DAY1 SEP17 DO/UNDO/REDO
Day summary:
In this project,we have to ‘mix’ items together to make clothes.
Reflection
Purpose
Our group want to do about ‘no gender stereotype’,using flowers,fabric,plastic to show how beautiful we are.
Plastic bags seems like garbages that we can see everyday, we put plastic bags in the works,we want to show that we don’t need to shy or affraid of showing our body.We can be sexy ,fearless,enthusiastic and don’t be trapped in gender stereotype,so we using colorful fabric for materials.
Making clothe or styling is difficult for me,while I’m better at photograph.(my partner is better at styling)
I brought some plastic bags, rope and bubble wrap to for styling. I had drew the idea yesterday while I didn't used it(why?first:my idea is have to take of the shirt, but my model are shy about it .second: I found out I'm not really good at making things, and I can't really do all the thing very fast, its hard for me to make my idea into 3D, so even have a good idea on my sketch book, I can't really make it real.)
I had explore new idea to do my work(the one that can let me easy to make), so I have try to do best in my photography skill.
This project let me find out I’m interest in photographing,too.(not only in illustration anymore)And I found out I might interested in fashion, too.(somting like art director, fashion photography etc...)
After
To develop, I had make the image like an”continue action ”(series) . The series is about a girl want to escape from the beauty(or escape from the power that people can't see)
DAY2 SEP 18 SAY IT LOUD
Day summery
Texting to people I do not know and discuss what we afraid of.
What I’m afraid of
- No freedom
- Alone
- Flying Insects
- Communication or conversation
What she afraid of
- Alone
- Insects
I had done a poster at first and I don’t like it(Actually no one like it).Graphic design should be big and could seen by everyone,the poster I made was very small it couldn’t be seen very well.I didn’t ask for any feed back from teacher cause I know what I done today isn’t will enough,so I had asked my classmates and friends for the suggestion.
what we had discussed
- big
- easy to understand
- what I want to do is about ‘lonely’
- in public (underground)
After I rethink about the project,I had deside to do with garbage bags.
Purpose
people throw things’ that they don’t need ‘into garbage bag everyday, but people forget garbages we thrown was important for use before.
I wrote some sentences on the garbage that is about afraid of being alone and being abandoned .I had put the garbages in the tube station and trash can,the purpose I want to show is don’t forget the people who help you before ,and being grateful.
After
If the work only put in the bin , it will be hard for every one to see it.so I have developed my work, I had wrote down lots of text on the garbage bags and but them in public(hanging in the class room, stick on the window, put on the chair which in the underground station and on the bus etc...)
After that I had wrote down some text(the conversation that people talk every day ), make the image fell more lonely and sad.
DAY3 SEP20 LOST LETTERS
Day summery
I got an O in this project.Doing illustrating ,cutting and printing are very interesting.
My work is about a human lost in the forest that meet 3 monster cats inside the cave( O ).
Lots of people think my work is cute(cats people, I guess). But I think it isn’t good enough.My work is beautiful but not"interesting”，I want my work become graphicly but not story book.
I have see some works that made by my classmates and they are very well!(especily the one with lots of O) I’t just like poster.
I didn't find any difficult in this course, I think I'm good at it.but printing isn't the thing that I want to do.
I’m really enjoy with printing and illustration,I don’t really feel tired in this project( I found out that I’m good at doing details, and I have patient with it);while I think I should work harder for my “idea”.
After
Made the stop motion is interesting but I have to say its tough.cut down all the paper and made it into an animation, I want to make it into an interesting story. While after all I proud of myself finish the stop motion.
