Creative Work - Korobushka


This is a video of my 2009 House Concert, where the three houses of the school compete and put on a concert of 30 minutes. The year 12 group of each house must organise the concert from repertoire selection to stage movements. This is the a clip of a piece that a friend and I orchestrated, conducted and performed as soloist. Probably the most difficult part of creating this performance was the orchestration by listening to the CD and transcribing onto manuscript. Organising a group of fifty to play together was not an easy task either however the end result was well worth the challenge.

Original photograph of something beautiful

This is one of the two hundred photos I took of my dog's first litter of puppies. I spent hours trying to get a good shot of my dog and her litter together naturally. I especially love this photo because it really shows the irreplaceable love of a mother and her off spring. The blurred effect of the photo gives the image a nostalgic flashback ambience which makes this beautiful.

Great piece of architecture Arch 1101


These are two pictures of the Palace of Versailles in France. I consider this palace to be a great piece of architecture because of the extensive use of gardens and fountains to enhance the atmosphere of the building itself. The palace gardens cover more than 800 hectares and also features hundreds of fountains which also add to its uniqueness. I believe any building is always aggrandized further with a proportionate garden to complement it.
