Today, we tried doing the introduction of the flowy journey and of the introduction of the group members as well. Man i tell you.. Don't just see and think that both the introduction of members and flowy journey looks easy to do. In fact, it was so tedious that it actually took us quite awhile to film it man.
Most of the time, the scene or rather the shoot turned out to be either not smooth or looks jerky instead. Therefore, we had to take it over and over again. I think for more than five times as what we wanted was more of a smooth and also not making the audience to feel giddy; which was really tough to do as well and to give the feeling that we wanted. Furthermore, we wanted to take the flowy journey thing where noone would be present. However, whenever we wanted to take, people would always walk past the bridge. Thus, wasted our time having to wait for them taking their time to walk.
Up till now, our flowy thingy is not finalised yet as it was still jerky i believe. We also did on the introduction of our group members and indeed, we faced the same problem. People were walking past the design entrance which also slowed down our process. Sorry members but we really cant blame people for walking ya. Furthermore, the part where Ting Yu had to jump looks kind of weird, so we decided to let her run up front and then jump. I believe it was tough for Aaron having to zoom accurately showing Ting Yu's full body once she jump. Thanks Aaron for the work well done.We did our introduction and tried animating of the door. Thanks Yi Chuin for doing the door for us. She helped to do the door, at least today we finalised the colour of the door which was to be red.
However, we wasn't sure what colour the frame outside the door should be. Hmm.. Having a tough time to think i guess. Luckily many people helped and some of their inputs were taken. Raj who was just a few metres beside us working on his mountains, said that red would be nice for the outside frame of the door. Both Ting Yu and Aaron gave the same comments as well. So yup we had finalised the colour of the door which is to be red and the frame would be darker red. The red would be of the left side of the door, the darker red has not been placed yet at the moment.
It will look something like this:
Laugh out loud.. Looking at the time now, we nearly forgot that there would be an interim assessment the next day. We panicked and our hearts nearly came out. Thank God, Aaron had already completed the script after Wahidah commented on it. We again discussed what should be included in the slides. I did the slides and send it to Yi Chuin to give comments on it and she said it was okie.
Here was the slides' content:
Reason for adding puppet:
We added this puppet to make it like as though it is our fifth member in the group. It would always like to be in the lime light, having to be on camera. It will be very curious into finding out the course, so it could be seen at certain areas trying to listen or even explore the school itself. However, it will only come to life or hide away from Yi Chuin, the creator of it.
What we have done?
-We have begin animating the door for the introduction but still in progress as we need to animate the mouse cursor and of which color the door should be
-Started doing a portion of the stone which will form the group’s name
-Introduction of group members, however it didn’t turn out to be successful.
Filming of the flowy journey but it too didn’t turn out as what we expected. We didn’t really expected that the introduction of members and even the flowy journey itself would be that tough to film. One thing for sure, the camera that we used is bulky and heavy as well. Whenever, we wanted to film the introduction of members, people would always walk past. Furthermore, when we film Ting Yu, it was kind of weird just seeing her jump so we decided to let her run up front and jump to make it more natural.
What we intend to finish by:
Thursday:
- finish taking pictures of Ting Yu running
- Animating of door with mouse cursor
- Choosing of storyboard
- Sending of script to Mr. Alan, Mr. Julian and Mr. Ronald so that they can get a hang of it what we are going to do
Friday / Saturday:
- to complete filming of introduction of members and the 3d door
Saturday:
- shooting of ‘flying camera’ journey
Sunday:
- Yi Chuin continue animating the stone
Monday:
- Film the scene of Mr. Alan and Mr. Julian
Tuesday:
- Filming on Mr. Ronald
Not forgetting that Ting Yu had edit the storyboard by adding the mini puppet and changing of frame 39. Thanks Ting Yu too. Yup.. However, i felt that energy are wasted having the introduction to turn out to be trial runs instead but i also take it as a learning ground for me, making me learn my mistakes. Having a mistake, is another experience earn. Not to worry, we will do our utmost best into completing this project.
To Group members: Don't let our spirit and strong- will die down. let's move on forward and think positive.
Cheers people. Have to get cracking on the slides' background. Take care people
