Reflection:

Personally, I have learned so much about animation and have a found new respect towards animators as I realised it was harder than it looks like. However, I found it hard to submit the projects as it took too much of my time considering I am not a design school student, I do not know how to draw or use digital softwares. It took a lot of time trying to fix my mistakes. The exercises was easier to submit on time. I just wished that the projects were a little easier as I was struggling to submit my work and correct my mistakes on time as I had other modules to do as well. The hardest project for me was the action animation as it took too much time that I could not find to fix the problems I had initially.

Illustration & Visual Narrative: Project 2 (MyTIGER Values Art Competition 2023) For Project 2, we had to enter a competition under Maybank titled 'MyTIGER Values Art Competition 2023', which is also a requirement. The theme for this competition was designing an illustrative art under 12 Sustainable Development Goals (Figure 1.1). Figure 1.1: 12 Sustainable Development Goals by Maybank Ms. Anis told us to research on the topics that we find interesting by using Google, Pinterest, even ChatGPT to gain an understanding of the whole topic first before we brainstorm on ideas. We could find references and inspirations on Pinterest or Google and start drafting our designs. I decided to pick Life below water (11th SDG) to be my topic and found some posters regarding the topic. I had an idea of having a plastic bag filled with trash that leaks into the water that kills the aquatic animals while a boat would have two people holding the plastic bag (Figure 1.2). Figure 1.2: Draft of ...

Illustration & Visual Narrative: Exercise 2 (Illustrative Typography)

Illustration & Visual Narrative: Exercise 2 (Illustrative Typography) Using a Pictionary generator, we would generate two words that would help illustrate the said words into typography. I had words that were really really tough to put it together such as meteor and frying pan. I kept generating until I found a pair that I could see myself designing and got seaweed and stingray (Figure 1.1).  Figure 1.1: Pictionary Generator Drafting Process: I started to draft my stingray and seaweed. Initially, I wanted a body of a stingray with the words inside the outline with seaweed filling up the spaces (Figure 1.2). As I fill the colours in, I realised it looked much more creative if the words were made by seaweed (Figure 1.3). Figure 1.2: Initial Draft  Figure 1.3: Seaweed Stingray Draft After showing Ms. Anis my work, she said that there were too much seaweed and she didn't like the design. We talked about a stingray inspired by Moana. She helped me create a new design which I th...
