1. Introduction to the TAB 3.0
After the morning briefing by Mrs. Loke and the various teachers in charge, I first collected the payment for the files while Mr. Heng collected the cheques. After which, two of the guys (Melvin and Justin), went down to the stage to collect the files for the people in our attachment. Mr. Heng, our tutor-mentor, then brought us to the art room, where he showed us a few of the better WOW files that he had compiled from the previous batches.
As the external vendor, Mr. Ahmad from Singapore Polytechnic could not make it down to college for the first day, he emailed us with instructions. In the email, we were told to download the software and familiarize ourselves with it. The programme we were going to learn to use for the next three weeks was called ‘the TAB 3.0 Pro’, and though it seemed simple enough to use, in actual fact, it was not.
It took me two hours to go through the user’s guide, and even then, being new to the software, I was still a little clueless, as I’m more of a hands-on person. After that, again it took me another two hours playing around with the software at home before I could get the basics of it, and also, on the next day (Tuesday), a little help from Rachel, a fellow classmate, in answering my question as to how to add another level for the colour palette.
