Assignment one - My Name is/LOVE/HATE




................................
i really don't understand why the colours are SO off!
SERIOUSLY. the red in spongebob is in theory, and in my portfolio DARK BLUE. WTF.

anyway, i hope the amendments i made to my work are clear enough!=D
i basically redrew the entire thing, made spongebob and patrick smaller, 
so my name would stand out.
THANK YOU ANDY for voluntarily lending me your wacom tablet!
seriously things were made so much easier, and i could hand draw and write.

used my terrible handwriting to write for spongebob, figuring that the ugliness would accurately convey my hate of spongebob and friends.

hoped the literal metaphors was clear, that spongebob was getting burned,
had a python wrapped around him, and the snake in mention was about to bite patrick and so on.

and for the phoenix, i just altered the outline a bit, made it bolder and stronger,
and made the entire name smaller, a border,
and the wings for 'L' opaque!' =)

=( gosh, but the colours..
thank goodness the colours weren't altered when i printed everything out though.
if not i would faint on the spot.

haha rushed all my changes when i realized we had to hand everything in the z drive,
and that we couldn't make further changes.
sigh, gosh i hate deadlines, but without them i wouldn't do anything.
stagnation.

OMG HOW COME THE COLOURS LOOK SO DIFFERENT WHEN I PUT THEM UP!!
ESP FOR THE TWO PHOENIX!!
no seriously it's a 500 degree change!
the colours i used were so much softer and prettier and adorable!!
they were fine when i printed them out though...-frowns- 
i wonder how come..seriously.

okay that only applies for the second phoenix though.
the first phoenix is a bit dark and angst-filled, the colours for that piece isn't showing...

i still had time before tutorial and just sort of anyhow-ed did another phoenix.
haha extra time's good. just took a while. but nah, i still like the second phoenix, which is the first i did. sentimental value!

HAHA I WAS SO TEMPTED TO PUT 'LIZ' INSTEAD OF LISA. 
=D

but FINE that'll be way too lazy of it. i was thanking my lucky stars right from the beginning that my name is simply, Lisa. four letters! 

and large jpeg files take FOREVER TO UPLOAD ZZZZZZZZZZZ.

oh and feedback from the classmates + tutor -

-nix the first phoenix,
-the colours used for the second phoenix is nice =D HOW WASTED IT CAN'T BE SEEN HERE
- THE WORST THING IS THAT THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT MY NAME.
about that i was superfied and horrified, but yeah now that i think about it, it makes sense.
i wasn't exactly keeping this whole issue of my name being clear while i was doing it.

oh well, amendments. 

haha and MY TUTOR is, how do i put it...
cuttingly nice. she isn't the sort of tutor which i thought all tutors for this mod would be.
you know, being nice, and going ' good effort.' 
she's direct, to the point, and critiques. ah but i think overall in this mod,
there's too much emphasis given to the focus of the work, 
and not to overall aesthetics.

oh and quite a few classmates picked spongebob as the design which they remembered the most, one picked the phoenix =)

that's my aim, actually.
as in, marks are one thing, but i rather much create something which people remember.

sigh. honestly, i can see myself struggling with this module in the future.
pride, and all that lol.

Assignment - MY NAME IS/ I LOVE ( part1)



My name is  Lisa and i Love Phoenix!
i actually checked and the plural of phoenix is phoenix, and not phoenixes. - GRASPS-

heh, my outline is pretty!
laugh the bad thing about me is that i do have a propensity not to change anything when i decided on it. -__-|| and i sketched a rough sketch of this in lecture,
and no matter, i'm not changing, even if i have to draw other stuff to show that i thought of other stuff.
but i think this should be fine.
they wouldnt bash it during tutorial, my classmates ain't that mean lol. i think.
