finally.GAME OVER

Let's talk about what i had been doing last few weeks. Oh well, is taugh to handle an exhibition + event, yet this is still the small one. I believe if you are still studying in The One, you should notice mario's boxes around main block of The One Academy. Yaps... that's from me and Yi Wei and Multimedia Dept.

Let's review some behind the scene of "MM Got Games". You may not agree with me, but i think "MM Got Games" is the most suitable name for these event and exhibition which i was required to come out an event and exhibition that are fun, explorative, enjoyful and memorable. It sounds not right from the gramme or it's just not a proper english. But, after research and keep on mind mapping, i still think it's sound just nice and easy to remember. Just because i saw a title, "Britain Got Talent". Hehehe..

And also because of the main message that i want to deliver, is multimedia did have games subject or should i said, multimedia design also allowed you to enter games industries in the future which people outside there do not know. So, that's how "MM Got Games" come in.

Planning, planning and planning...looking for names, art directions, event ideas.
Then, we start building boxes. breakfast = box, lunch = box, dinner = box.

Also, to test up the Wii tournament timing to make sure the whole competition duration.
Oh ya.. we also having the MM ex guest lecturer to have an online sharing about Japan game culture live from Japan. So, this are the try out of the setting and internet speed. Well.. streamyx... =..=
They are from foundation class i suppose. Thanks for providing these photos for "documentation" hehehe..

This is how the mario's boxes function. To create awareness. Basically, mario design is just a tool to promote this event and exhibition. There is nothing related to mario in this event. To says, because mario is the 80's most famous game and everyone know mario. Even nowadays, people do play mario's games still. The only different thing is they are newer version of mario game. Just like mm's games, show developments, trends. And Yes. everyone know mario, easy for target audience to remember.

Oh well, this main poster is for the Wii Game Tournament. It's really alot of work to do this. This tournament is only open to 16 teams. I remember i first put on 20 forms up on this board. And after 3 days, those forms are all gone. "Wah..looks like alot of people going to join!". In case the forms not coming back, so i "refill" the up to 10 forms for the second time. And the same thing happened after a few days. And the 3rd time i refill and also the last time was 5 forms. Total, i have refilled 35 forms and end up i only received 11 forms. Yet there is still one last team register on that tournament day itself. I wonder where's the other 24 go? Hmn..

Oh.. as i mentioned, it's not only an event but also an exhibition. So we plan to have installation and games installed in lab and everywhere in TOA for the students to explore and play. Yet to let them feel the whole "Game Fevers" is coming.

The set ups for 3 of the installations is not as easy as you thought. Due to the limitation of equipments, it is unfair to borrow them whole week for the exhibition. Therefore, we agree to have only 12pm to 2pm everyday day for the whole week to exhibition our students' works. 12pm - 2pm which is the lunch hours and also you can see students around the college. So, that's the golden hours to get students to interact with.

We have our Multimedia Seniors on their game project sharing as well.
OK. The winning team and the 1st runner-up. Congras! The prizes ofcourse not only boxes la..
Winner : Question mark box (the girls team)
1st runner : Brick box (the guys team)

Thank you MM's staff.
Thank you participants.

Oh well.. that's game over. What now? reports lo...another projects lo..

(question mark boxes to be give away..anyone?)
