SINGAPORE CHINESE GIRLS' SCHOOL
Focuses On The Perfect Cupcake
Focuses on "Social Defense"

It was a great interesting exposure at the Top 40 Pitching at Nanyang Polytechnic;I had the chance to catch a glimpse on how the Pitching was conducted.

This group was one of the three that I managed to take a peek at. Their basis on social defense shows a great importance of the different cultures and identity of people. Equality among races and religions are the utmost priority and the cakes is depicts perfectly that Singapore is the Perfect Cupcake: A cupcake that consists a perfectly mixed mixture of different kinds of ingredients.

Judges of Their Group
Asking Certain Questions & Giving Pointers

Even though they did not make it to the Top 20, I believe that they will succeed in their future endeavors.

Duck Vaders
CHIJ ST. NICHOLAS GIRLS' SCHOOL
Focuses on All Five Aspects of Total Defense

Their RAP was indeed amazing and they deserved to be one of the Top 20 Teams of N.E.mation! 10 this year.

Certain aspects that they have to improve on that was highlighted during the pitch was that the rap was a little off their desired focus. It sounded more towards "Military Defense" instead of "Total Defense". 

Moreover, the judges asked intuitive questions such as "If you were given more time, how will you work on the story?"

Their replies were that they will improve on the message that they were trying to deliver via the rap. They also mentioned that they would further develop their story line and make it more relatable to people.

FINISHING POSE

Honestly speaking, their "RAP" was superbly interesting and unique. To me I personally feel that they're quite a strong team due to their unique choice of delivery. I believe that they might be able to compete among the Top 10 Finalist if they were to improve on certain loop holes that were mentioned by the judges

So The Results Are Out, What's Next?

Over the Next 2 Days, we have scheduled a series of workshops to:

1) Enrich the Top 20 Teams experience in animation;

2) Help the Top 20 teams further refine and improve their story in preparation for Saturday’s Top 20 SuperPitch where we will pick the Top 10 Teams of N.E.mation! 10.

I'm A Personal Poem Fanatic
They Did A Great One!

Their focus was to provide advises for the viewers and to help change the negative traits of people for the better. They were trying to introduce the eye in a better perspective in the sense that every single part of the eye plays an important role and it signifies something of Singapore too.

CEDAR GIRLS' SECONDARY SCHOOL

However, it was recommended by the judges that they should not focus on the "EyeLid" even though they meant it in a good way as it sounds exactly like "I-Lead" so that it encourages leadership. 

I'm glad that they managed to got into the Top 20 Teams too. For the other teams pitching for the Top 10 Finalist, I wish you all the best and hope that your hard work over the weeks will be paid off. Even if you didn't enter the Top 10 Finalist or you aren't the winner of the N.E.mation! 10, I believe that it's the experience and the knowledge that you gain that matters the most.

Introduced By My Best Friend

To Be Honest, I wasn't aware that Singapore had such an amazingly fun activity at Sentosa. But, I feel that it's an activity that I'll definitely head back for "Round 2" or even "Round 3" and so on, as it's something unique, fun and enjoyable that could be done either with my family or friends

Most Importantly, trust me like what their slogan says "Once Is Never Enough" as you'll yearn for more rides, one after another.

Amazingly Unique SkyRide

SkyRide
Feels Like I'm Sitting Another Ride

Due to my fear of heights, this SkyRide feels like a whole new ride by itself as sitting on the Metal Seats of the SkyRide while looking down at how far I am from the ground; sends shivers down my spine.

But after awhile, I become accustomed to the height difference and ended up sitting there normally without the need to face my fears during the Journey to the starting point of the Trails. That's why it's important to not think about the height but focus on something else to distract you while taking any rides that involves being in a position that's way higher than the ground.

Shorter Queues @ Luge Trail Starting Point

Luge Map
Embark on The Dragon/Jungle Trail

I would personally prefer heading down the "Jungle Trail" as it has relatively more bends as compared to the "Dragon Trail".

Jungle Trail
Head Down @ Top Speed & Enjoy The Wind

Once you've gotten the hang of controlling the luge, heading down the Trail at Top Speed without stopping or breaking would be easier. Try putting yourself to the test by aiming to reduce the frequency of braking, you'll make this trail even more thrilling than it already is.

However, do proceed with caution and only proceed at high speed when you're really sure that you have mastered the arts of playing the luge.

How To Ride On The Luge
Accelerate & Braking

Before Embarking on Your Journey through the two different trails. It is compulsory to check whether your brakes are working before leaving.

At The Starting Point
Preparing To Embark On Our Trail

The Skyline Luge's Staff will ensure proper checks are done before letting you leave the starting point.

When riding the Luge, the maximum speed is achieved when the handles are pushed forward till the minimal mark of the green indicator at the center of the luge near the handle. If you were to push the luge totally forward, the luge will be at its neutral position and there will not be any movement at all. 

By pulling the handle bar towards you, this triggers the brakes that is of utmost importance to ensure maximum safety during your journey through the trails.
