Day 35

Before i start with today's events, i've got an announcement to make...this post is going to be the last one in this blog!!! Ahah yea you won't have to see anymore of my boring posts. :b

In the morning when we wanted to transfer our video to tape and CD (the video couldn't be burnt into CD in Jen's laptop either when she took it home to try yesterday), it took us over and hour just to get it transferred! We tried to transfer with 2 different video cameras, 5 fire wires, burn it to a CD again (but we later heard that we cannot burn videos to CDs in the lab's computers :O) and at least 3 different computers but it still wouldn't work! But finally after using another video camera (i think it's Yi Chuin's one), we were able to transfer the video to tape. :] We were all pretty damn worried as the deadline was at 12 and we've overshot the time. luckily, the lecturers extended the time to 1pm and so we were able to submit our tape a few minutes after 1pm.

Anyway, after that we went to the lecturer theater, and most of the groups were there already. There was a screening of all the videos done by the different groups in MOI. i must say that I'm super impressed with some of the videos!! i could see that there were alot of effort put into every group's video but the two that stood out the most to me has to be Tri's and Raj's group videos! i just never got bored watching hose two videos and the animations for both videos are absolutely wonderful! i love how raj's video flow...the transitions were really good and man...the 3D animation for that video was stunning. Literally stunned me. Some of the videos are really funny and entertaining as well. I thought Apple's group video is very lighthearted and funny and i enjoyed that video alot. :]

During the screening of our video, I felt pretty nervous...I was worried that the content might bore some people. Hopefully everyone somewhat enjoyed the video! But after it was screened, I felt kinda relieved and happy because finally our P1 is over!! Since the production package is done, all we've left to do is to complete our blogs and print out our entries for submission. :]

From this module, I've learn that its very important to plan!! so that the work load will be spread out over the duration of the project, instead of it being concentrated at the end. That pretty much happened to us. We did plan out our schedule but we didn't anticipate certain things that might crop up...like not being able to transfer our video etcetc. So i've learn that i should at least leave a couple of days empty, so that in case such things do pop up, we will be ahead of schedule. ;] i also have to pay more attention to details like the lighting and all.

Once again, huge huge THANKS to those who have helped out with the video! Alvin, Germaine, those who have helped in someway or another (lecturers and classmates) when we were faced with any sort of difficulties and of course, last but not least, Alfie! :] And how can i ever forget...MY GROUP MEMBERS!!! It's been fun working with you guys. :] Even though we may face some problems along the way, we were able to overcome them together and come up with a completed video which i can safely say that i'm satisfied with. Soo...thank you SHUSHU, JENNYFULOPEZ, ADEBRUDDER and KALA!! :] We can finally all enjoy the upcoming hols. :]

And now...i bid you farewell!!
