6.11.2024 (Week 7) Vanessa Kei Kurniadi / 0360525 Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media Motion Graphics and Compositing - Week 7 INSTRUCTIONS Week 7 In this week's online class, Mr Fauzi gave us a briefing on Project 2 which is a channel bumper. fig 1.1 Project 2 Briefing Basically, we will need to make a short video that introduces or promotes a channel (fictional or existing). We are to create a moldboard and make a short video that conveys their concept or idea combined with a visually compelling video and catchy music. There are no demo videos given for this exercise, but we are given some previous great works that were done by our seniors as references.

30.10.2024 (Week 6) Vanessa Kei Kurniadi / 0360525 Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media Motion Graphics and Compositing - Week 6 INSTRUCTIONS Week 6 This week, the class is only used for consultation purposes, so I'm gonna use this week to finish Project 1 Part 2 and do the extra assignments for extra marks because it is due this week, as well as use the chance to show my progress to Mr Fauzi later. For Part 2 of the project, Mr Fauzi told me that all I needed to do it to add some music to the final output of the remix, so I looked through some energetic songs that I think are suitable for the video, and I found music called  Upbeat Vlog and Event Music by Infraction . fig 1.1  Upbeat Vlog and Event Music by Infraction I took the starting part of the music and put it into my video using Premiere Pro. Since the song will end a bit abruptly, I went ahead and sped up the song just a tiny bit so it fits the 16-second video properly. I also lowered the volume because it is kinda

23.10.2024 (Week 5) Vanessa Kei Kurniadi / 0360525 Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media Motion Graphics and Compositing - Week 5 INSTRUCTION Week 5 In the fifth week, I am finishing part 2 of the project before the class time so I can ask Mr Fauzi for another feedback if there is anything that I need to change. The second part of the project is to create a simple remix using the 8 available principles. Mr Fauzi also demonstrated the task and recorded it so we can review it for future reference. fig 1.1 Demo for Project 1 Part 2 In this task, we can use our creativity and combine the different principles into an interesting remix video. We are allowed to use the principles multiple times as needed and put them into a 16-second duration motion graphic video however we like. When I started working on the project, there wasn't really any solid plan for what I was going to do. All I did was just go along with whatever I had in mind at that moment and try to apply it to the remix.

16.10.2024 (Week 4) Vanessa Kei Kurniadi / 0360525 Bachelor of Design (Hons) in Creative Media Motion Graphics and Compositing - Week 4 INSTRUCTION Week 4 This week I am finishing all of my own versions of the 4 principles. I'm planning to finish it before class time so I can ask for feedback if there is anything that I need to change. 1. Symmetry For "symmetry", I looked at a lot of references on Pinterest on what shape and motion I should go with. fig 1.1 Symmetry motion graphic reference on Pinterest There isn't particularly any reference that I want to specifically follow, but after scrolling for a long time to the point I started zoning out and making my own wild shapes and motions (even though there is a fair chance I won't be able to execute it due to my lack of After Effects skill), I finally decided to work with square shapes. I made a couple squares and tried to place them at the centre (I took some time to snap them to the centre, and for s

Mr Fauzi provided us with 8 principles: movement, Hierarchy, Balance, Direction, Symmetry, Focus, Scale, and Rhythm. Our job is to remake the 4 principles on the bottom row into our own version of the version. We can make our changes at the given separate composition for each principle, and then it will automatically update the main display of the principles. fig 1.1 Screenshots from the demo video. left: individual composition for the principle, right: the main display of the principles Studying the Principles Before I started on the project, I decide
