This study investigates the underrepresentation of Visual Effects (VFX) breakdowns in Malaysian cinema through a case study of Air Force The Movie: Selagi Bernyawa, the award-winning film from the 32nd Malaysia Film Festival (FFM). Employing a qualitative approach, it combines semi-structured interviews with four experienced VFX professionals and visual analysis of selected scenes. Thematic analysis reveals that time and resource constraints, legal and intellectual property (IP) restrictions, and a limited perceived return on investment are major barriers to producing VFX breakdowns. However, the findings also demonstrate that breakdowns provide substantial value by enhancing studio visibility, supporting educational use, promoting creative problem-solving, and strengthening industry communication. The study documents the VFX workflow, tools, and production timeline, and reconstructs three scenes using illustrative breakdowns developed under legal constraints. These reconstructions off.....

The purpose of this study was to develop a Task-driven Mobile Learning model to enhance the Information Communication Technology (ICT) competencies of the pre-service teachers. The model adopted the Design Development Research (DDR) methodology. In this study, the needs analysis phase consisted of three parts: a survey of 278 pre-service teacher students using a questionnaire, semi-structured interviews with seven university lecturers, and analysis of seven official documents and relevant course documents. The results of the data analysis in this phase showed that undergraduate pre-service teacher students lacked ICT skills, and that upgrading their information technology skills required a task-driven and mobile learning combined strategy. During the design and development phase, a literature analysis and expert survey methodology was used. The initial prototype of the model was identified by analyzing the literature, and then the final TDML model was identified after two consultative .....

Grounded in the Stimulus-Organism-Response (SOR) model, this study aimed to determine the effect of Co-creation Experience (CCE) dimension [i.e., Co-creation Behavior (CCB) and Experiencescape (EXP)] on Post-trip Perceptions (PP) dimension [i.e., Memorability (MEM) and Satisfaction (SAT)], the effect of CCE and PP dimensions on Homestay Revisit Intention (HRI) and the mediating role of PP dimension in the effect of CCE dimension on HRI. This study was conducted in Henan Province, China. The sample for this study consisted of 433 homestay tourists, who were selected using a cluster sampling technique. Data were collected using a questionnaire as an instrument and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). The findings showed that CCB (_=0.705, p < 0.001) and EXP (_=0.183, p < 0.001) have a significant positive effect on MEM. The findings also revealed the significant positive effect of CCB (_=0.243, p < 0.001) and EXP (_=0.620, p < 0.001) on SAT. Furthermore, CCB (_ = 0.243, p <.....

The computer science subject poses significant challenges to learners, including cognitive overload due to abstract concepts, low motivation, and a lack of adequate visualization and learning materials. Thus, this study addressed these challenges by designing and developing an interactive Augmented Reality (AR) module (SmartAR Module) for programming. In particular, this study aimed to design, develop, and evaluate the SmartAR Module by examining its usability and effect on student achievement and motivation in learning computer science among secondary school students. Employing a one-group pre-test-post-test research design, this study utilized the ADDIE instructional design framework and Jonassen's (1977) problem-solving learning strategy to develop the module. Accordingly, the development process began with a needs analysis through semi-structured interviews with five computer science students and two teachers, followed by validation from seven experts. The experts agreed that the S.....

Kajian ini merangka garis panduan pembangunan program permainan teater berasaskan konsep escape room sebagai medium kreatif bagi memupuk semangat patriotisme melalui pendekatan seni persembahan. Penurunan kesedaran terhadap nilai patriotik dalam kalangan masyarakat Malaysia, khususnya disebabkan kurangnya pengalaman langsung serta jurang pengetahuan terhadap sejarah, identiti nasional, dan peranan individu dalam masyarakat, menjadi antara pendorong utama kepada inisiatif ini. Selain itu, pengaruh budaya luar turut menyumbang kepada penghakisan nilai tempatan yang berkait dengan patriotisme. Kajian ini tertumpu kepada khalayak Malaysia berumur 17 tahun ke atas, melibatkan konteks produksi seni persembahan serta institusi yang mendukung agenda perpaduan nasional. Pendekatan penyelidikan adalah kualitatif, berasaskan kerangka teori Viola Spolin melalui Teori Permainan, dan mengaplikasikan lima pendekatan penciptaan utama: naratif imersif (immersive storytelling), reka bentuk ruang (spatia.....

In the post-epidemic era, when globalisation and localisation require growth in China's arts and culture industries, this study focuses on three major challenges: technological illiteracy amongst educators, skill shifts in still-life drawing as a result of the epidemic, and the gap in technological proficiency between students and teachers at the Mianyang Teachers' College in Sichuan Province. Using the Quest 2 VR headset and Painting VR software, this study explored how virtual reality (VR) can improve the skills and knowledge of technologically illiterate teachers in the field of still life sketching. Data came from three groups: sketching and VR experts, participating teachers, and assessment experts. The study used a qualitative case study approach with purposive sampling and the data were analysed using ATLAS.ti. TThe findings shows that virtual reality (VR) has the potential to revolutionise art education. However, integrating VR into art curricula faces barriers due to current t.....
