Rainy Day Fun Craft Project { PIPEROID }

Publish Post
Saturday was a bit cold and raining in the morning. For some reason
I felt like being productive so decided to make a paper robot called PIPEROID.

All I needed to prepare was scissors, no glue required.

Just cut 6 pipes into pieces, assemble pipes by following the instruction on the back of the packaging.
I spent about 30-40 minutes cutting, folding, and assembling.

It was rather challenging but it was satisfying to look at the result.

Like A Rock Star ☆

It is interesting to say that when I got home, it felt like as if I just came back from my favorite rock band's live concert : )
A day passed and I can still recall most of the stories that were told by Sean Adams and his wonderful team. The reason is because they are simply very good story tellers. Their stories felt genuine, touching, and insightful. Oh boy, they really know how to communicate themselves both visually and verbally. Amazing people...!
I have been using Sean's Logo Design Workbook as my design process bible for a while. It's such a great book that I always go back to and remind myself of what are the essentials for good visual communication. Last night was so unreal. I felt so privilege to be at the studio and experienced the live version of the book : ) Thank you AIGA! Thank you AdamsMorioka! You are my rock star.

Black Bird Fly, What a fun Camera!


Today I finally opened a box of a new camera Black Bird Fly(BBF.)
It was the first time to test it since I got it last year.

This camera has two lenses, one to look through to make a composition, one to capture the image. Image looks reversed through the view finder so it took some time for me to get used to it. It's tricky, but it's really fun getting to know about this camera. I can't wait to develop the first roll : )

Also I love the color combination of this camera(Orange x Black).
It looked really good when it was placed on a brown wooden table
with some green plants in the background.
