Không Mười Tám - Collecting Memories

Collecting Memories [018/365]

"Collecting Memories" suits this image well for that's what I've been mostly doing these past months. At times, this task tends to be more stressful than it needs to be, but others... it seems to fall into place on it's own.

Since I spent all of the day on the computer, didn't had the chance to take any pictures, so instead, I decided to post a render of one of the book's spreads.

Không Mười Sáu - Covert Affairs

Covert Affairs [016/365]

Had some issues with the internetz last night, wasn't fixed until just minutes ago.

"Covert Affairs" is a sneak peak on the cover pages of the book I'm working on. There's going to be a meeting today to refine the content layout and to approve of the cover. It took me almost all weekend just photo scanning, photo editing, photo retouching, cover creating, and content layout'ing. What's left to do is just enter the texts and collages, which I'm working on at the moment.

Let me know what you think about the cover and what is it that you are expecting on the contents to look like. Another sneak peak coming up at the end of the day. STAY TUNNED! =]

Không Mười Năm - Scanned Away

Scanned Away [015/365]

Rude awakening by the contractors that showed up unexpectedly to replace the fence dividing the condominiums... someone should've gave noticed us at least a week in advance... -_-

Despite the early morning, I dedicated half daylight time to scanning photos for this 'yearbook' I'm doing for a local church where I used to be exploited. =P So many pictures, so little space to put them on...

My earlier layout gave every moment in the church's 50 year history and its ministries at least a page to showcase milestones leading to such community. Due to the low response on portrait schedules and photos taken by the publishers, the committee didn't pile up enough credits to get just enough pages. Crude reality, the yearbook got only enough credits to accommodate about 20% of of the ideal volume. Now presented with the space challenge, and the scarce submissions, got scanning and rearranging my layout. I need to have a new layout ready for Monday's meeting and thus proceed packaging the book and send it to the publishers. Good luck Omar, don't forget to offer this stressful situation in prayer.
