Day 07

Our group assembled at 12 pm to do a finalization of our presentation. We updated new content. I separated the materials from the slide so that it's much easier and faster to show Mr Ronald the materials we are using. I will present 3 slides, Nafisah 4 slides, Andreas 4 slides, honey 2 slides and Gary 2 slides respectively. It is still fair as content to be presented is the same despite in the difference in number of slides.
Hanis' group was the first to present. I did not quite get the idea. I guess Mr Ronald didn't quite get it too as we saw Sholleh trying really hard to explain. However i have to agree with Mr Ronald that we shouldn't make everyone think that coming to MOI is a everybody-if-you-want-then-can thing.
We were up next. Mr Ronald was worried that ours would be too cheesy. We assured him our idea will be quite formal and humour will be restricted to just spicing up the idea a little, and not the main selling point.
Next was Jakes group. Personally i find him quite a threatening competitor after animation fundamentals. No hard feelings, he really has some good stuff and talent.
However we had to wait for some people to return from washroom. Finally the presentation started. They have 2 ideas, a talk show(Ellen DeGeneres show style) and a documentary(Borat show style). A video clip was shown on Ellen DeGeneres to give us an idea of what they meant by talking about serious stuff in a hilarious way. One thing Mr Ronald was worried about is the excessive or unnecessary use of humour.
Most of us thought that they should go along with the talk show as they seemed more well prepared.
Sarah's group would be a spy and crime style dramatization. It is about a apy sent to spy on tp students doing their work.
Mr Ronald was talking about going beyond expectations and stretching the limits when he got irritated by the noise that has been going on from a certain corner and handphone stuff from the same corner and decided to end the class. We quickly asked him questions to clarify things and make him stay.
He told us that if lecturers had different opinions we should collect evidence and consult them. After an official dismissal, our group approached him again to ask about showing higher level work. He answered our queries and left.
We then briefly discussed on whose works to choose from. We estimated that there might be enough time to include senior's works. However completion of our own will be given priority.
