ILLUMINATION-STUDIO <--------(Website)

Yup, People good news, my website is up finally. It took me a few days because I didnt want to spend any dime to hire someone else to build a website for me. So I took it into my own hands. What did I do? Well I paid for my domain and webhosting, called up godaddy.com and asked them my server name and got myself dreamweaver ( dreamweaver WHAT? ) yeah I was like an alien to that software. It took me quiet a day to learn the software and after that I was on my way to develop my first website. Please do check it out, its nothing fancy but well its a start.

Whats on the Plate?



(Exposure too much?? I think so.. but look below...the overexposed parts are the area I don't need...make use of that to brightened up darker areas that you need ;).. Also I didn't work or put in much work on this, it is for a new bar and they are sorta in a rush).

Been a bit long since I last updated my blog...anyways here it is.. I was working on some bigger scene but then I got a phone call followed by an email.. ( John I need you to design a Menu for the bar ) Like WTF!!!! To be honest I'm not really a menu designer as to what Im saying is that I dont think it has nothing much to do with a gfx though we could do it, I think all you really need is a camera and photoshop to color correct and arrange the pictures. Anyways, I dont like to upset clients ;), if they ask for it, I gotta try...and since I dont have a camera I had to create a sort of a kitchen+Bar look-ish since the bar is serving food as well I got a little extra time today I decided to make the little scene..it took me around 2 hrs to make everything, I could have put a lot more work into it but its going to be stuck up in a corner page so "WHY WORRY".


Now you see what I mean right !!

I created a lot of other extra things that I didn't use but right now I wanna eat and watch my movie as I drift off to sleep just to get up 5 hrs later and run around till 10pm.. Sigh!! Life Oh Life!!

Test Subject!

I'm thinking well having an idea about football and what cool thing I can do with it..ahh EURO fever still lingers!! So anyways tonight I was just laying out my plans in my head and then put it down on the 3D program (below). Okay the funny thing is that I spent so long trying to figure out a way to model the football, from trying to get a cheat through texturing and materials to forming it super-detailed and then I finally got hold of an article about some of the dynamic models and manipulating them. Walla!! a football in less than a minute, haha ~ Sometimes we look too far ahead for solutions when the answers are right under our nose!!
