TUTORIAL
We had a consultation hours. I showed and explained to Mr Fauzi my concept and the idea behind my sketches and mood board.
Here was my Week 12 Progress:
Fig 1.3: Biography (9/11/2021) |
I wrote about myself, my passion, dreams and what motivates me to achieve them. This helped me summarize information about myself and choose the parts I want to showcase in a creative way in my final work.
Fig 1.4: Statement about the work (9/11/2021) |
In this one, I explored more about what I wanted my work to be about. In summary, it was about being this hero version of myself that isn't much different from myself. Its a message to myself and the audience that you don't need to be someone else to be better, you already have the capabilities to do it. You are already a hero / main character in your own video game / story. Main themes would be self-acceptance and self-love.
MOOD BOARD

Fig 1.6: Mood Board #2 (9/11/2021) |
In Mood board #1, I basically looked at the graphical elements and style I wanted to have that expresses my own style and my personality. I love doodles and I love fun typography.
For Moodboard #2, I was looking at poses and compositions I could do for the final work because I would want to have a fun pose and interesting composition to make my idea clear and easy to understand.
Mr Fauzi says that I have a good design direction and that I should try to work on a design thats more of like a magazine style design.
SKETCHES
Some sketches that I did that I wasn't very proud of but help in choosing the direction I wanted to do for the final design.
PRACTICAL
No practical today since some of us when to campus to do the photo shoot for the final project.
