Proofing Website

©TimeLine Media - American Star Ball

This upcoming Wednesday, I am planning an upgrade to the proofing website. The current site is working just fine, but there is a new version of the software available. There are some features that some of you have requested including a simple slideshow for viewing your photos. There is also a version that is specifically made for iPad users! Smartphone and iPads are used to view the websites more and more, so I am looking to make sure you get the full experience going forward.

On Wednesday, I will close the proofing website for testing. The self tests on the website should not take long, so there should be a seamless transition to the new software. I will post here on the blog when it is completed. Please try it out and let me know how you like the new features. If there are any issues, I will work to get them fixed before the next new event. Of course, I would be happy to help if there is something you cannot find n there. Thank you!

Dance Beat Article

Dance Beat -Ed. 0613

Previously, I had posted that some of our photos from the 2013 American Star Ball were published in an article for Dance Beat. The 0613 Edition of the magazine started with an article about the event, and it features 15 photos from TimeLine Media! Thanks to our friends at Encore Ballroom Couture for saving a copy of the magazine for us. I am waiting to receive some extra copies from the publisher since it was a really good summary of the weekend.

Dance Beat has consistently published extensive reviews and recaps of ballroom dance competitions both nationally and internationally. With the amount of subscribers and advertisers that it reaches, it is definitely a privilege to have so many of the photos make it into the article. Thanks to Amanda and Ilya Reyzin for setting up a beautiful ballroom for good photos. The dark red accent colors against black draping really helped to contrast the lighting on the floor. In publishing to newsprint, it helps to have contrasting backgrounds for your subject. They also gave us all-access to the events both on and off the floor which helped to show off their competition more completely. I am confident that this will help to bring even more people to their event next year. It is always nice to see your work published but especially in a periodical dedicated to your specialty. Hope there are more chances to be in there in the future!

It was a great weekend for getting photos! The weather was so nice for being outside in late July. On this occasion, I made lots of personal photos, and some that I will post soon. We took some time to take a drive to a local spot for some different photos. I did have to work on lots of orders from these expiring ballroom dance events, so these may be on the backburner for a bit. While working on the photos I attempt to put them together in different ways. As can be seen, collages can work well for dance photos:

When working on this project, I start with a basic collection of 3 portrait – orientation photos. Luckily, it is easy to find these from Arthur Murray events. Adding the logo finishes the poster to give them a saleable look!
