END OF SEMESTER REFECTION

  Overall the experience with being in a group was really challenging because everything is made out of scratch and we just got to help each other. There were times that it was so stressful cause in the beginning I was all on fire and I have to share this fire with my group mates which wasn't very easy at all but in the end, we made it and I'm so grateful about the cooperation that everybody is sharing. For example, someone might have not been good in rigging, we can let him do the job but being a rigger, he might not be a good at lighting to we took it and divided the project amongst ourselves. 

   Personally throughout the process, I learned a lot by exploring the areas I wanted like concept, texturing, compositing and sound fx. It was technically challenging era as it is like a big step out there and take that leap of advancement to be ready for the life outside school. 
I learned how to manage neatly more in my texturing and painting glossiness and spec maps. The importance of MIA material and its properties on how it affects the look development of our work.
Furthermore, I learned new thing in compositing especially the VFX because I guess this is it, you just got to try whether its crappy or not as long as you just take that step and believe it will improve. I also explored on a new area which is Sound fx. It was so fascinating cause its like music, there's rhythm,composition and tone. I was able to apply my knowledge of arranging songs and composing music to this project to set the mood and timing. Moreover with our film direction from our CCS, we re able to sync them all together and produce something beautiful our of our final advertisement. It's all about resourcefulness and patience! Those are one of the most important things I learned. Team spirit,trust and that faith you guys will make to the end by working out together regardless of any conditions that might hold it all up!

Overall it was a very great experience studying and working in LASALLE, they really equipped you on what's out there in the industry. Even before I go army, I can keep and nurture what I learned till the time comes when I enter the industry, we can all enter as better person as long as we keep what is right and be always on track.
