Progress
Project Description:
1. Creating awareness (such as Global Warming, Recycle, etc.)
Using a processed design framework, you will now produce
an infographic report to present the given information to a ‘target
audience’ with the purpose of:
2. Explaining a process (such as "how to" video)
3. Defining a concept (such as "What is Fast Fashion", "What is Color Wheel", etc.)
Any time-based media and software using photography, vector imagery.

The presentation must be deliberated on, consider each
assessment rubric of sorts to your final outcome:
● Show causality
● Multivariate graphics and visuals
● Integrate word number and images
● Content count
● Within eyesight
● Use multiple charts
● Do not de-quantify

Submission Requirement:
- Video resolution: 1920px x 1080px HD (min 1.5 mins max 3 mins)
- A ± 3-minute animated infographic uploaded into YouTube (unlisted)
- Digital compilation into Google Drive Folder
- Online posts in your E-portfolio as your reflective studies
Week 1/03.02.2025
First week of the class, we are informed to choose our group member as this
group project will start in week 1 and end in the final week, so we 6
members as a team, and our presentation date as week 6 of this semester
Week 2/10.02.2025
We started on thinking for our group topic, as we have two choices to do this group project, first is choose an infographic animation to improvise and the second choice is to start on a new topic, we first think of choosing the first option, we have a few idea such as hydrologic science video, mathematic video, SDG food waste video.
Week 3/17.02.2025
We start on doing slide for these topics to consult with Mr Fauzi
Week 4/24.02.2025
We changed into another topic, as we think it would be interesting to start
with a new topic, and it will be more flexible to start A to Z. We agree on
doing topic as "How Exercise Affect Your Muscle."
Week 5/03.03.2025
For this week, we use two weeks to do for the script, narration and
storyboard to propose our idea.
Week 6/10.03.2025
For this week, we have proposed our idea to Mr Fauzi and Mr Shamsul, they agree on our topic, and make a good planning for our animation, so we started on the production for animation, as doing the vector, animation, sound effect and refinement.
Week 7/17.03.2025
The final week we have done everything under our group work, the link below will be the working file that we put all our asset, animation inside it.

Week 6
The story are organised, can be improve with more text presentation to show the InfoMation, and LATCH principle
Reflection
Working on this project was an exciting opportunity to combine my passion for animation with the goal of educating others about the science behind exercise and muscle growth. My role focused on creating an animated infographic that visually explained how exercise impacts muscles, from the breakdown of muscle fibers to their repair and growth. I aimed to make the animation engaging and easy to understand, using motion graphics to illustrate concepts like muscle contraction, protein synthesis, and the role of rest in recovery.
One of the biggest challenges was ensuring the animation aligned with the project's requirements, such as showing causality (e.g., how exercise leads to muscle growth) and integrating multivariate visuals (e.g., charts, diagrams, and text). I used vector imagery and smooth transitions to keep the flow cohesive while maintaining a balance between aesthetics and clarity. The animation was designed to fit within the 1.5 to 3-minute timeframe, ensuring it was concise yet informative.
Collaborating with my team was a highlight of this project. We worked together to ensure the animation complemented the overall infographic report, maintaining consistency in style and tone. This experience not only improved my technical animation skills but also taught me the importance of teamwork and communication in creating a cohesive final product.
Overall, this project deepened my understanding of how animation can be a powerful tool for simplifying complex concepts and engaging audiences. I’m proud of the final outcome and how it effectively communicates the science behind exercise and muscle growth in a visually compelling way.
