Social Photo Sharing: Instagram | General Setup

Instagram

What’s that — a second video tutorial today?  We couldn’t hold back on this one, and while it is a fairly simple process, Brian shows us how to make the most of setting up a new Instagram account in the 2nd of many iOS / iPhoneography / Instagram video tutorials presented on IShootReno.com.

The general setup process for a new Instagram account begins with finding Friends who are already using Instagram from sources such as your Contact List and popular social networks like Facebook and Twitter.

The setup process continues by Inviting New Friends to join you on Instagram from your Contact List, properly setting up your Public and Private Profile and finishes up with a quick walkthrough of managing important features like Push Notifications, Sharing Settings and Privacy.

NoBody Really w-The Rhythmatics ft. Anonymous Jones @ The Alley, Sparks, NV 2011-12-02

Two nights in a row this talented group of local Reno-based musicians tore the roof off the houses in which they share their ground-breaking yet old-school embracing sound with those who are bold enough to come out of their cozy, fireplace heated homes.  Once at Knitting Factory Concert House in the form of Status-FLO (opening for Sage Francis) and the next as NoBody Really w/The Rhythmatics ft. Anonymous Jones aka Chari “Knowledge” Smith of the only female-fronted live hip-hop group Northern Nevada needs to concern themselves with … Knowledge Lives Forever.

Update: It has come to light that Anonymous Jones is actually a group comprised of Tony L. Walker and Tsuyoshi “Yosh” Curtis of NoBody Really along with Chari “Knowledge” Smith of Knowledge Lives Forever, not solely Chari.

These artists, musicians … renaissance persons or whatever you may, feed off of each other’s energy while on-stage and carry many times their weight when it comes to setting a fire up underneath the proverbial behind of Reno’s underground music scene.  Like those West coast rappers have been saying since slanging tapes out the trunk of your car was a huge entrepreneurial step in marketing your music to the masses … if you don’t know, now you know.

Oh, right, camera stuff.  Shooting in RAW is definitely something that I’m kicking myself for not doing earlier (even for the ability to go back and ‘remaster’ previous shoots) and can definitely attest to furthering my overall knowledge and growth as a photographer.  The Nikon D7000 camera and Nikon 50mm f/1.8D lens which find themselves by my side as of late seemed to function well in the low-light setup The Alley is notorious for.  With aperture open to 1.8, shutter speed set at 1/250th of a second and ISO cranked up to 3200, the images were coming through a little dark, but caught enough of the light to touch up in Lightrrom 3 after the jump.  When the spotlight was caught by a performer, there seemed to be a bit of ‘burn’ in the resulting image and the color palette could be described as being overly flooded with red.  Again, nothing a bit of work in Lightroom couldn’t handle.  In fact, I’m quite proud of these images and I encourage you to click through on the ALL CAPS lettering below to view the full gallery.
