vg6. Autumn Leaves; New City 2015. Filming the Exhibition Pieces

Saturday is Studio work day.  Since I had not done any photographing the opening last week, I started with the idea to film the work that is presently on display in Val Gal.  I had a brand new Optex PRT50 Summit Tripod to try out first.  The tripod was bought last Monday but I wanted to read the instructions and assemble it without breaking anything. So it stood carefully placed in its box in a corner of Rose Room.  Saturday morning was the first time I could bring myself to even attempt it.  I opened the box carefully and found no instructions.  A search on line to register the tripod bore no fruit.  the best I could was find it listed in the store products and sign up for the eletters on the store.  It said on the box, in big letters, five year guarantee, so I suppose I have to keep the store receipt.  There is no other proof of purchase.

That done I figured that I would just have to go by instinct and what I had learned to do with the other tripod.  After lunch I would film the Autumn Leaves: New City. 2015  exhibit.  Usually I film just on Sundays but I was behind schedule so I took Saturday to film just the artwork in the Corridor Gallery.  Sunday  I planned to go through the gallery again this time taking pictures of myself with the exhibit pieces.

I went downstairs and got the luggage trolley.  I had a wooden folding table and the tripod fit on it quite nicely without wobbling.  Last week I went to check out what was wrong with the tripod and found out the camera was broken and could not work properly with a tripod.  Cameras are expensive so I really didn't relish the fact of buying a new one.  Luckly my classic old Nikon Coolpix was in perfect working order at least in regards to the tripod.

I placed the camera on the tripod and the tripod on the trolley. I was a little shaky with how to use the legs which were long and had three moving pieces to adjust the height.  I eventually got all three legs equal and with the camera settings on Museum I pushed the trolley down the Hallway Gallery and took a  picture of each and every exhibition piece.  First one side, then the other.

The pictures came out fine to begin with.  I have the Sony photo app and the Windows app and with the both of them I did a fairly professional job of adjusting, straightening and cropping the images. Sony makes it easy to put the date on the pictures and I used a textbox with the Windows. to add my name. The computer adjustments are almost done and very soon the pictures will be ready to put on the social network.

I will be making some changes to some of the Corridor Gallery pieces.  When new ones come in I will film them individually.  Next Saturday I want to start on the Rose Studio Gallery work.  Monday I am going to join Gliffy charts on Google and I will be adding some beautifully colored  Art Fabio Co. organigrammes to decorate my room.à and organize my work.

The Before Poster Series

Before posters   The arts in a poor community   When I moved into the downtown sector the plateau Montreal was a very poor community   Although the community was very poor it was densely populated. There were a lot of dry goods establishments mixed with a fair amount of family tolerated prostitution. The police sergeant had taken it upon himself to clean up the area so there were a lot of sponsored artistic establishments Mostly beginning dressmakers. These were young designers that needed a lot of cheap space and fast and they were willing and able to physically fight for their career.  They had many ethnic grocery stores that promoted regional fruits and vegetables  four different kinds of cooking needs. You had Portuguese you had English you had Chinese etc. These culturally diverse grocery stores exist to this very day. You also had a lot of temporary space that could be rented very cheaply for performance. It is from these performances can I tak...

vg39. Creative Strategy for a newspaper Advertiser: Clearosil Perfecto Wash

The book I am reading says to practice making a creative  marketing strategy by using other products. this one is an online newspaper ad.  here goes: The purpose of Clearosil Perfecto wash advertising is to show that the user of this soap will have clear skin no matter what kind of food she eats.  So she can go out with all sorts of great looking people and eat fabulous junk food. This will be accomplished by first of all using very beautiful model in attractive surroundings and making it look very easy and practical to just use the soap and get rid of all potential problems.  The product's convenient aspect is enhanced by a very modern looking funky dispenser that gives the soap with very little effort. The ad will be humorous and the models will maintain her good looks no matter what even if an accident happens: like her hat is taken off by the fan. Tell me how I rate by sending your score from one to ten to kfabian.kathynotes@gmail.com.
