Starter Pistol Version 1.0

So here it is, the final real release. It now includes the ability to save your time with your own choice of race length and location. This makes for a more complete app.
enjoy!!

Start with setting your countdown
CountDown - It starts with "On Your Mark" then "Set" and the "Pistol Shot" happens at various times. (3.5 to 1 second)
Uptimer - kicks in automatically (notice the huge button) we also disabled the sleep mode so you can complete a 4 X 4 without having to take your phone out of sleep mode.
Save - Save your time, location and race length with (date-time stamp). (see Starter Pistol Save Time)

Media Kit for the app is available here...

The track athlete is supposed to strap an iPhone to their arm or whatever and use this app to practice their starts. That would be pretty hard to do with an iPad.

Anyhow it gave us a chance to fine tune it a little. Here are the new screen shots

]]>Starter Pistol iPhone Apptommy@inconceivableproductions.comiPhone, iPad, iPod, developer,2010-09-01T20:18:14-07:00http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Starter-Pistol.html#unique-entry-id-15http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Starter-Pistol.html#unique-entry-id-15iPhone Apps:
Starter Pistol



OK we started something new at IP, we are now developing apps for the iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch devices.

The Starter Pistol is the first one, look for it soon in the App Store.

Here is a description of the Starter Pistol App:
This app is for the track runner to practice their starts. It features a countdown timer delay to start the "On Your Mark" sequence, the starter pistol sound fires at the end of the countdown sequence. Then a new uptimer kicks in to time the actual run. The " Stop" button on the uptimer is large enough that you really don't have to look at the phone to hit the button. We also set the sleep mode disable to be active on launch. So you can run the timer out without having wake your phone.

 This is the countdowntimer screen for the Starter Pistol iPhone App. Starter Pistol iPhone App Timer display and stop timer button.

We are very happy with the way the whole process went.

Check out the Starter Pistol page for more details.

So RED is raising the bar again, just when the world is trying to recover from the impact of the Red One Camera, the release a big brother to the ROC (Red - One - Camera) the 5K EPIC. More resolution, full size connectors, smaller package, full trade-in value, WOW! How are Panasonic, Sony, JVC, Viper, SI, and the Genesis, going to handle this news?]]>Should you Upgrade to Leopard? tommy@inconceivableproductions.comsoftwareediting2008-01-09T03:19:49-08:00http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Update%20to%20Leopard.html#unique-entry-id-6http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Update%20to%20Leopard.html#unique-entry-id-6Quicktime since the 10.4.11 update which updated Quicktime to 7.3.1 (my setup: PPC G5 - dual 2.0 gig). When I visited a site that had a Quicktime movie and tried to watch it, Safari would crash. Tried the same thing with Firefox and got the same result. This meant that it had to be something in the Quicktime update. I had issues with Finder as well. It would relaunch whenever I right-clicked on items. I went to the Apple site forums and tried a few of the fixes that were posted to no avail. ]]>What is the best Projector for my "Home Theater" ?tommy@inconceivableproductions.comvideomediahome theaterdigtal cinema2007-12-30T17:06:12-08:00http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Home%20Theater%20Projection.html#unique-entry-id-5http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Home%20Theater%20Projection.html#unique-entry-id-5
Quantify whether you have the ability to do a rear projection system. Rear projection is definitely the best for "Home Theater" if you have the room.

If you can do a rear projection system anything above 2000 lumens will work. Provided the space behind the projector is enclosed and ambient light can be controlled in that enclosure.

You can do rear projection in a space as small as 5' from the screen for a home theater set-up. In that set up the project is pointed at a mirror which bounces and expands the picture to the right size.

What to look for in a projector: (please note that these specs are minimums)]]>Jim Jannard and the Red Teamtommy@inconceivableproductions.comdigtal cinemafilm2007-12-24T08:33:10-08:00http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Thank%20you%20Jim%20Jannard.html#unique-entry-id-4http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/Thank%20you%20Jim%20Jannard.html#unique-entry-id-4
An open letter to Jim Jannard and the RED Team Merry Christmas! and a Happy New Year. Its been a wild year, and just want to thank you Jim for your vision and following your guts.

The Red Team, thank you also for having the guts to follow a guy with a vision. It must have been hard in the beginning when all you had was an idea and the thought that it was possible to build something that everyone in the industry said couldn't be done. ]]>Inconceivable productions needs scriptstommy@inconceivableproductions.comfilmvideo2007-12-15T20:55:29-08:00http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/IP%20Needs%20Scripts.html#unique-entry-id-3http://www.inconceivableproductions.com/index_files/IP%20Needs%20Scripts.html#unique-entry-id-3

We are primarily looking for a script that would be rated “PG” or “G”.  We offer a crew with a RED ONE camera, and a Post Production Facility.

Is anyone in the process of considering Final Cut Pro Studio in your workflow? This is the time to get onboard. With the announcement at NAB of the new Studio 2, Apple has really raised the bar again. The biggest changes are to “Motion” and the addition of “Color”. One of the more interesting things for us is the news that Apple was working with the RED team right from the get go. The ability to edit 4K Redcode right in FCP is amazing ]]>
