Hmm,didn't expect to be back here so soon,I thought yesteerday was the last day of MOIP1.
The whole of MOI year ones gathered at LT 25 this afternoon for the screening of our projects. It feels really nice at these times. You meet everyone you didn't see for so long and a cosy feeling comes in. We sat together and we laugh,talk and joke. This is the time when we see everyone's work and applaud them for their efforts and heave a sigh of relief.
Finally a heavy workload is off our shoulders and you can really feel the burden lifting off when you see everyone having fun,because it's the last day!!(:
I believe many feel the same way as me too. haha
Wow,and today was really an eye opener, saw many fresh new ideas,beautiful audios that I would never have been able to come up with and also some really excellent animations from Raj's ,Naf's and Tri's group, and including Adeline who is very good at it. It really inspired me to do well for my course. And I'm really lucky to have Adeline in my group,her animation is soooo professional!!^^^^
The comments for our video was that the sound quality was really bad,which was very true and Cheryl and I felt that it was actually a little boring.I hoped we could have added more comedy
the next time if there is a chance.
We've learnt something new,and our journey will continue on. Hope that the many months of struggles and sadness Ihad during the past year will help strengthen me to be a more confident person,like voicing out your thoughts without fear during group disccussions,or even learn to be more socialable everywhere you go.
This marks the end of my first year in Temasek Design School Moving Images Course!(:
Till then,see ya world.(:

Day 30
Yay!! Hi-5!
Our video is only left with the uploading to do.
My group members were already at it when I came down to meet them. Sorry! They're really nice people. I'm glad all this is soon coming to an end with our stress levels decreasing.
Things are looking brighter now. No more bad feeling! haha.
Am quite glad that the audio pieces I passed to Cheryl were used. Made me feel more contribution given in one way or another.
Playing back the video,and especially when it came to the bloopers part, I had a good laugh with my groupmates. It brought back such memories.At least, it softened the atmosphere and it made me feel, it wasn't that bad afterall,although we had met with so much roadblocks along the way, we had our fair share of laughs too.
Just the other day I was walking with Cheryl and she told me,"this project will cause some to lose their frienddships,however,it will also stregthen some bonds."
It got me thinking,and how true it was I felt. Feels quite emo,but yeah, we have reached the last day and Cheryl just told me on MSN to take pictures together tomorrow as it is the last day of our MOIP1 and our group.
We will be majoring in different things after this,I'll miss everyone, and for some,quite alot.
Take care all,I'm glad I got to know u all.(:
Bye world!

Day 29
Went to school again at 9 for Mfund before going down to meet the rest at 12.Was feeling rather sleepy from these few days.
Felt quite stressed these few days as I thought we might be unable to complete the video on time.Sice Friday aftrnoon,I rushed out the storyboards till around 5am in the morning so that I can bring it for the group to check, and hopefully,start on my Mfund projects after that.
Although we met up on Saturday to continue our work,Cheryl and I somehow had a bad feeling.
After that while waiting for the editing to be done by the rest, I did the titles of our modules to be put into the video with a little flash in it.Didn't expect that I will have to do till evening time.): After that,we uploaded the swf files and guess what?!! Cheryl found a spelling error in one of my titles. haha. Luckily she had sharp eyes.I had been looking at it for hours and didn't realise it. Sorry, my bad. hehe. Adeline then helped me correct it and we picked another font together which has improvised it's looks! happy.
I went home with Adeline after that while poor Cheryl stayed behind for the uploading works with Derick, but he Cheryl asked him to leave first.
I guess I shall blog till here,got lotsa stuff piling up.STRESS!
Mfund,here i come!
All the best.):

Friday
For the 1st time,I'm worried that it's already Friday although this is the day where i can finally get some rest.
Derick has a dental appointment today so he didn't come.
There are so many things left untouched and so many deadlines to fulfil. Adeline is stil rushing on animation,and Cheryl as always, editing our video. She's like the video queen in our group.haha
Luckily we have her,professional.lol. I'm quite lousy at video editing especially.
Adeline's animation is also super high standard.Super cute and looks very original and captivating!
Pressurising to be in animation with her.lol
Tomorrow we will still go back to school too. Derick has a wedding dinner to attend,so he won't be able to come too,but he says he'll be looking for the video's background music over the weekends.
Alfie told us that the screenshots of the video are not considered as storyboards. So I will be doing them. I hope I can finish soon,mayb by tomorrow latest then at least I can start on Mfund without worrying too much.
Oh my,I feel so stressed,I think I will not go to bed tonight so that i can finish the whole storyboard in one day and bring it to school to show Adeline and Cheryl tomorrow should there be a need for any changes.
I better continue now.seeu.(:

Thursday
Encountered some problems in Mfund, rushed down for MOIP1 interim,but I was really late. The whole group was already there and the interim's almost done. I'm sorry. After that I had to rush off for my other interview while the group went to eat.
Sorry,sorry.
After all the interviews ended,I met up with the group and cheryl was editing the software and Adeline was on her animation.
Hmm,I wonder how should we spice up our video so that it will be more attention grabbing.
Perhaps we can reduce the footage of the host and add in more of our portfolio works so that we can see more stuff.
After Derick left,the three of us discussed more in detail while waiting for the video to be uploaded too.
I thought of an idea that maybe as the host speaks,we can zoom into perhaps his mouth or something then it fades off and leads to our artworks so as to add a lilttle comedy in it too.
But Adeline says there's a time constraint,so we shall see.
That's all for today then,tired tired,Adeline seems like she's falling sick soon.
See you.(:

11 March
Wednesday is coming, means our presentation is due!
We are so much behind schedule as the camera experienced lots and lots of techinal problems.
There were times when the vieo could not be uploade at all, there was totally zero response, and there were times when we are finally able to upload, thesound dosen't go in sync with the video and we have to redo it all over again. Before all that we had to find out the cause of the problem too, and doing so, we had to run down to the camera loan room for almost about 9 times just to change the fire wire, tape of camera to find out which is working and which is not.
Fustrations.):
About 6 plus 7pm, the video uploading was finally successfully uploaded.
There Cheryl and Derick rushed the editing so that Mr Alfie can see it and comment on it tomorrow and Adeline and I rushed our animation parts.
Too much work,too little time, guess I better continue my work now.
Shall blog till here,rush rush time! seeyou!

Day 23
Friday is finally here, haha. Am quite tired from MOI and MMFund, hope it all comes down to something good as my energy level has depleted alot already.
Derick is sick,so he's not been here since yesterday and Cheryl,Adeline and I continued.
We were supposed to meet today fo further editing but no arrangement was made yesterday night and now,after Mfund, they cancelled it.
But there was an urgent meeting called up by Moses at 4.30 later on,so I just have to stay till then.):

Day 22
After mfund today,Cheryl told me Derick was not coming and Adeline would be late,so we both just sat there for awhile and Cheryl accompanied somewhere before going to the library,thank u!(:
Met Adeline there and there we went to the 2d animation studio to upload our video,but can't!
Initially thought it was the fire wire,thus we went down to change and came back up,still didn't work,then realised it was the camera,went down to change and finally can!
But this time,all the computers we tried, about three of them didn't work till the third. Just then,Cheryl said she could upload it at home for us so we did not have to wait there for many hours cause we have THREE tapes. haha. Thanks alot!!!!
Thus we had a short day and left after lunching together.
Hope tomorrow will be a short day too,got lotsa work to do for Mfund,but I know it's not very possible.haha.
Till then,seeya!

Day 22-End of our shoot
We started the day filming the introduction outside the 2D art animation room.
Then, we went to film inside the animation studio,before going to the ground level to film the end of the video animation module.
After that,we went to the 3D art studio and e-space to film our "interview" parts.
YAY!!
We have officially finished the filming part of our video today.
Initially I thought we would be late in that part and may have to rush towards the end,luckily,it's over now and my fears are gone.(:
But we have alot of editing,voice over and animation stuff to do in compiling our video together.
Through the days we faced countless problems due to the stress in us and those emitted from classmates in our cohort too. All the other groups have very interesting ideas in their video and are very much better and ahead of our us.
Although we may not be as good as theirs,but at least we have put in our best and that's more than enough for me. We have started from arguments to discussion,teamwork and finally team spirit.I hope the later part of our journey will grow to be better and more fufilling.
I am really grateful for everything that has helped us come thus far and I hope the later days will be smooth too.
Tomorrow is a rest day for the group,so I can rest too, after my morning class in the morning.):
Allebest to everyone and good luck all.
Rest well dear group members. smiles*
