Three students from the Department of Communication and Media Studies, Mr. Tan Kai Ling (Bachelor of Communication (Honours) in Media Studies), Ms. Cha Chun Chuan, and Ms. Michelle Tee (Bachelor of Communication (Honours) in Broadcasting), successfully participated and was selected as 8TV Campus Mandarin Newscasters for Media Prima TV Networks.

They underwent a two-day training program at Sri Pentas, Bandar Utama, where they had the opportunity to be trained by professional newscasters and TV hosts, and gained experience as newscasters in a live studio setting.

Three of our students are also working committee members of TAR Radio, a broadcast radio station under the supervision of FCCI.

The ’Drama Inside Documentary: The Chapter of Song’, produced by TAR UMT students was selected for the First Runner-up position in the College & University category at the Canon Short Film Contest 2023 and they also secured the Second Prize in the Xiamen University Malaysia’s Sixth Stellar Prize in the Best Documentary Film of the Videography category. The competitions were held on 18 November 2023 and 15 December 2023 respectively. A team of 13 students from the Bachelor of Communication (Hons) in Broadcasting worked together to produce the documentary.

The documentary was inspired by a quote from “Farewell My Concubine”, a 1993 Chinese historical drama film, which suggests that being human involves understanding and appreciating the emotional complexity of life, as seen in both real experiences and in art like theatre and film. It implies that this ability to engage with drama and emotion is a fundamental part of what it means to be human.

Wong Kai Ing, the Director of the documentary, explained: “Through the documentary, we aim to unravel the intricacies of Cantonese Opera, elucidate its historical significance and influence in the Malaysian film and cultural milieu, and engage in a profound discussion about its inheritance and challenges in contemporary society.

Kai Ing credited their mentor, Ts Wayne Ooi Swee Yaw, Deputy Dean and Lecturer in the Faculty of Communication and Creative Industries (FCCI), for providing valuable professional advice, particularly in the editing process, and guiding them through the film festival and competition submission processes.

“Studying the Bachelor of Communication (Hons) in Broadcasting has been instrumental in equipping me with the essential skills and knowledge needed to undertake the making of this film. The programme has provided me with a comprehensive understanding in the areas of communication, including media production, storytelling, and audience engagement. In particular, the broadcasting focus within the degree has honed my skills in visual storytelling, cinematography, and editing – all critical components in the filmmaking process. Courses within the programme have also covered the cultural and historical aspects of media, which is invaluable when exploring traditional Chinese drama such as Cantonese Opera. Moreover, I am also able to foster a creative and critical mindset, encouraging me to think analytically about the cultural influences on media and how to effectively communicate diverse narratives to an audience,” he explained.

His piece of advice is to follow one’s passion and persist in pursuing one’s dreams. “I have faced rejections from several festivals and competitions in the past. However, my team and I refused to give up, instead, we continued to create the content we were passionate about and embraced opportunities for improvement with each project. Persistence is key and in due time, those who are well-prepared and steadfast in their dedication will stand out and be recognised,” he enthused.

What does Merdeka mean to you? 

For some, it is a month of celebration and renewal of patriotism. For others, it is a time of reflection of the past, and to contemplate what the future holds for the next generation of Malaysians. 

It was with the aim of expressing these thoughts that Tunku Abdul Rahman University of Management and Technology embarked on the three-week long Malaysiaku Jiwaku campaign to mark its first ever Merdeka celebration as a university.

At the heart of this celebration lies the touching gesture of 10,000 fingerprints left by TAR UMT students, staff, and alumni. From the 14th to the 22nd of August, the TARCIAN community united to leave their distinct mark on boards across the campus. Each board, covered in a tapestry of colourful fingerprints, tells a unique story of dedication and aspiration for Malaysia.

But the celebration doesn't end with fingerprints alone. The Malaysiaku Jiwaku celebration also witnessed a heartwarming outpouring of creativity on social media platforms. Students, staff, and alumni embraced the digital realm to share their love and aspirations for their nation through creative, humorous and heartwarming images and short clips. This virtual avenue not only showcased the tapestry of emotions surrounding Merdeka, but also demonstrated how patriotism transcends physical boundaries. 

Among the highlights of the celebration was the Merdeka March, a spirited parade that wound its way around the campus. Led by TAR UMT's President, Prof Ir Dr Lee Sze Wei, over 100 staff and students marched across the campus waving flags, chanting Merdeka, and singing patriotic songs. The march embodied the collective heartbeat of the TARCIAN community for Malaysia, an inspiring showcase of unity, love, and hope.

“It was incredible to be a part of the Merdeka March, surrounded by fellow students and lecturers, all waving flags and chanting together. That feeling of patriotism and camaraderie was truly heartwarming”, said final year Bachelor of Public Relations student, Jarelle Jeremy Especkerman, who joined the march with his classmates. 

Instilling Patriotism through Practical Learning

One standout feature of the Malaysiaku Jiwaku celebration was TAR UMT's debut Merdeka video, titled "WAU 2023". This short video blended traditional values with modern technology, reflecting TAR UMT's 54-year legacy of educational excellence that embraces both tradition and innovation.

Produced collaboratively by students and lecturers from the Faculty of Communication and Creative Industries, the video engaged the skills of approximately 60 students and lecturers, underscoring the diverse talents within the TAR UMT community.

Lecturer Kamarul Shah bin Bakar, who co-directed the video, highlighted that "WAU" was conceived with a noble goal – to rekindle the dormant passion and patriotism residing within each Malaysian.  By leveraging the power of audiovisual storytelling, we aim to reignite the love for the nation that often lies buried beneath the routines of daily life”.

“The wau is a unique symbol of our traditions”, added co-director Kenn Yeap Thiam Hoong. The intricate designs, the cultural elements, the skills it requires to create the wau - these are testaments to the rich cultural heritage that every Malaysian be proud of. Through this video, we also wanted to highlight that we need to embrace the now, new technologies and new ideas, and to incorporate them into our traditions so that we, as a nation, can thrive.”

For students involved, the production journey offered a taste of real-world challenges and rewards, allowing them to step beyond theoretical learning into practical industry scenarios. This hands-on experience encouraged them to explore new industry facets they might not have considered before.

Reflecting on the success of the event, Prof Ir Dr Lee Sze Wei, President of TAR UMT, remarked, "The essence of Malaysiaku Jiwaku is not confined to a single day; it lives on in the hearts of every TARCIAN. The fingerprints, the social media posts, the march, the WAU video – they are all threads in the tapestry of our commitment to Malaysia's future. Through such experiential learning opportunities and activities, we hope to mould students into proficient professionals and patriotic citizens”.

TAR UMT student Sammi Low Hui Yi’s (pictured above) creative poster design successfully earned her a 3rd place finish in the 8TV 20th Anniversary Thematic Contest after the results were announced on 7 July 2023.

Encouraged to join the competition as part of an assignment, Sammi and her classmates from the Bachelor of Creative Multimedia (Hons) programme submitted their respective design concepts for the competition held by 8TV to celebrate the Malaysian-Chinese television channel’s 20th anniversary.

Participating alongside other creative students from The One Academy and the Malaysian Institute of Art, Sammi’s poster managed to attract enough votes and earned her the 3rd place finish for its bold use of colours, creative arrangement and meaningful elements.

“My concept shows the mascot flying across the galaxy and through the ‘20’ logo, symbolising 8TV’s continuous progress past its 20th anniversary milestone. The little elements comprising triangles, circles and squares represent ‘play’, ‘family gatherings’, and ‘television’ respectively, which symbolise how 8TV can bring families together for a fun-filled experience through their programmes,” explained Sammi.

Even though she did not clinch the top spot, Sammi insisted the learning experience is a more valuable prize, adding: “I was confident that my creative abilities will be able to win over the voters, but in the end, I was able to gain something by seeing the ideas and designs creative students from other institutions presented, which will inspire me for my future designs.”

“Fresh designers like me and my classmates will need experiences like this to help us temper our design skills and learn how to manage expectations with clients in a real-life setting. The balanced mix of academic knowledge and practical opportunities provided in TAR UMT certainly helps us learn effectively while pushing ourselves to test our abilities beyond the classroom,” she said.

Thang’s artwork is one of the top 50 pieces selected for the Nando’s Art Initiative Exhibition 2017 held at Publika, Kuala Lumpur, 12th September 2017.

“I would like to thank Nando’s for providing such an amazing platform for artists and designers to be involve in expressing their creative talents. This is my first time participating in such widely held art competition. I did not expect that I could reach this far. It is a good feeling to have my digital artwork displayed at such a grand occasion of the Nando’s Art Initiative Exhibition in Publika. Lastly, I would like to take this opportunity to express my gratitude to TAR University College Creative Arts lecturers because it is with their guidance and encouragement that motivates me in taking up challenges and participate in competitions and thus to continue furthering my passion in creativity,” said Thang.   

Title: After Tomorrow

Rationale: When we were young, we wish to grow up as soon and dream of achieving many great things in life. However, as grownups, we began complaining about the ruthlessness of time, as our candle lights gets dimmer by the seconds while we wish for a reversal of time. And time waits for no man, therefore we should spend each second wisely and learn to live life to the fullest by treasuring every moment the future has to offer, because who knows what the future will become after tomorrow? 

On 2nd September 2016, Nicholas Ng Hwa Ee, Malaysian ACA Champion, and Creative Arts student from the Tunku Abdul Rahman University College (TAR UC), Faculty of Social Science, Arts & Humanities (FSAH), once again made it into world finalist, awarded second place in the Adobe Certified Associate (ACA) World Championships held in Orlando, Florida on 7th August 2016.

Nicholas Ng, TAR UC-FSAH, Bachelor of Creative Multimedia (Hons) in Multimedia Design student, won silver beating 230,000 contenders worldwide. He was awarded scholarship worth US$2,500, a medal of achievement, certificate of recognition, together with Adobe Creative Cloud programme subscription.

In his winning artwork, Ng portrayed how future generations are able to express themselves creatively through arts and culture with elements containing a Malaysian twist such as the Rafflesia. "I decided to try a different approach designing this flyer as the style I chose required a lot of illustration and drawing. I spent a lot of time drawing and redrawing using Adobe Creative Cloud, especially Adobe Photoshop CC and Adobe Illustrator CC." added Ng.

'Make Creativity Bloom' is the theme for this year’s ACA Championship, participants were given 8 hours to design a digital advertising flyer for the International Child Art Foundation's (ICAF) 6th Arts Olympiad utilising tools from Adobe Creative Cloud. Judging was based on the use of creative ideas and skills as participants were assessed on their capability in applying ICAF's vision and message - equipping students for real world work task.

"I had to put myself in the shoes of the ICAF and immerse myself in the vision and messaging they wanted to epitomise. It was challenging to internalise and develop all of these in 8 hours. However, I kept my cool and did the best that I could. Winning second place was definitely the icing on top of the cake and to be able to do this in the midst of such talented individuals is truly humbling," Ng shared

What's Goin-on in My Brain

Rationale

I'm a thinker. I always think a lot - about the future, the past, and sometimes even fantasises. Flashbacks of memories happened in my mind during bed time, sometimes it can be quite tedious but other time it helps me in my design solving. This artwork of mine reveals thoughts in my brain, messy, a lot of stuff, all mixing together. Each characterised monsters portrayed were found in this mind maze that symbolises bits and parts of my fantasies and memories.
