this time we did the job quit fast
...
What we concern of about the photo is...
the angle of the photo...the mood of that photo will brings out...
and so on...
(cinematic concept)
I found that it is quit hard to propose the cinematic feel...
as it is a lot thing to consider of...
so...
a lot of experimenting will going on through...
...
we had taken a lot a lot of angle of the trashcan
and also the background
to do the further experimentation...
and then move to to our task
....

Some of the photo...

( Where am I belongs to?)

(The only one who concern of me)

(PAIN!)

(Who going to carry my up?)

....

Beside that

such as city (busy traffic)
puduraya (noisy, busy, people talking, shout)
for further enhance on our mood

Flow Chart

After so many times discussion with my group member and lecture
finally we are finalize our thing
such as...
concept, idea, mood...
and we comes out with our flow chart
As for this time,
we had spent a lot time in discussing the flow chart...
I realize that its very hard to produce a flow chart
A lot of thing we need to consider
(functional button)
(user friendly linking)
(how to create the overall mood )
(how to link to bring out the message the best and so on)
Its all a very important element to create a website
And...
Because Edvince is more experience in this,
this time he had share a lot of his thought for us
Thanks to him
Hahaha...
Ok la, after gao dim the flow chart
we can start to convert our idea into the screen...
Jia you!!

Movie

Mr Sean recommend few meaningful movie for us...
i feel that,
these movie is like a bomb for us
previously, i never think that i will watch this type of movie
because i feel that i will never understand it
but really
as what my leader Edvince said
as our level now
(for me i think this mean at least i got a bit graphic design background)
we can experience different feel through the movie
understand the in dept meaning of the movie
not just only see the picture and feel boring

yea...

this thing we can make it as a reference for the project
we see thing not just see base on the surface
think deeper and deeper
look through the thing from different point of view
maybe you can have different experience on that same thing

Yea...it is...
As I am not to that high level yet...(haha)
I will try to see more this type of movie
try to think more...
try to get out of the box...
I will try...
I am learning...
(haha)

Make the idea more solid...

After yesterday tutorial with Mr Sean
We more understand and more clear on what to do on our project

Yea...so
to make sure we are not lost by the way...
We start to refresh back start from the beginning...
Refer to the brief:
(base on my understanding)

-reread & relearn the city
(means understanding of KL)
(base on the choose item)

-looking at small differences in a group of similar objects
(Our item: Trashcan)
(similar^differences among them)

-create a field guide

What we are doing now...
-define an object
(we choose trashcan)
(create an overall mood for the trashcan...exp:sorrow)
(think what is the similarities and differences of the trashcan)

We are more clear on the direction after we done refresh back
trashcan...
so now...we decided
we will more focus on
"what trashcan see and what trashcan feel..."
as for we will go base on the trashcan point of view...
"what a dustbin can see in KL??"
"what is trashcan's feeling?"
"Is it sad? lonely? exciting? happy?..."

We will develop further more...
more post on the development come after this...
bye for now~~~

Some of the traffic light are together with the Road Sign

People have to stop and wait for the light change to cross over the road.

Dustbin:
I cant understand
Its a dustbin there

Cant they see the dustbin there?
Cant they aim properly and throw to the dustbin?

Sigh~~
