REVIEW + Bad Memories

     not the best, but make the blast..

Hape gw nih, di beliin sama bokap pas bgt ultah gw yg ke-17
senangnyaa.. ^^
Tadinya hp gw Nokia 3310.. Eh, tau-tau di kamar udah ada kotak biru-putih-ajaib-gimana-gitu (doraemon kalee....),,, begitu gw liat,,

Sony Ericsson K550i

waw, AMAZING, Sugoi, ohh ffakk..!!
Langsung gw otak-atik lah tu si item, keren abis boo!!
Dengan kameranya yg 2.0 Megapixels CYBER-SHOT, gw langsung belaga moto-moto kaya yg di iklannya itu loh.. ahahah
Beberapa hari kemudian, gw mulai masuk-masukin apa aja ke tuh hape, mulai dari musik, games, foto-foto, aplikasi, sampe ke.... bokepp...!!
nah, beberapa hari kemudian lagi, di mana hape gw lagi lucu-lucunya, terjadi insiden yang sangat-sangat-di luar-skenario-sutradara-terkenal-sekelas-spielberg-sekalipun.

1 Agustus 2007...

Gw telat masuk sekolah, setelah sedikit nego sama pak satpam, akhirnya boleh masuk juga.
Gw lari-lari sekencangnya sepanjang koridor samping lapangan dengan si item di saku kanan celana.
Setelah setengah koridor gw berlari, nampaknya si item gw ini udah ga sabar pengen masuk kelas duluan.
Jadi dia loncat dari saku celana gw dan mau lari duluan. Tapi karena dia ga punya kaki, jadi mau jalan ala suster ngesot gitu.
Trakk, dia loncat dan bergulung-gulung (gw ga tau istilahnya bener ato nggak) di lantai sejauh 2 meter ke depan.
Dengan wajah pucat pasi karena gw udah telat + hape gw jatoh pula, langsung gw pungut dan gw masukin lagi ke saku.
Begitu di kelas, (untung gurunya belum masuk) gw cek tu si item. Dia dalam keadaan mati gitu, gw nyalain.

Temen (T) : "Kenapa hape lo?"
Gw (G) : "Tadi jatoh, gw buru-buru." (gw pencet tombol ON)
T : "Makanya, jangan taro di kantong."
G: "iya iya, bawel"
Si Item (I) : (udah mulai masuk, yak harusnya udah logo sony ericsson nih)
G: "Lho? Kok logonya cuma setengah ya??"
T: "Sini gw liat."
I: (udah masuk ke wallpaper, harusnya muncul foto gw yg lagi ganteng)
G: "Kok cuma bawahnya doang yg keliatan?!" (panik)
T: "Waah, LCD lo kayanya pecah deh." (tampang ga berdosa)
G: " ... "
T: "Woooy, hapenya si Ajie layarnya pecaahh!!!" (teriak biar sekelas pada tau)
Anak-anak dalam sekejap pada ngumpul di meja gw buat negliat hape gw yg baru (rusak).

beginilah nasibnya si item..

Huff, geblek.
Gara-gara tu bokep sialan!!
Akhirnya setahun tiga bulan kemudian hape gw baru bener..
Hikss..

Review hape gw setelah gw pake berbulan-bulan baik dalam keadaan layar setengah-ke bawah maupun bener :
Ni hape bener-bener keren, walaupun resolusi kameranya cuma 2.0 Mp, tapi kualitas gambarnya bagus banget di outdoor, sayangnya kalo indoor kurang bagus..
videonya oke, walopun cuma 3gp.
Musiknya cool, kualitas hampir setara sama yg seri walkman.
Internetnya lumayan cepet.
Pokoke, hape gw the best lah!! ^^

My 1st papercraft

kemaren-kemaren pas gw lagi service motor, kan bt tuh.. jadi gw liat-liat majalah yg ada di tu bengkel.. ada majalah Mtr Plus gitu, gw liat-liat lah.

pas gw buka halaman terakhir, ada kolom kreatifitas gitu (kolom yang paling gw suka, soalnya menampilkan karya design pembaca). kebetulan disitu lagi ada kiriman pembaca berupa karya papercraft model motor.
kelar service motor, gw dengan semangat 45 langsung googling papercraft.
ternyata keren-keren abis boo.. n susah-susah!!
tapi ada yg menarik perhatian gw yaitu model papercraft Gundam SD Strike

gw download pattern, template & assembly instruction-nya..
gw liat, ternyata susah juga yah.. eheheheh..

beberapa hari kemudian, gw bali buku gambar A4 demi kertasnya yang 120gr, trus gw printlah..
lembar pertama, kepalanya!!
gw guntingin dengan teliti, gw lemin dengan penuh rasa kasih sayang..
akhirnya jadi juga tu kepala dalam waktu 3 jam!! gw nggak tau itu termasuk cepet ato sangat lama.. hehehe
trus berhubung saat itu waktu menunjukkan pukul 20an, gw bingung juga mau foto-fotoin tu kpala gundam.
akhirnya gw akal-akalin aja pake senter LED yg gw beli di bis dengan harga 10 ribu..
lumayan sih hasilnya.. ^^

Hello;Fest 5 - 22 Nov 08

Photobucket

Suatu hari di November 2008 (qo jadi kaya dongeng??), gw lagi iseng liat2 blog hello;motion, trus disitu ada "HELLO;FEST vol. 5" jadi gw klik lah tu link, ternyata acaranya bentar lagi.. gw pengen banget ikutan tu acara, tapi bingung mau jadi apanya.. (yg pasti ga jadi satpamnya!)
akhirnya pas gw nongkrong di rumah temen gw, gw ajakin tu temen2 gw ikutan acara tsb. langsung pada semangat 45 gitu, tapi pada bingung mau jadi apaan. pas lagi debat, gw keinget sama sebuah kotak yg gw dulu2 pernah bikin. yaitu kotak SMILE nya L`arc~en~ciel (for Info: L`arc~en~ciel itu band asal Jepang yg udah mendunia, udah 16 tahun, lagi lucu2nya, dan gw suka bgt sama band tsb).
akhirnya pada setuju sama ide gw.. (secara gw gitu.. hahaha) jadi rencananya SMILE tsb akan dibuat 6 versi sesuai dengan jumlah anggota tim gw (8VOLUTION).

persiapannya harus mateng, gosong kalo perlu!!

Photobucket

Bahan kotak SMILE:
- kardus bekas Aqua (boleh diganti apa aja, yg penting ada, n harus yg masih bagus)
(di potong sesuai ukuran kepala)
- Karton Kuning 3 lembar (bisa di custom, pake pylox/cat juga bisa)
- kertas mika (buat di taro di mata)
- Lem (gw nyaranin lem fox ato lem uhu)
Bahan2nya gampang khan?
bisa anda dapatkan hanya di toko buku terdekat!! tidak termasuk beterai!!
kalo kerdus bekas, cari aja di warung depan.. pasti ada..
Total biaya +/- Rp 10.000,- /orang


Akhirnya hari H!!


gw berangkat pake mobil dinas alias mobil Corolla '73 "HELL Car" punya si Ryan dengan 6 orang di dalamnya yang penuh dengan semangat membara dan dada jedag-jedug ajep-ajep dustak-dustak..
Photobucket

sampai di balai kartini jam 2an, qo masih sepi yah??
ternyata udah agak rame di dalem habis daftar ulang & siap2.. kita juga daftar ulang n ngambil nomer urut (qo kaya caleg ya?)
tim gw dapet nomer 50-55 (gw no 50), udah itu istirahat dulu, duduk-duduk kaya preman sambil ngeliatin cosplayer2 lain n cewek-cewek dengan bahan baju yg minim, sambil nunggu temen2 gw dateng (tim hore! : Ryo, Bayu, Atek, Gemblank, Tania, Salsha) dan official cameraman kita Imron.

akhirnya pada dateng juga tu, dan acara pun dimulai!!
kloter pertama, keren-keren, gokil-gokil, detail gila n niat abissss!!!
Photobucket
gw dkk langsung rada ciut pas ngeliat "geni edan" beraksi, dia nyemburin api gitu.. keren abisss..
ada juga yg lucu, eito ranger (bener ga namanya?) beraksi! melawan kejahatan dengan keimutan! cewe2 pake baju ala power ranger gitu..
setelah beberapa penampilan peserta, akhirnya tibalah saatnya tim 8VOLUTION manggung..

gila, deg-degan banget dah sumpah..!!
naik ke panggung, penonton, panitia, peserta, photographer, penjaga kemanan, parkir official (tukang parkir maksudnya) semua ngeliatin kita.. (yaiyalah, lo lagi di panggung)
ekspektasinya dasyat.. gw sampe mati gaya, sumpah!! si yogi, yg ber-SMILE ala orang mabok, melakukan aksi kejar2an di atas panggung sampe-sampe si cengbi (kiki) jatuh terpelanting dan kotaknya terbuka! penonton langsung "waaaahaaaa, ketauann..!!!"
gila! bener-bener diluar skenario!! (padahal emang ga ada skenarionya)
akhirnya,setelah melakukan berbagai aksi-aksi yg membuat penonton terpaku, terdiam, terkantuk, terkejut, terpana, terkutuk, dll kita turun panggung. sempet gila-gilaan di backstage dan kembali lagi ke alamnya.. (tempat duduk)

setelah beberapa penampilan cosplay lainnya, tibalah giliran festival film pendek. (jadi lomba film pendek indie gitu)
beberapa film dimulai, ada pengumuman para pemenang cosplay..
dan sangat mengejutkan gw!
Sogi Indra Dhuaja sbg MC "pemenang cosplay original adalah, nomer 51!!"
gokil!! temen gw si Yogi tuh yg jadi SMILE Mabok, menang!! ga nyangka banget, ini kan penampilan perdana kita, mana modal seadanya uang di dompet (10 rebu), bikin SMILE acak2an, dan emang ga ngarepin menang (yang penting tampil n dipoto-poto,, hehe),,
ga taunya, menang!!
si yogi!! hoki bgt dah dia..

setelah di selamatkan (di beri selamat maksudnya) oleh orang-orang yg duduk di dekatnya (gw ngasih selamat dengan cara nampol-nampolin dia, hahaha) dia majulah ke panggung.. dan mendapatkan iPod nano!! (sial!), vocer hello;motion 1juta, dll

ga lama setelah itu, dengan rasa senang gembira bercampur keringet, kita pulang deh..
hari yang sangat menyenangkan.. ^^

Photobucket

Foto akan di upload lagi selanjutnya.. ^^

Sony Ericsson Mobile Photograph Guide



1 - Always catch a smile

Your pictures will be a collection of carefully planned moments as well as spontaneous and unexpected ones. And your best shot might actually appear when you’re least expecting it. Just like a smile. It´s the smile on your motif that turns your best shot into a perfect one.
But however you do it – always remember to have fun photographing. Learn the first and most important lesson of all: Enjoy the moment you are about to create and capture it.

2 - Change your perspective
Here’s the real secret of taking a great photograph. Stop looking and start seeing. Looking is what we do all the time. We look — glance at a dog, a flower or a baby, a wedding — and take a pretty picture. Seeing is entirely different. It involves doing what great photographers do: taking the time to perceive the world and its components, and then taking time to turn these perceptions into works of photographic art.
Looking has one direction. Seeing perceives a 360 degree view. To really see an object, we have to look at it from all angles. And, since we don’t have eyes on our backs or hands, that may require us to lay on the ground, climb a tree or simply look straight up before taking the picture.



3 - Play with light
Just as white is a complement of black, light is a complement of shadow. Try photographing the object’s shadows rather than the object itself.
They’re always a sure thing for a great image. And they’re all around you!
Is it dark outside? No reason not to take your camera along. Here is our proof: It shows you what the powerful Xenon flash is capable of: turning the dark into a source of high-visibility images.
Make the sun the star of your photo.

4 - Use reflecting surface
Great photographs tell stories. Dare to tell the story behind your motif. Just take a look in the mirror
and let the reflection create the suspense for your picture story.
Start looking for the shots your surroundings are giving you at this very moment: the reflections of a
glass facade, the soft drink bottle on the table, your girlfriend’s sunglasses, a glass building or even water.

5 - Focus on details
Wait a second! Don’t click yet. Take another step closer. And another. And yet another. Now stop and focus.
The wonders are revealed in close-ups. They add up to a beautiful picture. You have to see the beauty contained in the details in order to get the big picture.

6 - Capture the motion
There are only two ways to photograph motion, either you move the camera, or the object you’re shooting is in motion.
It’s as simple as that. And when you’re capturing motion in pixels, remember what you learnt about
shooting from unusual perspectives.
Don’t let a great shot pass you by. Try to create a greater blur effect for your photo. Do both by
releasing the shutter while focusing on a fast-moving object.

7 - Control the sharpness

Direct the viewer’s eye to the part of a picture that’s important for you. Separate the foreground from the background, and, while doing so, combine the in-focus and blurred components into a great picture.
Great photographs say something about life. Learn to tell the important from the unimportant. Learn to use auto focus properly to create more depth in your pictures.

8 - Stage the colours

Every colour is unique. And every masterpiece is a perfect arrangement of colours. It´s time for you to show your colours. Search for the most impressive blue or the most mystic green. Or just get started with capturing your favourite colour.
Just having a palette with all sorts of different colours doesn’t make you an artist yet. Try to
concentrate on two or three colour combinations to create a masterpiece of hues and harmony.

9 - Oppose the extremes

Opposites attract — attention!
Make use of this principle in creating pictures which attract attention.
To make sure that the opposites do the job, place them right next to each other. Team up big and small, colourful and grey, old and new, soft and hard, light and dark in their most extreme forms.

10 - Provoke a situation
What makes a photograph great, is the feelings it evokes. These feelings include everything from a laugh to a sense of awe at nature’s wonders. So before releasing the shutter, ask yourself what emotion you want your image to convey.
Remember: you’re the director of this photograph — but you’re also in charge of the setting. Consider the space around you and instruct your actors in order to create a picture-perfect situation.
