Launching of the 8th Edition Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary

Before I get into the topic, let me apologies for not uploading my blog for quite a time, I was busy for some events and some personal stuff, and I felt tire and bit lazy to blog after my working day and even weekend. Besides that, I will try to update the event I been gone through, and this is the first one, the launch of the 8th Edition Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, OALD in short.

Last week Thursday I went for the launching of OALD happened at the residence of British High Commission Kuala Lumpur. It is the first launching event I ever done and I was the photographer and helpers for my company during that event.

Actually not much for saying, just some VIPs, media, guest, student, mountain of dictionary and loads of photos...

I never see a dictionary been arrange this nice before

During the event, almost every guest is given a FREE copy of this dictionary which cost RM 89.90 with the CD that contain the software version of OALD and some cool feature where I thought it suit me very much. And YES, I DO have a copy for free too.. hahaha

Actually the cover is quite nice, look very pro

Other than shooting photos, I also the designer for this event backdrop. I been working this out for almost 1 week because there are many editing here and there, but in the end the result was fantastic, and I never done something this big before (I think)

1 week of hard work, it may look simple, but trust me, it is not when doing it

And another thing that I quite happy is my photos shot during this event is publish in newspaper and some online news website.
