  Semester B:  Week 28 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 28 Feedbacks Showreel Change the title type style from Instrument Serif Italic to Regular because it looks old-fashioned Have the first text appear in sync with the first ping from the sound effect Updated Title Style Portfolio Mafalda suggested finding suitable colours on  https://colorhunt.co/ It doesn't seem to accurately represent me as a person (try changing to this colour palette:  https://colorhunt.co/palette/7daacbe8dbb3fffdebce2626 ) The logo could be scaled up to showcase its beauty, e.g. putting it on the right side of the hero section

Professional Practices - Week 27 (Easter Break)

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...

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 ...
