Still Life and Product Photography
Glass, porcelain, metal and labels. The greatest struggle? Wrapping everything up and commuting home without having to break anything. Yay for second studio photoshoot!
Sepia
Ola! This is me taking a quick break from my merciless pile of plates and homework.
Last Monday (01.30.2012) we had a quick shoot for our Literature subj just around the Univ because this was really a last minute take.
Shoot 5 Character Story lines in merely 1 and a half hour? Challenge accepted!

It was really last minute everything that we ended up using my Harry Potter costume robe for the Padres to wear! Haha cheers to us, guys!
Back to work!

Nicole and I had vice versa roles with this ad she made. Posting these because it’s our first take on Studio Portraiture and we’re forever amused, hee!
Who run the world? PLATES
To commemorate the end of 2nd year, 1st Semester; here goes some of my plates.
I admit I wasn’t as dedicated this sem due to so many distractions (debut,photog,terrorprofs,conflicts,misunderstandings,othercrap) but nonetheless, I still learned a lot. Will do much much better next sem!

Rebus Layout for Visual Design
Mondrian Layout for VD class again. We can choose any medium so I took advantage of it even though I knew it wouldn’t look as polished as I wanted it to be. Ano yun, “walang basagan ng trip?” haha


Figure Drawing. The darkest one of all :)) Definitely not my kind of cup but it’s always nice to learn something every once in a while even though sometimes you just really have to shove it down your throat to keep up with the expectations LOL
Modern take on Cordillera Adornments for Art History Prelims
OMG THIS PLATE. So sad I wasn’t able to finish it within the 3-4hr working time :(( Got so OC with the sketching and I think I still paint slow sdfghjkl still have too many skills to improve on

I therefore conclude I post-process inconsistently.

For Photography 1 Finals (Fashion Photog)



Dreams do come true and the feeling was indescribable.
We were informed that our class book (consists of 3 volumes) will be exhibited on the College of Fine Arts and Design Week this coming November. Yay! If you happen to drop by our building, please do check out Sinequanoe {of fashion and photography}
Teaser photo for my Photog finals plate
Quite excited with this one because I did a lot of experimentation! Cross fingers they’ll turn out good. x

ENIGMA
For our ADPRAC1 (Advertising Practice 1) Major Subject Finals, we were supposed to build an Integrated Marketing Communications Campaign for a newly-launched artist or TV show. Since our group didn’t want to go through the hassle of composing a song and all the band stuff (actually, we just really want a “dynamic” outcome haha), we’ve decided to showcase an epichardcoreshitbrix dance group instead with an upcoming concert, coached by a fallendreamer dance pioneer as a twist. Watch the video here to get my blabbering!
The video was done in the Never-Say-Die, OldSkool Windows Movie Maker. Adobe Premiere was being difficult and I was running out of patience since this was done during the hell week. After Effects and Premiere Pro, we have to bond this summer!



Check this out for more photos and campaign materials.
And alas, our “concert” teaser (view the video here)! Hahahaha it looks like a bit of a joke but our professor said that our passion for our chosen field was obvious and that she just really wanted the class to have fun instead of drowning ourselves with papers- fun stuff indeed!
After 654659875 years! GOODBYE PERSPECTIVE, GRADUATE NA ULIT AKO SAYO.
Architecture and CFAD friends, please don’t judge. Obviously, I rushed the sky thingamajig ‘cause I was too excited to finish it. Yes, I cheated with the statues. AND YES, FAIL GRASS I KNOW HAHAHAHA KAY GO ON WITH YOUR LIFE

Pre-advising shiznits yesterday, WHAT A HASSLE. I now feel for the teachers who have to chase around kiddos just for them to complete requirements, etc. Yesterday, we had to hunt a professor who wasn’t able to encode our grades with 2 of our major subjects. Yep, major headache.

I’m able to retrieve only 1 of the finals portfolios I’m expecting yesterday. Sad, I wanted the other one (Materials Subject). Here’s a glimpse of what I’m able to retrieve (from Visual Perception); it’s graded but the score’s not indicated wherever, so add more sad face here.
