Late May Update : VOCALO.ID 2!

Hello everyone :D

It's May already! And my community's collaboration album VOCALO.ID is nearly finisthed. I've finished my song and the cover artwork, so I'm pretty much free right now. I haven't got a job for now, so I thought I should be more productive, but damn you Internet for giving me useless things that wastes all my time and I ended up doing nothing.

So right now, I'm trying to back into my favorite DAW Ableton, trying to do some composition. It's strange how inspiration can only came to us when we are in the bathroom. (-_-)a  I spend the last month trying to understand the composition of Dubstep. It's an eye-opening experience, because till then I haven't utilized all those tools for mixing. I simply balance the volume level, but now I know that sto much more can be done to make my music sounds better.

Anyway, now I finally have things to do, and I also will try to draw something so my skills won't rot away XD See you next time!

Vocaloid Workshop by VOCAPOST Community

Last week, our Vocaloid community  VOCAPOST held a workshop about Vocaloid. Being one of the producers, I became one of the speaker to do the presentation. We're explaining all about Vocaloid, the history, the cultural impacts and of course, the software itself.

I'm quite nervous when speaking in front of peoples, but I think I got it well. With the help from others I can overcome my nervousness and the workshop is quite a success, even though there's a couple of minor problem when tutoring the process of making sequence in Vocaloid Editor.

And we are going to do this again in May! So I have to be more prepared, and brush up my presentation skill. See you next time! xD

Late March Update

Hi there, a bit late update from me this month.

Recently I've been trying to get a work, so I was kind of busy. But I managed to spare some times for practices. This month I was trying to design a CD Case for my music album.

 

So that's what it looks like. I'm trying to keep it simple, it's my principle in every design of mine. And as you can see, I'll be giving out posters as well. But the realization for this project might be still a long time from now, because I need to focus on my community's compilation album.

February Update

Well, hello there!

It's been a while since my last post, sorry for that. Lots of things to do on January. But now I got a little bit of free time, so I'll be updating this blog before it gets swarmed by moss xD

So... since I've been busy on January, this will be my first drawing on 2012. A little warm-up in Photoshop, nothing special. But after making this I realized, I should make more full-body drawing for anatomy practice. Oh well, next time I'll do just that LOL.

Megurine Luka Speedpainting

Another try in speed-painting. This time Luka makes appearance! 8D
This is a drawing for an Art Jam event in one of my Groups in DeviantArt. Every week we should draw a different Vocaloid characters. Week 1 : Megurine Luka.

Next Week is Utatane Piko. I'm planning to do another speedpainting like this so i can get used to Photoshop, because i think i use SAI too often ^^;

Scanner is dead

...so i may not post some major drawing project for now. Just when i have tons of sketches to draw digitally, this happens. Why, oh why OAO

So anyway, i'm working on our community's next project to celebrate our country's anniversary day on August 17th. We remix our national songs with our style. Because Indonesia has a lot of them, well... we got a lot of song to choose xD.

So far the song is already completed, so now I'm working on the artwork. Just a simple & bright artwork, because i want to set the mood of this song to be happy, cheerful & fun.

 

That's all for now, see ya at the next post!

UPDATE : Artwork is finished, counting to teaser release! xD

VOCALO.ID will be released on June 5th!

Woohoo, i'm so excited, this is my first time collaborating in a compilation album.

So far our promotion friends in Malang City had printed the merchandises. It looks awesome!

 

The album will be net-released on June 5th!

Busy with Forum's Project

Hello everyone!

It's the end of the month already! This month is probably the busiest month i had with so much drawings to do. Right now i am designing promotional items for my forum's original vocaloid album, called VOCALO.ID. So far it's been good, lots of try & error, and then fix it again. I guess this is how the visual designer works in real life.

And also some drawings for contest winners on DeviantArt. I hope my drawings is legit enough to be a prize & can satisfy them xD.

Well, back to the real world, i also have to struggle to finish my college assignments which is... also promotional items. Kinda stressed because i had to make an educational TV commercial for this one, and lots of items such as posters, billboard design, stickers etc.

Well i gotta hang in there, real world would probably be more complicated than what i have now.

See you!
