Matthew.
I've learn quite a few stuff after this final project.
My group mates are good. Get to know most of their areas of strength. As for me, i found out, audio is my weakness, i spend most of my time finding for the right songs to inside in our video.
As for my better points will be dealing with 2d flash animation.
Working with my teammates is something new to me. It's been cool working with them. :D
But still... it was a very stressful period of my life.
KMJCO FOR THE WIN MANZ!

James's Last blog for KMJCO
Finally everything comes to an end.
its been two months we have been going thru insufficient sleeps and waking up early with the word "P1" in our mind.
however, P1 have really helped us alot in our attitude and characters.
maybe i would like to share about my team first.
when Kaya, Matthew and i grouped together, i felt the potential within our team
as three of us have the same target of entering animation specialisation.
although we might have the same target, but we have not worked together.
so slowly, we have to develop teamwork within us and i would say it is not easy.
As we come from different background, we all have different ideas and concept.
it might sound good but because of different ideas, we might have some small misunderstanding.
this is what i felt about it so i wanted to share to everyone who view this blog.
People around us said our team is strong and a good combination of people,
i personally quite agreed with it. Matthew and I graduated from ITE but different course.
every single person in the group share their skills and willing to teach each other.
i'm pleased with both of them in my group. maybe i did complain about my group to anyone who viewing now,
but i really want to say "thank you" to both of them.
We have gone through tonnes of problem in our group such as technically, idea, attitude and maybe other areas that i did not realised.
And now, i would like to thanks and apologise to Kaya firstly.
As we have not co-operated in any projects before, i have no idea how to work with him as
we both have different ideas and concept. As i personally think that Kaya prefer anime style animation and i prefer much of a American's style animation (6Teens, ruby gloom, etc). But working with him really make feel very happy as Kaya really do things efficiently and he willing to take in ideas and accept ideas being reject. Being a demanding person, i tend to speak more vulgarly and in an aggressive tone. But before we even start on the our first 3rd age project, i have spoke out my characteristic to allow them to understand and overcome my rowdy attitude. At the beginning of P1, i was kind of strangling between him and myself as we both have different ideas and i try to explain why i reject and accept idea. i really appreciate his help even till now. i saw potential of visual effects in Kaya, but it seems to be much of a video effects than animation. But still, follow his passion, i always tell people around me or stoners production team that Kaya is good at exploring stuff as he is a new learner.
And now, nevertheless, to MR Matthew charles!
when i first know i will be in the same team as Matthew, i was like "HOLY ****" and people from stoners production (which is our class) was like "GBU". i admit previously Matt and I have some personal dispute or unhappiness incident between both of us. But really, i feel extremely happy to work with him. He voiced out during brainstorming and so. he really put in alot of effort in it. or i would say everyone put in effort but i felt i didnt put in enough effort into it. Matthew really endure my attitude and temper to the extend that i personally also realised i was being rude to him and kaya. but i can say matthew really work very hard this time in p1 and i enjoy working with him. both of us graduated from ITE but we learnt different things, we share our skills to one another. i would say if there's a chance to work with him, i dont mind.
as for me, i would pick out my bad points than sharing my good points of me.
i felt i didnt put in much effort compare to my work in ITE. i think i can do better. and also my temper will never easily control. I keep telling myself there is no real leader in a team and everyone in a team is a leader, but i felt i'm standing in a leader position and i have to guide people in the team. not being proud or what, but i felt that i'm always standing in that position. but luckily, i would proudly say that i have 2 best follower, KAYA AND MATTHEW. i keep telling myself to feel stress once the P1 started so i can get myself to the working mood, but the stress only arrive 2weeks before the submission. but everything seems well planned althou in between there is some changes.
now i'm strangling between animation and video, i have interest in both. who can help me? i'm not going to vote IDK for streaming for sure.
well, i would say all video screened in LT 25 was great! i wouldnt give any bad comment on it because there is a reason why they add this or that in their video. but somehow, i personally spotted a few video that odviously need improvement but i would keep it to myself so i will repeat the same thing.
the lunch was great and enjoyable where all MOI 2008 gather together. people from other course also said that MOI IS FUN!
Finally, its holiday, i just don't know why i wanted to cry when i finally ended everything in this block.
KMJCO, never think that our work is bad. because i really see you guys put in effort in it. and i really think that its fantastic but maybe some part need to amend.
Hope to work with you guys in further and although i know it sound mushy or wrong but i want to say
I LOVE YOU GUYS!

Well..
End of our P1 eh?
came faster than we expected though.
How should i put it?
Well i would say...
This P1 was a whole new experience for us.
espically my group...
as...what we done was some what in a different genre from other groups.
It was fun working with the other 2 groups members though.
as...i have learnt alot of new things from them.
see alot of things that, well year ones wuldn't see.
I hope that, this would go on actually.
A whole new level of bonding with people.
interaction,
teamwork,
understanding
and also communication.
It's kind of sad though,
i would like to express that
the final was not very well done.
And in the coming holidays,
i would like to try experiment and hopefully come up with some thing
worth while for year one's memories.

Today suxs.
We were just left with rendering. Wasted most of our time rendering our final project.
An error always appear after 95%. The time to render the file is not short even.
We thought it was some bug or something we click, so we re-rendered a few times.
(includes restarting premier pro)
All the Premier pro links are in the desktop. We tried using other coms.
Had to find and relink all our videos.
We had no choice by to use my laptop to render. (much slower then desktop)
Too much time is wasted.
School computers have problem rendering, pls do something. thanks
