The minutes of the meeting
1st Meeting 23 July 2021
Attendees: Ann Ruolin Dylan Kong
Content of the meeting: the presentation of their research results and homework results
Meeting place: Teams Group meeting (online)
Kong:
The style of my final presentation was a combination of goth rock and vinyl. In order to better fit the repetition in the song content and the helpless psychological mood of the singer, THE form of GIF is adopted to show the state of repeated and continuous singing.
Here’s the first one… The second chart is…. The last image shows the receding figure, which also indicates the end of the book.
Ann:
@Dylan why don’t you show me your work first?
Dylan:
Ok
My final work is presented in the form of font transformation. And made these fonts to feel like they are swimming in water. The song is full of religious elements, and water is one of the most important elements of religion. I extracted key words from the song and arranged them in a font I designed. Finally, I chose to show it in the form of video.
That’s the end of my presentation. Ann, what about yours?
Ann:
Well, my final form is a physical book. I haven’t finished the final shot yet, so LET me show you the layout of the digital version.
Dylan, Kong and Ruolin:
B: Ok.
Ann:
I reinterpreted the Mercy Seat. I designed and produced some illustrations to show the content of the lyrics. My final plan is to use these illustrations and the text of the lyrics to create a physical book with multiple forms. Many different materials make for a diverse reading experience. It’s space, vision, smell and touch.
And then the shoot for my physical book will take place next Wednesday. We’ll share it when it’s done.
Ruolin:
So let me show you my content.
I directly published the content on the collection of works website, you can log in to watch more detailed content. Time is limited, so I will briefly introduce the content of my work.
My target audience is the singer’s audience or people who want to play this song. So I made a dynamic poster in the form of a record pack. It’s like a restless CD. I can’t wait to tell my story to the audience.
Ann:
Why don’t we just call it a day? And then we’ll have a meeting at school when we’re all free?
Dylan, Kong and Ruolin:
B: Ok.

Ann: It can be used as an expression of font variation.
Ruolin: I think music can be presented with fast drums. In this way, the works with everyone can leave a strong visual impact and attract the attention of the audience.
Kong: In my social media presentation, I will capture some more dynamic music from the Mercy Seat.
And the personal video presentation part, I might compress it. Think ins and Tik Tok are sometimes long limited.

Ruolin: That part of the video I think can be nailed down like that.
Ann: After discussing the layout of the web page with Ruolin, I decided to use Dylan’s poster work of four people as the opening page of the web page.
Dylan: You can use the element of four people’s eyes as the icon of the personal page entry link.

Ruolin: The video CLIPS I made earlier can be used as an introduction to the web page. It can also be regarded as a preview of the exhibition of personal works.

Attendees: Ann Ruolin Dylan Kong
Content of the meeting: posters and videos were revised and iterated, and the form of marketing was determined

Ann: I think the style may be too bland. I think the style of the poem is still a little bit darker.
Kong: This song is still death rock.
Ruolin: I think we can still add a little bit of gothic to it.
Dylan: Andy said earlier that the song’s style is not bloody. But I think there’s still a gothic element to it. You can also add some religious elements to it.
Kong: The Mercy seat is typical, or water.
Ann: I think we can modify it and incorporate some of your works.

6th Meeting, 4 August 2021
Attendees: Ann Ruolin Dylan Kong
Content: Discussion on the presentation form of the final presentation
All content is ultimately presented in the form of the establishment
Meeting place: School cafe
Ann: Can I show you the final video Ruolin first?
Ruolin: Well, the final video was mixed cut. Take the works of four people as the theme, with rhythmic music to explore. Changing pictures can match the rhythm of the music, which can make the whole video more powerful. In addition, black was chosen as the main color of the video, and Dylan’s font was used for color transformation. The final result is much more variable.
Ann: Ok, let me introduce the web page that Ruolin and I made.
The web page is finally made with MIX, which will be more interactive. The homepage of The website first shows a large poster content to highlight The theme of The Exhibition: Digital Art Exhibition about The re-interpretation of The Mercy Seat. In addition, the song introduction about the Mercy Seat is added to facilitate user groups to have more detailed understanding. And in the web page there are personal work introduction and personal works introduction page.
Dylan: For the one-man poster I made, I used each person’s initials to highlight the individual. And the initials form the word “dark”. “Dark” refers to the theme of the song, as well as the names of the group members. In addition, I made the icon of the button to enter the personal page according to the characteristics of each person’s eyes. The eyes can represent us to see the world through the song, and the audience can also see our understanding of the work through the eyes.
Kong: OK, let me talk about the final social media release plan.
I plan to spread the message in a wider range through the platform of INS. And detailed, targeted tagging along with Posting content. By doing so, our target audience will pay attention to our work while browsing related topics. In addition, I paid attention to many target users through the official account created by this exhibition. Once these target users can be closed back. Ultimately, we’ll get more engagement.
Ann: I don’t have any problem with the specific scheme operation. So in the presentation on Thursday, we will mainly show the part of the webpage. As I am also the creative director, can I mainly report to the teacher and explain the work, while other students answer questions?
Dylan, Ruolin and Kong: Okay, sure.
Achieve your goals:
- Sort out the final project results
- Establish the final form of reporting
- Determine the speakers and q&A candidates for the report.

Statement
In p3 learning tasks, p2 was assigned to the students of the same topic to contingent, with a group of four situation in p2 p3 task again on the basis of the creation.
My work in the team is WEB/ CODING DESIGNER/ SPACE ORGANISER. Our group’s plan is to aggregate and reinterpret the themes of our P2 content through the Internet platform. Therefore, my job is to re-create p2 works of four members of our group and present them to the audience through videos and websites. I work by the following parts, respectively is the editor of video production and website design.
Video production: 1. Observe the work of team members and find common ground between them. 2. Communicated with members and collected the main elements of video production. 3. The combination of The Mercy Seat style and features of The rock for The creation of The video. 4. Draw the video points mirror and frame structure, and to output the video. 5. Analyze and modify the long rhythm and length of the video to make it more suitable for appearing on the homepage of the website.
Web page design: 1. Conduct web page design and first operation experiment. 2. Modify and delete the less expressive content on the web page. 3. Sketch and check web pages. 4 web page creation and operation.
Others: 1. Conference notes. 2. Sketches of videos and web pages.
In this work, I want to, I and my team members’ understanding of this piece of rock and the easiest to read directly with enough to show the fans of this song and want to know about it. So I made many changes in the production and editing of videos and web pages. I think this process is a redesign. I hope our website platform can use the fastest speed to catch the reader’s attention, and let them have interest to move on. Therefore, I discussed with Ann for a long time in the design of the video and website. After correcting and demonstrating many details in the draft, I decided to adopt a large number of contrasting colors and red and black and white colors that I thought could best reflect the mood of the song, so as to make it more attractive and let the audience be immersed in the content of the song.
I also encountered some difficulties in my work. The biggest difference between it and the previous projects I completed alone was the change in the number of people. It means I’m not just dealing with myself at work, I’m dealing with my players. The four of us has a different work and design way of thinking. For me, before making video of our work in this paper, the content of the communication and the common ground of summary and induction is very important. Four lives far apart for us players?, online communication seems to be no offline communication more efficient. This was something that really bothered me at the time.
About I feel a little bit sorry, is our time in p3 project is very hurry, some things not to discuss and plan was carried out so much, there may not be so perfect, we expected but still make me happy is that we successfully completed the project.
