Our creative students make use of design and interactive elements to create visually stimulating pieces of work. Given both the knowledge of technical skills like coding and the freedom to create, they bring about fresh perspectives to give meaning to the shapes on screen.
Deeply invested in gaming, particularly DotA, Sergio Koh designed and coded GGWP, a digital folio centered around Esports. His interest in games and passion for design led him to take the module condes, where he was given the opportunity to work on this personal project.
GGWP features Sergio’s invaluable experience from playing DotA, including game highlights and helpful tips for beginners.
Armed with a burning passion for all things culture, Amber Qua prepared Scorch – a compendium of wildly discordant identities connected by the human spirit. The magazine was named for humanity’s fiery soul, hungering for the next novel adventure or experience; it was created for those who want to see more than the “mainstream” culture they are used to.
With the goal of showcasing global cultures to youths, Scorch features Amber’s curation of some of the world’s wildest festivals.
Aimed at fellow film junkies, Kim Suhyun’s digital folio, cindié, centers around independent movies around the world while bringing attention to non-commercialised movies that are less talked about or mentioned in the media. Her love for indie movies also prompted her to highlight in cindié how indie movies can be as interesting and even more artistically diverse than normal Hollywood blockbusters.
Wipe It! aimed to teach users the importance of wiping the toilet seat. Using the main character Wonder Wiper’s vision, users could “detect” and wipe away germs that are invisible to the naked eye. At the end of the game, users get to keep a printed receipt of their score to remind them of their good work, further reinforcing the campaign’s message of toilet hygiene.
MegaFlush educated users on what can and cannot be flushed, and reinforce toilet etiquette in terms of flushing after use. The game is set in LooTown, which is flooded after irresponsible citizens clogged the toilets by not flushing. Users had to help The Flush save LooTown by flushing all the flushable items.
