Advertising Festival Awards 2016

This was truly a night to remember (but it has already been a little over a month or so, so my daya peringatan is kinda weak right now so.. 😂 but I'll try) and it'll be such a shame and waste if I don't blog about it, albeit late. Apart from taking photos prior and during the event, I didn't contribute much tbh but just the fact that I was a part of it - a part of those who made AFA possible - I'm already contented enough to be given such an opportunity. Alhamdulillah. And props definitely goes to my lecturer, Madam Nadiah, for advising us and obviously my hardworking and enthusiastic classmates who wanted nothing more but a smooth and successful event. Let us all give them a standing ovation hehe. 

It took us nearly three months for preparations and stuff and boy it was not an easy journey, really. I can't remember the number of times we switched the theme and had our posters amended because of different opinions and views, etc etc. Well, judging by the photos I squeezed in along in this post, obviously AFA 2016's theme was fixed to "Superhero". Ya, don't cringe! Haha. When we first broke the news, literally everyone was skeptical about the theme because they were wondering if they really /need/ to dress according to it.. *sides eyes* Anywho, *ok nak riak sikit hehe* our superhero-themed event garnered a lot of attention from both lecturers and students alike. Even those from other sequences (PR, Journalism, Publishing, Broadcasting, etc) puji-ed us for our creative design for buntings/posters/banners and even said they would like to attend to the event like how cool is that?! Ke kita orang je yang syok sendiri? LOL I hope not haha.

What worried us the most about the event is if we didn't live up to people's expectation. We were afraid if AFA would turn out to be a flop because the amount of interests and expectations that people had on us was indeed overwhelming. Amboi. But Alhamdulillah, we got nothing but praises from those who attended! Although there was a slight problem but hey, nobody's perfect, therefore, event pun cannot really be 100% perfect jugak am I rite?!? Hehe. Ok la end of coretan I'll let the photos I took speak for themselves (dengan bantuan caption yang tertera di bawah gambar) :D

In retrospect, the event went exactly like how we wanted it to be and I have come to a decision that I'm not fit to be a reporter I mean what sort of a journalist forgets people's names and what awards did they win etc? SMH.
