Final Project Preproduction

I shall just roughly go through the 2 video ideas that we had presented in class my thoughts about it.

video 1 - NUS advertisement: Why NUS? Because its time WELL SPENT?
The focus of our NUS advertisement would be to showcase different aspects of NUS and to let them realise that their experince in NUS would be fruitful and enriching. This is done so through a few sections of the advertisement.

Education
A wide diversity of disciplines to choose from (11 faculties in total)

Flexibility
The numerous modules to choose from, timetable builder

Culture
Networking with people around the world. Wide selection of food choices from different nationalities.

Teamwork
Teamwork is all around NUS, in sports, projects, discussions etc

My Thoughts
After the critique session in this week's lecture, I felt that we may have to rethink our idea. We were advised by Dr Julian to consider its originality because there were groups from previous batches who did similar stuff. Flexibility needs to be researched upon because it may differ from different faculties or even different universities. Lets hope that mental spark would hit my head and some idea will pop out by this weekend then!

Video 2 - CNM Advertisement: I Was From CNM
This video would be about the overall experience studying in CNM through the perspective of the narrator, who was a graduate from CNM. The style of the advertisement is in a form of a journal.

Lecturers
The first few shots will contain mini clips of lecturers on the left side of the journal, the right side will contain thoughts penned down by the grad.

Friends
Mini clip will be placed in the center, with thoughts penned below it. It will be about the friendships forged through her course of study

MediaHub
Similar format to friends, his part showcases the Singapore being a media hub and how CNM aligns itself with this.

What have I learnt?
The following few parts consist of what she has learnt, different theories, creation, communication skills etc.

The advertisement ends when she writes, "this is why I've got a job that I've always wanted", she closes the book, the screen fades to black with the CNM logo appearing.

My thoughts
This idea is rather original, however my only concern is that there is definitely some form of technical skill involved, like whether to animate handwriting for the journal editing and all
