subject through mentally, emotionally and physically. Given the scientific

psychological studies based on researches and experiments by psychologists, it

is a way to learn and improve in public relationship between people around us,

having the knowledge of different ways to social communication, especially with

At first, we held our meeting on a day which all 4 of us are free. We had our

discussion at the library. We had our brainstorm there and came out with our idea

and we started to include the psychology’s concept in to our video shooting

concept. After confirming the stories line , we started to include talking line into

the script. After adding the talking line , we checked again the story line and

finalize our script . We started our video shooting on the next day. We search

block by block for an empty classroom which is suitable for our video shooting. All

of the scene were taken at the classroom except for a scene which is Hafizi took

the scene at his own room. Hafizi was assigned to do the video editing , Kelvin

was assigned to do the report and Shaun was assigned to do the presentation

slide show.

Scene 1 :

The students were in the classroom. Mr. Shankar would like divide the student in

the group of 4 for project purpose. At the end , Kelvin , Shaun , Yvonne and Hafizi

were put in the same group after a random selection by Mr. Shankar himself.

Kelvin , Shaun and Yvonne talked very loud in the class. Hafizi thinks that

Chinese are very rude because they talked very loud in the classroom. And he

thinks that they are stupid because of their behavior.

Concept : stereotypes

Scene 2 & 3 :

They held a discussion about the project, but after they sit down together , Kelvin

and Shaun started to play Dota while Yvonne play with her phone. Soon , Hafizi

comes in. He looks interested in the games which Kelvin and Shaun were

playing. So he asked them what was the game and what was it about. Kelvin and

Shaun said the game they are playing called Dota and it was a hot game among

the youngster nowadays. At scene 3 , Hafizi went home and followed the

instruction given by Shaun and Kelvin and downloaded dota and try it on. He

think that was a fun and a nice playing game.

Concept : Observation influence

Scene 4 :

Hafizi started to mix with Kelvin and Shaun to play Dota together. One day ,

Hafizi played Dota with both of them as usual. Shaun was being surrounded by

enemy and he called for help. Kelvin was too far to save him and Hafizi just

ignored Shaun and let Shaun’s character die. Shaun was so mad and started to

be racist. Hafizi get mad and also started to be racist. Both of them went into a

verbal fight. Kelvin stopped them and asked them to continue playing their game

and have no more fighting.

Concept : Racism , Low Self Monitoring , Verbal Hostile Aggression

Scene 5 :

They held another discussion about their project again. Yvonne started to lecture

of them for being too addicted to the game until they had neglected their studies.

The three of them realize how much time they had spent on the game while they

have tons of assignment which haven’t been done yet and the final exam was

around the corner. They decided to stop playing the game and concentrate on

their work more.

Appendix

Script

After a long semester break, the FNBE July intake’s students came back to

Taylor University to continue their study as a Semester 2 student. Today was the

first Social Psychology class they are having. Their lecturer was Mr. Shankar.

In the classroom

Mr. Shankar: Hello fellow students. For your assignment, I am going to divide you

all into a group of 4 at random by calling your name.

At the end, Shaun, Kelvin, Yvonne and Hafizi were put into the same group.

Yvonne: Let’s exchange our contact numbers.

Shaun & Kelvin: OK!

Hafizi thinks in his mind.

Hafizi: These bunch of Chinese are so rude. They’re talking so loud in the class.

The whole classroom was so noisy, and they like also play online game that

much. No wonder they look so stupid.

Discussion room

The next day, they held a meeting. But none of them were discussing about the

assignment given but play their online game.

Hafizi: What you all are playing?

Shaun: Dota lah! You never play it before?! It is the most popular game among all

the youngsters man.

Kelvin: Yea man! You should try it. Here’s the website. Download it and join us.

Hafizi: Ok, I will try it.

Hafizi’s room

So Hafizi listen to Both Shaun and Kelvin. He downloaded Dota right after he get

back home.

Hafizi: Woah, they are right. This game is so fun. They should’ve told me about

this earlier.

Hafizi started to mix up with the group. He got more and more addicted to Dota.

They play Dota together almost every day and night. One day while they

were playing dota…

Somewhere around school compound

Shaun: Hey Hafizi and Kelvin! Help me! I am being raped by other team. Come

here and stun them quickly. HELP ME!!!

Kelvin: It was too far for me to save you. Hafizi is closer to you!

Hafizi: No, I am busy farming. Even if I go, I will die with you as well so it will be a

better choice that I continue farming.

Shaun die because Hafizi didn’t give him a hand.

Shaun: What the? Why can’t you just get your ass over here and help me? You

stupid Malay!

Hafizi: What did you say just now? You retarded Chinese!

Kelvin: Hey chill man. It’s just a game

Then it ended up Shaun and Hafizi get mad at each other. They ignored Kelvin

and end up cursing each other.

Discussion Room

Next day, they held another meeting for their assignment.

Yvonne: Hey guys, I think we should focus more on our assignment and exam.

The exam is around the corner and the assignment is going to due on next

Monday. You guys should not be addicted to an online game.

The 3 of them realized that he was so addicted to Dota and had neglected their

works.

Hafizi: hey guys, I think Yvonne was right. I really think that we should stop play

Dota. It has been very addicting since we started to play it.

Kelvin: I agree with you. Let’s just stop playing Dota and concentrate on our

works more.

11

Hafizi: Yea. And Shaun sorry about that day.

Shaun: It’s ok. I am the one who pick up the fight. I’m sorry too.

Yvonne: Well, if you all think that you guys are wrong, then start doing our work

but not enough with that online game already.

Then they started discussing about their work and also stop play the online game

– Dota.
