Final Reflection

Experience:

I learned a lot from this module during the whole 14 weeks of study. First of all, my ability to do visual research has improved. At the beginning of this module, I didn't understand the importance of doing visual research and always treated it as a necessary process to do and didn't deal with it seriously. But now I know that doing visual research seriously will help a lot in designing afterward. In addition, after this module, my ability to operate the software has improved a lot, and I have had many opportunities to explore new techniques for using the software to accomplish my tasks, so I am now more familiar with the software.
 
Observation:

In this module, I observed that we learned more about how to combine typography with images, or how to create a design from our own typefaces, and we were able to touch and learn more about the combination of text and images than we did in the first semester with text layout. For example, in Task 1 we were asked to create the type from images, and in Task 2 we were also creating key artwork. It was interesting for me to do more work with images, and through this semester I will be more interested and sensitive to the typography around me in the future.

Findings:

During these 14 weeks of study, I realized that typography is really an element that appears in everyone's daily life, but most of the time we don't even notice it. Before this, when I was still in my first semester, I thought typography was boring, just some words and letters that wouldn't make any big changes or creativity. But after doing task 3, I realized that typography is actually fun and can be very creative, which is more challenging when we need to follow the principles and rules of typography, but at the same time come up with something creative.

It draws inspiration from the ancient Chinese classic Shan Hai Jing (The Classic of Mountains and Seas) and incorporates elements of Tibetan culture to create a unique and educational narrative. The project includes the development of character designs, creature concepts, and environment visuals, blending ancient mythology and cultural heritage with a focus on storytelling that resonates with young audiences. Sketch The main character (the boy) is based on a character designed for a comic assignment in the Semester 1 IVN class. The other creatures are inspired by Shan Hai Jing , with their designs developed after studying the original text and referencing online sources. Fig1. Character Body Size Sketch (The Boy) Fig2.

31/8/2023-7/12/2023 (week1-week15) Ng Jia Xien (0355062) Vehicle and Props Design Instruction  Week2(Public Holiday) Week 3 Deconstruction exercise  During week 1, we were supposed to complete the deconstruction exercise, which is using shape to block out the vehicles and try to understand the mechanism and structure. I did start that exercise but still couldn't complete it before the week 3 submission, so Mr. Kannan allowed me to extend the submission deadline to week 4, and I did finish on time. We were also asked to do research on different terrain vehicles (sea, land, air), we could come out with the idea of vehicles based on movies/games/ animation and others. So I decided to use the same IP with my environment art, which is the animation "Spirited Away". After creating my mood board, I started to do my sketch. I try to do it quickly as Mr. Kannan said we shouldn't waste t...
