The report was collated and self-edited for submission of the first report.
Acknowledgment, Table of Content, List of Illustrations & Tables, References and Annexes were not included in the first draft of the report. Screen shots and visuals are not included in the first draft.
The first draft of the report was completed and passed to our supervisor, Ms Tan Hwee Bin, on the 31st of December.

Completion of Experimental Videos
We managed to complete all the experimental videos before the start of the new year. The only thing left to do with these videos, is to find a video compressing software which would signitifcantly reduce the big size of the videos.
Although we managed to find a couple of software, it was either, there was a watermark present after the video was converted, or the quality of the converted video was not meant for full-screen views. The video looked blur after converting.
However, that quality is sufficient for uploading onto online streaming websites such as YouTube.

Addition of Audio into the Videos
Software that was used for Audio Editing:
We decided that an added incentive to visuals and animations would be audio. Audio in terms of the insertion of voice. The voice would be one of the group member's which would be edited before being inserted into the video. Basically, the audio would be the narration of the objectives, procedures and explanations.
Two similar programs were used for the audio editing. They are Audacity and AV Voice Changer Software 6.0.
As the title of the programs speaks for itself, AV Voice Changer Software 6.0, is used to edit the pitch, frequency, threshold and more audio related properties. It also has a function to convert a person's normal recorded voice into a different voice. For example, a man's voice can be converted into either a woman's or child's voice.
The other software, Audacity, is used for recording, editing and converting the sounds used into .mp3 format. After recording the audio, noise and echo can be eliminated by the function noise and echo reduction. This provides a much clearer recorded audio.
The last two images are for the software VoiceMX Studio. We downloaded a trail version of the software. basically, the software will read/ voice out whatever the user types.

Report
The report was split up into 3 parts, Introduction, Setup of Project and, Discussions & Recommendations,with each group member taking a part.
The section Setup of Project was initially under the Introduction section. However, due to the slightly large chunk of Introduction, we came to a conclusion that the Setup of Project, being another large section, was to be singled out as another main header.
Introduction consists of :
- Background information
- Theory on Videos
- Scope of Project
- Laboratory Safety
- Experimental Videos
Setup of Project consists of:
- Concepts
- Laboratory Safety
- Experimental Videos
- Resources & Equipment
- Video Software Comparison
- Methodology
Discussions & Recommendations consists of:
- Discussion
- Problems Encountered
- Solutions
- Future Work & Improvement
The conclusion was also included in the part of for Discussions & Recommendations.
The report doesn't include results and findings as our final product would be the developed videos.
