Name Card Sharing

After done some research about creative name card, I found that:

Creative name card can attract people.

The idea can be related to the company type if possible.

Most important, the name card can't be just creative and not meaningful.

Furthermore, namecard have to be easy to keep if possible.

Audience's brain will connect & interpret both of the meaning. Moreover, they often think from something familiar to something unfamiliar or vice-versa.

Combination of 2 different elements

There's 2 lists of numbers and subjects.

Group A:
9. Flower
8. Lighting
7. Ice
6. Light
5. Fine
4. Duck
3. Dog
2. Oil
1. Leave
0. Fly

Group B:
0) Head
9) Rain
8) Wood
7) Tree
6) Spider
5) Root
4) Mountain
3) Wind
2) Rock
1) Water

Choose 3 sets of numbers from 0-99.

I choose 01, 14, 72.

Thus, I have to use "0. Fly" from Group A & "1. Water" from Group B.
__________________________________________________

1st, Create sentences from these 3 combination of random subjects.

0
1. He tried to fly but drop into water.
14. The beautiful flower can't be survived on the top of mountain.
72. The dog love to listen Rock & Roll music.

01. fly + water.
14. flower + mountain.
72. dog + Rock

MRT &Bus Rap: A Happy Journey- Phua Chu Kang

Phua Chu Kang- x A Happy Journey



Why must those educational materials be boring?

Is this interesting to educate you to be a polite bus & MRT passengers?

Is this 1 min video better than your mother's long nagging or government's speech?

Are you reluctant to hear his nagging?

I think that it can attract people too even the singer isn't a popular artist like him. The creative concept of the video is most important beginning to help us to convey our messages.

Furthermore, this media can stimulate our senses via watching and listening.
