Degree Project - Evaluation Document

Semester  B :  Week 31 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 31 Evaluation of the Sixth Sense Performative Installation by Ser Yeet Tai This evaluation observes the mechanical and creative aspects of Sixth Sense, an interactive performative installation that embodies the concept of proprioception, which is the body’s ability to feel its own movement and position in space. As the digital landscape evolves with social media being the main medium of communication, a prevalent shift where dancers prioritise looking good for social media has triumphed over deep introspection. This screen-obsessive culture, reinforced by mobile phone addiction and a dependency on online validation, often leads to emotional detachment. Hence, the installation acts as a live mirror that resembles the participant’s internal state and pulls the focus away from external aesthetics. Furthermore, the idea pulls influences from the immersive exhibiti...

Degree Project - Week 31

  Semester  B :  Week 31 Student:  Tai Ser Yeet (22064351) Programme:  BA (Hons)(SW) Digital Media Design WEEK 31 05/5/26 Feedback from Dean Promotional Poster Put the date below the title Increase the font size of my name because that needs to be the most important The AM and PM for the time needs to be in lowercase Move the image so there is more ground, and you'd be able to add text at the bottom Change the dance installation word to performative installation Make my name bigger because I have to give myself more credence Compile links to my promotional video  Promotional Video The audio is out of sync with the video clips Change the filler clip showing the visual from the blue-yellow noise to the final visual, so it does not look like it is a lazy edit and maintains continuity with the background visual in the clip Taking Dean’s suggestion to expand the horizontal composition, I used a layer-duplication and masking technique. By isolating the left edge ...

Degree Project - Week 30

   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.
