Assignment 6 Final Work

Final work of the infographics. I've added some text to tell the readers what is going on at each stage. The water dam was also shifted more to the central region of each picture. The 2D house that was being criticized during the class presentation was also changed to a 3D one.

Overall did some shifting here and there to accommodate the new texts that were added. Other than that, the rest pretty much remains the same..

Major changes for this final work. Firstly, some of the pictures of the political figures were changed. As I have to make them all into black silhouette figures, I'll need to make use of pictures that after alteration, are still recognisable.

This is crucial as being recognisable is important for me to convey the message across my target buyers. If they can't really see who the people are, then it will defeat the purpose of the postcard.

Once again, I had gone for the brown background. This colour is appropriate to signify the large land mass of the Asian continent. Green border signifies vegetation, probably around the Southeast Asian region. Unnecessary words were also removed to reduce the clutter in the postcard. The back of the postcard remains unchanged..

Replaced some of the texts by changing the font. I've traced the Singapore map and incorporated it with 3 different colours - white, yellow, red. The high speed tunnel on the laptop screen is oso traced and incorporated it with blue and white. This is to have some originality in my work. The rest of the poster remains unchanged.

Nothing much is changed except that I've added some little balloons with pictures on story picture number 3. This will make the story much clearer as people will know why do I need to traffic drugs.

Nothing is changed for this assignment. Only difference is the picture of the ATM. I've taken a new one with better lighting and contrast.

Assignment 1 Final Work

This is the final work for assignment 1. Enlarged the sizes of the jumping track and stone so as to bring more focus to them, thus making the "WAI" look more distinct. Kangaroo is jumping now rather than juz standing stationary in the prototype. This enhances the dynamic-ness of the whole picture. Finally, added a colourful background to show that my life, though not really smooth sailing, is still a good and colourful one..

=====================================



Last assignment of this short semester!! This time round it's an easier assignment in a way that it's more straight forward, it's more of a test of my ability of drawing rather than idea and creativity.

Infographics on how things work, there can be really alot alot of examples. During class, the lecturer showed us some of her works on infographics. They are about plate tectonics, tsunami, volcano n stuffs in a secondary school Geography textbook. Nice really, drawing natural formations with the right colours and conveying the right message is not easy.

Since Geography is my favourite subject, I plough through my old geo textbook in secondary school and see what ideas can I get from there. I need something which is easy to convey and easy to draw. I chanced upon the Clean Energy section mentioning about Solar Power, Wind Power and Hydroelectric Power(HEP)..

Alright, everyone's talking about Global Warming and reducing carbon footprint, then this shall be my selected topic. However, solar and wind power is a tad bit too easy to draw and there's nothing much to say, so I chose the HEP. Searched through the net to get my ideas on how to draw it effectively - clean and uncomplicated.



An infographics i got online
Something that is real

A more complicated and detailed infographics

Another real water dam

My drawing on the HEP after referencing to online materials

Not too complicated, easily understandable, clean and straight forward. I've achieved my aims, and I'm lucky it's not too hard to draw!! Spent around 5hours or so..

Feedbacks were good, except that I'll need more words to decribe the whole process and my house will be better to be 3D rather than 2D. Ok, that is all that need to be changed. Phew~!!





This is the work of Qiu Xun, who is a Science student and he drew an infographics on Manufacture of Nuclear Fission Bomb!! Haha!! That's like so unique la.. There are also other interesting works like formation of acne, NEWater making, flea market setting, make up procedure etc etc..

OK, now, I'll need to get down to work. Fine tune all my work and organise my portfolio. One last hurdle to cross.
