Progress 2
For the first stage we had to create a Logical mind map based on creative studies as the major view for this assignment 2.
Then, we had to deepen the topic for our focus mind map (A NEW CREATIVE TAKE ON EDUCATION by using motion graphic).
As we discussed on our last meeting today we have to make our focus mind map. But we have to choose the topic for the focus mind map where we discussed and decided to make the uses of creative multimedia on education. Then we produced another focus mind map. Where we just focus on our topic “uses of creative multimedia technology on our education system.” We finished our meeting for today after we decided to see tomorrow for the essay writing.

Progress 1
We had given a task to create a creative thing for this assignment 2.
So for the first group meeting, we had discussed many topics but we are still in blur with the task given.
After a couple hours, the leader had explained everything and we had chosen a topic. The topic of our group is A NEW CREATIVE TAKE ON EDUCATION by using motion graphic.
Today we have the first meeting. As we know we got another group assignment for creative studies. Our theme is “creative multimedia”. We have to make a presentation based on this theme and we have to follow one of the methods of idea generation with the correct step of creative studies. Then today we did the first logical mind map which is general mind map which include the basic information about the creative multimedia. Finally we decided to make the focus mind map on our next meeting.

Random EXCERSICE
ANALOG EXERCISE
ANALOG METAPHOR SIMILE
Metaphor
-A metaphor is a figure of speech that uses one thing to mean another and makes a comparison between the two. For example, Shakespeare's line, "All the world's a stage," is a metaphor comparing the whole world to a theater stage.
-Metaphors can be very simple, and they can function as most any part of speech.
Analog
An analog is a bit more complicated. At the most basic level, an analogy shows similarity between things that might seem different, much like an extended metaphor or simile. But analogy isn't just a form of speech. It can be a logical argument: if two things are alike in some ways, they are alike in some other ways as well. Analogy is often used to help provide insight by comparing an unknown subject to one that is more familiar. It can also show a relationship between pairs of things. This form of analogy is often used on standardize tests in the form "A is to B as C is to D."
Simile
-an open comparison
-a form of metaphor that compares two different things to create a new meaning. But a simile always uses "like" or "as" within the phrase and is more explicit than a metaphor. For example, Shakespeare's line could be rewritten as a simile to read: "The world is like a stage."
JUXTAPOSITION
In literature and film, juxtaposition is the arrangement of two opposing ideas, characters, objects and much more. Adapt from the movie Lost, often uses juxtaposition to further develop the storyline or characters - it is applied variously to opposing emotions, abstract concepts, character values or images.
There are two types of juxtaposition.
1. Juxtaposition literary
2. Random Juxtaposition
Juxtaposition Literary : Synonymous with contrast, two objects or text that oppose one and another.
Random Juxtaposition : Two random objects move in parallel, a technique intended to stimulate creativity.
