Michel Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 I liked the slide show with this beautiful work of Olga....Very nice synthesized images !(download from beechbrook here)The next week, I go to London...Is it here somebody that I could see ? Quote
think(box) Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 Olga Alakina is one very talented artist. Thank you for honoring us with your works, Olga.C'est vrai Michel on the synthesized images.Olga, if I may ask, what tools did you use to create this art?As I watched the show I thought I could see some of Oleg's slideshow style, as was confirmed in the credits Quote
LumenLux Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 Olga's artistic talent and Oleg's skill in displaying the creations is a very nice combination. The show brings to mind a thought I've had before. When new tech tools come on the scene, be it new digital cameras or new software for artistic pursuits, it is "easy" for "anyone" to impress and "gee whiz" a general audience. But after the "newness" wears a little, and more and more of us common folk can do the basics, then the exceptional talent and artists come to the top. Once "talent" finds "tech", the results can be wonderful. Of course all of us hope are "talents" are also magnified and exercised by the tech tools as well. Quote
OGL Posted August 1, 2003 Report Posted August 1, 2003 Hi, friends!Michel, thanks for your compliments!Bill wrote:Olga, if I may ask, what tools did you use to create this art?Olga use PhotoShop v7 with plugin filters (KPT5,7, KPTeffects, Andromeda,UleadFantasyWarp ...e.t.c.).Olga's job is physician, computer graphic arts is hobby. But Olga is one of worldstars in graphic arts for SSTV. I could see some of Oleg's slideshow style, She is my "student" in graphics art...

Guest guru Posted August 2, 2003 Report Posted August 2, 2003 If I'm allowed, I too would say something about Olga's graphic art.Working in an ancient Academy of Fine Arts, I see very often several "masterpieces" of so-called computer art.Well, let me say that in general I don't like it at all. Under the pretext of a new "avant-garde", we see all kinds of trash smuggled as "art". And if someone dares express some doubts about these masterworks, he is considered a short-sighted conservative, not able to understand modern art.Sure I don't look down on technics in art: all great artists of the past, from Michelangelo until to Velasquez, Rembrandt, Monet, Van Gogh, Picasso had an outstanding technics. But technics must be nothing but a medium, and too often now the computer is the main interest of these "artists".Forgive me this long, professorial preamble (but I am a professor! ). What I want to say is that Olga is in my opinion a happy exception to the rule. Her images are always really creative, and reveal a true artistic taste.My compliments Olga, and go on! Quote
Robert Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 Hi OlegWould it be possible to tell us how it was done (with Pte) that the different transition effects appear only inside the frames of the pictures and not on the entire screenI am kind of nosy where do you live in Russia ? Thank for the infosRobert Quote
think(box) Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 I'll give you my guess while awaiting Oleg's answer (I noticed it too).I would say you that you assemble each slide in the photo editing tool (usually Photoshop for Oleg's works) with whatever superimposition you want. You make pictures with changing internal photo overlaps. When you make the show in PTE, it is simply a dissolve or other effect from one slide to the next.Who knows - Oleg may have found an easier way Quote
Tomuk Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 I liked the slide show with this beautiful work of Olga....Very nice synthesized images !(download from beechbrook here)The next week, I go to London...Is it here somebody that I could see ? Michel,You say you are off to London later this week, you might like to have a look at my "London" sequence I have posted on Beechbrook Cottage.Have a great time and take loads of Photos.Tom. Quote

Olga is professional physician, I'm electronic engineer.Your estimation of our work there is unexpected for us and is very pleasing. Thank You very much!Robert wrote:I am kind of nosy where do you live in Russia ? Yes Robert, I live in Russia, Nizhny Novgorod city (400km to East from Moskow), ~ 1.5 millions peoples. Aviation, shipbuilding, automobile plant and electronic plants, science. 16 TV channels, 18 broadcasting FM radiostations.(I'm technical director of one of FM stations)that the different transition effects appear only inside the frames of the pictures and not on the entire screen Bill {think(box} are right. You make pictures with changing internal photo overlaps. I make "packet" file with all my pictures for slidefilm. I think, my technology there is very suitable. To think(box):Bill, my congratulations to You! You have revealled all a top secrets of these cruel Russian guys and girls!You is James Bond? Quote
alrobin Posted August 4, 2003 Report Posted August 4, 2003 Oleg and Olga,Oleg, that explains the flashing light at the beginning of the show, and Olga, I thought I noticed some similarities in your beautiful graphics to some internal body cavities. Congratulations, Olga, for a show well done, and the music was well chosen, too! Those graphic images were very effective. Quote
OGL Posted August 4, 2003 Report Posted August 4, 2003 From Olga AlakinaTo guru :Hello, Guido!Thank you for the high estimation of my grsphic, Guido! But when I create this pictures I don't think about art. I just want to make something beautiful, like I understand it.I can't painting like Rembrant or Picasso, but I out create computer pictures. And I like it.And forgive me this long, not professional preambule, but I am a physician only. / I just glad that my pictures bring you aesthetic joy.Thank you one more time for the compliments! To alrobin :Dear Al, to say the truth, I didn't want to choose pictures for the show, which can remark some internal body cavities. I just want to show my best pictures and Oleg make a little slidefilm. A agreed that some of my pictures a realy remark body cavities and human cells. But I am a physician. Maybe this is an answer... Regards, Olga. --------------------------------------------------From OlegHello Al.Sorry my long silent, but I have very hard last week.About flashing.Like Portos saying (did you read A.Duma?):" Flashing because flashing..." Al, this is animation only!Oleg. Quote
alrobin Posted August 4, 2003 Report Posted August 4, 2003 Oleg,No, I never did read "The Three Muskateers", but I saw the movie and it wasn't nearly as good as Olga's slide show! Quote
Guest guru Posted August 5, 2003 Report Posted August 5, 2003 To Olga:Olga, many artists didn't think about art, but - like you - simply searched for beautiful, and made art...You say you are "only" a physician. But it's not impossible to be a physician and an artist! Quote
Ken Cox Posted August 5, 2003 Report Posted August 5, 2003 adding to Guido's remarkyou would have to be both an artist and a physician to be a PLASTIC SURGEON ken Quote
OGL Posted August 6, 2003 Report Posted August 6, 2003 From Olga To guru Hello, Guido!Sorry my English not so good. I can't understand your remark: "But it's not impossible to be a physician and an artist!"Are you seriously or it's just a joke? In Russian reality you can be"stiker and poet" ( Iosiph Brodsky ) "prisoner and writer" ( AlexanderSolzhenitsyn )...e.t.c.To Ken Cox Thank you Ken!It's good idea! I think Oleg will be my first patient. Thank you one more time!Best regards, Olga.--------------------------------------------From OlegOh, Ken! What are you doing? Olga is very resolute women! I'm afraid that soon my face will be resemble one of the Olga's "Red style" pictures... Oleg Quote
Guest guru Posted August 9, 2003 Report Posted August 9, 2003 "I can't understand your remark: 'But it's not impossible to be a physician and an artist!' "Forgive my late reply, Olga. What I meant to say is that a physician can also be an artist, even if his (her) main job is medicine. In other words, a physician can make art works too.It's your case, as it seems! Quote
Rooskidiver Posted August 20, 2003 Report Posted August 20, 2003 Oleg, my friend! Exceptional work as always. You are a gifted, multi-talented genius and it is so generous of you and Olga to share your skills with the rest of us who are using this wonderful program, PTE. The graphics are superlative, Olga. It is nice that you can find a passion aside from medicine that gives you and now us so much pleasure. Oleg, thank you for sharing your work and also for permitting us to experience the beauty of Olga's creations. Have a double vodka on me Carol Quote
