It was great to have some comments from my classmates and Dr Nelson regarding my digital story. The sharing that Dr Towndrow had with Siti, which I "tuned in" to was helpful as well. At the end of the day, I came home and made some changes according to those comments. Some of the changes I made include change in font type as suggested by Dr Nelson, slowing down some of the scenes as suggested by Joshua, making the background music softer at some parts as suggested by Eula, and use only meaningful transitions as suggested Dr Towndrow.
Thank you so much, professors and friends :)
I think I have my final product and am now gearing up to the presentation next week. But I must say that it is so hard to concentrate with all the deadlines and a pending quiz creeping up on me. I am telling myself to stay focused and hang in there. I remember that my PE teacher used to say to me that the last two rounds of the 2.4km run is really all in the mind. I think it is the same here. It is all in the mind.
All the best to you too, my friends!

Chiayen, I enjoyed your DST very much. The use of no audio to audio to visual and audio (of the little boy) was fantastic! Although I am not a parent, I could feel the deep meaning and tug at my heart. Really a nice job! All the best in your course!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much Rachael:) I thought you did a great job too - putting the long history into a 2-minute DS, and one that the kids can "digest". And the choices you made were conscious decisions, which I think is a key learning that we all take away from this module yeah? Kudos to you and hope to be in the same class next sem :)
ReplyDeleteHi hi!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much for your very positive comments, Chia Yen! I really hope the girls comprehend my DST and 'take away' the essential bits of it :)
I had a very good time in the DL course and it was definitely due to my coursemates and the profs, of course! Am sure our paths will cross again :) (in or out of campus!!!)
