DesignSingapore scholar Ms Sheryl Yap Sze Ling, 20, will pursue a Bachelor’ degree in Entertainment Design at Art Center College of Design, California, USA.
My final-year diploma project The Art of The Quest of Chloe. I wanted to tell a story dear to my heart: issues confronting the adolescent such as growing up and self-actualisation. The project takes the form of a conceptual art book. I designed and executed the elements in the book, such as props, character development and settings. It was a challenge that eventually opened many doors for me, including the opportunity to study at Art Center College of Design.
The Singapore’s public transport operator SBS Transit, which manages a large part of Singapore’s bus system. The company operates many different bus routes and bus services. All are interlinked with one another, making travelling around Singapore easy and convenient for everyone.
I hope to join Lucasfilm. I hope to create stories that can be exported internationally so as to develop and contribute to the exponential growth of Singapore’s entertainment design industry.
