Final project for Adam… been working on it for a while, it’s due in a week, but I wanted to make a little splash with it here. It’s a game site, advertising a fictitious Maltese Falcon game. It’s supposed to be an experiential site, where you can move around the office of investigator Sam Spade.

The only problem being that at this point I’m running out of time. I’m cutting back like crazy – cutting out parts of the office to explore, cutting interactions, cutting takeaways… so it’s starting to look a bit trim. And I’m still kinda concerned about getting it done.

Anyway, just throwing this out there. Check back in a week or so to see the real thing!

Have to shoot some photos for QTVR, and I’m choosing to focus on lighting, time, and depth, things that are sometimes neglected in my photography.

So I went out last night and bought a tripod for my camera. It had been raining, so everything was wet and reflecting light, so I set up my camera on the tripod there in the parking lot, and started playing around, taking photos of cruising around in a shopping cart among other things.

On my way back, passed a closed gas station, and thought, Hey, I could probably take something interesting here. So I left my headlights on, pointed towards the gas pump, and was setting up a shot when a police car pulled up to see what on earth I was doing there at midnight. Everything was fine, but the policemen preferred that I move along, as it was late and there had been problems in the area lately. So a bit bummed about not getting that shot.
