SINGAPORE - A Ngee Ann Polytechnic student, 18, is animating motion graphics for the National Day Parade show on Aug 9 as part of his final-year capstone project.
“In school, the lecturers are there to guide you, and you can always ask for extensions. But with the NDP, there is a tight schedule for you to follow, so you really don’t have time to mess up and search for tutorials. A lot of the things are on the fly.” “When my work was shown on screen, it was kind of embarrassing because my friends were like, ‘Wow, it’s your work’. It also really made me proud to see the fruits of my labour,” he said.
“Being behind the camera, you can show the audience all the shows that we have been doing, capture the beautiful moments from different parts of the show,” he said.
