perhaps, im really not a creative person..
the grp presentation wasn’t a grp work la! more lyk an individual assignment for him to showcase his video editing skills and talents can..the whole idea wasn’t anyth lyk we discussed, we din appear in the video (NOT AT ALL), the video was filmed on his own (without us taking part in the filming at all) and the main thing is we were not told this video was alr in the making process (according to him, 70% done at that time).. when we wanted to change the idea,then he suddenly tell us its 70% done liao..din update us of the progress at all..he sae he agreed to the change when his actions all prove otherwise..listening to the ipod during the meeting, flipping his magazine and rushing to go home..the whole thing was lyk distorted..we wanted to kip his part to suit into our new idea but he sae he cant rmb wad he put in his video..COME ON!!is this poss? in the end, we continued with his idea coz everything is all so messy..
we din even noe he embarked on this video right from the start can..he kip saying he can do everything and he can do anything we give him..can anyone tell me in wad way is this a grp project? and wads worse..he refused to show us wad he has done (the 70% done video he claimed that time)..only assuring us once and again that he will get it done by then..HELLO PEOPLE!!if you dun show us wad u haf alr done, how can we improve on it? i appreciate all that u haf done but surely theres place for improvement isnt it? and this oso imply we haf no single idea of wads going on and wads happening in the video until the actual day when we present..i cant stand this..does this resemble any bit of a grp work or grp effort? when we ask is there any way we can contribute and help, guess his reply..no need..trust me la i will get the video done de.wad crap is this la..
and before claz on the day of our presentation, one of the proj mates called for a meeting (to hopefully make any last min changes to the video and watch it before we showed it to the claz)..we all turned up except him!he claimed he doesn’t even noe we haf a meeting!how wonderful..but the time he arrived, we only haf time to watch the video..no time to edit etc..
argh!it was a horrible experience on the whole basically.. its not i discriminate them lei..but its all the experiences with them that tell it all..all I need is one such example to prove my thinking right..i dun care if this is hasty generalisation or wad crap..sometimes it doesn’t pay to be good or kind.. I haf learnt my lesson..and I haf made a decision..silently..
