MULTIMEDIA DESIGN: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

MULTIMEDIA DESIGN: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

WHAT IS MULTIMEDIA ?

Multimedia is content that uses a combination of different content forms such as text, audio, images, animation, videos and interactive content. Multimedia is contrast with media that use only rudimentary computer displays such as text only or traditional forms of printed or hand-produced materials.

Multimedia can be recorded and played, displayed, dynamics, interacted with or accessed by information content processing devices, but also can part of live performance. Multimedia devices are electronic media devices used to store and experience multimedia content. Multimedia is distinguished from mixed media in fine art by including audio, for example, it has broader scope. The term "rich media" is synonymous for interactive multimedia.

Multimedia presentation may be viewed by a person on stage, projected, transmitted, or played locally with media player. A broadcast may be a lived or recorded multimedia presentation. Broadcasts and recording can be either analog or digital electronic media technology.

Multimedia games and simulations may be used in physical environment with special effects, with multiple users in multiple users in an online networks, or locally with an offline computer, game system or simulator.

MULTIMEDIA DESIGN: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY

OBJECTIVE

The objectives of this module is:

1. Explore and articulate the implications of software innovations to the aesthetics of design.

2. Identify mainstream and alternate technologies, and articulate the impact of new technologies on a design practise, cultures, media, content and usage.

3. Develop a multimedia design project that intergrates conceptual development, technology and stylistic decision making, and resolve to a professional level.

4. Present a coherent final designed outcome with demonstrable development of processes, technical experimentation and critical of decision-making.

LEARNING OUTCOMES

LEARNING OUTCOMES: MULTIMEDIA DESIGN: ADVANCED TECHNOLOGY


LOC 1: KNOWLEDGE

In first learning outcomes, I need to reflect critically upon ones own and utilize self-editing skills within the design process that I learn in this module.

LOC 2: THNKING SKILLS

In here, I need to demonstrate critical, evaluative and making skills using a number of specialist media and processes.

LOC 3 and LOC 4: SUBJECT-BASED PRATICAL SKILLS

I need to demonstrate the use of the methodologies and project management skills within the design project in this module. I also need to work on screen and paper-based formats which synergy and visual coherence. This is where I need to show my sketches and work using the software.

LOC 5: SKILLS FOR LIFE AND WORK

I need to constructs and implement a realistic timetable of research. In here I need to construct on my timetable for this module on how I'm going to utilize my seven week for  this module.

RESEARCH OF MASAK LEMAK CILI API

Masak Lemak Cili Api is a Malaysian traditional that famous by it spicy taste and the use in coconut milk and tumeric powder. It is famous in Negeri Sembilan and also around people that favours spicy food. Masak Lemak Cili Api also has a variety in cooking, mostly they are using chicken, vegetable and fish. From this I learn that mostly people in peninsular Malaysia favouring this dishes.

This dish is consists of coconut milk, tumeric powders, bird's eye chilli (cili api), lemon grass and tumeric leaves. The original recipes doesn't use garlic and red onion but nowadays people alter the recipe according to the their own taste.

From this research also, I found that the Masak Lemak Cili Api doesn't has the instant paste or any instant product.

GROUP DESIGN PROJECT

EXHIBITION DAY

The exhibition day is 20th May 2016 at Vertical Studio B, the date should be on 18th May 2016 and the venue is at AAVA Gallery near the Library but because of some technical problem and this is change into Studio B.

In here, the set up is not look as we plan because of the last minute change but we try to create the place as we decided to do as what plan first. We plan our exhibition with minimum cost and ready to present our artwork.

Using the black flexible PVC fence to hang our artwork, all five of us is there but Samira is not because on the day we decide to buy the material, we ask her and said she doesn't want to that why she didn't hang it together on the fence.

We hang the plastic fence on the the ceiling using fishing line and stapler gun it on the wood platform to stabilize it. Then we glue the flexible wire on our artwork using hot glue gun then we bend the wire so that we hang the ortwork on the fence.

Here is the picture on the set up day.

GROUP DESIGN PROJECTS

COMMITTEE MEMBERS

FIRST COMMITTEE MEMBERS

Leader: Satish
Vice Leader and Treasury: Siti Aisyah
Public Relations: Jeffry
Logistic: Hatmi
Exhibitions: Alexis
Creative Director: Samira

Then it changes because of some problem,

SECOND COMMITTEE MEMBER

Leader: Alexis Lyndy
Creative Team: Leader: Samira Jamali
                                     : Jeffry Jilan
                                     : Siti Aisyah
Exhibition and Set up: Alexis
                                   : Mohd. Hatmi
                                   : Satish
Proposal: Satish

Committee ( commission) is a body of one or more person that is subordinate to a deliberative assembly. When doing the project, we also has meeting and this will be handle by Aisyah as a secretary. From this we learn how to organize our work and what role we do to. First my role is as a exhibition member, my role is to find place for set up and where we going to do for the exhibition.

Image 1: The AAVA Gallery that we choose as the first choice to exhibit.

Image 2: Tomie as my co-partner is measuring the gallery.

Image 3: Balai Seni Lukis as my reference for the exhibition set up.

As my role change into leader, I need to lead my group and have meeting with them and also asking about their opinion how they want they space is, what material we should use in the exhibition. There are so many thing that I need to handle but with the help of my group and also the role that we hold it made it move systematically.

MANAGING DESIGN

RESEARCH

The name henna also refers to the dye prepared from the plant and the art of temporary body art (staining) based on those dyes (see also mendhi). Henna has been used since antiquity to dye skin, hair and fingernails, as well as fabrics including silk, wood and leather. The henna ink is produced by its leaves. Some people use the crush henna leaves and wraps it around their finger and waiting for the henna leaves to left the stain. Some peoples dried the henna leaves and process it so it become powdery and sometimes they mix it with lemon juice or tea, to get different color, usually they do this to dye hair. Henna also come in small pen kit that contain already processed henna ink and can be use instantly.
From this research, I also found about instant henna that contain harmful toxic that can left rashes and blisters.
