Visual Arts - February 2007

I want to buy either a new or used super 8 camera. I am interested in purchasing it at a store if I can help it, and not online. I live in Mass. Does anyone know any stores or flea markets...ANYWHERE specific...where I can find one?

I was also hoping for some brand suggestions..it can range from inexpensive (cheap) to the expensive. I am really interested in using these to film home movies...or maybe produce an independent.

I also like the idea of learning about the mechanics of a machine and having good photo technique. I want a quality Super 8 that will last me a lifetime if possible. Thanks in advance!

You know the movie, sin city, how everything is either black and white, except for a few things that are vibrant colors, such as red or blue? How can i acomplish this on Adobe photoshop 7.0? I'm not asking for a step by step tutorial, although that would be cool. If you could just give me an idea, that would help. I want a pic to look like it was from sin city, with rain drops, black and white colors, as well as a vibrant red color. If you dont know what sin city looks like, it looks like this...

This website takes old pictures and puts random captions on them. I was wondering what this picture:

was originally from (a science magazine or something, maybe?). Anyone have an idea?

on a slr camera you look inside and it tells the aperture number. if the line is right in the middle of the signs - or + does that tell you that is the right number for the shutter too and that the picture is going to come out good?

He has always liked to draw, though likes to copy pictures (mainly cartoon types e.g pokemon). His precision is great and in proportion. He also has excellent imagination and so we are encouraging him to create his own characters. Is there a way we can get a professional opinion on his potential

I am not a professional photographer or anything of the such. My grandmother is about to turn 100 yrs old come Feb 19. I am considering taking photos for the family since we do need to hire a photographer...(which would be more expensive). But, I am having a problem considering what would be an ideal price to charge and how should I go about charging (per photo)? I anticipate taking about 250 photos of this life-time, memorable event. I have a high quality 5.0 megapixel digital cam and a high quality photo printer. The photos print out great. If charging for each photo would be best in your idea, how much would you say I charge for each photo.

I am an artist and am working on a new project focusing on positive body image. Can you think of labels that society puts on women? Words that describe how you view yourself? (both positive or negative)

Thank you for contributing!

Has anyone ever heard of an oil painting artist named...Kingion or someone similar? I have a painting that is like 4 1/2 by 4 feet. It is a river with trees along it and mountains in the background.It looks like you could just walk into it.I would like to know how old it is and what it might be worth. It looks pretty old but it is in good shape.
Thank you, Bonnie

Is it illegal in the U.S to use adobe photoshop to cut a politician's head and putting it on a body that is hanged. So it would seem like that politician is actually hanged. And then posting it on the internet??
