The HP Mentorship Project has come to an end where 11 Malaysian mentees collaborate with Zee Avi, Daniel Veerapen, and Edwin Raj to released a slew of NFT collection. The mentees comprised of creative youths from different backgrounds that produced art and music together under the guidance of their mentors and powered by cutting-edge laptops provided by HP Malaysia.
The project saw HP Malaysia officially releasing three audiovisual experiences in the form of NFTs and 100 exclusive collectible NFTs that will be available for viewing and purchase on the new CryptoArt platform NFT Pangolin. Half of the proceeds from all sales will be going towards Kakiseni, an organization that empowers creative expression in all Malaysians, with the other half of proceeds going towards the mentees to further propel them on their creative journey.
Three different ethereal and dreamy tracks were written, performed, and produced by the singer/songwriter mentees in collaboration with the music production mentees. Finalizing these as NFTs, the tracks were accompanied by the cutesy animations of Noodie, the adorably colorful nudibranch developed and produced by the digital arts mentees.
“The mentors and I came together to inspire the next generation of Malaysian creators. We put our heads together and collaborated with the goal of letting the mentees express their creativity through using HP’s technology and laptops,” said Zee Avi, Malaysian pop singer and singing/songwriting mentor. “As mentors, we strived to provide our mentees with the knowledge and the expertise we’ve gained throughout our years of working in the industry. Our excellent mentees always gave 110%, and we’re proud to see the amazing work they’ve produced with each other under our guidance. We can’t wait to see the amazing things they will do next as technology continues to enable their creativity.”
