Week one: Image Sequences

This week in class I learned about image sequences. What are image sequences? Image sequences are images that follow each other in a logical sequence. During the first session, My tutor gave examples of a few artists and the image sequences that they had made.


Jumping squirrel 


Woman Dancing (1887)

The image above is from an artist called Eadweard Muybridge. The images are some photographic images of a human and an animal in sequence. In these images, you can see you each picture is in a specific sequence that can show the movement of the squirrel jumping or a man walking. Image sequencing provides the flexibility and highest image quality to show a certain action or scene that is happening.




Last session, our class tutor split everyone into groups of two to three. He also asked us to create our own Google account and Google Drive specifically for our work. After that, my group went out to take multiple image sequences all around our campus. The images above are some of our sequence images. We took burst shots of a flock of birds flying in the sky. Then we went to a café that has a pool table and we took burst shots of us playing pool. When we were finished, we took the images back to our class and to our computers. We convert the images from .jpg to jpeg. Next, we took the images to a contact sheet generator and generated the images above. We made the mistake of taking portrait sequence images, it should be landscape.

The images above are the final product after a quick editing using Pixlr & Pixlr E. This was our first time making sequence images and it went pretty well. As a practice, we learn from our mistakes and we will create longer images. This will make the sequence images more fluent and people can see clearly the action or the scene.

Research on the National Flower Of United Arab Emirates

For this post, I will share my research about the national flower of The United Arab Emirates, the Tribulus Omannense. I will create a boutique hotel in Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai, for my project. I will symbolise the country with the nation's flower, Tribulus Omannense. Since a boutique hotel is targeted at travellers, the concept of my hotel is inspired by the flower. Tribulus Omanense is a small flowering plant in the Zygophyllaceae family. Its delicate, yellow flowers have five petals and a distinct, spiky appearance (Anne, A. 2023). The flower is suitable for creating a hotel because of its simplicity, and it is easy to divide the rooms for the hotel. Since it has five petals, I made each petal a section for the hotel, for example, a lobby section and the rest of the rooms for each petal. Each petal will be enough to fit two hotel rooms. Although the number of rooms in my boutique hotel will be small, this will ensure a more personalised service to the customers, and the h...

WEEK SIX: Contacts

  This is my contact page where you can reach out to me. I have listed the location of my workplace, which is the Art Factory. As I haven't decided whether to add my phone number or not, I have included a random number for now. You can contact me through my email address, and my website links such as Blogger and Instagram are also provided. This page which contains my contacts is a new page that I did and a button that leads to the page. The image above is a lightbox that I added at the very bottom of all of my pages.

Research on boutique hotel (Edited)

This post will be about my research on boutique hotels. The simplest definition of a boutique hotel is “a small, sophisticated, and fashionable business or establishment“. (Giulietta, 2024) Boutique hotels are mainly for people who travel for a short time and want a personalised experience during their stay. The boutique hotel interests me because of its size and the difference in experience compared to a typical hotel. The main reason behind this is that boutique hotels have better quality control, ensuring the guest experiences a comfortable stay. The attention to detail in these hotels' design makes them unique. Boutique hotels are usually made to be one-of-a-kind (WOOLF, 2023) and with that being stylish and trendy. Their designs are more towards elegance and luxury, but the prices are still reasonable. This is suitable for my project as the location for it is in Dubai. A developing country where there are a lot of travellers and tourists passing through. Also, Dubai is known f...
