// Submission week //

Finally this is the submission week for us. I have uploaded my poster design and progression file into google drive in order to make them easier to refer for group casebook documentation.  In last, I start working on my individual casebook and putting all my research from initial to design progression and lastly the final design into it. 

Finally, CCCP 3 come to an end. 

This is the good experience for me to work with my team. Thanks to the hard works that all of us have putting into this project. Without the cooperation from all of us, this project won’t be completed.

// Third Week After Intensive Week //

Finally we were having a consultation time with our lecturer, Robin !

We get to know the deadline for submission through this conversation. Besides, we decided to do a consent form for participation to visit our exhibition. 

In this week, I try to finalised my collage posters. In order to make the collage posters looks as a series, I have adjust the tone, hue and saturation and place the tagline of this project in the same placement for every poster design.

// Second week after intensive week //

In this week, we were having a small update from each of the members. 

However, the progression didn’t goes smooth as I think. Logo design was haven’t been finalised in this week as Celine would be working on the logo. Allen and I will be doing the posters design, Allen will doing the parody posters and I will be doing the collage art. 

This is the most challenging task for me as I am not good in collage art. Therefore, I started to look for different reference through online. I’ve tried in arranging the visual piece by piece in order to get the best result. 

At the same time, others team members were working on website design, exhibition 3D mockup, video shooting and editing.

// First week after intensive week //

As all of us were busying on our individual assignment, we didn’t have big progression on this week. However, as time goes by we didn’t want to waste our time. Therefore, we were having discussion to change one of our keywords from chaos to aggressive.  Other than that, we are also trying to take some images of loan shark advertisement that we saw along the road side. We will be using all of the photos as our images resources for our casebook, posters design as well as collage art.

Hopefully everything will goes well in the coming weeks.

// Day 5 // 

This is the last day of intensive week, also the final presentation of us in CCCP3. During the presentation, we introduced our project from our exhibition name, tagline, marketing strategy to exhibition floor plan. Although this is the last day of our intensive week but there are still have a lot of improvement and development we need to undergo in the following weeks. 

Other than that, we also feel sad as this is the last time we were having class together. Lecturers would be flying back to Manchester. Hopefully we have chance to meet again one day :)

On the same day, Juan also giving us a small sharing session on how to make a good and effective presentation. Juan also showing our previous presentation slide in CCCP 2 as a good example to all of us. He reminded us not to put too much of text in presentation slide as audience might not digest it. However, visual playing an important role in our presentation slide.

// Day 3 //

Today we were preparing ourself for an informal presentation in afternoon session. We were working on our exhibition name, objectives, target audience and what we will be doing for exhibition. This could become our guideline that helping us through the project.

Other than that, we also working on our marketing strategy on today. We decided to create poster and a website to promote this project. We have decided the art direction for poster design which are parody style and collage art. 

At the end of the day, we have come out with an Gantt chart that help us keep on track. Each of us were given different tasks according to different strength and specialisations.

//Day 02//

Today, we decided to narrow down the topic and came out an idea of Loan Shark in Malaysia as we found the vandalism which we done at previous day is too wide.

We want the audience to feel the impact of loan shark inside the exhibition.Thus, we decided to make the exhibition as a occurrence of the scene when loan shark happened to the victims.

We also came out with 5 keywords which are social desperation, abuse, criminality, burden and aggressive that we think relevant and best describe our title ‘Loan Shark’. A 150 words of short paragraph as our concept brief are also done.

Before end with this day, we were present our 5 keywords and 150words paragraph in front of all. The feedback we got was above average.

//Day 01//

At the first day of our intensive week, we were separated back into the same group in CCCP2, Team Glitch :) We were writing our initial findings and idea on sticky notes as it is a starting point for us to select of the topic to further explore. We want to do something unique rather than common topic. We spent our time on finding a right topic. 

After a long session of discussion, we decided to choose illegal moneylenders in Malaysia as our main topic. Loan shark in Malaysia are famous with their banners as we can see their advertisement along the road side from lamp posts to old public telephone.

We ended this day by presenting our initial idea in front of everyone. We were trying to look deeper at the next day.
