I am PROUD of myself!

2010-12-21T12:35:00.005+08:00

Little did I know I will get this far when I first enter LimKokWing University, with no background of arts knowledge and skill to support me, it is always going to be hard on the beginning. In a flash of time, I am now a graduate students like the rest of my classmates. I am proud of what I achieve there.

I wouldn't get this far without the support from all my friends, cousins and especially MY PARENTS!

Thank for the supports! =)

Make the most of yourself, for that is all there is for you!

Graduating!!!

2010-12-18T03:00:00.002+08:00

Well, in few hours time, I will be graduating and it will be the end chapter of my student's life but the best part is another new chapter of life is awaiting for me! Well, can't believe 4 years just passed like this and I do really enjoyed during this 4 years as a collage student and never regret any moment of it! Let this be the best graduation I ever had in my life for the once last time! =)

What Goes Around Comes Around!

Victoria Station

2010-09-13T23:47:00.003+08:00

Came across this pictures when I was in Victoria Station having dinner! One thing I sure miss is traveling through the ever-so convenient subway!

It 's a ten!

I was thinkin about her, thinkin about me. Thinkin about us!

EMINƎM

2010-08-06T20:23:00.006+08:00

When the word "rapper" came out from a person's mouth, who are the artists that came to your mind first? Jay Z? 50 cents? Ludacris? Kanya West? TI? Snoop Dogg? The answer is simply down to one choice, Eminem!!! Why not the rest of the above but Eminem! One of the best example is listening to the song "Lose Yourself" sang by Eminem himself! The song itself tell a story where of Eminem's character, for example, the difficulties he has to face while rapping, the insult and booing of crowds as he is a white rapper and the trouble he has to face due to his alcoholic mother and people he hangs out with! Imagine during those old times where only the black people rap and he himself being a white surrounding by all black people rapping in-front of the black people's world, the pressure he withstand, the shame he faced, the insult he carried while rapping! He do fail in the beginning but that doesn't stop him from rapping and yet he bounce back just like a hero and show the world the WHITE can rap too! And since then, there is no turning back from creating a fame for himself. And without doubt the song "Lose Yourself" is the only ever RAP SONG to received the Academy Award for Best Original Song, Oscar and Grammy Award .

Here is latest Eminem's song Love the Way You Lie featuring Rihanna

You'll be loved!

2010-06-28T23:54:00.010+08:00

I love to see you smile

Knowing that I am the one that caused that smile

I love it when you are giving me a hug

Knowing that I am the one for you

I'll always be there

To show you how much I care

I don't mind spending every moment

Letting you know that deep inside my heart is where you'll stay

If the whales can have their oceans

And angels can have their heaven

Then I, my sweetheart, I can have you =)

This the love I'll share with you always

A love that will last us all our days

It's for all these reasons and more

That's why I LOVE YOU!

If there is one place I want to be right now, it will be in your arm! ♥

See you in two weeks time, sweetheart♥! =)

Need a second to breathe!!!

2010-06-16T23:27:00.006+08:00

Never feel so exhausted until the point where everything surrounding me seem so dull! I guess this is the point where I understand how truly tired I am. Guess I won't heading to Singapore tomorrow already for my cousin's wedding! I really feel like attending this one but guess I have to let go for this time! At least my assignments for short film is nearly done!

Should say bye bye to you after tomorrow!

Just a little thought.

My heart and soul flutters,

On every tears you drop,

It is so very special,

Yet it make me feel so lost all the time,

Mistakes are bound to happen,

Yet I will learn to correct it,

Nothing is perfect in this this world,

Unless you understand the boundary of it,

If I can build a lake,

You can consider that yours,

If I can control the weather,

I will make sure everyday is sunny bright day,

I cannot build a lake neither do control the weather,

But I will always be there when you needed me the most!

Spend my whole editing the video and waiting for the render process to get done! Waiting is always the painful part but there is tea-break time for us all the time and the best part is you get to talk about the past story. Gosh, time sure do pass by fast, and I mean real fast!!!!

Tea-Break Time

Two of render and finally it is done!!!

Well, guess now, what I left is to put in the sound and I should be starting my journal tonight!!

I should stop thinking now! =(

Parachute

2010-06-11T22:01:00.006+08:00

I don't tell anyone about the way you hold my hand
I don't tell anyone about the things that we have planned
I won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to push me down
They want to see you fall (down)

Won't tell anybody how you turn my world around
I won't tell anyone how your voice is my favourite sound
Won't tell anybody
Won't tell anybody
They want to see us fall
They want to see us fall (down)

I don't need a parachute
Baby, if I've got you
Baby, if I've got you
I don't need a parachute
You're gonna catch me
You're gonna catch if I fall
Down, down, down

Don't believe the things you tell yourself so late night and
You are your own worst enemy
You'll never win the fight
Just hold on to me
I'll hold on to you
It's you and me up against the world
It's you and me

I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love
I won't fall out of,
I won't fall out of love

SUPERB!!!!!!!! =)

I just couldn't believe how fast the time has gone and it is already 20 years I have been with you! Thinking of this, I tend to miss the old times where we are stuck inside the study room every-night studying and doing homework but instead we are sharing jokes among each other, fooling around and hoping daddy won't come in and check on us!

Did you know that?

2010-05-16T03:43:00.023+08:00

Logo represent the heart of the company and it is as important as how a heart is to a human being. Just have a look at Nike, Apple, BMW, Coca-Cola and etc. Who would never want their own company logo to stand in line with all those famous logos? One thing that is very obvious in creating a good logo is to make the logo designs look very simple. No fancy or complex graphic art work is needed. But yet those famous logos are excellent memory trigger.

2. PEPSI

2010-05-14T04:36:00.005+08:00

Gosh, the hype over London still stuck around my mind. Seriously I need to get that out of my head so that I can really concentrate on the tons of assignments in-front on me. And I seriously mean TONS OF ASSIGNMENTS!!!

This is the Graphic Design Project for the exhibition!

I really feel like puking non-stop as all I do is just keep designing for this Inkredible Exhibition. And what is worst, there is still pile of different assignments waiting for me to rush and complete. I am not complaining about the insufficiency of time but it was just way too long that I am still stuck with this project. Hopefully everything will be ended nicely by next weeks with everything printed out!!!

Starbuck! =)

How I wish I could grab a starbuck at this hours and just chilled out with friends there.

TIME in a blink of eye!!!

2010-04-12T01:39:00.004+08:00

Gosh, it is already week 7 in my university's module timeline and I still can't believe it man. Just realize how TIME has passed by so fast when I was typing for the weekly design analysis review. I bet the next-time I realize it, it would be already week 15. Is there any possible ways for the TIME to slow down for the sake I still have so much things to do.

Some-more, in less than a years time, I gonna be graduating soon and studying in university is one of best things I don't wanna stop doing it atm. No matter how boring the class is, the tons of assignments being handle to me, how the lecturer always being late for the class, how hot the weathers whenever I am going for my lunch and etc, I still want to continue doing it and I want to enjoy it to the max for this one last moment in LCK.

I am gonna miss this action one days! =(

慢一點好嗎？

Sony Playstation Move

2010-03-25T20:02:00.014+08:00

Sony has finally unveiled their much speculated motion controller for the PS3 console. The Playstation Move takes obvious inspiration from the Nintendo Wii’s runaway success in this generation of the console wars.

The Playstation Move requires the Playstation Eye unit, which if you don’t already have will be available as a bundle, and offers more precise motion detection. The ball on top of the controller (look kinda weird for me but look cute anyway) actually changes colour to allow the Eye unit to detect it more accurately.

It still kinda look weird holding this Move on my hand.

It look more like a torch to me in the beginning rather than a playing game controller...

For me, I felt that there is not need for Sony to create this new controller as I still prefer the old version type of Dual Shock Controller than all other gaming controller. Maybe it will prove me wrong in the end when it comes out.

Stay tuned as the neverending geekery continues.

Retro Futuristic (Lamborghini Gallardo)

2010-03-17T16:00:00.010+08:00

It has been ages since I last post something that has anything related to the word "DESIGN". Well, the design below is part of a assignment and a contest given by the lecturer. Guess I will just let the picture do the talking as I am freaking tired now.... =(

The overall design on the Lamborghini Gallardo!

Since Jing Wen left her artwork at my laptop, I will show u guy what she done with her Lamborghini Gallardo. Hope u won't mind jing wen, as I didn't even ask you.

Awesome rith. The blending of the vector n color is just simply sensational...

Well, tht all for now! Hopefully will start blogging my blog more often from now onwards. Gonna go get some rest now as I need to hit the gym in few hours time... =)

Need You Now - Lady Antebellum

2010-03-14T01:35:00.005+08:00

Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor.
Reaching for the phone 'cuz I can't fight it anymore.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
For me it happens all the time.
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now.

Another shot of whiskey, can't stopping looking at the door.
Wishing you'd come sweeping in the way you did before.
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind?
For me it happens all the time.
It's a quarter after one, I'm a little drunk and I need you now.
Said I wouldn't call but I lost all control and I need you now.
And I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now.

Oh whoa
Yes I'd rather hurt than feel nothing at all.
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now.
And I said I wouldn't call but I'm a little drunk
and I need you now.
Well I don't know how I can do without.
I just need you now
I just need you now.
Oh baby I need you now.

Awesome Song........

Subway Station

2009-12-10T15:50:00.016+08:00

Ever wonder how amazing can a Subway station can be? But how sadly that we will never have the chance to see it at Malaysia in my generation cause from what I seem, the country is moving ba**wards in term of everything. Let forget how great our country is for a while and turn our attention to some the most amazing subway station exist in this world.

Most of the time when we think about magnificent modern architecture, the first thought that crosses our minds are buildings and homes. My hope is that after looking at this set, you will be stunned and amazed at the vast amount of beauty and creativity found underground. From Europe to Asia, let's take a journey beneath the streets to see what subway stations around the world have to offer...

T-Centralen Metro Station - Stockholm, Sweden

Solna Centrum Metro Station - Stockholm, Sweden

Komsomolskaya Metro Station - Mosco, Russia

St.-Quirin-Platz - Munich, Germany

Dubai Metro

Museum Subway Station - Toronto, Canada

Iidabashi Station - Tokyo, Japan

Bund Sightseeing Tunnel - Shanghai, China

Well, that is just too awesome for Malaysia to handle! Let's see what what Malaysia is offering us at this moment.

Dun let the above image fool you, it may seem nice from the outside but other than that, it is totally ****! By just standing alone inside for 1 minutes, you can already witness sweat coming out all over your body. Can you imagine what will happen if you stand inside for 10 minutes? Sweating is not the best part yet. As you can noticed the picture above, there is a signal board that offer nothing at all other than just wasting the electricity. It never show the exact time the train is coming and what is the point of putting it there. The most interesting part is during the peak hours , you can actually witness what is happening below.

Just like what you see inside DISCOVERY CHANNEL!

It is better you garb something to drink first at a cafe first rather than behave like a animal and fight for place to get inside unless there is something important! Well, luckily we don't have act like a bull for food inside a restaurant, shopping and etc. =)

Zero-Power Digital Cloud

2009-11-16T02:41:00.008+08:00

What else can you expect when the next Olympic is held in London 2012? It sure gonna be the architecture that is gonna steal the show other than the opening ceremony and the world breaking record part just like what just happened during the Beijing Olympic. Zero-Power Digital Cloud will be the next big show coming up.

No, we're not talking about "the cloud" where data goes to disappear and (hopefully) be retrieved again. We're talking about an actual (well, artificial) cloud that promises to be both a real structure and a massive digital display. That's the bright idea of a team of researchers from MIT, anyway, and it's now been shortlisted in a competition designed to find a new tourist attraction to be built in London for the 2012 Olympics. Dubbed simply "The Cloud," the structure would consist of two 400-foot tall mesh towers that are linked by a series of interconnected plastic bubbles, which would themselves house an observation deck inside and be used to display everything from Olympic scores and highlights to a "barometer of the city's interests and moods" outside (that latter bit comes courtesy of the group's partnership with Google). As if that wasn't enough, the whole thing also promises to be funded entirely by micro-payments from the public (which would also determine its final size), and be completely self-powered, with it relying on a combination of solar power and regenerative braking from the lifts in the towers.

The CLOUD!

Ramps, stairs, and lifts would carry tourists to the top of the cloud. Once inside the structure, viewers would have a sweeping view of the city below. Despite displaying a constant stream of data, the cloud wouldn’t take any power from the grid.

I would like to cycle all the way up and down. It will be a good experience I bet! =)

Circle thingy (Clouds) function as TV broadcasting LIVE events. This is dope!

Simply awesome!

Even if the Cloud isn’t chosen as the winner in the city’s competition, the MIT designers are determined to build it. To that end, they have launched a fund raising website in the hopes that millions of people will provide small donations. Well, if this is really chosen as the winner, I bet I am have to launched a fund raising for my ticket to London too! XD

Apple Magic Mouse!

2009-10-22T12:05:00.006+08:00

Apple Latest Creation!!!

It began with iPhone. Then came iPod touch. Then MacBook Pro. Intuitive, smart, dynamic. Multi-Touch technology introduced a remarkably better way to interact with your portable devices — all using gestures. Now Apple has reached another milestone by bringing gestures to the desktop with a mouse that’s unlike anything ever before. It’s called Magic Mouse. It’s the world’s first Multi-Touch mouse. And while it comes standard with every new iMac, you can also add it to any Bluetooth-enabled Mac for a Multi-Touch makeover.

Magic Mouse — with its low-profile design and seamless top shell — is so sleek and dramatically different, it brings a whole new feel to the way you get around on your Mac. The Multi-Touch area covers the top surface of Magic Mouse, and the mouse itself is the button. Scroll in any direction with one finger, swipe through web pages and photos with two, and click and double-click anywhere. Inside Magic Mouse is a chip that tells it exactly what you want to do. Which means Magic Mouse won’t confuse a scroll with a swipe. It even knows when you’re just resting your hand on it.

Magic Mouse uses powerful laser tracking that’s far more sensitive and responsive on more surfaces than traditional optical tracking. That means it tracks with precision on nearly every surface — whether it’s a table at your favorite cafe or the desk in your home office — without the need for a mousepad. Isn't it cool!

Magic Mouse retails for only $69 USD with further information now available through Apple.

The mouse do look like the Star Trek Plane! =p

Multi-purpose of function on the mouse!

Nooka x Undrcrwn!

2009-09-10T00:23:00.023+08:00

I was surfing around the net when I came across this picture, Nooka x Undrcrwn! Know what this thing is? It is actually a watch company from America and it is a new watch where Nooka crossover with Undrcrwn. By looking at the picture itself, I know the chance of getting it is so slim and some more, they are normally limited edition stuff and produced not more than 200 pieces worldwide depending on the different version. Little did I know, there is actually a shop that recently open and it sell different kinds of Nooka watches and figures stuff. It is located at Bangsar Village 2 called H5 and the opening sale of that Nooka watch I want is on 09.09.09. What a perfect way to kick off a new stuff man!

I was so eagerly to check out this Nooka thingy! That is really so nice of Xia Fong, Ting Ting n Json to go together and check how cool this Nooka can get! And also not to forget about Hao for his GPS device. It really do blow off our minds when we get to see how amazing the design of the watch can get, it is so damn different from the watch we normally see outside. The design itself own the whole H5's shop! Let me show you the picture what it actually look like!

Nooka x Undrcrwn! What a strong combination of color!

And luckily enough, I am able to get this watch and let it wrap around my hand for years to come! Besides that, the boss is really a very friendly guy, share what he know about Ron English and all those rare figure toys. He even let me wear his watch when I first entered the shop. While I busy chatting with the boss and paying for the bills, this is what the rest of my friends is doing!

Xia Fong with one of the Kaws Dissected!

Ting Ting n Json with Kaws Dissected!

The boss bring out another two limited edition of Kaws Dissected!

Bringing out more toys actually give Xia Fong more reasons to pose again! XD

The boss helping me out with the Nooka x Spongebob Limited Edition Watch! =)

Nooka x Spongebob! Available at 200 pieces worldwide!

Inside H5!

After spending around one and a half hour inside, we decided it is to eat already so we meet up with Chrystin and Tracy first as they know some good food around the Bangsar area. Tracy brought us to an Indian mamak store where they used banana leaves as thier plate. The way they served thier food is really special. Overall the food is quite nice! Guess I will just let the picutre do the talking starting from here.

This is how the food the look like!

This is how the food is being serve!

Json, Ting n Me! =)

Fong, Kristen, Tracy. Don't they three just look so alike! =p

Classic Stuff!

2009-08-21T01:53:00.005+08:00

I was in the middle of designing something when San San called me from behind asking me something. She was holding a name card on her hand. At first, I thought she wanna ask me to help her to design something but it wasn't. The things that come out of her mouth first was " Yang, do you know who design this name card?" I was thinking so hard who is the designer is. By the moment I wanna utter out a guessing name, she couldn't wait anymore, she said out the answer. I was OMFG!! Before I reveal out the answer, let me show u the name card first. The clue simply is it is done by someone who mostly we all know. "He/She is a person who love bringing more african to MSIA for good!"

This is the name card!

He is our friendly neighborhood LIM KOK WING! Even though this name card is created 10 years ago, I dun see the vector thingy have anything to do with the interior decorator! Maybe there is a deeper meaning inside it but I can't see it! Salute him! XD

COARSE jaws

2009-07-21T01:07:00.005+08:00

Just got back from the gym after experiencing the most intense training I ever have with this personal trainer today. Just one hour of training with him today for the first time make me feel like tons of steel hanging all over my body starting from the head to the toe. Maybe for him, all those weights on the equipment feel just like a few piece of roti canai whereas for me, my goodness, it is god*amn heavy! But after all, he really is a good trainer, pushing me to the limits and stating where my weakness is.

Finally, I managed to find this COARSE jaws keychain. It is a miniature noop and his camouflaged shark crown, protected in a transparent screen printed package. The picture is just right below!

I will stop it right here, gonna go rest now. Gonna post up some new stuffs related with design soon. Nith guy! =)

CIS for Limkokwing!

2009-06-12T00:31:00.003+08:00

Well, the CIS thingy is the last assignment for this semester, never really learn much from university during this semester! Well, I am supposed to create a CIS for Limkokwing Batik Academy, below will the picture of the CIS I created. Next semester will be my internship, I am really looking forward to it. Am going bak to Brunei this coming Monday for few days, hopefully managed to meet some of my old frenz and of course my parents and brother. Bruland, here I come!

Bye Bye Limcockwing!

My Logo!

2009-06-04T01:30:00.002+08:00

Create a new 3D looking logo for my InteractiveFlash assignment, so now I am going to use it as my new header for my blog. Cheer! =)

BatiK!

2009-05-12T11:36:00.012+08:00

At least for this semester, the typo module seem to be more different n useful in my opinion. The work n assignment I do until the middle part seem not useful and applicable to me in the beginning but in the end, only I realized how useful it can be if you just know how apply and make use of it. It has been a short journey (cause time pass by so fast) to get here and this final assignment is going to be over soon. So for the final assignment, it is to make use of what I have do in the beginning until now to apply everything into Batik which later the batik is gonna print out on silk and apply onto the cushion. As for now, I will just show you the batik I have done. It is done more in the contemporary way rather than the stereotype way! I will just let the pictures do all the talking! =)

The First Batik!

My Second Batik!

My Third Batik (my fav)! =)

Packaging again!!!

2009-05-07T02:02:00.004+08:00

As usual, wat else can u expect from the lecturer, it is packaging again! This time the packaging is just a margin different from other packaging I did before, I have to use natural material for it or something that look alike like natural stuff. The good thing about this project is that it is the cheapest packaging I ever did! Well, it is almost complete after all the cutting, measuring and pasting. No mood to carry on writing, just let the picture do the talking!

My whole set of packaging above!

That all for my Sweden Moose Cheese! =)

Illustration: Re-Design Ad

2009-04-08T03:42:00.007+08:00

Have been rushing this work for so many days already, finally it is done at 3:35am. We have to choose 4 ad where I have to re-designed it and color it using "POSTER COLOR" (I hate it). Not every design is done in poster, some is using art liner or acrylic. Most of my color run off after I scan it inside my laptop making me no choice but to edit it again in PS! Below is the picture!

BEEFEATER- A famous restaurant in England! Using acrylic for this!

Nokia 6210 Navigator- Using different color of art liner for

this ad! Like it. =)

Pepsi Max- Using poster color for it. I love PEPSI! XD

NIKE MERCURIAL VAPOR-My most disappointing piece of work,

shouldn't have choose it cause I hate drawing shoe!

Going to sleep now! Nith Guy!

The design inside the restaurant is just damn cool man! I really love the concept n design of it. Do u actually know, this restaurant get it's inspiration from the movie 'Forest Gump'! I nvm watch this movie, but from what I heard, a lot ppl told me it is very nice! Then come one waiter who tell me the story of Forest Gump and how this shop is form. This is really interesting man!

Before serving my meal, came the waiter again, he choose three question and ask me to answer and telling me the answer can be found inside the restaurant.

1) Where is Forest Gump?

ans: Greenbow, Alabama

2) Who is Forest Gump girlfriend?

ans: Jenny

3) Who is Gump best friend?

ans: BUBBA!

Quiksilver Packaging

2008-11-18T23:08:00.011+08:00

Well, I guess this will be last assignment I am gonna post up on here for this year. This is my final assignment for Graphic Design 2, where I am asked to design and create a new packaging from the brand you choose. In the beginning, I am doing a Nestle product with Eric Chih but some problems arise when we can't get what we want from each other. So we go for solo in the end then I decided to do this Quiksilver product. My concept here is 'Quiksilver, Apply It Anywhere!". I am not gonna talk about the design thing here cause it will take a lot of time.

In the end, I managed to finish it up on time but the main problem is the big box things that carry all my 6 packaging. Due the box being too big and in order to fix in all my six packaging, the perspex have to gonna be the same size as the big box so that it can only fit properly. Besides that , the box is gonna be larger than A2 size so the perspex which is on the side is not strong enuff to hold the water thus making one side of the box look quite weird! The other side which filled with 1/4 of sand work well. The picture will let u guy understand more later.

Well, who I have to thank here is of course the people from the printing shop who are Chee Shing and Alex, it is great knowing them as they always give me the best quality of printing and giving me some tips on what should I do with it when I print out. Whenever I have any difficulties section in the packaging, the boss will always come over to help me over with it. Some more, even provide me a free ride to go home! Isn't this such an amazing printing shop. Well, their shop name is 'Color Conception'. And not forgot out also David, who have to wake up early on my presentation day to come over and pick me up to university, wanna really thank him, having another good frenz like him! Sacrifice his sleep for me! Lastly not forget Eric Chih also for giving the font of Quiksilver, saving my time on this assignment rather than going to create myself and also I wanna thank to some of frenz for supporting me and my design. THANK A LOT TO U GUY!

Well, let just enjoy the picture below! =)

Both Chee Sing and Alex helping with my stuff! =)

My FInal Typography Assignment (Cartoon Network)

2008-11-15T00:58:00.011+08:00

Well, yet another assignment done n just left the framing part and it is a done case. When the lecturer first brief me on this assignment, he show us some sample, mainly most of things is done by hand such as doing calendar, using tin can or wire can to make a letter and etc to promote the font. So I wanna do something that is completely different from what he show me if it is possible so during one nith, I keep thinking, wat should I do, suddenly photography struck my mind, I decided to do something with photography and typography together. Then the next question is wat I should I do with it, when I was about to sleep, Cartoon Network struck my mind and thus giving me all the idea wat I should do next, I came out with the concept 'Reality Come True'. This sentence is being used on Cartoon Network adv itself few years back ago. The typeface I choose is Myriad Pro! The concept simply reality is form when this font is applied!

So wat really my idea is to find a person or model and made him/her into a cartoon network characters then I would used the typo to create another person tht related to the person, the photo-shooting didnt take tht much time. Editing the part and drawing the vector is where I spent my time on! Well, hope u guy enjoy the photo! Model below: Eric Chih = Johnny Bravo, Minn = Dee Dee and Adora = Mandy!

Bfr I post the picture, I wanna say a HUGE THANK YOU to u guy really for becoming the model and sacrifice the time for me. Thank Guy! =)

Attention: All the picture below need to be see from far and not near yeah! Thank!

The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy! =)

The Dexter's Laboratory!

and lastly Johnny Bravo! XD

Finally, this will be the last presentation, after this presentation, all the heavy workload start decreasing already. Now left two more assignment to be done. OMG, wat worries me the most is the time is passing by too fast, school life and university is always the best times for having all the fun, sometimes I m really curious y ppl r so afraid of going to uni n rather spend thier time staying inside their own room. Maybe I just dun understand, hahahah! Nvm about tht, let get to the main topic, I was really glad to see all my frenz putting the effort in taking the photograph and also to see everyone of them improving day by day which is really a very good things. I will like congrats all my frenz on all thier assignment they done this semester! Without them, BPD 4 wouldn't be a such a great and yet extra-ordinary class. Below will some pictures taken during tht day! Enjoyz!

L'Oreal (Photography Final Assignment)

2008-10-30T01:11:00.002+08:00

Woah, finally I m done with this assignment, feel so refreshed after all the chaos in taking the lips, well, 7 more assignment to go! Taking this lips were nvm easy especially the lighting part, some more have to torture my model for two days. I really have to thank AH HO for borrowing me the close-up filter, if not I may not be able to get tht type of clearness in the image, and of course a big THANK to STEF QUAH again! She really has been a good help to me all this while, skipping her class for the photo shoot and whenever I asked to do this n that, she will just do tht, thank again! It took me two days to complete taking all the pictures, the first day has been bad, I wanna her to bite the strawberry but the outcome of the photo isn't that nice, changing all over the placing the strawberry didn't has a nice outcome also and the time is running out fast so might as take again the next day.

Next days, I changed to a new concept where I applied all those type of shinning stuff on her lips! The outcome did turn out something I liked. The most suffering is the editing part, being a raw file itself, it take up so many mb for one file thus making my laptop lag, luckily still able to cope with it. Well, I don't feel like typing already, still tons of assignment to do, will let the pictures do the taking. Enjoyz! =)

The first one! Eric Chih's favorite! =)

The Second One. My Personal Favorite! Elegance & Sexy! Hahaha! =)

The Third One! My concept is =

'The Lipstick That Tells A Story, Bringing Along The Scents And Charm'

Lastly the final one, I will frame this one up! 16 hours of non-stop

editing, thank god, it end now! Enjoyz! =)

BUSY WEEK!

2008-10-29T16:00:00.000+08:00

It has been quite some time since I last post, tht is due to the heavy workloads given by the lecturer. I needed to start my works as early as possible due to the fact that I really hate last minutes work. So during this few weeks, my room is packed with of packaging stuff, paper, boxes and not to forget out, lot of PERSPEX! My room is becoming more congested day by day, hope I can get all this things clear out by week 15.

During this few days, frenz has being asking me to show them my packaging but I haven't really finish it yet so I decided to take some photo of which I have done and show it here. =)

My room fill with perspex and all type of stuff!

Well, see the table on the left, tht table is suppose to used for

cutting stuff, drawing & tracing and measuring but now fill over

with my packaging stuff, luckily I have a second table to work on! =)

Lastly, tht is some of the packaging I done at least for now! =) Enjoyz!

At least for this one hour!

2008-10-16T19:17:00.000+08:00

OMG, during this few weeks, I spend most of my time on assignment only, no time for entertainment at all, it is like living in world with assignment onli! My god, but since I have a hour free now so I decided to post up the post I should have post long ago! Adora keep asking me when so at least now I have the precious time to upload it.

It was a Computer Graphic assignment where we are suppose to do a photo montage of ourself or someone else showing what is going to happen to us in future time, I think it is something like this for the topic. =) So I was rushing this project for few days already and the outcome is really s**k, but since I know I will re-do it again no matter wat happened so I decided not deleted this file first. Then the next day, when I reach uni, Adora keep saying she wanna see mine since she show me her one liao, then she keep laughing here and there stating the pciture is VERY CUTE, I was like wth, hahahahahah, then came Eric Chih and Miin, they say cute also. Later onto the day, Tze Yee say cute also! *pengsan*

Since they say it is cute, it would be really bad if I didn't do them a picture of them in the montage thing. So, I did them a free picture, "IT IS FREE GUY"! hahahahahaha ><

Now, I really know why they say cute already! Isn't is cute? =)

Now, off to my packaging assignment! Will upload soon enuff! =)

Outdoor Fashion Shooting

2008-10-10T22:13:00.000+08:00

That garden is really a very nice area for taking pictures but there is something that keep obstructing me from taking some pictures at some area due to there is a lots of tree there, making it impossible for the sunlight to shine onto Stef's face thus making some of the picture quite dark. Then David said there is still a park around his house there where got really nice too, so we decided to move to that area n give it another try again. I really have to thank David for this two days bringing us here n there, helping us at some point, thank man! =)

I like this one! =)

Another one.

Then by the time we reach Desa Park City, the weather is getting hotter n hotter thus making the model hard to shoot again, she is finding it hard to open the eye due to the brightness of the sun, so we have to find another area around there, then do the shooting at different area but the best part is when we get to a platform where is there is a nice background and clear big window in front window in front of here so Stef can used the window to try do some pose which suits her before I start taking pictures of it. Finally, I managed to get everything done bfr the sun got hotter then off we go and have our dim sum! It is always nice to eat with old frenz. =)

Below is the picture! Enjoyz! =)

She love this pose. LOL!

On the small bridge there.

Nice rith? =)

The picture tht lecturer approve, even-though there is a lot of noise on the face, but the lecturer keep insisting to used this photo for the magazine layout. =)

And lastly, a picture of me and my model Stef Quah. End of it! =)

Night Outdoor Model Shooting

2008-10-10T21:04:00.000+08:00

As for the nith outdoor model shooting section, first of all, I was planning for a morning shooting at some garden park but Stef Quah says trying at night would be nicer and more special. Since it is not that easy shooting at night especially when u wanna get a clear shot on the face. But since I am in Kepong alderi, y dun give it a try. During that Thursday night, David bring us to the Curve there cause I want my background to have a lot high buildings, on the way walking to the Curve from the car park, it was quite embarrassing cause we have carry all sort of stuff, from a big reflector to tripod and all Stef punya extra accessories, some more we are not professional yet, hahaha. When we reach there, it was raining, at one point, Stef has to stand under the rain with an umbrella of course for 30 seconds without moving cause the light there is not bright enuff, some more I can't shoot so close to her since it is raining. The most frustrating thing is I dun know y there is still a lot noise on her face even-though my ISO is onli 100 - 200, I jus dun get it. So during that nith, no many clear picture were managed to catch due to a lot of reasons but since it was just a try out onli, at least I still learn something. =)

This is shot between the Curve and Cineleisure Mall, so many ppl walking around making it so hard to shoot! =)

We shoot here for so long! This is the part where the noise occur but I really want to thank Stef for her patient in waiting and keep posing all over n over agian. Thank a lot ya! =)

Model Shooting!

2008-10-07T16:03:00.002+08:00

The assignment for my next photography module, model shooting! After learning the basic of the studio lighting, we are suppose to used all that for the model shooting. Shooting in the studio is divided into two different type of categories which are the high key and the low key. The other option is that you can shoot outdoor too. So I choose one photo to be shoot in studio and the other one on the outdoor. As for the model, I find one of my old classmates Stef Quah (elephant) for the role of the model. So I start the shooting during the raya break inside Atudio 3. So as usual, she was late for the shooting! In the beginning, there was already 6-7 lights ready, so I try to test the lighting first along with shooting some photo. After taking few pictures, I go over n ask Ah Hok, is this consider high key n any other area need to be repaired. He say the left side tone's color is not that great, so he bring over another 2 lights and ask me attached it again. Woah, I was like, 9 lights, wth.............. then I tried again to shoot again, the tone do appeared more perfectly on both side. So I began with my first model shooting, shoot! shoot! shoot! ...................... By the way, I have to thank Shern Ai for helping Stef with the posing and other stuff, thank ya! And not to forget, I want to thank Stef Quah too for being my model, thank a lot ya! =)

Below is the picture of the model shoot by by me. Enjoyz. =)

This is the one I like the most! No Photoshop at all. =)

Posing! =)

And Again!

Fire On Ice!

2008-09-30T19:41:00.000+08:00

Now for the assignment of the Photography, we are ordered to take two picture of model, either in studio or outdoor, and a picture of still-life thing. So, I started off with taking the picture of still life first as my model is not free at all until Raya Break.........

Firstly, my intention is to capture a candle tht has water lighted on top of it instead of fire. The concept is to have four candles, with three candles lighted with fire and the other one with a drop of water lighted on top of it........ This was the hardest photo I have taken in my life at this point.... Finally I managed to catch it after shooting more 100 photos of it just to get a perfect one but in the end I drop this idea as too much of photo manipulations is needed for it, somemore the result doesn't look so good compare to the one I wanted to take in the first place.

So another idea struck while I m doing my research on fire, then I decided to shoot fire tht is lighted on top of the ice. On Thursday, after my Design Heritage class, I rushed over to the photo lab to set up all the lighting equipment before getting ready to shoot. I asked Eric Chih to come over help me when he is finished eating with his gf. After taking some time to get the correct light reflect on the ice, I start shooting liao. As the ice melt very fast inside the studio, I have to keep asking Joanne to bring me a new cup of ice. Thank Joanne for all this trouble..... Then come Eric Chih who keep helping me arrange the ice in a more nicer way n keep everything in a more perspective way! He really has been a great help to me all this while, thank bro! Then it was during the last moment of the shooting where Eric Chih pour a big bottle of ice onto the per-spec for me to get a final shoot of it. Actually the lecturer alderi approve the photo but I was not so happy with the result, then it was the last photo tht I shoot that it really satisfy me at least! Then my lecturer have look at it n decided that the last photo is better than the previous so I choose tht as my still-life assignment. By the way, the model shooting is coming up next! Dun miss it yeah! =)

Setting up everything tht is needed inside Studio 4.

Fire On Ice! After editing the contrast. =)

My Book Conceptual 'MARVEL SUPERHEROES IDENTITY'

2008-09-25T22:45:00.000+08:00

My first assignment for my Graphic Design is to create a book with at least 40 pages inside excluding all the contents n introduction part. After thinking for some time, I decided to choose MARVEL as my topic due to the reason I m being a Marvel's fan myself. Whenever I designed the things I like, I will automatically add in more effort n desire in doing it, wells tht's me. ><

Supposedly, my topic will be "Marvel Superheores Biodata but ERiC CHiH say that using the word "Identity' look more professional so I tried to apply it n it really do sound nicer n professional, hahahahaha. Thank ya! The layout inside about the Marvel's identity is mostly the same as I try to make it easy for both kids and adult to read n enjoy it. I applied the photo montage things for almost 99% inside the book, every picture is being edited n I jus enjoy doing it. Besides jus creating the book, I also printed my main Marvel's design on the shirt. Then lastly I created a packaging for it, I try to make the packaging look like a file and also have a function of it so people can use it too. Well, I will let te picture do all talking.......... enjoyzzzzzzzz =)

My first T-Shirt printing

2008-09-20T12:21:00.000+08:00

I decided to make myself a T-Shirt based on my Marvel's Design for the book conceptual free gift. After finishing designing the Marvel design, I ask Adora for the location of the printing shop, she say she will be at that area too tomolow.

So the next day, after my BM class, my frenz bring me over to Times Square, and I travel from there to Pasar Seni, upon reaching, I call Adora n ask where is she, she say she is at Old Town, at first i tot it is somewhere around tht area, so I decided to search myself. Then I walked all the way to the end of the Petaling Street n still couldn't find it, then I call her again, then she say it is at the other direction. OMG, I have to walk all the way n start all over again to the area, but it didnt took for me to find it. Then finally I managed to meet her, get my shirt done printing then quickly rush over to Pudu to meet cousins where we have to rush bak to Johor for her cousins weddings..........

Enjoyz my shirt pic...... =)

My First Human Vector Drawing

2008-09-12T18:20:00.000+08:00

I m being given an assignment of drawing a human vector for my computer graphic, I can either choose myself as the portrait or someone else. So I choose myself as the portrait to draw. When the lecturer was showing us the sample of the vector, the whole class was like OMG, tht would be too hard to draw bah. The examples shown was too amazing, but wat to do, we as a designer should know how to do this...........

Below will show the process of doing the illustrator. Enjoyz =)

I started off with head first!

Then color it, the mouth is actually the hardest part.

The jacket and jean part!

I changed the skin color tone to a lighter color and reconstruct the mouth again!

Touch up for the face, took me 3 hours for it!

The Preview of it!

The Final Outcome of it! =)

Avril Lavigne's Concert

2008-09-01T01:03:00.000+08:00

Little did I know it will turn to be such an amazing concert by Avril. It took Eric and me around 5 damn hour of standing and 1 hour of raining hitting on us before the concert finally started, but at least we get a nice front standing row. =)

The atmosphere is just so amazing, every1 was shouting Avril's name, and can't wait for Avril to come out....... By the time she come out, the atmosphere is just indescribable....... some more, there is a feeling of earthquake on the ground, as if a King Kong is jumping on the field.........

She start the concert with her latest album hit song 'Girlfriends'. All her song is just amazing, it is far off nicer than listen to the cd one. She end the concert with one her old song 'Ska8er Boy'... The onli bad things about the concert is the show lasted less than 1 1/2 hour due to the stupid protester protesting outside (they r really the most stupid ppl I ever seen!)

Omg, by te way, four of my frenz who buy the cheapest ticket can't manage to see the show clearly, and the worst thing is that they can't even listen clearly to the music due to they are being separated too far to the stage ......... Hope this video will help them.

Overall I will let the video do the talking rather than typing all wat happen there. Enjoyz the video. =)
