Third Assignment

This was the in-class assignment that we have to do. To capture a 'freezing point' that tells a story. I have decided to draw a girl, seating back facing the viewer, as if she is typing or drawing something on the board. Like the example Mr Reddy gave in class, ( the man behind the door), the picture i drew creates a suspense among viewers, as they wonder what is the girl doing.

The picture tells a story, and yet, it allows the viewers to run their own imagination on what the girl is doing.

My drawings - storyboard


After getting feedbacks from the class, i decided to cut the story short.
1. Late night
2. a girl walking home, with some footsteps following behind
3. she quickly make a phone call
4. a hand came grabbing her
5. she turn and scream
6. a guy returning her, her lost purse

creating a suspense helps to bring in the atmosphere of 'danger'
it allows the viewers to participate in thought, what will be the ending?

Second Assignment - losing it's details

here's the in class draft i have came out with.

we have to come out with a realistic illustration of an object ( usually easy to recognise)
and then, we can start to minus all the details, adn reduce it to a point where it's still a represtation of the certain object, but not to the point of abstraction.

this was the in class illustration of both ( indexic and iconic):



as for my assignment 2, i have choosen duck as my image:


hence, here's the images i ahve come out with


thus, i have chosen the 5th image as the representation of a duck.
the 6th image is way off an abstraction, and perhaps, it might give the viewers a different meaning to it. hence, i've choosen the 5th image, because it's still a representation of a duck.

First Assignment - i like /i hate

Here's a few draft that i came out with:

for things that i hate, i came out with four drafts ( on animals)


for animals, i have choosen to use shadows / silhouette because black gives off a 'dislike' feeling, which i think its good to use it in this case. I have came out with a list of ' i hate ____' and i think animals would be easier for me to form alphabets.


For things that i like, i came out with the idea of 'sport



I have chose to use different forms of pictures related to sports, rather than using just human figure as a form of representation. I have choosen the 3rd picture as my final draft because it's unique and it will show my passion and love for sports, as i will be playing with colors for the final draft itself.


here's my final draft for the pictures i chose
Here's the final draft that i have came out with. But after the class consulation, i realise that using colors for ' i hate animals' will perhaps give readers a wrong impression that i like it because of its colors, and vice-verse for the 'i love exercise' pictures.

hence, i have came out with the following


the feedback i got was that the monkey didn't really look like one, and the dolphine is perhaps
alittle too 'stiff'. i will work on my final piece then.
for the exercising draft, most people are fine with it. ( with the thought that my drawing didn't work really well here), but i will play with the colors then, to make it more vibrant and interesting.
