E-book Covers and Colour Adjust Discoveries

This week on Binky’s Blog, Binky shares her discoveries in creating e-books covers without spending more a few bucks at most, and adjusting image colour without being a graphic designer.

“I just spent the past 5 hours (11 PM to 4 AM) trying to figure out how to create an e-book cover and adjust colour on an image. Okay, some of you might be going “duah”. Thing is, I’m not a graphic artist and I don’t draw. Illustrator and Photoshop are alien to me. Needless to say the image wouldn’t open in Photoshop. And now you’re wondering, from someone who makes videos, WHY am I trying to create an e-book cover. Simple, so I can sell my own e-books on my website. I did mention I had a series of short stories I wanted to self-publish. What I found was that I can do all this with Powerpoint and Adobe ImageReady. Let me share with you what I discovered.”

Image – Green = Magenta?

This week on Binky’s Blog, Binky talks about the importance of, and a good way to develop the sill, colour-correction.

“That’s right. When you enter the world of colour-correction and RGB, balancing light and colour in an image, the rules of colour we thought we knew don’t apply. Needless to say, although time consuming and at times confusing, it is a necessary part of video post-production. It allows one’s video to be, well, balanced out.

When you’re on set, you can have all the necessary lighting equipment, do all your white balances properly, yet when you’ve edited your video, the light and colour changes from shot to shot. This is normal. We cannot fully control light and colour on set. In a perfect world, it would be automatic and there would be no need for this task. Which is why people like Binky Productions and other companies offer this service. It’s okay if you don’t have the patience for it, and if you do, and you want to understand more or learn it altogether, then you’ve come to the right blog.”

Screenplay or Novel

Binky Prod has an all new page: Binky’s Blog! This week Binky talks about the difference and her preferences between writing a screenplay and a novel.

“I’ve been asked several times how different it is to write a screenplay to writing a story in novel format and how do I know, when inspiration hits, if it’s going to be a script or a story. The same could be asked about a screenplay, will it be a feature film, web series, short? In my opinion, there is no predetermined formula for knowing these things, I usually just know, however there is some thinking behind it all.”
