Last night was indeed a night filled with alot to take in. Our tutor Colene, is indeed a very organised and structured lecturer. 

We looked at website templates, font templates, aswell as Adobe CS3 or 4( not to sure) Dreamweaver which is the programme suggested to be used for working on our website templates......

Tutor for fanzite

Today the school finally organised to have those students doing - blog, websites, and anything web based to meet out tutor. Amazingly we realised we only have 5 weeks lefts to get the basic down for this artifact.  We were directed to W3Schools.com to gain a little insight on the basics. We meet her again on the recently scheduled classes, on Wednesday. 

Also tonight I received the pictures on a cd from my visit to Bro Valentino's place last two weeks.

Tonight I am going to certainly say a small pray especially for this artifact.

The People's Calypsonian Snapped

Finally it transpired. The need for photos to add some sense of connectivity for the visitor to this website I got pictures taken of the calypsonian. 

There was a bit of a delay to get the morning started as getting there was a few hours well. My classmate and I got a lift to Sande Grande from another dear friend of mine named Marcus. On our arrival we quickly did our greetings.The smile on his face said he was really pleased with meeting us for this purpose(giving him and the armform a voice).

I dont have a total figure as yet but tons of pictures were taken today. Even an unrecorded informal chit chat took place, with questions and observations coming from both myself and Trixie. 

My day was  indeed productive and informative. Cant wait to begin this artifact for real.


Night night

Dadaism

We viewed a film on Wednesday on Dadaism. Very interesting piece. As I mentioned to the lecturer, dadaism reminds me alot of Situationist and their beliefs and practices. If carefully thought about I may implement it in some way on my artifact. 

Still awaiting the dates of our tutorial for the fansite...eagerly awaiting, as I notice time is certainly creeping up on me. 

Well today I called Bro Valentino again and he agreed to allow me into his home next week Saturday(God Willing), to conduct the chit chat...and take some photos. He is always so willing to speak to you.  

I also booked a date with the artist to guide me though the drawings needed for this artifact....I am feeling it coming off well. 

So until...good night

Saturday's plans squashed!! Who says Plan B

Again another day in which I really intended to head to the artistes home to get some pictures.  But it can't happen today, got called out to work. 

However I am not dismayed...there is always a plan B. So today I will organise a meeting with the person to guided me through the sketching process for the art I would like to be revealed on this fansite for Bro Valentino. I am so excited about this project. I am start tomorrow writing out the songs for the artiste..maybe the more familiar one....what a task!!

With that said onto that now onto the next project...

This process to complete or even begin this artifact -Scary

Good night

Why was the fear factor mentioned as part of subject of this blog? Because it does exsist. At present my biggest worry is actually getting(who has not been introduced to us at yet) the tutor the school has promised us will come to teach those interested in creating a web page/fansite(as in my case). With the inclusion of other intense assignments and committments it is a bit worrying to be a this stage within this semester. 

Anyway I am currently still working on the songs for the artiste and have yet to meet with him to conduct a small photo session. I pray it all happens soon....

On to the next assignment for tonight...
