Degree Project - Week 29 pt.2

   Semester  B :  Week 30 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 30 28/4/26 Feedback from Steve He likes the version with the pre-recorded video, but suggested duplicating the same video twice or thrice and having it appear with a slight delay The start could be just the pre-recorded piece playing, then I come in and interact with it  The shadow is not huge Following the feedback from Steve, I’m pivoting my technical and aesthetic approach. To eliminate the playback lag experienced on the high-spec i9 hardware, I am optimising the video resolution by moving from 4K down to 1080p. This adjustment significantly lowers the bitrate and data throughput requirements, ensuring a fluid frame rate without sacrificing visual quality once the content is integrated into the software environment.  Alongside this technical shift, a full-body white outfit is used to maximise the effectiveness of the projection.

Professional Practices - Week 29

Semester B:  Week 29 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 29 Updating the Portfolio Brainstorming Dean has been complaining about how my online portfolio resembles a tech website, such as Apple or Samsung. I finally decided to change it today. I was inspired by  Aristide Benoist's portfolio, where the creator applied  the contrast between the small-lowercase typography and the large-scale elements, especially with the vibrant text against the dark background. Aristide Benoist's Portfolio I took those ideas and made adjustments to my current website. Before that, I selected two colour palettes that had two complementary colours to stand out.
