[Life] An agency’s life

It has been a while since there is a change in my life in terms of career opportunity, but I had been offered a place in an interesting agency. The time’s not long due to I’ve decided to make a tough decision and start things on my own after 2 months of my service there. It’s a short time but fun.

The usual joint that I’ll stay before board the bus to Singapore every Sunday night. Look at OdysseyNow. Good and honest service.

[Rant] Looking towards a new direction

It could just have been more than half a year I have not been blogging officially on my life except bit and pieces on some interesting thing I have found. Been working as a designer in Singapore for the past 2 year, a lot of thing has grown to me, in all aspects. And there’s a period of time I felt strongly that I have to move on and look for something that I believe and meant to do in the beginning but just because limited by resources.

Pictures below are taken somewhere around the last month of me in Yolk. It’s good time.

[Random] Facts or Fallacy?

Sometimes it really makes you wonder why is the effort always geared towards making a campaign full of shit rather than improving their quality of service? I mean its a no brainer when the internet is flooded with mass roar on users that is using their product/service. What makes them think? It’s really funny somehow to see how a random search can contribute to something this big. lol.

The uproar

lol

The product

p.s. – I doubt those people in the picture in real life “are that happy” using the service compared to above lol.

[Inspiration] 574 Clips

574clips

http://574clips.com/

I personally felt this is a great effort and campaign to touch people’s heart that is really into sneakers. What they do is to individually film 480 Videos (of 20 seconds) and 480 Polaroid pictures on a limited edition of the NB shoes.

And user/people that is interested on that would have to ‘claim’ the shoe once they bought it on the store, kind like a ‘multiplayer online game’ but in a larger and “real-life” scale, a warmer approach rather than the usual ‘keyboard’ and ‘mouse’ interaction.

They believed it’s possible to edit and shot all of the videos manually, and, it’s almost half of a thousand clips to be exact. I strongly felt that the site could be better than the current one because the idea and content itself is really great but probably on a first sight, it might render some people uninterested to explore it. Love the idea and effort on the clips. Felt very personal. Read the interview.

[Experiment] Simulation of Apple Safari’s Top Sites in Flash!

Top Sites Simulation in Flash

Combining Papervision3D and AS3DMod library, I was experimenting if it is possible to create a curvy display like what Top Sites in Safari was doing. Performance wise was mediocre, as I pump up the segments in Plane, the framerate drops like crazy. I will release the code source when I clean it up. Inside’s a bit messy now.
