create a story. It is a totally unique endeavor. Subjects of a documentary want to tell their stories; they want to trust the filmmakers, and they ultimately want to be contained by the audience," says guest instructor for the workshop and award-winning documentary editor Jonathan Oppenheim of documentary editing and the knowledge he brings to the workshop. "As an editor, you are in a unique position to honor that trust or to abuse it, and the intention you bring to the process is crucial. Do I want promote something, make an ad, make propaganda, serve an agenda, or make art? Art is the word I use to express the most honest and complex rendering I can muster of a subject's existence. This is my intention and, for me, it is the primary guide in the shaping of a story. It is a means to keep the bar high and the aim true. If you intend to express the universal within a subject, you have a shot at doing it."

Guest instructor Sam Pollard, an editor with nearly 30 years of industry experience, says of the workshop, "As far as I am concerned, documentary editing is the definitive way to learn how to tell a story in filmmaking."

Students of the Art of Documentary Editing workshop will gain a wealth of knowledge over the course of five days. While students will learn and explore the technology used for documentary editing, they must come to the class with experience in Final Cut Pro, Avid or Premiere Pro. Students may enroll in a certified Avid Media Composer 6, Premiere Pro CS6 or FCP X class prior to the Art of Documentary class and receive a 15% discount on both classes.

Students are welcome to take material from the class to use on their personal reels.

Register before October 5th to save $200.00 USD. The regular cost of the workshop is $1,395.00. The Art of Documentary Editing will run from Monday, October 29th through Friday, November 2nd, from 10am to 6pm each day.
