The very first lesson I have learnt in Advertising Photography. A subject where we mainly take on our products or models in a studio and proceed a series of commercial related photography session. This would be my first time officially or really-know-what-I-am-doing the lightings.
The image above, we used only one light/strobe. Do you believe it?
About this, we had a small challenge to create a natural outer glow around the subject. I had my thought deep for a short while and I bloody found a solution by using 2 strobes (which we were limited to 2 units ONLY). The technique is... come to the studio I'll let you know!
Other than a simple strobe, we had rediscover strobe into a snoot. It's a more focused source of light onto subject or object. Gel was placed in front of the snoot to create a different ambient or simply the color. Originally, the image above are not in a greenish color which I did some retouching.
Finally, I like to ask for any fresh models or interested party to work with me in my assignments. In exchange, I could bring up a series of your own portfolio with no charge. Boys or girls are welcomed with both of my open hands. If you trust me, I'll definitely bring one of the quality work of mine to your portfolio in this matter.

Yay, just got back from yet another premier screening. Not to mention, I have it in 3D this time!
Summmary When the crew of the Enterprise is called back home, they find an unstoppable force of terror from within their own organization has detonated the fleet and everything it stands for, leaving our world in a state of crisis.
I was looking forward to this movie after its trailer came out. It attracts me more with the short preview during my visit on Iron Man 3 IMAX 3D.
Star Trek Into Darkness got my full attention on its first three quarters, but it slowly push me away with the ending. I can say that most of the people would comment "The ending is meh." The visual was stunning, regardless the awesome Iron Man 3. From this, I totally suggest you to watch it in 3D.
Including the stronger action scene than the previous, I'd b*tchslap a 3.5/5 on Star Trek Into Darkness.

This is pretty much all. I was hiatus as I have my own commitment with my studies. Designer's life ain't easy as you think after all. But one more year, and I'll have a certain title in my career.

It's been a while but 'real' magic brings me back!
Sypnosis
When small-time magician Oscar Diggs (James Franco) pulls one flimflam too many, he finds himself hurled into the fantastical Land of Oz where he must somehow transform himself into the great wizard—and just maybe into a better man as well.
4:3 Ratio
Yes, it goes on with 4:3 at the beginning. It was kind of introduction on Oscar's story. Then only moved to a wonderful colored widescreen which what we usually enjoy with. Something different on the camera play.
Magical?
It has a totally vibrant colored CG behind. But there has been a slight problem with its rendering during the starting of the Oz World. First I thought the splits was a blur effect or either my eyes are blurred but in fact it's some technical issue on it. It discomfort my eyes. But overall it does a great job on the CG, especially the China doll.
Greatness in Oz?
It might be good or bad to anyone. It wasn't the best outcome I expected. A lot of predictable moments to make it not so great at a point.
"Not so good, not that bad" - Adrian Sim
What's my rating? I'll give a 3.5/5 for it. Minus on the discomfort render, plus point on the CG.
Aside from that, I really love the intro where they played with animated paper sculpture and things. My eyes were totally focused on those details even it wasn't the important parts.
Girls' Generation in Malaysia, finally... The South Korea popular girl group, Girls' Generation had heat up all the fans in Malaysia on the night of March 23 outside Petronas Twin Towers
A blogger that rather sarcastic but comes with black humor. I venture myself into photography in 2010 and some of my works displayed here. I am experienced in getting an event covered, mostly concert. You may check the archive on Kaggregate.com. I tweet like the other normal social feeders but in an aggressive manner which I'm always into K-pop.
