idt there's anything to polish it's a super cute oneshot

I learnt a lot in these few days about framing, sound effects, exaggeration etc. With the time constraints, my group wasn't able to add sound effects but I think the overall animation turned out well. I have also learnt ways for myself to improve, in terms of further exaggeration, the camera angles and how to work more efficiently. I also really enjoyed working with my group mate and coming up with ways to improve our outcome. I look forward to applying the knowledge and skills I have picked up in ILEAP.

My group have some challenges in the storyboard as we had to make it more attractive to the target audience.

I normally don’t use Ai to generate videos but after this I-leap , I was able to know how to generate video with Ai by different platforms and which platform would work the best .

2) what was challenging was definitely trying to get the right angle shots for our storyboard. We had to retry plenty of times for the first scene.

3) I stepped out of my comfort zone when I had to join my group when I first didn't know any of them. This allowed me to create more friends

4) the feedback I received was to have more substance, elements to make the theme of the film more obvious. This allowed me and my team to explore more angles, cinematic shots, to create a better, more engaging film.

5) ileaps has shown me what the art world has more than just fine art and drawing. Now I want to explore more of different medias

Really great sharing some of my knowledge with you guys, i enjoyed the 4 days with all of you.

I hope you guys did learn one thing or two, I apologise if theres any shortcomings. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication these past days.

You guys are doing well, so keep on going and grow to be successful in your own ways! All the best for your future endeavours and take care 💜

The main challenge I had throughout the course days was communication as my group was filled with shy and introverted people. But the more we discussed and initiated small talks, the better our teamwork became.

2) My P.Q.P is for the Game Design SHOW & TELL group. I really enjoyed your final product -- your artstyles are soo cute and the overall idea was genius! I'd love to know your inspiration. However, your presentation can be improved by your order of each section.

one challenge i faced was having to make use of minimal materials to create the design and product

i had to push out of my confort zone by getting to know my group members and taking the initiative to ask for their names and schools

I-LEAP influenced me to understand better about product design and why product design is essential to meet the needs of certain people, as well as inclusivity

2) A challenge which I faced was actually feeling interested in the process as I did not find myself so into the process of film making.

3) I stepped out of my comfort zone by talking to people from different schools as usually I would not speak to people I do not know that well.

4) feedback I receive was to be maybe be a bit more contributing as I did not seem as interested in the whole subject of film making.

5) I feel that I-leap has helped me to realise that there are many ways I can improve in many things such as my drawing skills and my interaction with others. I feel like it has given me a wider range In artistic talents as well.

there were many challengers i faced such as trying to have a clear motive, message, and call to action and the creation of the digital ad. however with the help of my peers and my mentor head, i managed to overcome these obstacles and create the video.

2) I faced challenges like communicating with new people, sharing our opinions and creating a work together however we solved them by talking to one another more such by getting to know each other and start sharing our ideas to create an app

3) I pushed myself by expressing my opinions more and talking more in my group to create a better app

4) some feedback like adding necessary information in our app and making the app look more interesting but not too much

5) through this Ileap journey, I understand the learning of art and may plan to pursue such art forms in the future

overall, it was a fun experience thank you!!😛

-I pushed myself out of my comfort zone to be open to new opportunities and trying not to feel too anxious when I have to showcase.

-I-leap has shown me and given me a much more close and hands on understanding and experience with the film art form and allowed me to find out on a more personal exploration on the art form.

The biggest challenge i had during this was drawing.

I didn’t push myself out of my comfort zone

We weren’t engaging enough during our presentation

A challenge my group faced was time limitations in which I decided to go home and 3d model and print props for our team due to the time constraints. I went out of my comfort zone by modelling within 45min and printing in 5h compared to my usual time

feedback like needing more frames in the stop motion animation is something i took note of

i also realised it is much easier to start a project if i dont think about it too much

this program has shown me how to do animation much better and more efficiently

there were many challengers i faced such as trying to have a clear motive, message, and call to action and the creation of the digital ad. However, with the help and support of my peers and mentor head i was able to overcome these obstacles and create the video.

this experience was rlly fun i def enjoyed it 🫰🤪

(creating a persona), one question I have is how to get more ideas for products, if many of them already exist? I’m very grateful for my group mates as well, working together with me to come up with our products.

ileap was interesting, as in it was quite fun when you get the end product n finally get to relax and enjoy and have fun. the hard part was really the making of the product n the countless hours spent having my spine bent doing work

2 I had a lot of gaps in my game and my group didnt have any ideas to fill in the gaps

3 I volunteered a lot and did presentations

4 I refined my character design and make my game UI more clear

5 it made me more clear on how to develop my ideas and how to design every aspect of the game and not just one aspect

The most exciting things I learnt were some of the 12 animation principles like anticipation, exaggeration, etc.

I faced challenges in terms of time constraints. In order to overcome it, I learnt to work more efficiently by not being overly obsessed over details or using copy and paste.

I pushed myself out of my comfort zone by drawing and animating things I haven't before. Like animating an explosion - I used other animes as reference.

I received feedback and recommendations - like using impact frames. I learnt that through impact frames, scenes can become more exciting dramatic.

ILEAP helped me realise that my style is quite simple as not many details are incorporated. My future goals are to further grow in terms of my skills - animation, perspective, etc.

Ngee Ann sec

I learnt the different processes when making a animation. Such processes are coming up of a character in the story/animation thus there is a need of character design. I also learnt 3 different types of framing which are, Medium shot, long shot and a close up. These help catch viewers attention. The most important part of a animation is having a hook or a character that makes the audience sympathise with them. This makes the audience evoke feelings through the animation.

I LOVE YOU GUYS AND EVERYONEE!!!IT WAS SO FUN

I also learnt the typical format of intro->Message->call-to-action and how to make things more visually appealing.

It was very frustrating when it came to making storyboards because I'm not very creative. However, this gave me the opportunity to brainstorm and come up with ideas with my group mates, making me more resilient and open-minded. In the end, I'm very happy and feel satisfied about our storyboard and end product!!!

I found it a bit hard to work with my team but eventually my team and I worked it out and eventually produced our work

I leap may have influenced my future process of making artworks

Some challenges faced throughout this experience was that my group and I initially had issues planning the storyboard as the topic of ‘dreamscapes’ was really hard to brainstorm on. In the end, as a group, we managed to seek help from our mentors and more thoroughly think deeper into the topic.

As an artist, I pushed myself out by exploring a different act of art form — filming. Art doesn’t always have to be on a piece of paper, it can be explored through acting and physical actions etc.

I recieved some feedback on how to take interesting shots which can express focus and emotions. This helps to capture the viewers focus point and show the key details. It also helped to improve my photography skills

In general, this helped me to explore different careers and helped me to explore more about the different potential careers related to art. It was really fun and enjoyable :))

At first I thought it was going to be difficult, but throughout the journey, with help from our mentor, the process was smooth and fun.

The activity I enjoyed most was filming, getting to see our ideas come to life was very exciting.

The most challenging part was making the puppet, with the tight schedule, we had to rush our whole process. Storyboard planning, character designing, puppet making and filming. The puppet was especially hard for me because of the metal wires that we had to bend using pliers to make the structure of the doll and sew the socks to make parts of the puppet.

Through the 4 days, we also got to explore another related elective which was 2D Animation. I learnt about the "Squash and stretch" technique to make the animation more "natural" by the 2D Animation mentor, Mr Harry Zhuang. We used FlippaClip to animate a bouncing ball.

Overall, the whole journey was very fun and I learnt a lot. :)

1. Colour scheme was missing so we didn’t know what colours the monsters were.

2. I didn’t. Game design is my comfort zone.

3. No feedback.

4. Shape language influences players/user’s perceptions of characters heavily.

2.A challenge I encountered was a limitation due to our initial idea of a horror game.After we learnt that a lot of other groups did horror,we tried branching out,changing to an action adventure game so that we can branch out for more ideas of phobias and fears.

3.I experimented with various phobias and fears to make character designs and help with the overall aesthetic of the game.

4.We were told that we were very vague with our description,we opted to be more specific and focused on an idea to help with clarity.

5.ILEAP helped me understand the process of game design and helped me understand the approach you need to do game design.This helped me understand my goal of becoming a game designer.

The process of making the animation was really rushed, largely because we needed to make our props and puppet on top of planning, storyboarding, and filming it. We didn’t have a lot of time to make high quality props and our materials were limited. We were only provided paper, cardboard and paint as raw materials. Luckily, we managed to finish filming our animation in time.

2) i was lost at the start as i do not play any game, but as we went through i got a hang of it ot and tried to do my best

3) improve my sketch on anatomy

4) i have understood how things actually work now for example creating a game

We faced difficulty in coming up with an idea and finding a good location to film, as well as creating a unique story.

I appreciate my friends and experiences from NYP and will not forget the things I’ve learnt.

School: Naval Base Secondary School (NBSS)

Day 1 reflection: On day 1, I felt very awkward and unsure due to having to present and introduce myself to others from other schools which was then added even more due to my misconception that 3D animation was digital 3D modelling and not stop motion but soon I got very comfortable with the group and very intrigued by my mentor’s presentation. When story boarding started I was very happy due to my group members being so cooperative and on task. (<3 huge love sending their way )

Day 2: Mr harry was also equally engaging teaching us how to make our 2D animations even more visually appealing. I found it amusing that both twins are in animation and that also led to misconceptions that mr Henry (our mentor) was the one teaching us 2D and he just knew how to teleport and magically change his hair style and outfit. We then moved on to character designing and then presenting what we did (as usual my grp is super diligent and made 4 different designs) then we had to split half our group to do prop making and character making. I was doing prop making while contemplating my life and overall it was very fun spending hours cutting card board and getting my hands sticky with glue.

Day 3: Day 3 was very rushed. We started with another round of prop making and then filming. I helped film with my group for half of the stop motion then I had to stick to supervising every once in a while because I needed to make slides. After I had rehearsals which was very stressing as I felt very under prepared. Then when I went home I edited the stop motion using sound effects and music effects and then I fixed up the slides and did the script with my buddy.

the challenges i faced were being unable to complete certain tasks on tike but i overcame it by completing them on time

the feedback i recieved was to hurry up n draw faster and it helped me improve by completing whatever i needed to complete on time

i pushed myself oit of my comfort zone by trying things i never tried before

2.)Some challenges i faced was time management and communication.My team and i overcame this by improvising when we faced challenges and developed better communication skills to get our ideas across better.

3.)At first it was difficult for me to communicate my ideas to my teammates as its something im not used to doing but over time i got to know my teammates better and was eventually able to contribute to my groups discussion.

4.)Some feedback i received was how to fully utilize the different features of my building to better improve the users experience.

5.)ILEAP has helped me better understand the career path of artitechture.
