finall assignment!!

All good things come to an end right!!! this is my final post for creative studies..it has been an increadible and exciting journey..I have been working on the last and final assignment with my group members. for this final assignment we had to work with the topic "creativity in the context of MMU". This is a very broad topic, and we had to come up with a less broad topic using this theme. My group members were Liz, Ikah, Rehan and the only boy in our group, Naz. 

Here u can see only the girls, but we are very glad that there was at least one boy to balance out things ..lol.
Our first consultation was with Mr.Halim, we were discussing about our first plan by making the project about creativity as the different sides of media innovation, which meant that we were planning to talk creativity in the side of media innovation, because media innovation is one of the major under management's faculty but it is pretty different than any other management's major. Well, we failed to do so..because we didnt get much suport from Mr.Halim nor Mr.Radzi. And we were very much confused as to what to do, so when we met at the next meeting we started brain storming for a new idea. we came up with ideas like ;

• A different side of media innovation
• Media innovation in Management
• Creativity in Fom
• Creative context between multimedia and IT
• Engineers, creative or just scientists
• creativity and culture in MMU

And we chose the last topic, Culture and creativity in MMU, because here in this university there is a diverse culture, we have people from many different parts of the world all living together and learning something new about each other. Creativity and culture goes together like white on rice!! Because we are soo different, when we come together and brainstorm ideas we get the most unusual, wierd and creative idea in the end.

Below are our two mind maps which we made when we were in the process of choosing our idea and sculpting it.  We made our mind maps using iMindMap software..Tony Buzan's software. We actually have the picture for the mind map that we drew, but it wasn't too nice since none of us are really good in drawing :D

The first mind map is the one for " CREATIVITY IN THE CONTEXT OF MMU" 

The following mind map is a focus logical mind map of our topic. "CULTURE"

After that, our group leader, Liz, divided the parts for the essay of the topic between us. And here is our essay when we showed it on our presentation day, the title is " Diversity Of Culture In Multimedia University "

From the essay, we had to figure out a design concept.Design Concept is a short sentence which is catchy and represent our essay and topic, so it helped us to keep right in the track.
After brainstorming for 2 hours at the meeting! We chose a really catchy design concept, " Culture!! Your Symbol ".
Continue to the next step, we had to choose one method that we had been taught in the class to make a final artwork. IM hoping that you guys still remember the methods that i talked about, we had to choose between 3 methods

1. Random word/image association
2. Associated mind mapping
3. juxtaposition

And we chose to use the random word/ image association, yes i know this was very risky of us as this method is the hardest ever to understand and use, bet we knew we could do it. :-)

The image we chose was shirt, a t-shirt. From the image we chose the different elements of a t-shirt, which are color, size, style, brand, material, painting, to come up with our design concept which is " CULTURE YOUR SYMBOL "

Explanations :


a. Life can be dull, if there’s only one color. Same goes to languages, it brings us varieties. 
 Language

b. Does size reflect where you are coming from?
 Nationality

c. Style spices your life.
 Dress style

d. Your first move is how people brand you.
 Attitude

e. We are different because we have developed by differentmaterials.
 Food

f. Good painting attracts, bad printing destruct.
 Perception

We consulted to Mr.Halim up to this point, and we got a bit feeling that he wanted us to change something and improve our work, but we didnt have too much ideas what to do anymore, and anyway..he said we did good so far. :)
So, we proceeded to the last step, which was a final artwork. It will be a video.

and now...VOILA!!!! our final work...our awesome fabulous video!!!

AND THIS IS IT!!! I have enjoyed mt creative studies subject more than anything...Just because this is the end of the road for this class doesnt mean it is the end of the road for my creativity.. This is only the beggining, the best is yet to come.. I enjoyed working with my group mates very much and believe that this is the start of a very good friendship between all of us. We are chained together by chains of creativity!!!

Below is just a few pictures of our journey through out this whole experience
