For the editing process, I followed the rough outline for our last documentary projects just to roughly get the idea of what to talk about for my editing process. During my editing, I mainly had problems with lag, CapCut bugging, and clip issues such as not very good takes or lack of clips. However, I made it work with what I can and I like the end result of our music video.

(Mai) As her teammate, I helped provide insights and feedbacks to help her made improvements. Additionally, I also came with her to ask for feedback from Mr. Nick, taking note of the improvements he suggests us to make.

Digipak: Research & Development

For the research aspect it was fairly hard to find albums that fit our desired branding and mise en scene but after going through a bunch of inspiration from websites such as rolling stones and discogs I found some albums that we could get inspiration from. A highlight from the researching process was going through my vinyl collections with my team and findings one thats struck out to us. 

As for development I ran into a few struggles firstly the location it was on my rooftop so there was an inherent risk as there was no fencing but we tried to keep to the middle as to not fall. There was alot of sharp and rusty metal which meant that shoes were a must. Then it was the weather as we used chalk to write on the ground the rain would've erased and washed it all away so we had to do things fast and when the weather was good. As well I had a helping hand as I told my cousin Aksyara to help sketch, trace and draw the artwork and that was really helpful as for the front cover one person had to laydown to be traced. In the end, thankfully we got a few hours on a few days without rain even though bali is going through a bit of a rainy season right now and that was all we need to finish it.

Social Media: Research & Development

This is my team's research and development on social media. All presentations/documents were made by me (Mai) and written in third person POV.

Since I was in charge of both research and development, it did feel like a lot of workload to me. But regardless, I still had fun making it. The only problem I faced was time management, as making two separate presentations on research and development took a lot of time. I had to stay behind at school in the ICT lab to work on a better computer, which made me feel more fatigue than usual. However, because I decided to do most of my work at school, I spend my time at home to relax and rest. Although the process was very tiresome, I'm proud of my time management skills and balancing between work and rest this time. 

Branding Research

Here is my group's branding research presentation made by Sagara on Canva. The reflection of this blogpost was copied off of my teammate (Sagara) and I added a few things to it. 

Branding by Sagara

Reflection๋࣭⭑𖥔‧₊˚  ⊹

I was in charge of making the branding research although I was given occasional help by my group members. Some of the biggest issues I had were struggling with describing and wording out things and make things make sense, I'd assume this is because I haven't done something like this in quite a while and because of the difficulties I faced I ended up procrastinating and delaying the task and doing it bit by bit. There wasn't really anything specific I did to fix my issues, I did look through the examples Mr. Nick gave us to give me some sort of idea regarding how this should be written, but aside from that I just forced myself to do and finish it. 

(Mai) As his teammate, I helped him come up with ideas whenever he needed input or had any questions to ask. 

Screen Test

Here is my blog post on our feedback form made by myself (Mai). 

I think that gathering feedback is important because it helps us improve and allows us to come up with new ideas. Other people might see mistakes or weak points that we do not see, hence another pair of eyes will help us perfect our MV. Additionally, gathering feedback can give us different perspectives and better ways to do things, allowing us to upgrade the quality of our final result. 

Questions⋆｡°✩

 

Feedback✧˚ ༘ ⋆｡˚

Most of these answers don't have complaints about our MV so far. Remembering that our genre leans more to the niche side (the people we asked don't listen to our genre of choice that much), this might explain why we don't have specific and detailed answers about which parts could be disappointing. 

However, one of the answers did point out an honest mistake of ours due to the lack of preparation. Since our original vocalist wasn't able to attend, we had to find a substitute in just a matter of minutes. We didn't have enough time to prepare and brief our substitute, hence he came underprepared. If we have enough time after getting most of our things done, we might consider reshooting the band scene with better preparation and planning. 

Classwork: Persona + Brand

Here is a scan of our mind map made by me (Mai) with the help of Gusde and Sagara for answering the guiding questions. 

I think this mind map is quite helpful because it helped us understand our concept and motive on a deeper level, as the questions forced us to think harder to be able to put our visions clearly into words. The questions being asked were so detailed that we were able to write down most of our expectations and goals into a single mind map. Additionally, this mind map will also keep us on track, making sure that we don't stray away from our original concept and ideas. 

Reflection₊˚ʚ₊˚✧ ﾟ. 

As an art student, making this mind map was so much fun. It allowed me to be creative with the design and gave me freedom to doodle any kind of illustrations that might help our group visualize our imaginations/ideas better. The only problem I faced was that making the mind map without the other group members were a little difficult. I had to make sure that we agreed on the same answers for each guiding questions, and it was hard to do that when we weren't face to face. Most of us would be offline/too busy to respond to messages, hence I prefer waiting until everyone gathers together. This made me take longer than expected to finish the mind map, so it was a problem with time. Overall, I still liked how our mind map turned out, and hopefully I'll get to include more things in the future whenever we come up with new and fresh ideas.
