First attempt for our Final Movie.

We had a script in mind that there will be a girl who will wake up late for her school and will get ready in a hurry in a haphazardly and a funny manner. We decided to choose a morning routine because of some reasons:

1.       We went through many opening title videos on youtube and noticed that mostly the successful movies show the morning routine in the opening , atleast the types of movies we considered.

1.      2. Our age group usually gets late in the morning , and it would seem realistic. 

3.3. It would be termed in the Genre Drama , which would help solve the Suspense and Comedy dispute that arose in our group indirectly.

 4.All of us mutually agreed on this one, without other suggesting it as a suitable idea

dThe shots were all taken but they were on a Tape and could not be edited that we decided to change the location and the characters. We then decided to make a movie about a boy who is lazy and is a looser at everything he does. The location would now change as now we needed a boys room.
the mind map we did is as follows:

The story board for our film was as follows:

The location we decided for our film was a room with very limited furniture.

The first attempt for our movie produced the result

Personalizing my Blog

Today i decided to personalize my blog.
A friend of mine , has a very good collection of Camera's , i made him hold it and i took the picture in such a way that it would come on the side of the blog text and the text would seem like it is coming from it.
When i uploaded the picture it didn't turn out the way i expected it to be.

My blog at the moment , looks like this:

A close up view of the blog on 7th January 2011

Other possible pictures i had considered as a background were;

After i was done with  the background, i used Abobe Photoshop Cs2 to make a heading for my blog. I decided to use the Photoshop to put in the text in it , instead of typing the  text through the blog.

Background for the Heading

I came up the the Background above by experimenting with the shade of Blue and pink as the background of my blog background picture was blue so i decided to use the same blue mixing with the shade of pink to give a soft look.

Then i added text inserting a new layer , i changed the glow and shadow and texture of the font and it gave a satisfactory look.

Applying affects to the text

The header with the text.

When i resized it according to the blog requirement, it looked a bit different then my expectations.
