DIY: T-Shirt Application Special Hug Campaign

 

This is my first time making tutorial with Photoshop! WOHOOO.. i never learn how to use Photoshop, so this is my personal achievement!!! *grins* 

You know why i like making tutorials and share it, because when you need to do something and you don't know how to do it, you google and you stumble on the tutorial you need, it feels like that person help you. Just like me tonight with Photoshop. So i want to pay if forward. Hope someone need this tutorial (who knows :p)

Due to very (very very very) basic knowledge of Photoshop, i choose the simple arrangement based on P.S.- I made this tutorial style. Enjoy!

PS. well actually i have another variation on the white tshirt, but i don't know how to make it shadowy, if not it blends with the background. D'oh! *facepalm* DONE! ;)

Hug Campaign Special Valentine!

 A hug is like a bandage to a hurting wound.  ~Unknown

Last year, our TEDxJakarta arranged surprise Free Hug Campaign, it was started as one simple "what-if" tweet a night before 14th Feb, and someone put hashtag #HugCampaign on it, and the rest was history, it grew bigger and bigger over night and on the D-day, local radio picked it up and interview the curator about the event.

What people might not at the time was : we haven't get any single contact or permission from the management of Pacific Place, the mall which we planned to have the campaign. hehehe.. i know, crazy rite?!

but none can resist the growing buzz, not even the management, so short story, we got the permission and its a success! not to mention i got hugged by Angga Maliq & D'essential! *jaw opens*

It was so much fun! (I did get a flu afterward, no big deal! heheh)

photo montage of Hug Campaign 2011 (i'm the one holding all posters and hug campaign writing on the floor *guilty*)

This year, YES! we plan on doing it again, with some TEDxJakarta mini talks in the end of the day as you can see here

Lesson learned from last hug campaign was : the BIGGER the sign, the MORE you get hugged (not that we count, lol!). Thus, I decorate a pair of TEDxJakarta tshirt on the back side, to attract more ppl to hug campaign and obviously to get more hugs! (yess, gw fakir peluk hahahaha)

How to/tutorial making the tshirt is on the next post here.


If you happen to be in Jakarta on 14th February, drop by to Pacific Place and i'll be gladly offer you a hug. *winks*
