After Earth (2013)

A new poster has just hit the internet for After Earth, M. Night Shyamalan's sci-fi, post-apocalyptic movie starring Jaden Smith and his father Will Smith. The one-sheet, to the left, teases what might be Shyamalan's most epic work yet. After Earth — which will probably include a major twist at the end knowing Shyamalan's work — takes place in the future, after a crash landing leaves teenager Kitai Raige (Jaden) and his father Cypher (Will) stranded on Earth 1,000 years after cataclysmic events forced humans to escape the planet. With his father critically injured, Kitai must embark on a journey to get help in uncharted, dangerous territory with evolved animal species that now rule the planet, and an alien creature that escaped during the crash.
After the trailer came out a few weeks ago, this poster certainly increases our excitement for the father/son flick. The stunning visuals of Earth in the image are only hiding nefarious, dangerous elements, and that juxtaposition of beauty vs. the unknown is compelling — why did humanity leave the planet?

Jerry Seinfeld Explains How He Writes Jokes

Jerry Seinfeld talks about comedy writing and how he writes a joke in this video from the New York Times. The Times also has a feature on Seinfeld. In the video, Seinfeld explains how he came up with a joke called "The Pop Tart Joke." Seinfeld says he always writes on yellow pads. He doesn't use the computer because he says he doesn't like that cursor flashing and asking, "So, What have you got?" Seinfeld compares the joke writing process to songwriting, where you are looking for just the right word with the right amount of syllables. He says if you have a long joke, the end is the hardest part because that is where the biggest laugh has to be. Take a look:

My Daily Horoscope

The study of movements and relative positions of celestial bodies interpreted as having an influence on human affairs and the natural world. Ancient observers of the heavens developed elaborate systems of explanation based on the movements of the sun, moon, and planets through the constellations of the zodiac, for predicting events and for casting horoscopes.
For example, I was born with zodiac Cancer. Today is December 16, 2012. According to this information my daily horoscope has been described below.
Yesterday
You have to make the first move, whether you want to ask someone out or talk with your parents about a big deal. Once you get the ball rolling, it's easy to keep up with it, so don't be shy!
Today
Get started on something new today -- you have plenty of drive, and it's a great time to take a trip somewhere new, even if it's online or in your mind. Things are going to change for the better.
Tomorrow
You're a bit more stressed out than usual, but you can alleviate it pretty quickly by getting out of the house for a walk or pretty much anything else, as long as it can clear out your head.
What's about you ?

Photoshop Tutorial: Extracting Images from Backgrounds

Step One: 
Open your image up in Photoshop in JPEG format. It is extremely suggested that you start off with a subject on a white or light colored background. This will make it a lot easier to extract the image and then blend it into a new background, despite quality.  
Step Two: 
Go to Filter, then Extract. When the window opens up, click the marker tool in the upper right hand corner. Now tick the "smart highlighting" box. Depending on the size of the edges you want to extract, choose an appropriately sized brush. 
Step Three: 
Move the mark completely around the edges of you want extracted. Once you go completely around the image, click the paint can tool and fill inside the green lines. This will make the image a blue color (don't worry, your image is NOT this color). This will also make sure you get the entire image extracted and not just the outlines in green. 
Step Four: 
Click OK, and now the extracted image will be on your canvas without the original background with it. 
Step Five: 
If the image does not have nice smooth edges, try the process again or use the eraser tool to fix the edges that aren't even or jagged. The eraser tool allows to remove unwanted bits and pieces. Otherwise, you can move on to the next step. 
Step Six: 
Now choose your background. You can choose basically anything you want. You can also use your own background images or find one on a free stock photo website. Now you can paste the extracted image on the background. Click Control+C� to copy, and Control+V to paste. 
Step Seven:
You can blend easily by blurring the edges of the extracted background, or simple by adding a filter. You can also move around the extracted images with the pointer. You will need to flatten the image to apply a filter for both at the same time.
