About this website

Surrey filmmaking web site inspite of Frontpage!

This web site for Surrey Border Film & Video Makers has been built up since the Summer of 2002 by the club's Public Relations Officer. Most of the layout is arranged using tables with the assistance (or is it hindrance?) of Front Page. The pictures are taken mainly with a Sony 3m pixel still digital camera and then processed using Photoshop. For many pictures a duplicate layer is made and the main characters extracted in the upper layer. The remaining background is then given a slight blur while the main characters may have important aspects enhanced to bring them forward. The layers are then merged and the picture 'saved for the web'  at a pixel size to fit the candidate space. In this way I trust the page size is kept to a minimum to help the speed of loading using a modem while retaining just enough detail in the pictures. Let me know if you think I have compromised in quality too far.
