Channing Tatum is a major movie star, the reigning Sexiest Man Alive, happy husband to Jenna Dewan-Tatum, and a future doable dad.
But he's also a normal guy who likes the simple things in life. Actress Mindy Kaling tweeted a screenshot of the back of an in-flight magazine, featuring quotes from herself and Channing.
Mindy's quote says, "There is no sunrise so beautiful that it is worth waking me up to see it." Channing's quote, also on beauty, reads, "Life is too short to miss out on the beautiful things like a double cheeseburger."
So maybe instead of a baby shower gift, just send Channing some coupons to In-N-Out Burger.

Seth Gabel Talks ALLEGIANCE, Playing Lincoln Lee on FRINGE, Playing a Villain on ARROW and More
by     Posted 348 days ago
Adding an extra layer of authenticity and intensity, the indie drama Allegiance is based on writer/director Mike Connors own personal experiences serving in the military while also paying tribute to the 21 million veterans living in the United States today.  The story follows Lieutenant Danny Sefton (Seth Gabel), who h...
During this recent exclusive phone interview with Collider, actor Seth Gabel (who played Lincoln Lee on the Fox TV series Fringe) talked about what made him want to be a part of this film, the type of leader his character is, how he was able to identify with the man he was portraying, what it was like to work with Bow ...
allegiance-movie-posterWhen you read this script, what made you want to be a part of it?
SETH GABEL:  What really drew me to this film was that there’s just something so simple and honest about it, that I don’t think we ever see in war films.  They’re usually so dark or dirty or intense, and sometimes they guide you to feeling a certain way against war, in general.  But, to have a film that just speaks hon...
Did you audition for this role, or did they specifically ask to see you?
GABEL:  Mike Connors, the director, and Sean Mullin, one of the producers, asked to have a meeting with me, and we sat down and talked about it.  When I found out that this was based on their experience in the National Guard and at Ground Zero, during 9/11, I realized that this was a very unique opportunity to depict a...
What type of a leader is your character, Lt. Danny Sefton?
GABEL:  Danny Sefton is a National Guard Lieutenant who gets questionably transferred out of the unit before shipping off to Iraq.  Sefton is smart, strategic and very resourceful, which is why Reyes, played by Bow Wow, asks me to help him go AWOL, just before we ship off, so he can see his dying son one last time.  Th...
allegiance-seth-gabelDid you feel like you needed to justify your character’s decisions, personally?
GABEL:  I completely related to the experience of the character.  I don’t know if I would have the courage to go to Iraq, if I was called up to do so, while having a family at home that’s counting on me and that I needed to take care of.  I could totally relate to the character’s experience because, on the one hand, yo...
So much of the emotional side of this film comes from the relationship between Sefton and Reyes.  What was it like to work with Bow Wow and develop the dynamic between your characters?
GABEL:  It was great!  We were fortunate that we had two weeks of rehearsal and we got to go through boot camp together.  That really bonded the cast.  Bow Wow and I spent a lot of time together, working on scenes and rehearsing.  Because we shot in New York City, there was a lot of traffic, so we had a lot of time tog...
allegiance-seth-gabel-1What was the boot camp experience like for you?
GABEL:  I’ve always had the fantasy of doing a boot camp for a military film, at some point.  I’ve always wanted to know what the experience is like, to feel that mounting pressure of going off to war and needing to be so present and physically aware of your body because you ultimately need to fight for your life and f...
Did this experience really give you a new appreciation for and understanding of people who dedicate their lives to defending our country?
GABEL:  Oh, definitely!  We had ex-Navy Seals and ex-Green Berets on set who were understandably intimidating, but at the same time, were some of the kindest people I’ve ever met and they had some of the biggest hearts.  I think by experiencing what they have, they have a real sense of what it means to be present in li...
allegiance-seth-gabel-bow-wow-1Now that Fringe is in its final stretch, what did you enjoy about the journey that your character took, going from guest star to recurring to regular?
GABEL:  The Fringe experience was one that really helped me grow, in so many ways.  To have the opportunity to join the show just as a guest star, and then to have been asked back, over and over again, was so validating.  I got to have the experience of being a fan of a show, getting to join it, and then getting to con...
Do you feel like your Fringe experience, especially with genre fans, helped prepare you for the attention you’re getting now for your role on Arrow?
allegiance-seth-gabel-bow-wowWhat can you say about your character, and how you approached playing somebody who’s considered a “super-villain”?
GABEL:  Oh, definitely!  It’s very possible that I’ll make future appearances, and it’s something that I would absolutely love doing.  
When you see how Stephen Amell is so physically dedicated to the series, does it inspire you to work that much harder?
As an actor, do you enjoy the opportunity to both explore a character in the long-term on a TV show and telling the full story of a character in a movie?
GABEL:  Yeah.  The difference between film and TV is so interesting.  I just did a film called Forever, that will be coming out on the festival circuit next year, and I was so pleased with the luxury of knowing where the story is going and knowing the beginning, middle and end, and not waiting for pages to come out tha...
Allegiance opens in theaters in New York on December 28th, and in Los Angeles on January 4, 2013.

I found this nice tutorial that explains how to convert a movie file to a .gif in Photoshop. Is there an analogous process in Illustrator?
share|improve this question
Mp4 and gif are both raster format. Why would you want to go via Illustrator, which is mostly a vector editor? –  naught101 Aug 6 '12 at 23:01
@naught101 So that I can make frame-by-frame vector art without first going through Photoshop. –  BBz Aug 7 '12 at 17:17
@naught101 How would you suggest I improve my question? The absence of a feature is difficult to confirm because there's often no documentation explicitly explaining its absence. Scott answered my question perfectly. –  BBz Aug 7 '12 at 17:20
I've not seen any direct tutorials. The secret to blends and non-standard shapes is small steps. It's better to blend between 4 objects than it is 2. If you're drawing frames, it may save a step or two, but it most likely won't be the be-all-end-all solution. –  Scott Aug 8 '12 at 19:56
@BBz: search the web for "vector rotoscoping" –  naught101 Aug 9 '12 at 0:56

Illustrator has no animation set up specifically. There's no structure to interpret existing animation or video within Illustrator.
In fact, the only places Illustrator even remotely addresses any sort of animation is in the ability to build layers in a sequence, and to export to swf format (Flash).
Illustrator can not interpret a video file in any way. Therefore an .mp4 would mean nothing to Illustrator. Illustrator won't even recognize an mp4 file.
Illustrator is also incapable of building gif animations. Even starting from scratch, there is no method to build a timeline or frame animation within Illustrator.
There's nothing you can do with an mp4 in Illustrator and you can not create animated gif files with Illustrator either.
In short... No. There's no analogous processes with Illustrator.

Metro Detroit boy winning battle against rare childhood cancer - KMSP-TV
Metro Detroit boy, 8, winning battle against rare childhood cancer
Posted: Updated:
Jacob Pesta (Credit: Jacob Pesta (Credit:
Hundreds of students at a local elementary school rally to support a classmate in the fight of his life. Eight-year-old Jacob Pesta is battling a rare pediatric cancer, a thalamic brain tumor, and winning.
Doctors say the second-grader at Commerce Elementary is the first child in the United States and only the seventh in the world with this diagnosis.
Pesta was first diagnosed in 2009. Since then, he has had two craniotomies, radiation and chemotherapy. He attends physical therapy year round.
Friday, hundreds of his classmates wore yellow to cheer him on and for Pediatric Cancer Awareness Month.
In spite of everything, Pesta is still able to come to school every day. He has gone two and a half years with no evidence of disease. Doctors say it will be another two and a half years before he is officially considered a survivor.
His mantra is "survivors never give up." With the support of his family, his little sister and his entire school, this brave little boy continues to fight.
His parents started a foundation called Jacob's Fight ( to raise money for pediatric research because their son doesn't want "any other children to have a brain tumor like me."
It's been a long journey, but his family says they will do whatever it takes to make sure this is a battle Pesta wins.
There is a big fundraiser Friday at the Edgewood Country Club in Commerce Township at 7:00 p.m. Tickets are $50 at the door.
