X-mas Dinner 2006 - Lets get dis party started!!!













Here are some pics from a X-mas Dinner I had with my close friends. We decided to go for a 'Dress-up' theme this yr. I hav included this in my blog, as I feel that moments such as these, which are full of joviality and youth-fueled exuberance, transform as major influences in the mind of designers. Thus, cementing a place in a blog, now mainly focused in how, the designer that I am.....has come to be :-)
We had dinner at my friend's restaurant in the City, then went Kareoke, then back to a midnite munch back at the restaurant at bout 3, then a drunken haze of going to a park near the water, and somehow ending into a loft talking to a barrister and his friends about capital punishment, b4 crashing at a friend's house until I felt well enough to go home. The night's happenings have now become legend... Good times, Good times by all.

Designers in a User-generated medium must offer Users trails to their Resources. . . Cos Sharing is Caring Y'all!!!

Above is my Showreel of the scenes I had inbetweened as an intermediate IB at DisneyToon Studios Australia.

The advent of Web 2.0 services can be viewed as extending a familiarity of the importance and value of graphic design across disciplines (Gromala 55) as a designer acting within such a community can assist in a role of “creative interlocutor”. Traub and Lipkin describe a creative interlocutor as a navigator of associative trails of thought and resource, who enables others to freely and creatively manage their human interests. This individual is one who is integrated: his creativity functions as part of an organic part of society, and he acts to connect for the common good…In doing so, he enables others to further their creative potentials (in Heller 82).
