and Commonwealth Travel Company in 2011.

The club is delighted and honoured to announce that our entry on Glocalisation in Henderson Secondary School has clinched the second runner – up position in the competition. Our entry was one of the top three entries selected froma total of 34 entries for the Secondary/ITE/JC Category.

We had a tough competition from Nanyang Girls’ and Hwa Chong Institute .

Though we did not walk away with the top prize, the competition has given us the platform to be video journalists, be more confident of ourselves and realize our dreams of becoming a broadcaster.

We would like to thank all the teachers and the club members for your continued
Support. Without your encouragement and support, nothing would have been possible!

Info.Media Club had its camp to foster greater friendship and understanding amongst its members. The first two days were spent at Dairy Farm Adventure Centre where they had high element activites, night hike and geo-caching (map reading using GPS tools) to understand themselves better as a group as well as learnt to be more confident of themselves. The second night was spent at Esplanade where the members practiced the skills they have learnt in the photography lessons to capture the sights of the area after dawn.

Well Done, Guys and Girls :D

The club functions as per normal this week, 26th of August 2011, where the members were busy preparing for the SDMA competition.

While most groups were in school doing their editing, four of the Green Corridor Video Group went to Dairy Farm Adventure Centre to interview Mr Leong Kwok Peng, Vice President of Nature Society Singapore on his thoughts about the conservation of the Green Corridor.

It was a great experience for the group in doing outdoor video recording and interview important figures from non profit organisations like Nature Society Singapore. This is something that is new for the club members but will be something that will be a common thing for most of the members to venture into in the future. The details of the interview will be released once the video has been finalised for submission. Watch out for it !

This video was produced by Jazeerah (3E2) and Naung Oo (3E1) for the school's National Day Celebration to showcase the Singapore Spirit in Henderson. It took them almost two months to develop the script, record and gather necessary footages as well as editing the whole production. Their creativity has been praised by many teachers.

DV Campus 2011

2011-06-23T02:31:00.000-07:00

A group of IMC members participated in the DV Campus Competition this year. The topic was on learning journey trips or basically on our own school's Glocalisation programme. Research work was done by our former club Chairperson, Rahul (4E1) and the changes made by Nur Jazeerah (3E2), our current Chairperson. After the script was prepared, translation to Mandarin had to be made as the competition is in Chinese. The focus of the script is on the Gift of Sight Programme that the school has participated for a few years.

After scripting was done, we had to source out for video clips that the school has on any glocalisation trips that the school had conducted in the past. Apart from scripting, this was the next challenge as we realised that the videos were in the hands of different people.

The club is fortunate to have two China National pupils, Siwei (2E3) and Jiarui (3E1) who helped in the video recording as well as video editing. The members took almost three months (April to June) to complete the video for the competition. We hope to see our production screened on channel 8 very soon and hopefully be good enough to be in the top 3 placing.

The club would like to thank Mr Vincent Lim for allowing the club members to video record and interview the Thai visitors in April, Ms Violet Chew for helping out in the first translation process, Ms Ng NY and Ms Evelyn Wu for the Gift of Sight video clips, Mr Peh for his help in gathering videos on previous glocalisation trips, Mr Zahid and Mr Karthik for helping out in technical challenges and lastly to our presenter, Lihan, 3E4, who was sporting and took up the challenge to present the video.

On Nov 2010, we had a leadership training camp among a small group of people who are the upcoming excos of Info.Media as well as some of the current excos.

During the 3-day-camp, various kinds of activities were carried out and demonstrated some of the leadership qualities that are required for a leader.

Namely,

a cross-river game which shows how important the cooperation between each and every single members is,
a blindfolded-person-find-numbers game which shows that clear instruction is necessary for your fellow members to understand their jobs.
