Gothic Stuff

5:37 PM
This week has been such a busy week for me. Our manager in Seed Interactive has been out of town and i was the one who took charge in our activities for the week.. We had a video and photo shoot for a debutante for her trailer/invitation for her party. The theme is gothic and the shooting took place at the lush mountains and grasslands of Pasonanca. I have to create a one minute cinematic trailer in after effects and burn a copies which will be released this week. I already made the CD cover that i edited in photoshop. Here it is! :D


Talking about gothic stuff, i'm really excited for Tim Burton's next film. It is a stop motion animation which he used in his famous gothic films like Nightmare Before Christmas, Coraline and Corpse Bride. Burton will be recreating The Addams Family which is one of my favorite cartoons when i was a kid. My fascination for gothic and macabre is a result of watching the cartoon series. Anyways, Burton will be using puppets like what he did in the films that i mentioned. He will be using the original character designs of American cartoonist Charles Addams, the creator of The Addams Family. This will really be a beautiful movie for sure so ill be watching out for updates about this movie. So that's it! I'll leave you with the famous theme song of the Addams Family. da da da da, snap snap!


When & Ann Coffee Table Book Preview

1:14 AM
So this is my 3rd graphic coffeetable book that i laid out for a few days because of my tight schedule. The couple here is When and Ann who were the first couple who had digital art for their prenup with the butterfly concept. I already finished the 20-page book but im still waiting for it to be proof read, and when i say page i meant spread (according to the printer). I used floral/ornamental designs with palettes of pinks, purples and reds. I also incorporated some illustrations and dreamy artworks like Van Gogh's starry night, and some Si Scott inspired vectors. So here's some sneak peak of the coffeetable book of When and Ann. Coming soon...

Credits to Jan Santos and Ryann Elumba for the photography and deviantArt for the resources that i used in making this book. You can see my second coffee table book / story book layout here.

Trebor Z AudioVisuals

10:00 PM
If you talk about videography in Zamboanga, you might be talking about this company. They are Zamboanga's finest in terms of videography for events. Our team have worked with them for the past few weddings that we covered and its such a great pleasure to be with them. They only do videography so our photography is paired with them (usually if the other known photographers are not available). Anyways, they offer a full video coverage for events including audio visual presentations especially their Onsite presentation (SDE) . They have to be the best in onsite videography which is at par to well-known videographers like Jason Magbanua. Their works are sure to be of quality and it is, of course, supported by quality equipments, too. Their edge among the local videographers is their high-end equipments like crane, glider and high definition video cameras with led  lights. Their team is also very skilled, artistic and very professional. So for those who have events here in Zamboanga, and if you want your memorable occasions to have a quality coverage, look for Trebor Z and book them http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifbefore someone books them. And don't forget Seed Interactive for your photography and if you want, videography needs too! :D Anyways, here is a sample of an on-site video presentation of Trebor Z.

Glam & Geek: When Fashionistas and Nerds Unite

1:19 PM
This year, the College of Science and Information Technology of Ateneo de Zamboanga University will be holding their annual acquaintance party at the Grand Astoria Regency on July 25, 2010. The party's theme is all about releasing your inner geek while being fashionable at the same time. Last year the theme was HipRock where two of the most popular cultures collide, the HipHop and Rock cultures. This year, its all about glam and geek, which is a common stereotype of a CSIT student for their excellence in the field of science, mathematics and technology. The party is also a way to recognize the winners of the annual sports festival of the org, the CSITAOlympics. It is a month-long event held at the campus during the saturday afternoons of July where the CSIT students and faculty compete for different sport events. This year's acquaintance party is the third time that the entire college will be celebrating the party as one community. Despite of its diversity, the CSIT aspires to bring out the best of each departments and unite in this event. Here is the official poster of the event.

Pokemon

9:30 AM
A part of my childhood is dedicated to pokemons. In our elementary days we used to be addicted to anything that is pokemon. From the show itself to any collectible possible like pogs, trading cards, toys and even computer games (emulator). My first encounter to pokemons is not on TV. We are solid kapamilyas and the show is aired in the other network. We in the fourth grade and the show became a hit. After class my classmates were playing a game where everyone is a pokemon and they were battling in the room. I joined the game but i had no idea what pokemons are. They assigned me to Charmander whom they described as a little fire breathing dragon. It was really fun battling with them, acting like monsters with super powers, knowing each others strengths and weaknesses without any idea what pokemons are. Since then, i became addicted about the show which airs every friday night. Now, i barely watch it in Cartoon Network but still i regularly look for updates. Recently, i was browsing deviantArt and i found super cute artworks of pokemons. The last one is a great 3d model of different types of pokeballs. So enjoy the set and don't hesitate to share some of your thoughts, experiences or comments about pokemons..

On Retro, Fire Trees and Alejandro

8:07 PM
After an exhausting day of photoshoot under the toasting heat of the sun and another day of post-processing, I present you the retro prenup of Jay and Shei! My first ever prenup is actually retro-esque too but this one is a perfect embodiment of RETRO. The washed out look, vibrant colors, and 70's look fits the concept better. We took the shots at the Grandstand, Golf Beach and Abong-Abong. I really love the fire tree at golf where the flowers are in full bloom. Anyways, the last photos were taken at the office in their uniforms (the guy works in the air force.) We call it the Alejandro shots coz its dark and noir-ish, like lady gaga's video. So here are some of my top picks from the set. Enjoy the set and don't forget to comment! hehe :D

For the rest of the set, visit the Seed Interactive facebook page here. :D

Work and Logos

1:53 AM
Wow, i cant believe it's july already! It's 3 and a half months that i have been part of Seed Interactive. I really love my work coz i can really apply what i studied for four years in college. Every week has different suprises from me. Sometimes i have projects dealing with motion graphics and the next day i become an lighting assisant for a prenup. It's really fun dealing with different clients and using different softwares. This week we had a prenup photoshoot which is really tiring. I also did audio mixing for a nursing class for their acquaintance party presentation, watched eclipse (which is okay, but i should've watch Toy Story 3) and i also designed logos for some orgs. The first one is a logo for ADZU's ROTC which is an program which trains students in military science and tactics. :D The second one is for the Engineering Society.


As i end this week, i gotta have a rest. My right wrist is aching a lot for weeks now and i don't know what this is. Tomorrow i will visit ateneo to see the opening of csitaolympics. I hope they will pull it off!
