The summer classes has come to an end and it has been a fun time for me. For my Digital Multimedia class, I pushed them to the advanced level of Photoshop and introduced them to Vector illustration using Adobe Illustrator. For their final project, I taught them how to use the basics of flash to create a simple portfolio showcasing their outputs in class. Here are some my favorite works using illustrator to create text effects.
Ateneo de Zamboanga Univesity is delighted to announce the publication of a limited-edition coffee table book that tells an extraordinary story of a school’s successes surmounting challenges and uncertainties. Written by Zamboangueño scholars, Pro Deo et Patria: 100 Years of Ateneo de Zamboanga, 1912-2012 traces the history of Ateneo de Zamboanga, from its humble beginnings as a small parochial school in 1912 through its postwar rebuilding and its development into a University.
It is a story of an institution that has been faithful to its mission as a Jesuit and Catholic university in Western Mindanao, intent on transforming lives in a community as fortunes ebb and flow over time. This 200-page coffee table book is a celebration of 100 years of ADZU’s history and tradition of Excellence, Spirituality, and Citizenship with rare photographs of events, places, and people. This beautifully depicted and all-color volume by Ma. Christina A. Cañones, Aireen Barrios Arnuco, PhD, and Monabelle B. Delgado, MA is a valuable reference, a collector’s item, and an ideal gift. Due for release this year, the book is available for early ordering now.

It was elections day, and like every other responsible Filipino, me and my family went a public school to vote. After almost 3 hours of queuing, I finally got to cast my ballot and thank God, the PCOS machine didn't malfunction. It's 11am and the crew is at Lantaka Hotel already documenting the preparations for the big wedding of Sean and Aprille.
So, i've been teaching Digital Multimedia again this summer but for IT students this time. We're done with Advanced Photoshop lessons and it's time for them to learn vectors with Illustrator. This week, I gave them activities to practice their vector muscles by tracing shapes with the Pen Tool. It is the most basic skill one must have in order to make vectors but takes a lot of time to master vector Illustration. I asked them create their own logos based on their made-up company or organization. Some were pretty okay, others impressed me but most were just blah. XD hehe. Anywyas, here are some of the output of my students.
Here's another Tausug wedding featuring Zamboanga's famous family, Nuño and Salih. Nuño are very well known in Taluksangay, an old Muslim community in the east coast of the city. Their wedding was filled with prominent personalities and persons with big names. Nonetheless, the wedding is all about the couple. Check out our transitions especially with groom who was very friendly and game to whatever directions we gave him. Here's Abdel and Ain as they tie the knot in their traditional Muslim wedding and Sharia ceremony.
Ghapz and Shamie works in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia as nurses. The bride, Shamie, is from Cebu, and they decided to have their Sharia wedding here in Zamboanga. Her family flew here to witness her momentous occasion in life. They were filled with emotions showing how they truly love the bride. The tall and handsome groom vowed to love her forever starting in this beautiful ceremony. Their pagkawin happened at Pavilion while the elegant Sharia rites happened at Astoria Regency.
