:: S's sharing( : ::

phew, i have been a long time never blog about what i am doing recently, kinda feel like i have lost my orientation of 4w1h-design. When i am designing a thing, 4wh1 was the first thing came into my mind. They are: what should i, which should i, who should i, when should i and how should i.

So, now is the third week of my second semester, some assignments were briefed, and i started to do some researches on video productions and environment design( ass again, lol~ ).

In the mean time, i also got a freelance job from my kakak @ ex-classmate from TarCollege( : Kakak asked me to customize her friends into cartoon potrait, so for me it is kinda easy to draw, i dont think that will waste my time and money, neither( :

here, i want to share my cartoonized portrait and wish to get some feedback from whoever read my blog~( :

and this is kakak's friends,

my sketches, kakak asked my to draw them into some kinda partner,

so, i drew it became...

after that, i traced my sketches into an A4 paper, adjust the figure nicely, composition and blabla~

and, lastly.. i will update my illustrate cartoon potrait in this coming friday~ *paiseh, heheXD*

SIXTH LESSON :: Random Word/ Image Association ::

Random Word- Kitten

Situation- Create "Scary Images or Object" that will instill fear among people through out the ages.


The picture above is my drawing of a kitten with different words. Anticlockwise from the top is bloody face, think whiskers, irregular shape and bright colors.

Association of the four words:

1. Bloody face: make it terrible and violent as well.

2. Thick whickers: make it unusual.

3. Irregular shape: to bring up the term of wreak.

4. Bright colors: Evil and yet unique.

In practise What might is mean?

When we combine these elements togather, it formed a scary kitten and looks lascivious as well.

:: Analogy Excercise ::

Love is like a chilli, full with passion.

It's taste kill human's thinking.

It's seeds bring innocent lifes.

Life is like the light of a candle.

It is exhauting to stay alive by itself.

Yet, it learn a lot from it too.

Man is like a mortar and pastel.

Strong and reliable.

generous and lovable.

:: JUXTAPOSITION ll ::

My understanding from this lesson is,

Juxtaposition of analogy can be divided into two, which is : Metaphor and Similies.

Metaphor is a figure of speech.

The example of metaphor statement and similies statement is,

Metaphor : Life is a box of chocolate, you will never know what you will get!

Similies : Life is like a maze in which you try to avoid the exit.

From the two examples above, the differences between them is, metaphor statement never add 'like' or 'as', but similies statement.

In the analogy itself, it has logical analogies and affective analogies.

From the fifth slide of "Lesson 5.4 Juxtaposition" powerpoint,

Logical analogies is analogies, which use similarities in the design or function to connect back the subject. For example, the whale and submarine, both of them can dive into the depth of the sea, and yet they still need to surface for air.

Affective analogies is the emotional resemblance. For example, he is like a pig ( because he is lazy ), she is like an ant ( because she is hardworking ).

Before end, i wish to show a picture, u might guess what kind of analogy they have applied on it. A train and a woman, as shown in the photo, how your brain works on this?

Well, what you think on this picture is what i think

and,

this is a picture of "Metaphor". ( please highlight to see the answer :)
