Play By Ear: Sound Design for Games | Sharon Kho, Gwen GuoJessica Tams
When it comes to working with sound designers/composers, there isn’t a one-size-fits-all way of having an effective audio pipeline; it depends on which practices suit your company working style or culture the most to bring out the best in your game. IMBA will share various project postmortems from small, bite-sized casual games to AAA titles, and discuss how you can find the best audio pipeline for your team.

Face recognition is a widely used biometric approach. Face recognition technology has developed rapidly
in recent years and it is more direct, user friendly and convenient compared to other methods. But face
recognition systems are vulnerable to spoof attacks made by non-real faces. It is an easy way to spoof face
recognition systems by facial pictures such as portrait photographs. A secure system needs Liveness
detection in order to guard against such spoofing. In this work, face liveness detection approaches are
categorized based on the various types techniques used for liveness detection. This categorization helps
understanding different spoof attacks scenarios and their relation to the developed solutions. A review of
the latest works regarding face liveness detection works is presented. The main aim is to provide a simple
path for the future development of novel and more secured face liveness detection approach.
Humans often use faces to recognize individuals, and advancements in computing capability over the past few decades now enable similar recognitions automatically. Early facial recognition algorithms used simple geometric models, but the recognition process has now matured into a science of sophisticated mathematical representations and matching processes. Major advancements and initiatives in the past 10 to 15 years have propelled facial recognition technology into the spotlight. Facial recognition can be used for both verification and identification.

I'm going to use both my laptop, iPad and Android mobile phone to create music improvisation cooperation. While each device takes in different role, the main common development depends on Processing open source library for visual sketching and audio filtering production. Features of each devices are described as follow:
- Desktop focus on rhythm and take use of mouse dragging and keyboard. User interface will be friendly and indicates the rhythm or key pressedvia animation feedback.
- iPad (or iPhone)will focus more on graphics due to high performance of browser with Javascript support. Touch events are main part of iPad and audio filtering will be involved to enhance audio effect.
- Android mobile phone is going to have an instruction activity with Material Design card view with some open source projects involved. Action bar will have the main entrance of performance which takes use of accelerometer and touch event to have both audio and graphic interaction.

Transforming Brand Perception and Boosting Profitabilityaaryangarg12
In today's digital era, the dynamics of brand perception, consumer behavior, and profitability have been profoundly reshaped by the synergy of branding, social media, and website design. This research paper investigates the transformative power of these elements in influencing how individuals perceive brands and products and how this transformation can be harnessed to drive sales and profitability for businesses.
Through an exploration of brand psychology and consumer behavior, this study sheds light on the intricate ways in which effective branding strategies, strategic social media engagement, and user-centric website design contribute to altering consumers' perceptions. We delve into the principles that underlie successful brand transformations, examining how visual identity, messaging, and storytelling can captivate and resonate with target audiences.
Methodologically, this research employs a comprehensive approach, combining qualitative and quantitative analyses. Real-world case studies illustrate the impact of branding, social media campaigns, and website redesigns on consumer perception, sales figures, and profitability. We assess the various metrics, including brand awareness, customer engagement, conversion rates, and revenue growth, to measure the effectiveness of these strategies.
The results underscore the pivotal role of cohesive branding, social media influence, and website usability in shaping positive brand perceptions, influencing consumer decisions, and ultimately bolstering sales and profitability. This paper provides actionable insights and strategic recommendations for businesses seeking to leverage branding, social media, and website design as potent tools to enhance their market position and financial success.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
