ASSIGNMENT P1A
"INFOGRAPHIC NATURE POSTER"
In this assignment, we are required to watch the documentary "Earth" (2007). After watching the documentary, we are given the task to present factual information, personal experience, observation and thoughts on (3) A3 size paper/documents.The content requires us to observe, conduct research and do our reflection on the things that we have been documenting and experiencing, and what captures the most and maybe some life-changing event from the documentary we have watched.
1) Planning and Sketching
In the first stage, this was my sketch and draft for my poster. Started of by selecting my area and proceed to select my animals. In the process, I outlined the poster with Artliner and colour the poster with colour pencils. The information, I wrote it in "architecture lettering".
2) Outcome
Poster 1
The tittle of my poster is "Kingdom of Throne". In the first poster, we can see an elephant, a lion and a gazelle. They represents the hierarchy of the animals. But we as humans trying to take away their throne by destroying their habitat.
Poster 2
In this second poster, is a drawing of an elephant with its calf in the Kalahari Desert and sandstorm at the back. This poster also shows the detailed information on the animals and its surroundings. Every information quoted online is provided its links at the back of its page.
Poster 3
In this third poster, we can see the problem faces ny the environment which is "desertification". This is due to over cultivation which leads to the size of the desert to increase. Below is how we can reduce or even avoid this issue from continuing. In the middle is a drawing of my favourite scene from the documentary. All the links that I had referred to is written at the back of the poster.
Reflection
In this assignment, we were required to produce posters based on our "EARTH" (2007). It was fun and exciting as it was the first time I discover that I can draw really well. At first it was challenging for me because I still cant get use to the method of teachings. But as time goes on, I start to get the hang of it. Its funny too to see others draw their animals. On the comment and feedback from our lecturer, Ms Reneee, I managed to complete the assignment within the time frame given to all of us. In this assignment, I managed to acquired some Taylor's Graduate Capabilities (TGC). Among them are:
