CREATING WEBSITES

http://www.photoshopcafe.com/tutorials/super%20tutorial%202/website.htm
This is a really good tutorial for creating a website by importing it from imageready to dreamweaver. btw, it shows a much easier way for creating rollovers than the one we learned...go figure!

Photography Class

Last class we learnt A LOT. We had a food stylist speak to us.

How a food stylist would make something like :
1. ice cream –
1 lb of confectionary sugar 1 stick of margarine
Some karo syrup
Can put chocolate syrup for chocolate, strawberries and food coloring or chocolate chips





2. cereal – use only whole pieces
Spoon Crisco into bowl for milk on bottom, make it as flat as possible
then stick whole cornflakes into it the Crisco
then put drops of Elmer’s glue on top to make splashy milk

3. frozen box take a box
Use Desenex (foot powder) and spray the box
Then spray dry ice on it
Then put fake snow on it (can make it wet so it’s slushy)
Also can useWater with some dried ice , wait a few minutes and it makes crushed ice



4. cold bottle 1/3 glycerin and 1/3 water to make a spray and spray with some type of sprayer the glass with it
Or can use light corn syrup on glass
Put fake ice cubes and fill with soda




For homework make a fake food and take a picture of it

( the type for him to say no)

Internship

Ok, so here is the situation; we're all supposed to be registering for this internship next semester, but NO ONE IS EXPLAINING TO US WHAT IT IS! Hello??? So Professor Fink said that you have to be working with a professional graphic designer...does that mean I have to quit my job? HELP! Is anyone else feeling a little overwhelmed?

Spring 2007 classes

Does anyone know what's happening with Intro to Modern Art (or whatever its called) next semester? Does it even seem likely that there will be a class?
Please post before tuesday! Thanx

Photography Class – 12/7/06


Archival Framing– use materials that are all acid free and 100& rag (paper made from cotton rather than a tree)
-Put a mat around the frame to keep glass from touching photo.
-don’t place it where the sun will hit it.

- nice to use cream / white mat around photo, and create a hinge mat: tape photograph (around edges of pic, good to rather put photo corners) with acid free tape to mat, then fold over the front onto the pic.

- sign your photograph, used to only be able to use India Ink now can use pencil too (but not worth as much in an auction).

HW:
Create a series of photographs.
Should be amazing pics
Min: 6 pics
Due next class – typed form of what will do and how will develop it.

Examples:
paper bag
