INSTRUCTION



Week 1 
Today, Ms Anis told us the exercises and the projects that we have to do in  the future. We were also informed about the exercise 1 which is the Quantify Data. Ms Anis showed us the works by the previous students and we start our exercise. Our group topic is the 'MLM'.


Exercise 1 / Quantifiable Information
After looking around my house, I decided to work on Chinese coins. I found out some old fashion and no longer use coins, some old fashion but still using coins and some new fashion coins. 



After getting Ms Anis's feedback, I knew the photo that I took has bad quality and lighting. So I decided to change the materials to do this exercise. I bought these glass decorates from web and took photos in the morning which has good daylight.



After the lecture & feedback from Ms Anis, We then did a AE Exercise with Mr Shamsul.



Week 2 (15/01/2021)

Mr. Shamsul gave us the example video about kinetic typography exercise, and then he gave us the audio to let us make AE homework from it.

Week 3 (19/01/2021)

Ms. Anis checked our google drive folder to see our progress in Exercise 2 which is the LATCH Exercise.

I chose pokemon as my topic. This is my rough sketch.



Mr. Shamsul told us to share our video links into google classroom to let him see what we've done so far, and he will give us the feedback. this is my work below.

Final outcome:


Ms Anis briefed us about Project 1 and told us to watch the Pasta Grannies from Youtube and pick 1 video for our Project 1.

Week 4 (26/01/2021)

In Ms Anis's class, we shawn our rough sketches, color tones, mood board and ideas for Project 1. Then, in Mr Shamsul's class we were told to share our screens to show him our weather report video. This is my weather report video at the bottom.

Feedback

Week 1 :
No feedback.

Week 2 :
Ms Anis said that I need to change the materials and change time to took photo. So I change the materials to glasses and chose a good day time to took the photo.

Week 3 :
Ms Anis liked my layout and design for LATCH exercise and she let me add the black outline to make my poster more distinct.

Mr Shamsul said my Kinetic Typography video need to improve, add more modalities of the words.
Week 4 :
Mr Shamsul said my Weather video looks ok, but the movement of the words are too fast, need to slow down.

Reflections

Week 1 :
Ms Anis and Mr Shamsul explained everything about what we should do during this short semester. Mr Shamsul let us found the groupmates for the groupwork.
Week 2 :
I understand infographics can be made by very simple things, such as coins, buttons and so on.
Week 3 :
I'm happy when I'm doing LATCH exercise. I learnt how to draw the game map digitally.
Week 4 :
It's great to be up on the AE by doing the weather report exercise. However, I still need to improve.
