LECTURES

This week is Final Project Consultation Week. Mr. Fauzi gave us four videos to watch as a case study. Below are the links for the four videos.



PROJECT 4 PROGRESS

Mood board and Sketch

In this task, we needed to choose three posters for Moodboard that reflect our concept. Mr. Fauzi immediately helped us with the vetting process and gave us helpful advice on which posters would work best for the job. I chose these posters on Pinterest because they fit the overall style and atmosphere I wanted to convey in my project. They also inspired me to create sketches that will be the basis for further design.

I chose three posters that I liked and I can follow them as inspiration.  My poster idea is to inspire others to create what they dream of. In my postor I wanted to show what is in my head . As for my personal motto, it is “The light of my mind”. This phrase symbolizes the inner light that illuminates my path, guides me to my goals and helps me turn my dreams into reality.This poster is meant to inspire people to not be afraid to follow their desires and to remind them that the path to a dream can be as exciting and vivid as the dream itself.

This phrase symbolizes the inner light that illuminates my path, guides me to my goals and helps me turn my dreams into reality.

SKETCHES

First, I started sketching to work through the different ideas for the poster. After that, I proceeded to fill in the necessary sections in Google Slides. My idea for the poster is to inspire others to create whatever they dream of.

After that, I switch to digital work and start creating a poster in Adobe Photoshop to finally realize my concept digitally.
I continue to do this in Adobe Photoshop, starting with “Self Portrait.” I use the Select Subject tool and the Mask tool. With the Refine Edge Brush Tool, outline my hair. 

Later, I took my photo and cropped it to create the illusion that I was sitting in a car. This allowed us to add a realistic effect and make the picture more interesting.

I continue to add elements that I have taken to my project. I added a car and trimmed myself making it so I drive a car . On the animation I would like to make the car drive and the wheels spin .

REFLECTIONS


Experience - This week I refreshed and expanded on my previous knowledge and learned new techniques for working with images, especially in the use of white strokes. I am more confident working in Adobe Photoshop, and I realized that it gets easier with each assignment. This week did not seem challenging and I felt that progress was evident.

Observations - if colors that are too bright don't harmonize with each other, it can distract from the main idea. In such cases I strive for balance to maintain the atmosphere and purpose of the image.

Findings - I realized that it is possible to complete a job efficiently in a few hours if you allocate time properly and follow a plan. I'm happy with the result and glad to be able to see my progress. I hope that I can maintain the same productivity in the coming weeks and continue to improve my skills.
