Well, i don't know what to write about the meeting. I think someday some film material should show up at the others' blogs. Maybe i'll link some video when there are some nice ones.
In fact.........i decided not to appear on the video in the last minute XD. *simply went out of the house and lay down on the bench* Gomen nasai........i'm sort of unsociable in the end. *hides*
Won't analyze my psyche now....actually everyone was nice and friendly. I was completely overwhelmed (by so much new people).
By the way, Aiba-chan has found a new home. Sery got him home XD. Take care of him..........oh and i'm stupid, i forgot to take photos of the uchiwa before they went to their owners. Hrrrm.
I could start my laptop for a second to copy the files into my brother's computer XD. This first one sketch i made last night after working on uchiwas....yeah, after i won against art block on matsujun uchiwa. with this sketch i had artblock again when i drew with hard pencil, but at least i could win the fight by using soft pencil >_>; *fighting the will to go to bed* referenced, again. maybe gonna add color, later.
hai.......so this is day 10 and 9 (->previous post), day 8 is missing. and day 11, today. urrrrm, i'll catch up. i will. because i want to try out new tshirt pen anyway, and got some stuff to print on tote bag.....mhhh curious if it'll work. also i got myself some different kinds of clay, wanted to try that out too. hopefully i won't fail on it as in my first time =_=; but i want to get into 3d visual art a bit because i want to try out sculpture someday too.
jya, what i was doing the past 2 days without break was making uchiwas for german fanmeeting ne. idk if they still look like pingpong bats, but i changed the holders into wood sticks (you can see it in the last evening image)....fixed with very hard glue. and i work a lot with textile on them, i think it looks quite neat. maybe not refreshing in summer, but it definitely looks like quite nice handmade (satisfied). though i cannot really sew, have to get into it again after 5 years of neglecting. sew with my hand though, because our sewing machine bugs. it's more relaxing this way.
you can see the jun uchiwa i overworked in the middle of other uchiwa on the last picture.....right next to the other jun uchiwa. so it doesn't exist anymore *g*........yeah, i sit at the garden table all day long until it gets dark and/or cold, listening to kiiroi namida ost...ahh. sewing is sort of fun :D
Nino was hard to paint. For some reason. Hai, this is uchiwa i made for niji~ and it's referenced, but it doesn't really look like the reference image xd. i'm quite satisfied though.....with the painting, not with the uchiwa quality haha. My first uchiwa @_@.....made for niji.
I already started some others.....i use hard cardboard paper (the one i used for building portfolios earlier this year~).....cutting out the forms is quite hard since i have to cut a circle form;;;; then i stick some cloth onto the cardboard....um, and in this case i add canvas on top lol. The others won't all look the same i think.
My very first one was a failure btw....because the holder was way too thin. Made them wider now, so the uchiwa kind of look like a pingpong bat lol.
Oi, you see i already messed up Nino's face in the sketch.....xD. And this is my workplace.....no wonder my back hurts. I work on the floor all the time.
I hope the majority of the internet-user-species arashian has already heard about this project. If not, please follow me first to the arashi-world-2009-project-page (2009.arashi-world.com). Don't worry about the lack of updates, we plan and work on it even if it looks different XD.
So next year Arashi will celebrate their 10th anniversary.
The question is: How can you participate?
I often read that you're not allowed to film yourselves, or maybe you have lack of creativity, or you think you must participate as a group. I'll try to collect some ideas for you here, you may use your own ideas too, but i hope you can do a little something so Arashi will get to know about your existence (we'll try to get through ne).
->You don't need to film your face.
You may even change your voice digitally as if you were an anonymous person. That's totally ok. What you show on your video doesn't have to even show yourself. I suggest: Take some hand puppet and let the puppet talk for you. (lol) Film your back and just tell something. Write a letter/email and send it to somebody who would read it out for you. Film your Arashi-related backstage stuff and just be the narrator/cameraman. You may leave out any sound (we have karaoke for that XD). Film a street situation in your place. It's irrelevant if you're a single person or a group.
->You don't have to film anything.
You are even supposed to take photos. If you don't have photos of yourself with a landmark, just take some shots at home, on the street, anywhere. It would be cool if you could include something arashi-related, eg yourself eating sth at a restaurant and watching your arashigoto (doesn't have to show your face, again). Take a million photos if you join a fanmeeting. If you celebrate your ichiban's birthday. Take photos of things that remind you of arashi, for example your nintendo DS. Take photo of your computer.....aren't we an internet community afterall. It will be funny if you dare to write something onto the photos, or draw onto them. Or if you were in Japan, send in some nice ones. Also i think food-photos will look nice, different culture style. Arashi cosplayers are welcome hahaha.
Actually we just wanted to include a diashow at the end of the final video with a lot of group/single photos near a landmark or anything typical for your country (send them to Julie julie@arashi-world.com), but all the other stuff is also brilliant and i'd be really happy if you'd be creative with this :). Because we also want to make a small 2009-photobook. Please send all your photos to AnitafromH (oanita14@citromail.hu) for the photobook (also the ones you already sent to Julie XD).
->You don't have to (just) talk.
Do you have fanart? Do you sing and/or dance? Play instrument? Anything performable? Do it! Film yourself or take photos (or scan your fanart.....if you draw digitally/oekaki, the process would be cool to include :o...). If you have karaoke tracks (or sing-alongs, whatever), send them in! It's better if we have more material than we need because then we can select a bit you know. Join the karaoke-team....errrr, you can send in your stuff seperately, but if you like you may contact me about karaoke. :3
->You don't have a camera?
Simply record your voice. Or borrow a camera lol. Or as i already mentioned write a letter/email and let someone else read out your message. I think we can even simply show it on screen. Handwritten would be cool hahahaha.....yeah, that's it, we definitely have to include some handwritten letters. Doesn't have to be a novel though.
The most important thing is: NOTHING IS EMBARASSING ENOUGH XDDDD.
TAKE PART!!!!!!!!! 8D; please spread.
Ok, i'll update this post when brain-storm comes XD.
What the heck is she doing??? Anna is made for visual arts and not for music =_=.
Yay. I recorded both versions of Michi yersterday morning xd. I hope i don't creep you out (don't fear to listen though xDD). Karaoke-time. It's for 2009 Arashi project by the way, so i hope you don't mind me participating.
Omg i will post some inspiration for you how to participate in the project, because there is much else you can do other than filming yourself. You don't even have to exactly sit in front of the camera. Gyaah.

Hmmm it gets cold outside too quickly, otherwise i'd painted a little longer -.....- ~5 hours today. It's real fun <3333 the coat-o is difficult though. Have to fix a lot of details tomorrow na ^__^.
Somehow i'm so occupied with posting in the new german arashi forum that i don't even update.
Today i got an email from the artschool in Bremen and they indeed invite me to the entrance exams. Yooooooo. :> Berlin artschool is just in the beginning of going through the portfolios though. I hope they got some results soon -.....-
Because i want to know when there are entrance exams in Berlin......if they say it's the beginning of July, i really have bad luck. Why. On the 04.-06.July 2008 there will be a german(-speaking) Arashi meeting in Speyer °__°.
The first ever. We also participate in the Arashi International Fanvideo Project. It's not usual 'fanvideos'....it's about fans filming theirselves with a message to Arashi for their 10th anniversary next year. Please participate with the people in your country, or even as a single person, wherever you are. Please read the info in the link i just gave you. If you have questions, feel free to ask Julie (2009 project) or Nanao (german meeting) or me (both).
Alter, Leute, wenn es hier irgendwelche deutschen Arashi supporter gibt, die das hier lesen. BEWEGT EUREN HINTERN NACH SPEYER XDDDDDD;;;;;; Oder erst einmal in das deutsche Arashi Forum, da wird wirklich sehr sehr sehr viel geplant gerade darüber. Um den Fanmeeting-Thread zu lesen, meldet euch bei der jungen deutschen DoitsunoArashi FANSITE an. Ihr erhaltet auch einen Newsletter mit den Updates über das Treffen, aber ihr wollt vielleicht auch ein Wörtchen im Forum mitreden. Und auch wenn ihr euch mit niemandem treffen wollt oder könnt, wäre es super, wenn ihr trotzdem beim Arashi International Fanvideo Project mitmacht. :D DnoArashi ist übrigens kein deutscher fc, sondern ein deutsch-SPRACHIGER ^_~. Wer sich berufen fühlt, her mit den Anmeldedaten.
I just.....tried to motivate the german people who stumble over this post to participate in the meeting and in the fanvideo project ne;;;;;;
Another topic is taking photos of Arashi supporters from all over the world. AnitafromH suggested to do this here. The Fanvideo Project actually planned to include photos of the fans at some interesting places or whatever as a dia-show at the end of the final big video. But i think we can also collect these photos, think about a nice design, put some comments here and there, and PRINT THE PHOTOS AS A BOOKLET. lulu.com is a good place for that. If you're interested, you could even get a photobooklet copy for yourself.
If you'd like to send your photos both to 2009.arashi-world.com (fanvideo) and Anita (photobooklet) pleeeeease ^_______^. You have got time until the end of year i suppose.
*big sigh* now i have even more things to do in my free time, i really hope i can achieve some stuff. I will build a lifesize AnoArashi Aiba-chan by the way xDD. And tinker some handmade uchiwas, but for this time only for the german fc members, because it would be too much work otherwise. I'll post them here though :3
Well. That was actually an important update post. I really hope you participate, minna!!!!!! PLEASE PROMOTE THE FANVIDEO PROJECT IN YOUR BLOGS MINNA ^____^, and maybe even mention the german forum&fc.....maybe there are more german-speaking Arashians than we thought @__@. Anyways.
Keep talking about it, i hope we can collect some video material at last =))))
ps. i didn't know there were Arashians next door.......found out that there is Carina who lives just 15mins with the car away from my place. We met up yesterday. Really .....kind of weird lol. Really cool. We spent some time sitting on a public garage rooftop. Next time we'll tidy up that rooftop and get sunburnt there roflmaolol.
This boy just collects some billions of sympathy points here xDDDD by now i like almost every song on this cd :> (not in the mood for the slow ones)............listened to Once Again too, and, oh boy, i want the regular edition too D:
By the way, some hours ago my laptop suddenly collapsed. It may happen every second again and i believe it is damaged. I still have internet etc (my brother has a pc too kekeke), demo......i'm worried :x
Yo i got my copy today and spent the day getting used to the songs while studying~ didn't listen to the majority of them before~ i don't know if i should make a ranking haha, but i can say i like Sakurai's Hip Pop Boogie the very very best xDD
Just.....i listened with headphones. And when this song started, when Sakurap started ne *laugh*, i just had to laugh all the time, i don't know why it makes me so happy, this song xDDDD I had to laugh at Jun's Nekkid too, but...... lol Sakurai-kun, otsukareeeeeh xDD here you have a million sympathy points~
<-- I've made an illustration lols, well i started....UU will outline+color it soon <3.
Up to now i also love Ninomiya's Gimmick Game (esp. the chorus <33), Riida's Take Me Faraway, Aiba-chan's Hello Goodbye (2nd fave i think), Flashback too *__*, Life Goes On !!! (so sweet ;o;!).......oh and i got very much used to Step and Go, to the point i love it :)
The cover and booklet doesn't look that nice...but....let's not talk about it lol. I suggest next time they don't make them look so stiff but.....give them laughing gas and make funny photos and let Oh-chan make some illustration instead xDD i mean.......next to Happiness lyrics there's a Jun who doen't look happy at all x_x well and i hate grey color, but nevermind ^_^; i already know why i buy their cd xD
Oh and i re-designed my notepad yesterday........
