DSDN111: Project 7🖐🏻✌🏻 “Don’t be ordinary, be Extraordinary”✊🏼 For this project it is required that I stage a motto which resonates with me and then surround it with things part of or from my world. Here’s my starter!

Experiment 9 & 10 Part 1

I was still stuck on whether to keep the traits I've chosen of to do something else. I was torn between a more serious model and a playful one and so I decided to try doing playful and excitable for this one and see if I liked the outcome or not. I made a sort of paint brush like model with string attached to the ends of it.

I used a straw to pull the string through the holes and the wood is left over from a project from DSDN111.

I got my friend to hold the model for my videos and to dip it into paint and use it as it is supposed to be.

After our PBA we started exploring different cultures that are relative to us, and drawing elements from each of them whether it be colour, texture, font or something else.

I started thinking more about what culture defines me that is also relative to my demographic of First Year Design Students. I have narrowed it down to skating culture, and electronic music culture. 

This is a poster for an electronic music group which inspired me. I am drawn to the use of font and colours in this poster. The illustration an fonts complement each other well, and I am interested in working out a way to incorporate something that feels as smooth as this in my poster.

Here is a link to my Pinterest board with my inspiration:

Experiment 7 Part 2

I began creating the model, 3D printing a cylinder to be the solid part. I didnt want to make my shape too complicated because I was learning to 3D print for the first time and I was working on multiple projects at once so I could not afford any mistakes.

After I printed it I needed to get rid of the supports and the raft and I realised that I chose supports that were way too strong and so it was really difficult to take off, I needed to put it into a table clamp to keep it in place so that I could apply more force.

I carved gold foam that I had left over from DSDN111 to create the adapting section of the design and made 3 of them. I then put one into a jello mold for casting.

Clever use of books and stop motion paper.Just cool to watch. Narrator is reading from 'Going West' by Maurice Gee.

DSDN111  - ASSIGNMENT 1

INFORMATION AESTHETICS

My principles of design were symmetry and dynamics. I used a combination of sharp angles, points and aesthetic features

to communicate these principles. Lighting was used to emphasise the dynamic and symmetrical properties of the form and to 

make it feel fast, sexy and functional.
