Tutorial Exercise
Project 1
Movie Title
A movie poster is basically a glimpse into what the movie is about and therefore it is important to make it reflect the movie as much as possible. The best way to do this is to recreate the main storyline the movie revolves around on the poster. Capturing the essence of the movie in the poster is essential as it dictates all of the design choices you’ll be making
Movie Title : Foster Parent
Theme : Horror, Dark, Fiction, Helpless.
Colour Scheme : Monochromatic colours mostly for the backgrounds and sub elements, some bright colours to bring out the main subject.
This monochromatic artwork portrayed an unspoken deep feeling from me. The only thing painted with colours is me, I’m the person held by the fingers’ of evil while pointing weakly towards the heart that was removed from my body to be ‘served’ on a plate. Other than that were coloured monochrome to show contrast, as if every other creatures are unmerciful.
It strongly reflects every moment of me wanting to give my all, care, trust, affection and love, by means the best quality i possess. Unfortunately, in this unforgiving world, my output are not being appreciated, instead being taken advantaged by greed, lies, fake, hurtful in returns, illustrated by the knife deeply cutting into my heart and fork cruelly stabbing. At that moment, the whole of me merely wants to get back my heart and never to trust, which this can be seen in the artwork, a man pointing towards the hearts.

Finishing & Presentation
Reflection
The biggest hurdle this semester was for me to participating in the online learning as it had never happened to me before, it tend to be confusing to adjust as I had not been prepared through simulations or practices beforehand. I also found that online learning to be even more stressful than regular classrooms classes. Fortunately, I have Ms Illia to guide me all the way, she was extremely kind and always willing to help. Therefore, it eases the barrier between tutor and students, she not only gives us useful advices but also put in good amount of effort to set the learning pathway way for us.
This module has provided variety exercises and assignments for us to explore on different medium and style. assignment given is useful and somehow linked to each other. During this module, I can say I have improved a lot in my technical drawing skills and also learnt new technique.
Lastly, I will carry forward the knowledge that I possessed from this module and learn from my mistakes that I have made and try not to repeat.
