A bubble bursts... POP! Welcome to i burst the bubble (dot com), S tephen Farrugia's online portfolio and a window to contact the world.
The website is divided into three main sections:
Photography - A wide range of photos taken in Malta and abroad.
Design - graphic design and illustrations created by Stephen as part of university coursework, for commercial clients, for charity, and for the fun of it.
Misc - a variety of works which fall under no particular category - music videos, short films, scale models etc.
News and Updates:
22/04/2007: Work, work, and more work!
It's now almost seven months since I started working for Salesian Press as a Graphic Designer and pre-press operator. The learning curve has been steep, the work is very taxing and the hours are long, but seeing your work go from a concept sketch to a finished product is VERY rewarding and makes up for all the hassles along the way!
I still haven't updated the Design section of the website, but don't worry, that's coming soon - I want to rearrange the design section and bring it in line with the layout of the Photography gallery. The Miscellaneous section has been replaced by the Video section, where I will be uploading some videos and short clips that I've filmed or edited.
Updates: I've uploaded a couple of new photos to the Photography gallery.
05/10/2006: Gallery Updates
The Photography Galleries have been revamped and updated- now you get to scroll-over the name of the photo and a low-res image will load on the page. To view the image at a higher resolution simply click on the name of the picture, and a window will pop up with the image of choice. In time I will be adding details about the works in the pop-up page. The Design Gallery will be updated and brought in line in the coming weeks, and I'll finally be adding some things to the Miscellaneous section.
In other news, this month I will be taking a beginner's course in Flash, and this week I start working as a Graphic Designer in a printing press.

30/07/2006: Stephen Farrugia, B. Communications (Hons)!
University's been over for almost two months now, results are out, and I am now officially a B. Communications (Hons) graduate on paper... the actual graduation cermony is in November.
The photography section has some new stuff in it, look at the Nature, Abstract and Urban galleries.
Also, as a special treat you can download my Communicating with Music class project that was created with Jonn Galea (www.mhuxjien.com): it's a trailer for a Kung Fu movie called 'Monkey Fist Floating Snake'. The trailer was created by editing the original movie in Final Cut Pro, while the dialogue and sound effects were recorded at the CCT Audio Lab and editing on ProTools Lite 7.0. It was lots of fun to make, I hope it's fun for you to watch! Hi quality video (13.8MB) Low Quality Video (5.5MB). You'll need Quicktime or another MP4 player to watch the video. Right click/save target as... to download, or just click the link to watch the video in your browser.

02/06/2006: Website goes live!
At long last i burst the bubble (dot com) is online. All galleries are functioning and will be expanded in the coming months. For now I will be taking a break from working on the website as I'm in the middle of my final exams, the last of which is on the 12th of June.
Cheers
Stevo
