Design & Illustration

Here comes the revival of the whitepaperclip , brought back from the dead.

Although most readers would have migrated, here’s a heads up onto why it has been revived.

I’m currently in the second semester of my 2nd year in Singapore Polytechnic, pursuing in the media and communications  course. Along the way I have decided to take my concentrations in Advertising and Public Relations and so, I’v to take this module called, Design and Illustration, as one of my electives.

In comparison to the other electives, TVSM[TV studio Management] and UCCD[cross cultural studies] I think DI has got to be the best. Maybe it’s just because of the interest in well, design in general.

So it’s going to be me, the blog and DI for about 10 or more posts and we’ll see how it goes from there.

Lesson 1

Pigs Pigs and more Pigs.

Well after a round(s) of introduction, we were split into different animal tribes. I got the pig haha, was grouped along with Ming Jie and Vanessa.

Task number 1- observe and sketch our animal.
Then let it be critic-ed by our fellow tribesmen.

The ears are horribly difficult to be sketched to look nice. It looks so normal in the coloured picture, but ABnormal  in our sketches. =.= . Ms Nga gave us some tips on sketching at the beginning, like how to work with just normal shapes first, then slowly adding and subtracting to give it the end result.

My pig grew after lunch and had to be purposely ’slimmed’ down to fit in the page. But it was a rather nice first lesson and the rest, I hope would just keep getting better.
