Have you ever watched a movie with breathtaking landscapes, gorgeous castles or giant buildings in the middle of nowhere that makes you ask yourself “How did they do that?” . Well there is a technique in video editing called “Compositing” which allows you to do that. In fact compositing has grown so much during the last few years, that it is accepted to be not only a technique but a whole new kind of art. Continue reading
At the heart of a table tennis player & coach
They are hand picked, highly trained and on many occasions multi talented; and when they graduate we are sorry to see them go. On the other hand we couldn’t be prouder!
Take Constantinos Christoudias for instance. He has been with us for just over 2 years. He was an exceptional assistant and an exceptional student. Little did we know that behind his warm “customer service” exterior smile, beat the heart of a true competitor. Constantinos is both a table tennis player and a coach. Continue reading
The importance of logos in our lives
Logo. A simple word which has a huge meaning. How would our life be without logos? How are we supposed to recognize each company, every organization or any other organized groups purpose without the existence of logos?
Logos are created by artists in cooperation with organization’s executives in order to indicate the organization’s identity in a graphic form and introduce it to the audience.

Apple new line up
After Steve Job’s passing, Apple went all the rage these days with new and more colourful products in its line that ‘revolutionizes’ the conservative image Apple used to have over the years. Maybe it has something to do with Jonathan Ives stepping up in as the lead designer of Apple. As far as I can recall the last person being head of design in Apple products was Steve Jobs. I believe that this will change Apple’s image as we know it forever. Also I believe that we are going to see some more ‘aggressiveness’ in the time cycle of new products that come out. This will get them into the more competitive aspect of the market than just being independent as a company and being isolated by themselves and have them expand into more sectors and hopefully drag more people into the Apple ecosystem.

RED Epic? What is that?!
If 2 cameras are not enough for your production, try shooting with 50. Recently, I was watching a behind the scenes video of the new Hollywood film, “The Hobbit”. The thing that amazed me was the fact that in order for the film to be shot, 48 RED epic cameras were used. I started asking myself “Why RED?”, “What is it that makes these cameras better than the rest, and why choose them ?” . And that is why I want to share with you a brief review of the RED epic cameras and leave you to decide for yourself if it’s worth the price of 24 000$ !!! Continue reading
Control everything in a Hotel by a smart mobile phone
This is where new-tech is going. It is amazing, because we might have never imagined 5 or 10 years ago that when we go to a hotel, instead of receiving a key card, we will receive a smart phone.
Now this is possible with new technology. The so called high-tech hotels are using this system to provide an advanced and perhaps more secured services to their customers. I wondered how it worked, so I searched little about it. Continue reading
Robots in our lives
I remember when I was a kid, we used to play with robots; a toy that had a light and some nice motions to it. At the time I never thought that one day robots could be used in big and very sensitive operations. I always asked myself the question of how much can robots be useful for humans. Continue reading

Mobile phones & me!
Hey everyone!
This time I’m going to write about my experience with mobile phones. I’m not the best person to talk about technology, so I’ll skip that part and just talk about the use of mobile phones.
I had one which was actually very cool. It was smaller than my palm and it had a touch screen and a very easy menu to use. It didn’t have any crazy or fancy applications and the battery lasted for almost 5 days. I ‘d always forget where I had put the charger. Continue reading
