Giving Art: Magic Seed
Routa Segal and Maryanne Stubbs
$35, 15% of the proceeds will be donated to Gilda's Club, and Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center.
Take a creative opportunity to express kindness and share it with those in need. In this workshop we will create art by visualizing what may grow out of a 'magic seed' by drawing, painting or collaging the many of life-affirming possibilities.
Come anytime during the workshop and create as much as you like. The artworks will be sent to patients diagnosed with cancer, whose hopes for healing will be supported by your good will.
One specific question I have: what job or project is worth it to you, in your area of expertise, to do for portfolio experience? I ask because for photographers, unpaid testing is common when one wants to do work to build one's portfolio, but the line seems to be crossed when people who own small businesses want top notch photos of their goods or of themselves for low or no pay. Photographers, would you agree? Disagree? Everyone else: what's the line that gets crossed in your industry?
Screen Printing is a simple and effective way to produce an unlimited number of virtually identical prints onto practically any surface. A screen fabric is stretched tightly onto a wooden frame and is coated with a photosensitive material. Part of the screen is then blocked with a stencil and is exposed through a photo process leaving your image on the screen. When ink is deposited onto the screen, it is pushed through with a squeegee leaving the image on the printing surface which may be a T-shirt, paper, glass, plastic, or just about anything.
In this class you will learn all of the steps involved in the screen printing process from design conception to the finished product. No prior knowledge is required, however students are encouraged to prepare their designs on a computer program like Photoshop and basic knowledge of similar programs and access to a computer is helpful. It is not required though, and the computer steps will be covered in class as well.
You will be provided with a list of materials and instructions to set up a screen printing “lab” and make prints in your very own home.
Please bring a one color design to class that you would like printed. Bring your design on a sheet of plain white paper no larger than 8.5"x11" or preferably as a jpeg on a CD or a flash drive. Even if you intend to print your design in colors other than black, you should arrive with all parts of your design printed in black with high contrast to produce ideal results. Producing multiple color, multi-layered designs will be discussed in class so that you may experiment on your own, but they are too complicated to attempt in an introductory course. It's also best to choose a design that is free of many fine lines, but if you do have fine lines in your design, they must be at least 1mm thick.
Also bring shirts, fabric, colored paper, or anything else that you would like to print on besides white paper.
There are only 10 spaces available in total so sign up quickly! You must sign up at least 24 hours in advance of class to be registered.
Class fee is $125.00.(A class fee of $80.00 + a $45.00 materials fee)
If you can answer either question an emphatic "YES!" Then you may have found the photographer you have been seeking to document your wedding day.
To cut a potentially long CraigsList ad short, let me cut to the point. For couples getting married between November 1st and March 15th I offer a "Limited Winter Wedding Package." This package is 44% below my standard in-season full package rate, and starts at $2250!
Who am I , and why should you be interested in my 'Limited Winter Wedding Package?"
I am an international editorial and corporate photographer, who also works with couples around the world to document their wedding days. My work has allowed me the privilege of working 1-on-1 with music legends, former presidents and presidential hopefuls, and couples seeking true documentation of their wedding day.
I know the term 'International Photographer' is thrown around often on CraigsList, however in the 'engagement session' section of my portfolio alone you'll find images of couples I have created in the United States, Canada, England, France, China and Japan.
I do not view my work as a commodity , I view it as a historical record of your wedding day. There is only one opportunity to create a complete story of your wedding day, there are no second chances. Your images will be all about you, your personality, your emotions your personal moments.
1. A state of the art Web site where your work gets immediate
exposure to oodles of fans and potential paying customers.
2. A simple to understand, transparent profit sharing model which
offers you two way to make money: by selling physical works of art
or by creating premium photo/video galleries. We are artist-centric
and aim to make money with you, not off you.
3. All services are unconditionally free to you and always will be.
Once monetization features are launched in the near future, we will
be taking a small cut of what you make. But we will never charge you
for just being on Unseen.
We take particular pride in being completely inclusive of all artistic
media, race or sexual orientation of the content.
Feel free to reply to this ad with any questions.

1. What is Unseen.TV
Unseen.TV is an Internet marketplace for the grassroots erotica content. There are already many sites on the Internet that exhibit high quality erotica artwork. There are even more sites that earn oodles of cash off mediocre erotica also known as porn. We have built Unseen.TV because we think that there is a place for a site that does both: feature quality work and let its members profit from their talent.
We do not produce any content. Rather, we provide a state-of-the-art Web pltform for the individual artists to post, exhibit and sell their own content. Everything you post on the site remains your intellectual property and responsibility. We are not in any way affiliated with the porn industry.
2. How it will Work
Once Unseen.TV is past its infancy, there will be two ways for artists to earn money:
* By creating premium photo/video galleries.
* By selling physical works of art: digital prints, paintings, drawings, sculpture, etc.
2.1 Premium Galleries
The other way for you to make money with Unseen.TV is to create Premium galleries. Although at the moment we only free galleries, eventually you will have a choice to publish your images in either of two sections: Free and Premium. The Free Section will let you publish your images for free and your viewers can also view it for free. The Premium Section can only be viewed by paying subscribers. At lest half of what we will collect from paying subscribers will be paid back to the Premium content providers in the form of monthly profit sharing payment. The amount of this payment will be determined automatically as directly proportional to the number of times your gallery has been viewed in that month
It will be up to you what section to put your material in. We recommend that only the best quality and most popular images be put in the Premium Section.
2.2 Physical Artwork
We're very happy to be home to all art media: painting, drawing, prints, sculpture and photography. We are actively working on giving you the ability to sell your physical artwork. Once this feature is launched in the near future, you will be able to indicate which of the images in your galleries are available for purchase as either photographic prints or original art. We will handle all the payment details for you.
If you sell original art, you will be responsible for the shipment of your art. You will have full discretion over the price of your artwork. We will send you the payment after a short waiting period during which your customers will be entitled to a no-questions-asked return.
If you sell photographic prints, you will have a choice of doing your own printing or letting us do it for you. If you opt for making your own prints, your artwork will be treated exactly the same as the original artwork in the previous paragraph. If you wish to let us do the printing for you, you will be responsible for providing us with a high-resolution digital image file for the peaces you offer for sale. You will still be able to set your own price for the prints, however we will withhold a fixed amount to cover the printing costs.
Stay tuned for more news about the details of the physical artwork sales program.
3. How it Works For Now
Unseen.TV has only been launch in February of 2008. While there's already a great amount of quality content on the site, we believe that before we can introduce the Premium section and ask people for subscriptions, we must develop a more substantial body of quality content. This is where we count on your help. The sooner you upload your content the sooner we will be able to launch the Premium section, the sooner you'll get your first pay-check.
At this time we're working primarily with experienced photographers who will form the core of the Unseen community and set the tone for the level of content quality. Once there's enough to launch the Premium section, we'll automatically convert the top performing galleries to Premium at no cost to you. You will be notified via email to update your profile with the banking information so we're able to issue a payment.
4. Why Sign-up and How
Although you will be able to view the galleries in the Free Section anonymously, the following benefits are only available to registered users:
* Ability to create your own galleries.
* Ability to contact artists.
* Ability to add tags and comments to any one's galleries.
* Ability to adjust any one's gallery's metadata, such as its Hardness Rating or Orientation.
The sign-up is free and takes only a few minutes. Follow the Sign-up link at the top of most pages. The information you provide is absolutely confidential. We do not sell or share any personal information with anyone, except as required by law. (Complete Privacy Statement.)
5. Searching and Tagging
Unseen.TV uses a powerful extension of the popular open tagging search scheme, called Weighted Tagging¹. To review, in the traditional tagging scheme key words (called "tags") are associated with a particular gallery for the purposes of searching. For instance, if tags "bubble_bath" and "wet" are associated with a particular gallery, whenever a user searches on these tags, the gallery will be included in the search results (hit list).
In the weighted tagging scheme, pioneered by Unseen.TV, each tag associated with a particular gallery also has a weight that indicates the relative strength of the association. For instance the tag "high-heels" may be more relevant for A gallery than gallery B. In this case, the tag "high-heels" will have greater weight with respect to gallery A, than gallery B. Consequently, when someone searches on high-heels, gallery A will appear closer to the top of the hit list than gallery B.
A key point to understand about weighted tags is that weights are maintained by the server automatically. We use a sophisticated proprietary algorithm that tracks usage patterns and constantly adjusts tags' weights to reflect actual user experience. These algorithms take into consideration every search and a user's subsequent actions, such as which of the galleries on the hit list user actually looks at and how many images were clicked. For instance, assume you search on the tags "goth" and "librarian". After examining the search results, you will likely click on some of the galleries, but not others. Of those galleries that you click on, some you will not look any further, while others you will look at the gallery images. All these galleries that you will touch will be re-weighted to reflect the fact that the tags "goth" and "librarian" have more relevance to them than to other galleries.
An individual user's usage pattern will lead to a very small change in the tag weighting. But statistically compounded over many users, tags' weights will be a fair, efficient and self-maintaining mechanism for more precise searches than anywhere else on the Internet.
6. How We Determine Popularity
Just like all other types of metadata, the View Rank (popularity) is determined by the server automatically. The Unseen.TV server continually monitors the actual usage patterns and adjusts each gallery's View Rank based on how many people have looked at any of its images. This method is far superior to the typical rating system because we recalculate each gallery's View Rank every time someone clicks on one of its images. We compute the View Rank by dividing the number of times this gallery has been viewed in the last 30 days by the number of times the most popular gallery has been viewed in the same period of time.
Note that the Unseen.TV also features sophisticated fraud detection algorithms that will discount programmatic racking up of image clicks.
7. Content Orientation
We think of all erotic content as fundamentally either "Straight", "Gay" or "Bi". Admittedly, we also think that sometimes these designations can be vague, irrelevant, or even misleading. So, to make things less arbitrary we allow any gallery be associated with one, two or all three of these categories. Each gallery is rated as a weighted combination of the three orientation categories. We call this multi-category association the Orientation Histogram.
The important thing to remember is that, just like with many other types of metadata, we let viewers adjust a gallery's orientation rating. For instance, if the creator of a gallery chose a strictly "Straight" designation, then the initial histogram will be 100% Straight, 0% Bi and 0% Gay. Consequently, the gallery will only appear in searches by visitors whose orientation preference is also "Straight". (The current Orientation Histogram is displayed on the View Gallery Page.) However, if a viewer disagrees with this histogram, he may also associate this gallery with the "Bi" or "Gay" categories, so that the gallery will also appear in searches for those designations.
Note that we treat the original designation given by the gallery owner as far more relevant that the subsequent revisions by viewers. However, if enough people think that the original designation was incorrect, they will eventually overpower the gallery's original designation.
8. Hardness Rating
We think that the very term "erotic content" may mean very different things to different people. We also think that it's not our place to arbitrate between the varied tastes of the Unseen.TV community. Rather, we think that we are here to help everyone find what they are looking for. And one of the way we do that is by asking every gallery owner to rate his gallery for "hardness" on the scale of 1 to 10, where 1 means the softest and 10 -- the hardest kind of erotica you can imagine.
Note that just like with other kinds of metadata, we let viewers of the gallery adjust its hardness rating. For instance, if the creator of the gallery chose a rating of 5, then initially it will only appear in searches by visitors whose hardness range preference includes 5. However, if a viewer thinks that this gallery is really an 8, he may use the Adjust link to place his vote. We treat the original designation given by the gallery owner as far more relevant that the subsequent revisions by viewers. However, if enough viewers think that the original designation was incorrect and adjust it, the gallery's rating will eventually be properly adjusted.
9. How to Flag Inappropriate Content
The most common reasons for flagging is child pornography and copyright infringement, though you may flag any gallery if you think it violates Unseen.TV's Terms Of Use. To flag a gallery, follow the "flag" link at the bottom right of the View Gallery Page.
10. Social Networking
There is a number of social networking features on the Unseen.TV site and more are added as we develop.
* Comments. If you are a registered user, you can add comments to any gallery, unless its creator turned off that ability for a particular gallery.
* Private messaging. If you are a registered user, you can send a private message to the creator of a gallery, unless he or she turned off that feature.
11. How to Resign Unseen.TV
To resign your Unseen.TV account, follow the Account link at the top right, and then click on Close My Account. When you close your Unseen.TV account, we will immediately remove all your content from the server. However, we may keep some of your personal information for a period of a few weeks for marketing purposes.
12. Upcoming Features
We are constantly working on bringing you new features. Here's some that you should expect in the near future.
12.2. Physical Art Sales
We're very happy to be home to all art media: painting, drawing, prints, sculpture and photography. We are actively working on giving you the ability to sell your physical artwork. Once this feature is launched in the near future, you will be able to indicate which of the images in your galleries are available for purchase as either photographic prints or original art. We will handle all the payment details for you.
12.2. Premium Section
Although currently all content is free to publish and see, we are planning to introduce the Premium Section. There will be a small fee to publish your content in the Premium Section. However, if you sign-up and upload your content any time before the Premium Section is introduced, we will wave this fee for you for as long as you remain a member of Unseen.TV.
Here's how it will work. On the day when the Premium Section is introduced, we will automatically convert some or all of your galleries to premium. We will do our best so select only the best content for the Premium Section, but if you disagree with our selection you will be able, free of charge, change any gallery's designation from Free to Premium and vice versa at any time. Furthermore, this will be true even for the galleries you create after the introduction of the Premium Section.
12.3. Video
We are actively working on bringing you the ability to upload and watch video clips. They will work the same way as photographic images work today: you will have the choice to place your content into either the Premium or the Free section.
Would like to have work stations, but keep the workspace open. Each artist along with the work space would get use of the gallery on a rotating basis. Great for showing your work and hosting the work of others!
Freestanding corner storefront. Established Gallery. Bathroom, two entrances.
Here is a synopsis of the script: "The Porterhouse" is set in a steakhouse restaurant in a seething New York City right before the 2004 Republican Convention; an apathetic waiter with a secret past must overcome his inertia in order to decide whether to defend his co-worker, an Iraqi immigrant, from an accusation of grand larceny by a potentially violent boss. The restaurant becomes a microcosm of the conflicts in the country at large; between blue state and red, immigrant and native, south vs. north, progressive vs. conservative, etc.

I would need to borrow it for a friend's photo shoot this weekend. It's a bit risque, so we can't have you sit in and watch during the shoot, but if you're willing to trust us artists who would treat it as our own work (we have professional art handling experience!) and we'll return it once we're done in the same condition you gave it to us, then leave a message. Shoot is on Saturday afternoon, so we'd need to get it Friday night/Saturday morning and can return it Saturday evening/Sunday morning depending on your availability. We would prefer something big, so it reads well.
