Panic

I was very much panicked when Dr. Maznah posed plenty of questions to Mark and Lai Yee about their videos. I was very much of this alarm for I found their movies were not that bad. They were okay for me. But the situation changed when the movies did not reach Miss Ng as well as Dr. Maznah’s satisfaction. I felt my calmness leaving me. There was only terror inside me. I was nearly out of control but fortunately, a little of sanity was still there. Thus, I controlled myself and thankfully, the calmness was back again and I asked Dr. Maznah of the requirements to make a movie looks good to her. She thanked me for that question and promised me that she would have the requirements loaded in the internet.

Having myself waiting, I assessed my movie. It was still unfinished but viewing it ten times did not give me a single boredom. In fact, I was quite eager to sense any mistake in my coming-to-an-end movie. This eagerness was quite useful, I think for it gave improvement on to my movie. But, I could sense no mistake. I wondered if this was good news not having anything to be amended to. Having no amendment onto my movie created a feeling of uncertainty and uneasiness to me. I was very much in doubt if I was such a perfect movie maker. Since I had just enrolled in the movie plus with the fact that I was nearly a ‘computer-illiterate’ I decided to change a bit of my idea. The idea had been changed into the simpler one. In short, it appeared to be more logical; more to reality type.

I looked through the photos of animals I found from Google website. I scrutinized every photo and I felt that God was a great creator. The physical look of every animal was so unique namely the lion’s mane as well as the patches (which looked more like ‘bricks’ to me) on the giraffe’s body. This realization gave a beautiful idea on how to allow the audience of my movie got to see those uniqueness too. I then decided to use the ‘zooming in and out’ software. I had no idea if it was called software but that was what I planned to call it. In brief, my audience would get the chance to zoom any photo of the animal in my movie whenever they wanted to. For instance, if a giraffe has always been Ahmad’s (let’s say he was my audience) favourite animal, he could zoom the photo to have a closer look. By doing this, he could get to know more of the things that he might not know before. This could add more knowledge into him plus with the fact that the name of each animal was spelled in the most effective way.

Now I am still rushing. Having myself drawn the first two frames was not as difficult as searching for the right music for my movie. Honestly, I did think of putting in romantic music but since this movie was meant for children, I think it would be better if I put in catchy songs to enlighten them. They would be interested and hopefully they shake around or at least a little bit when the music is being play. This is something I hope to see so as to get to know if they like my movie. Even their laughter towards the movie maybe towards the music or animation can prove they enjoy my movie.

All right, it is time for me to get back to work. There are still plenty to do especially searching for the right music to be uploaded. Pray hard!
