WEEK 8 - 11 : EXPERIMENTATION ON MEDIA (OVERLAPPING TECHNIQUE ON MARKER)


 We had started with task 3 trial on A3 size marker paper. I was unsure on how to start as it was not very easy to dio the overlapping technique on markers as some markers doesn't go well with this technique. But with Mr. JR's guidance I was able to figure out a way to tackle it. 



Figure 1 
This is the fashion editorial that I had chosen for my task 3.


Figure 2
I had started with the top part but wasn't really a fan of it as I couldn't find the right color combination that goes with the editorial.

Then I tried mixing a few color combinations into it and came up with these shades. I was satisfied with the outcome, but the overlapping technique was quite obvious, so I am still figuring out on how to correct it. 


Figure 4
 Passed the trial and was given permission to continue with the final submission on A3 marker paper. 



I had started on my final submission on the next week. I blended 3 colors together to get the different shades of purple. Going in a one-way direction in order to create an even overlapping technique. 



This is the final submission. I had added more shadows by using cool grey to make it look more realistic and finished. The shadows helped to bring out my design especially the jacket. The 'foldings' on the jacket required much touch-ups to create a finished look to it.

 INTERCULTURAL DESIGN ACADEMIC BLOG Project 1: PROPOSAL On our first class leture for intercultural design, we held an online meeting. We were roughly briefed on our programme structure and  the Module Information Booklet (MIB). We were given the task to create a proposal revolving on the theme of "Cultural Sensitivity in Design". This is a very general theme which could be covered in different aspects. However, as we were divided into teams of 6 members that were given the opportuinity to carry out this study in Japan. Hence, our design topic had to be cultural sensitivity specified in Japan. Without wasting any time, we had a meeting outside our class and brainstormed ideas. These are the 3 main ideas that we had come up with:  1. Tattoo Culture in Japan 2. Torii Gates 3. Yami Kawaii Aesthetic.  Tattoo Japan is well known for its symbolism and the legends that surround its unique forms, which include dragons, chrysanthemums, and cherry blossoms. These symbols are frequently

  During our first week of Introduction to Pattern Drafting and Garment Making, we dived right into exercises. Before the class started, we were briefed on the importance of pattern drafting. Then, Ms. Melina had gone through with us on how to properly use the sewing machines and it's many functions. Figure 1 Ms. Melina is explaining to us on how to thread the machine and bobbin. Figure 2 Figure 3 I tried to thread the machine according to Ms. Melina's instructions. Figure 4 After learning how to thread the machine, we began to start our first sewing exercises. The first exercises include straight stitch, curve and corner line.  Figure 5  Before. Figure 6 The straight stitches were easy to go about as it was just a straight line going down.  Figure 7 As for the corners, I had some struggles with the sewing machine as it was too fast and I could not control it properly. Hence, I sewed the curves really slowly and took my time to get the right circle. After. Next, we did a plain
