Hi DG078-1 Group 1,

Attached are those selected students that required to do presentation on week 12.
On top of that, I would like to send you details regarding to the submission (on week 13 the latest). Please refer to the following:

CD
- website root folder: consists of all of the web documents, images, artworks, media files, resume (.pdf and .jpg[optional]), etc.
- raw files folder: consists of all of the raw files related to the slicing of web design, and resume design (.psd, .ai, .docx, etc.)
- references folder: consists of resources and references that obtained during research and development (files, images, online URL, etc.) as credits for the resources
- readme file: if there is any notes you would like to highlight.

Workbook
- should have started with brief elaboration of the concept and or the theme chosen (e.g. the rationale of it)
- should have documented the whole progress of the research, design, and development for the portfolio website
- should have added with screenshots or thumbnails of websites (with URL provided) that had inspired you
- should have added with images that had inspired you
- should have added with sketches of the website design, one version or more than one versions, as well as the general site structure or grid system
- should have added with a few screenshots of final design of your portfolio website
- should have included brief descriptions and reflections throughout the whole progress

P.S: The content of workbook is not evaluated based on the quantity, but the quality. It doesn’t need to be very lengthy. The important thing is clarity of the research, design, and development progress.

And for the coming two weeks (week 12 and week 13), it is gonna be your show time. So get ready for the presentation. Everyone has to attend the session as support to your classmates though you are not presenting on that day. Those presenters do make sure you look smart during your presentation day with proper attire.
Be confident and good luck.

Sincerely,
yennee

whoa, she sent 3 times

well, it's actually all different but still same,
so hardworking, here's what she sent :

Hi DG078-1 Group 1,

I would like to inform about the cancelation of class on next week (3 Feb 2010) since I will be on sick leave for one week. Replacement class will be held on week 8 exploration week. So the next class will be on 10 Feb 2010, Monday.

For the second weekly evaluation on the week after next week (10 Feb 2010), basically you all have to improve and further develop your portfolio website based on the comments and feedbacks given from us (me and tutor) during the first weekly evaluation. For those who did not turn up for the first weekly evaluation, there will be no replacement anymore and you will get zero marks.

So for next round, basically you need to provide the following:
- propose new idea or refine the current idea (if you are advised to do so)
- continue doing research and to document every progress as well as development on workbook (e.g. references of websites, books, graphics, animations, navigation design, etc.)
- provide brief descriptions on workbook to explain on the research you have done (e.g. as in how those resources inspire you, etc.)
- provide more in depth or detail sketches that are able to show your proposed interface designs, layout designs, and navigation designs
- site map can be produced as well in order to show the overview of the website structure and hierarchy
- do think about the colors schemes of the site (e.g. you may design digital layout of your web pages using Illustrator and/or Photoshop)

See you all then. Have fun working with your portfolio website.

Cheers,
yennee

plus she added a supposedly updated version of the 3 lesson 4 files in th first mail
she sent to everyone so can download from your mail

hmm, where's all my posts ?

oh, ter-set the schedule thing wrongly
ohwell
anyway, new layout, more of you and less of me

todays marketing notes

the one in class

http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/845954/2009%2010%2022%20marketing%20note.rtf

in case anyone was wondering

the editing and compositing class there's no like

weekly assignments need to pass up only the really really

final one which the lecturer placed a folder in the server

but anytime you can show him your work and he'll give critique

well nvm

heard news there's none of that

2-4 friday thing, so no need to come

well ok

now vincent wants the representative

thing next week and to remind him that

g2 has a class before his

this friday some of you may have heard

there's going to be a video camera

'how to use session' at 2-4 which yongkang

said he'll tell us where but hasn't yet

we're waiting on pohhui to remind him

on where the location will be

i have received information

that this fridays class,

that show movie and presentation one,

is 930 at J3 ah,

but everyone come early to transfer files

to the class computer,

oh and vincent said one representative of

every group come early next week to gamble

for a place in the A1 A2 place thing

daaah

it's a big file

http://dl.getdropbox.com/u/845954/Biz%20and%20Client%20Mgmt%2008.zip

for business

well i was a bit confused when vincent guy

changed the thai restaurant thing into something

more general, but i think it's a bit better cos not

everyone can cook nyonya and or thai

anyway the files from the lecture i'll post tomorrow

cos i only got half of them from ben now

or is it later today

in case some are not clear

on what to do next week animation

important one is sack must be finished

fully rigged and textured and stuff like that

i think

then some animation tests

like running and jumping

du one or more

then maybe 10% blocking for final animation

and optional are

more refined pose sheet and that playblast

thing if haven't pass up today

i was told

for visual storytelling class

monday (5/10) done storyboard and book

friday (9/10) finish the short film

can start shooting film anytime

friday (2/10) no class cos the replacement is on 9

so fast have to finish the movie

extra class

you know, that optional one which

you don't have to go and intended

only for those who have trouble in

class

yea, it's on saturday 4-6pm

after group2 class in 3d dglab 1

if saturday is not a good time

can always change next week orso

so kevin said

he wants to have an OPTIONAL extra class

for weeks that the lecture is too hard and

wants to know when we prefer to have it

he's free whole day monday, friday and saturday

there is no

business class tomorrow

so next weeks assignment

just 3 things :

one

animated storyboard timing

pal, 25 f/ps, 768x576 square pixel ratio

two

sack turnaround

with texture and wireframe

same setting as above

three

sack keyposes

on a4 or something

like a4 size jpeg

digital

not paper

or something

yea

what she said

Friday replacement class for Visualstory Telling

Replacement class will be held at J3, same time as monday, said yong kang

the adventures of priscilla

i thought it was a nice movie

cos

the beginning was funny

anyway, got homework for that

they want an essay on why you think

the movie was good and i think they

want to hear the technical side more

so the essay is somewhere around one

a4 page, nothing too long

oh, and friday replacement class for

last week monday

same time same place

be there be square

thanks mr symph

anyway, so i hear there's going to be class on

monday (14) instead of monday (28) as the schedule says

bummer i say

but pass around the info to those who don't know

animation storyboard

kevin wants to have a unified storyboard layout
for the proper animation storyboard we start
doing on week 2 and show on week 3
i propose we use this layout

http://dg078-1.googlegroups.com/web/2009+09+16+animation+storyboard.jpg?gda=1nOqgFYAAACKPVJzkUhXF5-QDzTzVtAGbnGzFgQBK0Y0F_nmUh__Oh5X9cgbNFzsKh1LxWbCkVNHr-VXx3CLTyqbYCY7JyibWSRz-Detb09CwKfN2BgOPBPhGuxsWDLdLep2NLleRSE&gsc=mWixvwsAAABFCqD1L8kuxjfvRMQCwkYV

i hope you all behave

you have failed me

*a derivative of the TF administrators announcement

It saddens me that despite societies best efforts to instruct and better you, some of you insist on finding new ways to act immature. All public announcement boxes has been removed till further notice while contacts and personal information has been archived into a secure directory.
To the majority of you who did not see fit to act childish, you have my congratulations: I await the countless other ways you will inevitably disappoint me in the future.
Have a nice holiday.

erm if anyone is reading

seamus called me, 430 something to be exact

he said he did not recieve many works

so he wants to pass a message

PASS UP AT 5 !!

complete or not a deadline is a deadline he says

anything later is not accepted

if you know anyone who has not finished tell them

in case anyone wondering

tomorrow just pass up

straight to seamus at office

there is no class

so can sleep a bit late

pass up both cd

and print

and drawings

in an envelope

before 5

pm

i got a scolding from seamus

anyway he said

i thought i made it very clear last class

we don't have time for individual critique

monday is a replacement class 10-1

i'm going to show some examples

if you got print your work can show me

and yadiyaidya

he also sounded very sick and sleepy

Bon't, i mean Don't

forget to charge your camera batteries for tomolo g1 ppl

also a reminder

group1 got no marker rendering

but still come to class same place same time

to discuss photography model shoot on monday

lydia was generous enough to makeupartist for us

and also help decide theme and stuff like that

hey, we plan to join too

i asked mr tan if group1 can go with group2

he said he'll get back to me when the company calls back

we are visiting......

VisionAnimationStudio...why? because more people can go....what other reason? because they do 3d too other than 2d. The date was to be on 17/04/09 or in case they couldnt let us in then it'll be at 20/04/09

you can visit their website on http://www.visionanimation.net/
check out their show reel too......http://visionanimation.net/about.htm

*p.s. this message is for group2 only

some announcement

concerning group1 photography

mr mat has this idea that the whole

class put their photography photo

files into one dvd

whoever agrees bring their files tomolo

museum ticketz

anyone who hasn't given yet

give on monday

preferably before class

g1 no class

the colour photos pass up next monday

it would be preferable to go in the morning

those who take ktm meet at station at 9

then meet those who self drive at museum

at 930 or 10 depending on how long train ride

if confirm go in the morning then tell others

who don't read this blog

and a reminder when we get to the museum

we buy our own tickets, collect attendance,

and after done give tickets to respective

monitors, happy museuming

last minuet stuff

well....someone told me that the museum was not open on monday BUT i called and confirm that they are OPEN so we'll be going on monday, if anyone of you wanna go by your own time, go ahead just remember to keep your tickets and write your name on it.

And i heard that G1 doenst have class on monday...can anyone confirm on that? If so, we can go in the morning and meet at the station at 9a.m...then after that come back early or go kl....which ever way you like.....XP

Oh..we'll be going alone coz AD ppl went today

*p.s. For those who are taking the KTM, we'll only meet at the station on 9.am. IF G1 doesnt have class otherwise 1.40p.m

Hope you guys are clear on this.....

art museum

we're going on the 2nd of march wif the AD ppl.....we'll be going after G1's class ends. As for transportation, you can either drive or take the KTM from subang parade and get off at the kuala lumpur KTM station *(1 stop after the KL Sentral station) the station is about 1 minute walk away from the museum.

For those that wants to use the KTM, we can meet at the station at 1.40pm and go in a group.

david called

he as an alternative if interested

we can book a van + 2 cars willing to drive

it's rm500 for 1 van so he said maybe

each person rm49/50

also subsidize rm100 for the 2 cars each

tell me what you want 2molo class

|: (

well, i called david and here's a clarification for group 1

apparently i was wrong, he wants us all to go pudu

group 2 got charted bus cos they share with IL ppl

so what he said for us is that b4 745 everyone at pudu

get a ride from those who can spare a ride or something

so yea, group 1 start saving go buy a bicycle

real reel

Remember wat jason say about a show reel? Well here's the schedule. It'll be at AVH....
