Exercises

Task 1 : attended the general brief and reviewed all the lecture videos and slides regarding the Design Principles, which include: Gestalt theory, Contrast, Emphasis, Balance, Repetition, Movement, Harmony and Unity, Symbol, Word and Image.

I chose Repetition, Movment, Empahasis, Contrast and Word and Image . 

1. Repetition

the principle of repetition simply means the reusing of the same or similar elements throughout your design.

I took the picture from Pintrest "https://www.pinterest.com/pin/427419820866502471/?nic_v3=1a76LEWhy" .
The birds Inspired me to do the digital artwork so i used the original image and created a similar one.

The origianl artwark and this picture as a screenshot from my post on social media . 
Photoshop Layers

Final Outcome


I did the the design on photoshop and added a text saying "Delhi Belly" behind the subject thats me in the center.
As per feedback I tried adjusting my subject to the letter L to show the the text more but when I transform the image it's affecting the propotion.

All the original works are uploaded on this Drive link for further properties,

Feedback

week 2 : I was not able to attend the class because I was't feeling well.

week 3 : I was done with only 4 designs and was told to update my blog since it didnt have the major contents like the inspiration, referance and final outcome, my blog wasn't ready until then. All the designs I did was on photoshop so I had to show the proof for the design Layers. Fore movement i was adviced the design principle didnt make quiet sense and the text " moon Pimples " for emphasis I was advised to change the main focal lenth of the text.

Week 4 : My Blog was still unorganised but I udated the reference and original image, but had to provide more information on the original picture since most of them were taken by myself as small projects. My fourth Design was done the word and Image In which i was adviced to make the text behind the subject more obvious as in making the letter ' L ' in Delhi the subject.

Sonic Design: Final Project

Hisham Rasheed / 0356691 / BDCM Sonic Design Final project: Game audio Task For this project, we are tasked with selecting one of five gameplay videos and creating our own sounds to sync with the video. Every interactive and background element in the video must be audible. The sounds cannot be taken from elsewhere; they must be created by me.  Audio list and storyboard  Fig 1.1 Chosen video: Hollow Nights Fig 1.2 Audio List I chose a 1-minute gameplay video called Hollow Knight because it appears to be the most captivating to me.
