LECTURE
7 Principles of Poster Design
  • Emphasis : the focal point of a design and the order of importance of each element within a design
  • Balance and Alignment : one of the fundamental principles of design
  • Contrast : creates space and difference between elements in the design. The background and elements needs to be different colours so they work harmoniously together and are readable 
  • Repetition : repetition unifies and strengthens a design
  • Proportion : visual size and weight of elements in a composition and how the relate to each other
  • Movement : controlling the elements in a composition so that the eye is led to move from one to the next and the information in properly communicated
  • White Space : the empty page around the elements in the composition

TASK
For this task, we were asked to make a conceptual photo manipulation. Conceptual photo manipulation is basically combining 2 photos of object into 1 photo or 1 new object. First I started by looking up references on different platforms. I found some good references on Instagram. Here is the mood board.

After looking up the references, I came up with 3 ideas for this project
  1. Oreo + watch : I want to create a cookie watch because the colours are similar and I thought the idea will be pretty cute

  2. Fork + Paintbrush : I want to create a 2 sided thing that is inspired by dual sided makeup brush that I found

  3. Hairbrush + Hairdryer: I want to create something similar to the second idea but with a different purpose and different items.

At first I wanted to make the third idea but instead of a hairdryer I used a spoon, but Mr Fauzi said to use a hairdryer instead to make a more unique and odd object. Then I came up with the sketches from the photos that I took of the objects. Here are the photos and the sketches.

FEEDBACK
Change the idea for the last sketch into a hairdryer and a hairbrush

REFLECTION
The first part of this task was still pretty easy because we only needed to look up references and make the rough sketches only. Though, deciding on what to make was pretty difficult because I don't have much stuff that I can combine, I still managed to come up with some ideas.
