Hello

Welcome to gabali.co.uk, the site of Anna Gabali.

I am a Multimedia Lecturer/Digital Artist.

Miss Gabali

I am now working withing the Aldult Learning sector which very enjoyable and stress free.

I  used to teach at a Further Education college, I can say that I have been successful in  fulfilling my duties as a leader;  developing skills, providing quality learning resources, initiating enterprise for talented groups. Now I am sharing a part of my life that I enjoyed the most, making multimedia easy to understand.

Since 2006, I have shared the knowledge and given most of my genius to students; it is hard (teaching), but I am happy to see students leaving from level 2 Multimedia (NOCN) to University, others going freelance, and some gaining the confidence to get ahead in life. With the level 2 students I worked wonders with EVs satisfied that my students were producing work at level 3. That is a stressful challenge considering that for the last 2 years I have worked with hill equipped rooms, and computer, but I have managed to get students to produce interesting things; some have gone straight to university, some have started working in the media and a few have or are launching successful businesses;-

Apart from teaching Multimedia, I also teach ICT preparing my students for the City & Gulids, and NONC exam level 1 and 2, doing this for the last 3 years, I manage to to get a very good pass rate for exams, considering that IT is usually time tabled in January, and exams are in April/May.

If you are wondering what Qualifications I have to be able to teach all this;-

• Postgraduate Diploma in New Media Management gained at Birkbeck 2001 (with Merit 65%)
• Diploma of Higher Education in Information Technology gained at UEL
• Certificate & Diploma IT Applications (Database-web Design – Web graphics – Multimedia) gained at Birkbeck
• HDN Graphic Design (1srt year) gained at Newham College

I was born in the French Caribbeans (Guadeloupe), raised in Suresnes (Paris), and am now leaving in London. In France I was lucky enough to get work experience with the biggest names in advertising such as En Direct, Publicis and Young & Rubiccam, I guess the fact that I spoke more that one language helped a lot, but to tell you the truth, languages, sports, music and art were my best subjects. I also worked for a while at Ersnt & Young  (la Defence) as a bilingual receptionist, but got scared when offered an assistant job and left a team of good friends behind. I arrived in London in 93 and started my live as an immigrant and experienced things that I was not even aware of in France.

My site was designed and is maintained by me.  After years of experience in teaching webdesign, I decided to get back to designing website starting by my own. Off course this site is under construction and more will be added to it.

I am also try to re-launch a digital art career, that I left behind when I lost a dear friend and my mum who were my inspiration.

The Equipment I use

For photography

I use a Canon 450d and a Sony Alpha 200 (to be soon upgraded), some images, but not all are processed using imaging software packages, and most of the work can be reproduced for print. For the last 3 years, I have been building an extensive library of pictures, mainly landscape, and flowers. I try to keep the reproduction level to a maximum (1000 per images), I will soon be selling my art from this site, once I found a good solution that works for me.

For Digital Art

This year I am again interested in Fractal Art using different type of software to produce abstract art that keeps your feelings and emotions awake.

Fluf-Eye Abstract by Miss Gabali

With Digital Art I go through the motions and use what inspires me to create digital imagery, very interested in Digital Painting, and also enjoying the power of abstract form, I enjoy getting people moved by something which does not makes sense, as you of ten find the viewer will make it perfect  in their own world. In terms of Photography I am able to undertake commissions  for any purpose requiring high-quality images. Images will as high-resolution files (any format). While awaiting for a on-line shopping solution, you can always contact me for more information.
