Project 1
Task
For this project, we were required to sketch 8 different sketches to show the different forms of sketching and rendering. Our sketches include body parts/figures/nature, object projection, geometric projection, a city, one and two point perspectives in Taylor's University campus, details of Taylor's University and a traced sketch of a photo of a building.
The sketches:-

Reflection
The intended learning outcomes for this assignment were to recognise potential creativity, self-expression and visual awareness. The objectives of this assignment was to identify the fundamental principles, elements and techniques in sketching, drawing, design process and presentation skills as well as identify a personal and expressive response to visual stimulation and to apply basic principles and elements of design and drawing as a language to visualise and to communicate ideas.
This project allowed me to improve my sketching and rendering techniques and helped me visualize ideas and put them on paper. The sketches helped me to improve my ability to draw what ever I see to scale and proportionate. It also stimulated my creativity in order to get a suitable perspective and imagine my own city.
Project 2
Task
This project was divided into two parts; Project 2A and Project 2B. For Project 2A, we had to produce proper orthographic drawings and apply basic drawing conventions and representations. Each group was was given a site to measure, observe, and present in drawing form for presentation purposes. For our group, our site was the Breakout Space at Block E, Level 5. Project 2B required us to produce bubble diagrams and a diagrammatic analysis of the site. We had to prepare 10-15 pieces of A3 papers to present our research and findings based on this:
- Location plan
- Site Context
- Natural & Man-made physical features
- Circulation
- Utilities
- Sensory Perception
- Culture and Human Activities
- Climate
- SWOT

Case Study
Reflection
The learning outcomes intended for this project is to demonstrate observation and visualisation skills in a variety of ways depending on the area of specialisation being pursued with an emphasis on the process of drawing and develop confidence to use drawings to express two dimensional and three dimensional ideas. Besides that, it also taught us to manipulate the variety of media and techniques to visualise ideas leading to a finish product.
Project 3
Task
From the site in Project 2, we were to conduct a site analysis consisting of a location plan, a site context, size and zoning of site, natural and man-made features located around the site, circulation, utilities, sensory perception, human culture and activities, climate and SWOT analysis. And then, individually, we had to prepare a case study for a proposal on a wall installation for the following final project.

Case study
Reflection
The intended learning outcomes were to demonstrate observation and visualisation skills in a different ways with an emphasis on the process of drawing as well as being able to record, organize, interpret and describe a variety of issues through visual communication effectively using different medias and techniques that leads to a final product.
From this assignment, my group and I were able to communicate effectively and improve our observation and data collecting skills as well as thinking in a creative yet critical manner. The case study had helped to inspire me ideas for my wall installation to be used in the final project.
Final Project
Task
The project was divided into two parts: Part A and Part B. For Part A, we were required to document and present our ideas and processes of design and presented to the lecturer for approval. In Part B, after all design had been approved by lecturers, we were to produce a presentation board with our ideas and proposals on it and presented to guest lecturers.

Reflection
Through this final assignment, I was able to use my creativity and technical drawing skills on a variety of medias as well as enhance my presentation skills. Tutorial sessions by the lecturers had helped me in the process of design and the outcome of the design.
1.There should be one page of introduction of the course and profile of your self.
ReplyDelete2. weak but acceptable reflections.. but there's room for improvement.
3. Lack annotations and information under the images.
4. Missing Information about the Journal exercise and compilation plus the Hard copy portfolio.
5. Lack information about your final project such as why you design it that way.. and why this and that about your layout etc.
