well. fypj started. -alien rage emote- for the uninformed and clueless, in my final year at DMD, there is a Final Year Project [hence, fypj] that is neccessary to complete in order to graduate, among other things like bungee jumping from the 5th floor. it involves being in a team [whether you're a happy drone worker or unceremoniously shoved in] and working together for 3 months to create a short [keyword: SHORT, NOT BLOCKBUSTER] animation film, which will also be showcased at the graduate show, Fusion, at the end of the school year. hence, the need to make sure that you better do a damn good job or else you won't get a job, you won't get a house, you won't get married and you'll end up rotting in the streets. it also means that for the next 3 months, i will not have much of a life. not that i already had one to begin with, but.. you know. with a 9-6 schedule and the high chances of OT about 60% of the time, it's like.. i don't know, having a taste of what our worklife will be in the near future? not that i'm not enjoying it or what, i'd much rather be doing those pre-production concepts like character designs and environments and all than actually animating/rigging/modeling. oh the horror. it's been 2 weeks since fypj [un]officially started [long story, no wait not that long but i'm lazy to describe it haha], and i'd say we're progressing, road's a little bumpy but i think the wheels won't puncture or what. i'm actually pretty shaken up though, i don't think i was prepared for the amount of responsibility, not just for myself, but for general art direction of the film. instead of usually just doing what i'm assigned with my own input mixed in, to have people actually asking me what to do or where to go from here, is extremely scary. everyone has different views of what the final product will look like, after all, and as much as i try to put everyone's visualization together [or at least, i think i try], i'm so afraid that things will end up horribly wrong and the whole thing will just look.. ghastly. D8 so far, after these 2 weeks, i think some of the decisions i made have come to kaput. stuff that i suggested to the others to do, was in the end a waste of time, because i had taken the wrong approach to it, and it feels like i've wasted their 14 days. argh i suck at managing. but oh well, it's my first time and things could have been worse i guess. communication is important! that i know now. well maybe i knew that before, but i didn't know how to actually.. communicate effectively. hmm. i'll try again if i get the chance, and maybe the next time i'll be more.. precise? hmm. hopefully, the weekend will be able to make up for it, and come Monday there won't be any tornadoes. oh well. the best sushi in Singapore. hee. |

Just your average human specimen wanting to be something more. Also has an absurd fondness for potatoes and shoes, among other things.
