FYP PANEL POSTERS

Hi guys, we have received notifications about the three panels posters on the 10th January, that are going to be done by the 17th January. Thus, the team have met up for their splitting of work. Mandy was doing the first panel poster, Sharon was doing the second panel poster whereas Geraldine was doing the third panel poster and lastly, Li Jun started on the initial part of the FYP team report.

After the splitting of the tasks, we are asked to go back and draft out a poster and if possible, we will ask the other teammates for their feedback. The style that we are looking for in all the three posters are that we are going to include "polka dots". This is to identify all the three posters of similar styles that belonged to us.

Our next meeting will be on the 16th January, to consolidate all the three posters and to amend whatever that is needed to submit on the 17th. We also arranged a meeting with our adviser, Joseph Tan, to vet through our posters on the 16th.

EXECUTION FOR FYP TRAILER

The three girls meet up earlier for the execution of the trailer as Sharon were still having her internship. They meet up at about 11am in the morning and start borrowing of equipments to film the trailer; Panasonic AVCHD camcorder and tripod. At about 2pm, we start off with taking time lapse of the team discussion for about 20 minutes. Our idea is to take at least 20 minutes of the time lapse and continue to fast forward the clip.

After taking the time lapse, we continued on to taking a portrait shot of the individuals in the team. Aftermath, we piece the clips together and used a bubble to illustrate the conversation that we are having, continued by the time lapse of team discussion.

We've completed editing about 5pm.

TRAILER FOR FYP

Hi guys, we are back again! We are informed that we got to complete our 30 seconds trailer by 6 January to determine if we are suitable for the FYP showcase. Thus, we have to gather all the information and discuss. The girls meet up on Wednesday, 4 January, to discuss on the ideas of making this trailer. We meet up on 12 noon and start discussing after lunch. After much discussions, we have finally decided on one idea where we will start with the "The journey of the four girls..." then we will have the four girls appearing on the screen. There will be a conversation between us which appears to be like

Geraldine: "Hey! What are we going to do for FYP?"
Sharon: "Faci say Problem-based learning system leh."
Li Jun: "HUH!?!! PBL?!? SO BORING!"
Mandy: "SIAN"

Then the text "The journey begins..." start appearing. Next there will be a time lapse of the four girls discussing about FYP in the school library. Then zoom in to PBL on the paper that we have been discussing it earlier on. Next will be the text "The Result...?"

The idea is to show that the four girls are busy brainstorming about the very first video that we are going to show on PBL. Thus, we will then start on the execution on the next day!

Stay tuned!
