Key Artwork
For the first project, we are tasked to design a key artwork for the article that we previously worked on for the typographic system exercise. This project acquires us to design a logo(?) that reflects the title of the event we chose.
Mine is "All Ripped Up: Punk Influence on Design" so I imagine it to be grafitti-like most of all.
Fig 1.1 (warm-up)

Fig 1.2 (more umph??? in the typeface)

Fig 1.3 (i kinda like this one)

Fig 1.4 (bg colour so it's not hella empty)

FEEDBACKS

19.05.2020 (Week 6)
General feedback:
  • The artwork has to look like a logo to some degree
  • Use appropriate typeface and maybe embed visuals that complements the work
  • Be mindful of spaces, the artwork has to look like a unit
  • Work with black n white
  • Produce more than one work/idea
  • In this particular project, the typography IS the visual
  • Sketch first, then arrange the elements, identify the ideas, then develop them
Specific feedback:
  • Look up anarchy
  • They like the spikes on the 'P' :)
  • Change the typeface
  • Punk is more like cut-up things/collage-y
  • Use elements related to punk
  • Punk ain't just about music

02.06.2020 (Week 8)
General feedback:
  • Test out key artworks on other people to confirm readability
Specific feedback:
  • Use a real picture of a pin
  • Place "All Ripped Up" normally
  • Don't put background
  • Make the pins look more real
  • The paper tear can be better
  • If shit still don't work kill yourself

REFLECTION

Experience: Baaaaaaaaad experience. Dunno how I'm gonna do the collateral

Observation: Actually pretty much everyone was struggling with this project

Findings: This particular project, and the one coming after this, would be the main reason of my bad result if I were to fail this subject

FINAL PROJECT 11.11.2019 Week 12 - Cultural Relationship For this project, I decided to "express" Malaysia's culture through it's traditional clothing. Malaysia is mostly populated with three main races - Malay, Chinese, and Indian. All these three races have their own traditional clothes, of course. I want to try combining all three clothings - for both female and male - into one to depict that these three races is what makes Malaysia.  So I took the highlighted parts and just mash them up. So it's basically a baju kurung and baju melayu with cheongsam and changshan designs, topped with saree's drape and dhoti's scarf. These are things (stereotypically) essential in each three culture's festivals: - Ketupat (Malays) - Chinese Lantern - Rangoli decorations (Indian) (Final work) I wanted to combine the three traditional clothings of the three main races in Malaysia - Malay, Chinese, and Indian - for

Game Art: Exercise

 GAME ART 01.09.2023 (Week 1) - 08.12.2023 (Week 14) Maisarah bt Muhd Zamri Game Art Exercise  It is advised that we download "Brawl Stars" (mobile game) and play it as we are going to base our designs on the game.  Fig 1.1 (Character draft - ideation/headshots) Fig 1.2 (Character draft - action pose) Fig 1.3 (Character outfit ideation) Artstyle is inconsistent. Decide on an artstyle (whether it be chibi or not) Worry about outfits later; focus on developing the characters first. More variety in the occupation (not just pirate themed) Initial plan was to design 5 pirate themed characters with different occupations (captain, navigator, marksman, etc) but apparently "pirate" is one thing. So I gotta come up with different, separate occupation/job/profession for different characters.  Fig 2 - Character design For the Mafia character: maybe exclude the cigar. For the Artillery character: he should've been tank.  Add more variety of body types -- rn they're al
