Draft for Assignment 5in [ Assignment 5 ]
This was what I presented in class. I had much problems in thinking of what to create for this one as the topic is quite open ended and there is a limitation as I don’t have much resources/photos to tap on. Initially, I wanted to draw a map of asia and draw mini-icons of the landmarks on the map. After that I thought it was too tedious and too touristy – which was what Ms Jing did not want. It is difficult to think of something that is unconventional and not touristy.
I don’t really think it is very original work as I just used the faces of movie stars online – Red Cliff, some Japanese manga and Slumdog Millionaire. The Japanese manga character is definitely out as it is a direct trace of the vector artwork. The other two probably needs re-tracing. However, I wanted to create a movie poster as I thought it is quite unique and is something that I am passionate about. Besides, Asia has quite a few well-known movies and stars.
Some of the comments from the class is that there needs to be a balance of male and female characters. Another thing is that maybe I should use another idea instead of this? Also “Coming Soon” can be changed to “Now Showing”.
Interesting but unless I know the stars and that the title is there I don’t know if this is for Asia’s showbiz?
hmm good point…let me think..
