Ler Xin Jie
final
year project.
KOSSIP 口加口非 is founded by a group of 6 students, with each of us handling the different roles in the team. In partnership with Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre (SCCC) and Rickshaw Coffee, KOSSIP 口加口非 aims to increase the awareness of our Chinese culture and the traditional local kopi (coffee) culture in a trendy way.
As the main video editor and designer of the team, I am in charged of editing and designing our pre-event and event related works, as well as our iBook. Throughout this journey as a video editor and designer, I have definitely learned various skills, explored the different concepts and most importantly, learning to accept feedbacks from others. It wasn't easy having to edit multiple drafts but I have to say that if it wasn't for this opportunity, I would not have had the chance to improve and learn new skills. (scroll down to find out more about the videos I have edited, as well as the various works I have designed!)
We were also given the chance to go on a 2 week trip to Taiwan, Taipei, where we interviewed the locals there, gaining insights to the Taiwanese's perspective on coffee. (Link to interview experience: https://xinjieler.wixsite.com/taiwan2019/interviews)
Throughout this 8 months project, from conceptualising to planning and executing, I was able to work with people from all walks of lives, be it my project mates or our partners and vendors. I have learned a lot from them and I would have to say that it was a fruitful journey!

《KOSSIP口加口非》 EVENT.
With the 4 days event held at SCCC, around 1000 participants came down to our event. Participants were able to experience how to brew coffee in the traditional and modernised way, reminisce their childhood as they play the traditional games (such as tikam tikam, pick up sticks, 5 stones and many more!) while eating some traditional snacks. The highlight of our event was the Augmented Reality (AR) game, where participants get to play a game to learn more about Ben (partner from Rickshaw Coffee) as well as coffee. (head down to our event interview video to find out more about our event!)
