On the Air with Digiversity.tv LIVE!

We're live in 4 ... 3 ... 2 ....

It just wasn't enough for us to be busy making episodes for the launch of Digiversity.tv. No, we had to ALSO start making live shows, streaming on Adobe Behance. We hope you'll join us.

As if we weren’t busy enough trying to launch a new website, Julia Zieger and I decided to create a LIVE show, as well. Yeah...kinda crazy.

It wasn’t really planned. It just sort of happened.

I was in “Studio B” working on an Episode for the “What’s New in CC 2022” series. It shows a new feature of InDesign that has a few functions of Adobe Capture. I was trying to edit the shape I had just created in the CC Library when I found a really cool feature...then ran into a snag that dragged me down into a rabbit hole that took hours from my life.

Somewhere in there, while trying to solve this mystery “bug” I had encountered, I received a notification that our friend Tim Möbest was streaming live on Behance.

I walked over to the railing of the loft, which keeps me from falling to my death, leaned over and asked Julia: “Why aren’t we streaming live?”

So now we are. And having a ball doing it.

Premiere

Last week was the Premier of Digiversity.tv LIVE and nobody was injured, there were no fires, and a few people (43) actually joined in to watch. I call that a win. 

In our first Episode I relived the trauma of solving the Indesign/CC Libraries/Illustrator/EPS bug that started this whole thing. We also introduced features “Beef of the Week” and “Mind Blower of the Week.” Fun. You can watch the recording of it, if you really, really, really have nothing better to do.

Make sure to follow Digiveristy.tv on Behance so you get notified when we're live.

And now we are planning our second episode: Adobe CC 2022! What’s HOT! What’s NOT!

Got Some Beef?

Beef of the Week

We have a lot of fun, informative stuff planned for the episode, as well as the return of “Beef of the Week” and “Mind Blower of the Week.”

The big deal about our next show is that we’ll all play “New Feature BINGO!” and the viewer who wins gets an enormous prize (to be announced live on the show).

But in this morning’s Digiversity.tv LIVE planning meeting, Julia and I decided to make this even BIGGER! “Not possible,” you say? Well...not MUCH bigger, but a little bigger.

Take Your Viewers to Work Day

We are taking the existing Series “Take Your Viewers to Work Day” and making it live. It already was kind of live, but still edited a bit. Now it will stream live on Behance and the recording will go on the site in the Series. So when Julia, or I, have a project to work on, and we think it would be of interest to viewers, we’ll announce it and hit the button to go on Air. Then you can join us as we work on real projects for real humans.

We are also creating a new LIVE Series called “Digiversity.tv Labs,” where Julia, or I, or both of us may be wondering how something works in the software and we’ll let you join us in the lab as we test new ideas, features, workflows, integration with other applications, and more. 

This may not be pretty. It may be that, just like in science, the experiments don’t give us the results we had hoped for. But at least we’ll know what NOT to do, eh?

Are we biting off more than we can chew? Probably, but we’re having fun and it’s nice to interact with other creatives on the same path. 

We look forward to joining you on future Episodes of Digiversity.tv LIVE, Take Your Viewers to Work Day, and Digiversity.tv Labs. And don’t forget about our video library currently available at Digiversity.tv

And we’re live in 4 … 3 … 2 ….

I'm just a guy who was lucky to have made MANY mistakes creating files since 1987...and learning from those mistakes. Always trying to find a better way, I've learned the techniques you see in these videos on real projects over 35 years (plus many more doing paste-up).

Editorial ethics is on the line

The question of ethics, when it comes to editorial content, isn't new…just some of the tools available are. When it comes to generative AI, it’s important to decide now what your publication will allow.

Is it Time to Say "Goodbye" to Type 1 Fonts

We've only used them since 1984!

We've only been using Type 1 fonts for just under 40 years. Surely we can get some more use out of them? Nope. Adobe ends the run in January of 2023 and you'll need to find alternatives.
