NYP SDM GRAD SHOW OPENER 2023

Team School Assignment

"Loud is energetic. Loud is confident. Loud is uproarious. But being loud is a contradiction and to us, it's our stand. Having spent most of our formative years in lockdown with virtual lessons, it left us feeling creatively stifled. Loud is the antithesis to boring; The antidote, It's about utilising our creativity to challenge the mundane. As Creatives, we choose to be loud." - MANIFESTO 

With the manifesto in mind, we wanted to tell our story from the beginning. How as secondary school grads with secret worlds constructed in our minds we want to express, thinking ‘it couldn’t be that hard’. To evolving into becoming more mature and hardened from our journey from fresh eye-ed year 1s’, forced into a cookie cutting mold or design rules. To year 3 graduates, understanding where we came from and being able to apply the rules of design not to box ourselves in but more accurately represent ourselves through our designs.

We wanted to show instead of tell, people how we’ve always been LOUD. we just managed to channel the noise in our heads into our designs that scream who we are.

Samsung Flip Z - Mock Advertisement

As part of a school module, the brief was to create a set of mock styleframes to promote and generate awareness of the new flip smartphone and its features.

The concept for this set was inspired by light trails in a dark atmosphere and to achieve the look, I experimented with the Trapcode plugin in After Effects.

iQIYI Brand Ident

iQIYI is a leading internet video and entertainment streaming service in China. The objective of the brief given was to generate brand awareness and give a clear impression of what they can deliver.
