Ser Yeet's DMD E-portfolio

Semester B:  Week 27 (Easter Break) Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 27 Showreel Planning Pt. 2 I was inspired by a showreel I came across on Behance (refer below). It is simple yet effective in conveying the technical skills of the creator to the viewer. With only a month left until submission (along with other assignments), I needed to find a way to make a showreel without using After Effects. This is because animating UI content in After Effects requires recreating wireframes from scratch, which is tedious and time-consuming. Fortunately, I found a platform called Jitter. It has a built-in Figma plugin that allows for a seamless transfer of designs and offers a good range of animation features. Although the free version is limited to a 720p export, it saves me a lot of time. Plus, I can always pay for the Pro version for about £14 and cancel the subscription afterwards. Not only that, learning how to use this platfo...

  Semester  B :  Week 27 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 27 Fluid Simulation After last week's tutorial with Mafalda, she provided a few links to YouTube tutorials that could be useful for my visuals. Finding a medium that truly captures the weight, grace, and silhouette of a dancer is hard, but I will try my best to make it work.  This was one of the videos she recommended: Mafalda warned me not to tweak anything while following the video, as that would make troubleshooting much harder later on. Eventually, I did make a few minor changes, but I took note of them so I can refer to them if need be. For example, because I was using a second monitor, the coordinates and code are different; however, the solution is to bypass the Math CHOP connected specifically for that monitor. Another thing I noted was that if the Mouse In CHOP freezes, the fix is to close and reopen the TouchDesigner software. Screenshot ...

  Semester  B :  Week 25 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 25 Change in Orientation Initially, my installation setup was going to be done parallel to the door, but after Monday's class, Steve thought it would be better to have it perpendicular instead so that the space could be maximised. I also had to bear in mind that another one of my classmates was also sharing this room with me. This meant that I had to change my layout once again and rearrange things. I wasn't pleased with the change, but after giving it a deeper thought, I realised that this adjustment was better because it gave me more distance and space to work with. For context, the projector can now sit further away from the screen (net curtain), solving the problem of getting the image to reach from floor to ceiling.
