Theoretically, you can go page after page and color your actual page link, but in the site you posted there are tons.

I you know some server side programming language, you could compare the linked page to the actual page and if there’s a match, then add a class that colors the link. If you do this in an include you’ll need to do it only once.

This would be an example of a PHP function that does that:

<?php
function menup($page) {
if($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] == $page){
echo "class=\"menuWithColor\"";
}
}
?>

Then, you add the funcion to each link in a list:

I have used blown up windows as part of the composition in a satisfactory way. In a foggy day they will give you a nice soft light that you can use it in your advantage. If you use tungsten lights in your subject you can color balance for that and all the background will give you a nice contrast tint… but shooting cars I’ll shoot with daylight illumination, because of the reflexions.

If what’s outside the windows is not pretty and they’re far away, you can cover them with a semi transparent paper to give them an even look.

Mixed lights can be a creative opportunity if you don’t have a monster budget to manipulate the environment. In a car shot, however, all the windows are going to be reflected and they can be both beautiful or horrible, so take some black fabric with you and use it in the close shots to clean the reflexions.

I hope this helps.

I try to ask back “how much did you spend in your last project?”. And if they haven’t done anything like this yet, then I start defining the project. When the money question comes back, then I say: I’ll send you a budget.

When the money question comes at the first call, before any real meeting, then (in my experience) that means the client probably will be a grinder. Shooting high tends clear that question.

When I get that question I always try to give the client a range that covers what I think are their needs: “It depends on the project, for example my last video for X client was $XXX, but I also did this other project for $XXX”.

For a client to understand, I ask him how much can cost to go out with my couple in a Saturday night. If they freeze, they get the idea.

A client that expect to spend five bucks in a project will be tankful (and you too) if he finds out early that he’s totally out of range and can stop wasting his/your time.

Clients that insist in how much it’s going usually are clients that have never done a similar project before. Consider that they may never will.

If you have Premiere you can use the Media Browser to preview the contents of a P2 card.

I think you can’t do what you want with Bridge because the contents of a P2 card has audio and video separated, and they’re linked, so if you move them you mess with them.

What I have done is to separate the used clips in a project in After Effects, and compile the project files. All used files are saved in a special folder. That’s useful for storing only good takes of a card, but not very practical.

I hope this helps

Can’t you simply use your image as a background image of the paragraph? Do that using CSS.

That property will add a border that is bolder at the sides and thicker at the top and bottom.

Note that this property does not work if it is used alone. You need to use the “border-style” property to set the borders first.

Try using it like this:

.redborder
{
border-color:#ff0000;
border-style:solid;
border-width:thin thick;
}
