Last weekend was the Hard Haunted Mansion Festival at The Shrine in Downtown LA. This event featured some of the biggest names in the game over a 2 day period. Staticka Photography shot the first night of the party, where DJ A-Trak featured one of the photos on his site.

Valida is a very particular woman who knows what she wants and just how to get it. This job was a lesson in giving the client just that. It was originally supposed to be a revamp of her old site, built as template pages she could update on her own without having to learn too much more than what she already knew with Dreamweaver. So instead of going the 2009 Web 2.0 route, I resorted to using tables (yes, tables), putting content inside of a billboard (a task in its own) and going back to basics. At the end of it all, she was very pleased with the outcome and I’ll now be her web guy for updates. Maybe one day I’ll give it an updated scheme and coding, but until then, it’s all about what she wants.

There’s been a cool Facebook meme going around that has just about everyone giving it a shot. The rules are as follows…

1. – Click http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Random
The first random Wikipedia article you get is the name of your band.

2. – Click http://www.quotationspage.com/random.php3
The last four or five words of the very last quote on the page is the title of your first album.

3. – Click http://www.flickr.com/explore/interesting/7days
Third picture, no matter what it is, will be your album cover.

4. – Use Photoshop or similar to put it all together.

5. – Post it to FB with this text in the “caption” and tag the friends you want to join in. (You can untag yourself if you don’t want this photo up)

My first attempt presented a photo I felt uninspiring so I only gave it a couple minutes worth of time. I was then tagged by a couple friends so I decided to give it more of an effort when the gods threw me a bone- a photo of a girl in socks. It’s like someone over at Flickr had my number.

I’m sure I’ll be tagged again soon so if I feel up for it, maybe we’ll see another one coming. Come join in!
