Exams are coming to an end. Still unsure of your plans for the short vacation? Looking for something interesting to do? Well...
Look no further!
Attend the Adobe design and video workshops to become a designer of aesthetic visuals or a video director of your own film! The NUS RidgeCats, together with NUS Computer Centre and Adobe Systems Incorporated, bring you "Virtually Possible", a vacation media training bootcamp to help unleash that creativity in you!
There will be 3 courses, 2 sessions each, teaching how to use software to capture videos and edit videos and images!
How is this different from the rest of the workshops you say? Well, did I mention that there is a video making contest and a digital imagery contest coming up? Take this opportunity to pick up these useful skills and join the contests! Prizes include the Adobe Creative Suite 4 Master Collection for the top 3 submissions of EACH contest!
That is over SG$20,000 worth of prizes to be won!
Here is a little video we made that has recently been nominated in an international competition, Machin Expo 2009, as one of the Top 4 films in the Asian Jury category. We are proud that in the short 1 year, the first production from NUS RidgeCat has achieved critical acclaim in the nomination!
A race track in NUS! Well, we happen to gather at the track one day, and each of us brought out our vehicles to race. But in the end, it wasn't really the normal kind of racing with cars.
Well, it started with Mercedes and Mclaren.
A school bus soon joined in. =\
Elephant and horse. >.<
Dustbin and Trolley. =X
Airship!
Well this seems to mark the end of the race as the tank takes up the challenge.

PS: All the best for your exams!

Ta de da de da~ I woke up one morning in this place to be playing a piano in a daze~
In here, was everything but life, so I decided to take a dive~
Sitting here with my dear, my only wish is to have my beer~
Without my beer, I'm filled with rage but powerless was I, she was my cage.
The End~

Tuesday, November 3, 2009 @ Second Life is not just about NUS!
For those who always have the impression that Second Life is just about being in NUS, I hope to change that point of view.
Second Life has too many places for you to visit them all in a day. Its like a world on its own. There are various sims for various purposes. You can suit up and engage in combats, be a vampire and roam the area looking for victims, buying cars and ride around town, helicopters, ships and even futuristic space craft to engage in star wars - like battles. But lets start slowly. =)
Recently, we chance upon this very beautiful place, Paris in Second Life. The scene is breath-taking. The land is filled with structures from Real Life Paris. Some of the more famous ones are Arc De Triumphe, Notre Dame Cathedral and of course, the Effiel Tower.
Here's some pictures taken.

Second Life is a much bigger place that you can ever imagined.
Have the right attitude and you will find Second Life a much better place.

Monday, November 2, 2009 @ Catching Butterflies and..
There are always many interesting activities to do in Second Life.
Recently, we wandered to a land where plants flourish and food grows in abundance.
Most importantly, we can catch butterflies!
Wear the free net thats available at the shop and you can catch butterflies anywhere on that parcel.
You can click on the net once you see the light appears or the msg: Cutie Honey Net: Click me for bug hunting!!!
You can catch a range of insects, butterflies, fire bugs, ladybirds, larvae and dragonflies.
And of course, we just cant resist taking group pictures.
Enjoy!
Nice scenery!
Cant see clearly in this picture, but we are actually moon-walking
