Pay Attention
Success is a Determined Effort
If you're like most people, the only thing you know about the economy is what you're being told by someone (the news media or some economist who tells the news media) who is standing back and looking at the economy as a whole. They're viewing the economy as one views the ocean, beach or forest and its effect on the environment. It's as if they're compelling you to join them and look through their media window. They're not looking at each individual drop of water in the ocean, each individual grain of sand on the beach, or each individual tree in the forest.
Regardless of what the media claims or reports about the state of the economy yesterday, today, or tomorrow, it's easy to believe that the end is near. Don't lose sight of the fact that most, if not all, media thrives on bad news because that's what's what they think makes good copy. Good copy is what sells their product the news.
Think of it this way, people looking for bad news see the advertisement that pays for the media to tell them the bad news and they are tempted to buy because of the bad news which enticed them to look at the advertisement.
Accordingly, if you're tempted to use this type of tidings to rationalize about the state of your business, don't lose sight of the fact that your business, when compared to the economy as a whole, is as one drop of water in the ocean. Your success or failure is determined by your efforts and not by what the economy is doing. It doesn't even matter what the guy down the street is doing. It's you and what you are doing that make the difference between your profit and your loss.
You are doing something aren't you?

Business Vs Consumer Buying
The difference between the consumer and the business buyer is that the business buyer has to buy. The consumer may buy if he or she comes across something he or she wants to acquire. It may appear that the consumer is always buying but only if they are so inclined. Other than the necessities of life, consumer doesn't have to buy. The business buyer is always looking for something that the business has to buy. With the business buyers everything they buy is a necessity, while with the consumer, only some of the things they buy are necessities.

Internet Presence
Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment
http://toony7600.tripod.com
Currently under going reconstruction at http://www.robertperrett.com/price/
About the Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment website; familial relationships allowed me to assist Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment communicate to professional photographers of the world. Prior to the website, Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment publications were advertised and sold by direct mail. My design and plan of the Internet presence successfully replaced that direct mail effort.
I worked on this for eight years and honed my ability to accomplish all of Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment goals for the website. I really enjoyed challenge and now I feel that I must help others to achieve the same goals. Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment goals for now and for the future will be met by Robert Perrett Website and Graphic Development.
I attended the Los Angeles Unified School District's Independent Study School (home schooling), City of Angeles School from fifth grade through twelfth (June 2001 - received high school diploma from City of Angeles School).
During my sophomore year (1999) I proposed and was subsequently awarded a design and development project to post a City of Angeles School website on the LAUSD net. It was a beautifully designed complex HTML site. Meaning it had a lot of links to a lot of pages and I had a password with which I use to post it to the Internet. I authored many pages based upon my understanding and what I expected of the school. I heard no negative comments for the year that I was interested in the project. About a year after I put it up I received word that some of the info on the site didn't concur with what was in something called a Blue Book. I aspired to fix the deviations and requested access to the "Blue Book". I was informed that was not possible.
The Photography Research Institute Carson Endowment project became available around that time. That started out as a HTML site and progressed to Front Page 2000. I am now doing it with the current edition of Dreamweaver.
To summarize, I have experience in website design and development and I received my BFA May 2008 from California State University Fullerton (CSUF).
Strategic Web Design
History is replete with stories of Advertising Design and its requirements for exquisiteness of design and production to be successful. But then again there are stories about plain or crude production values which persuaded just as successfully as the exquisite presentations. It just didn't seem to make any difference just a long as the idea or concept of what was presented was done in a strategic and persuasive way.
Persuasive web design encompass the entire spectrum of communicating ideas. The strategy starts at a website or page and ends when an adequate number embraces the content.
It is possible produce individual elements to put together a Internet presence. But it is not practical as it is possible to put or fabricate an attractive sight and have it fail financially because not enough effort was expended to motivate viewers. Strategic web design required a complete and well thought strategy.
Although, it is true that while we specialize in Graphic Web Design, we also have done 3D work in Maya (where we Modeled and Textured a scarecrow), as well as specialization in the Digital and Traditional Illustrations. We also have associated Graphic Design with Live Action Videos for Film Production classifications. We learned that these projects embraced the strategic goals. We choose to incorporate interests in Graphic Design, Illustration, Animation, and Live Action Production and Post Production for linkage in strategic and persuasive web sites.

Another Portrait

Paint in Progress
Portraiture Work
I did some portraiture work over the summer using Corel Painter 9. I'll start posting it up on my blog. It took a long time getting each person's face right along with the color. I took pictures in Don's class as photo reference. This is one from a 3/4 angle which was really hard, but I kept at it, and voila here it is.
