 Assignment 6 : Brochure 


For this assignment , we were assigned to work in pairs to create a brochure layout using newspaper and magazine cutting together with hand drawn elements .  My group mate is Hoi Jun .  At first we decided to choose car as our topic but we noticed theres not much magazine and newspaper we can find about cars so we changed our topic to food .

We went to the student life centre and took some brochure , flyer , booklets , newspaper and magazine back to our POD classroom and start searching anything that related to our topics .








We cut them out and stick it to an A4 size paper



We choose green color as color theme because instead of using white color we can use something other than that color to attract people .  Food picture with color also can attract people instead of black and white picture .  Actually the reason why we used so colored picture is to make it eye catching . 

Assignment 5 : Paper Cutout


For this assignment , we need to create 2 different artworks (A4) using paper cutout and collage technique. It can be any color we wish but 1 should be represent balance & symmetry and the other artwork should be dominance, weight and space . 





This artwork which is the superman logo represent balance & symmetry . I cut this logo as my paper cutout because superman is one of my favorite hero and his logo just suited the topic perfect . This is why I chose superman logo as one of my paper cut out



This is my another artwork represent dominance , weight and space . I used red ,yellow and green because i want to make it like a sunset view but   Green , red and yellow represent freedom .

Assignment 4 : Grid 

After we have learnt how to identify the grid used in newspaper and designing our own layout using hierarchy . We are asked to use a single topic and the same images to create 2 variation of golden ratio grid , baseline grid and lastly the column grid.  


         This is me looking through what we are supposed to do for the assignment in one of the restaurant


                                                  This is the work i have printed it out


                                                         Lastly , the finished work.

Basically , I did my work using microsoft words because its easier to do all the grid work. After that i printed it out and pasted it into 3 A3 size mounting board . The reason why i posted my golden ratio grid , column grid  and not my baseline grid because i have done it wrongly . In my golden ratio grid and column grid work , I have not put any gutter to create a space  . This is also a big mistake done by me .
