What are you waiting for?

Wishing on a shooting star
But dreams alone won't get you far
Can’t deny your feelings anymore
The world is waiting right outside your door
What are you waiting for?

Come on, here’s your chance
Don’t let it slip right through your hands
Are you ready for the ride of your life?
Your dreams are riding on the wind
Just reach out and pull them in and
Get ready for the ride of your life
The ride of your life

In your heart, you know what must do
You've only got yourself to answer to
Don’t let fear of fallen hold you down
Your spirit's flying high above the clouds
You're glory bound

Come on here’s your chance
Don’t let it slip right through your hands
Are you ready, for the ride of your life
Your dreams are riding on the wind
Just reach out and pull them in and
Get ready for the ride of your life

You are on your way no looking back
There’s no future living in the past
You’re free at last yeah
You’re free at last

Come on here’s your chance
Don’t let it slip right through your hands
Are you ready for the ride of your life yea
Your dreams are riding on the wind
Just reach out and pull them in and
Get ready for the ride of your life
Ride of your life

Come on, come on get ready
Yea, yea, yea
Your dreams are riding on the wind
Just reach out and pull them in
Get ready for the ride of your life

project A...FINISHED

Monochrome Photography (Black & White Photography)

Nhu Tran, u3025370

Introduction
I have always been interested in photography as an art form. All through high school I was doing art, but, it was the boring - draw this bowl of fruit - art. However in Year 10, I chose to pick up some Photography, and love it. How to take photos, how to process it, I even loved all the theory behind it. For the end of semester major art work, we had to create an art piece using photos. We were given the opportunity to use black & white (b&w) or colour film. I chose the b&w, and just love it.



Production Project A Rationale
Format
The project was made on blogger, however, has the utility of a website. Blogposts have the functionality as different pages within a normal for website.

Licensing
There were two types of art forms within this project – videos and images. The images where obtained from Flickr. It was explained in the sidebar that all the images where not mine, and that clicking on the image would transfer the user to the original image on Flickr. The videos were all obtained on YouTube. The videos were placed within the sidebar, which also had a note at the bottom explaining where the videos were from and also how to find the source of the videos where.

Organisation of Site
Each image was placed within a blogpost which was categorised into groups – people, architecture, nature, objects, urban, and animals. Splitting the images into different pages, creates less delay for the user as opposed to a usual blog which has many blogposts within a blog.

Tools
In the home page, a blog was created to imitate a menu. An image from each category was placed in this blog with a rollover image; explaining what the category the image was from. A lot of HTML coding was just to format the whole exhibition, for example, linking posts together and creating the rollover images. Because the exhibition has been made similar to a website, it has a functionality for the user. A user which is not familiar to blogs, would be able to access the exhibition with much more ease.

production project A

for this assignment i chose to do question no. 2: an online exhibition of Black and White Photography. it has a very simple design. it is a blog, however, will function very like a normal website. so far i think it is all under control.

go and hav a look....
