burning pixels

hey this is my project on the HOW DO WE FIREDANCE. it's supposed to be a website on how to learn firedance. typical eh, from a pyro fanatic? as always, do leave comments. thanks!

this is the homepage

and this is the 1st page to the tutorial.

you have my apologies for the lack of updates, and here are my flowchart and mood board for the 'HOW DO WE...' project.

fly to the moon? get a cannon! i'ts sure to work!

hey guys, i am in need of your help once more. critique please? the whole thing is based on a song called "fly me to the moon". The artist? I'm not so sure yet, i'm torn between Olivia Ong and Utada Hikaru. These are my best favorite 2 cause Olivia Ong has a really nice voice and the whole song is really laid back and serene lol (and i've heard that she's a cousin to Yao Qi too, cool!) and for Utada Hikaru, the starting kinda fits in with my animation and she sings nice as well =D so comments people!! (best u enlarge the main character's pic as well, u can see the details better). oh yea, do take note that all these were done purely in photoshop since i've never like illustrator or flash =x.

mah moon =D

it's some kinda jelly/candy thing lol~

and last but not least, my main character! =D

Well my ideas on the how to-s would be:

How to fire dance:

1.WHO AM I - Author

2.WHO ARE THEY - the target audience

3. WHAT FOR - to get an extra income.

4. 1st task - preparation

5. 2nd task - the making

6. 3rd task - the firedance moves

OUTCOME - what we learn besides the movements.

photoshop tutorial links

well this is the 4 photoshop effects tutorial websites i've found so far...well you should know what the first one would be...fire effects!!

1. http://www.bluesfear.com/tutorials/fire2.php

This is another fire effect as well but from my own personal opinion, i'd say this is kinda like another different lighting effect.

2. http://www.idigitalemotion.com/tutorials/guest/fireblast/fireblast.html

well to break away from the norm, i found a water tutorial, more like how to make realistic water effects.

3. http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutorials/waterdrops/waterdrops.htm

this tutorial was done all the way back in CS2 so i'm sure we being creative students, will make full use of this haha~

4. http://www.newtutorials.com/creating-realistic-blood-in-photoshop.htm

sweeping off the dust

oh HO! been ages since i've posted anything here, so i'll be breakin the record by posting something..my work!..aii lame i know, just being me when i'm sleepy and knowing that i've gotta stay awake - -"

Anyways, here's the web research.

the new Mustang 2010...i like =D

Next would be a website on promoting anti-smoking. Very informative website on the contents in a single cigarette butt and the common excuses used by smokers to the reason why they smoke.

After smoking prevention tips would be a website on china!

And lastly, a webpage called colour pixel =D i like the warm color used for the background and the way the information is arranged. The overall layout of the website is actually simple but gets the information tidy and yet interesting in a way =D

Whistling memory

Delicious Machine

hey should watch this one...really blows your mind away

A SHORT LOVE STORY IN STOP MOTION from Carlos Lascano on Vimeo.

A reminisce of the last few days before college started lol =D

Now I can't wait for the next sem break for the next gang hang out - -"

oh this was taken in front of a lift in pyramid...I seriously have no idea why, of all places, a lift would be a place for a cam whoring session =p oh well

Yes, apparently SOMEBODY was distracted by the lift's floor indicator thingy-majingy lol~

and a proper shot =D with everyone posing nicely with an exception of a certain few =x lol!

lol...really an enjoyable gang, it is~

lol let the nightless parade begin

soon the hols will end T T damn!

anywho, since somebody still checks out my blog and comments, i think i'll leave this one here lol.

Aii...really quiet today at work. oh yea forgot to mention in the post. I'm working as a part time in Giant, Puchong, promoting Fibre Optics, which is by far the fastest way to connect it to the net =D. There's no rip off in the offers they have unlike the others like streamyx...especially streamyx ==" But the thing is that the coverage is still expanding as it's kinda new. But the offer's really worth it =D.

Oh and not to mention, i'll be in S'pore until Monday so yea...i'll be missing the coming Pc fair T T crap...well if anything, i'll send my lil minion (sister) to get me some stuff on my list =p lol~ And speaking of which, I've never really been to S'pore as long as I could remember =/ so this will definitely be something worth remembering, i hope?

I for one person have been obsessed with photoshop eversince i've started using it in sem 2. so take your pick. which do u like?

okay take your pick

Which one's better?
