Someone's Portrait...

Just a quick sketch for yah, cheers!!

"Analogous" Component Types (1st Task in Degree Sem2)

Typography again... Using the digital templates , grids and fills provided to develop these letterforms into a basic proposal specimen as an outcome, the purpose to test the design ideas by configuration of simple contextually appropriate headlines, titles or phrases.

In this project, i decided to play with the shuffle method for my design concept, which means to cut and re-arrange the original picture i use until i got all the alphabet A to Z, however, i been through few steps to get my final outcome, which is using the grid system, edit and take out some unnecessary part and so on. My concept font is called "Jabbawockeez" since i use the picture of it (photo of my own performance which taken during University's Masquerade Party). Jabbawockeez is originally a hip-hop dance crew which attended and performed in America's Got Talent, all of the dancers are masked, they looks mysterious in a way. Whatever it is, that's the concept that i am trying to blend in for my concept font, it portray energetic, naughty, and mysterious, beside that it also symbolized a Jabbawockeez dancer.

Here's the final outcome of the Uppercase and Lowercase, together with the headline that i create based on the original headline i found from the net, just try to use my concept font to play and to create the headline to see whether it practical to read... Well, it is readable...

Sample of headline (beware of JABBAWOCKEEZ)

That's all i want to share for now, was kinda pressure during the class critic session, but anyway, i am happy with the feedback i got from lecturer and classmates. Dear viewer, thanks for viewing and DO correct me if i am wrong. =)

Pesta Raja-Raja 2009@Kuching Waterfront and our Decorated Boat (Kapal Berhias)

So far this is the biggest project i ever had in my life for HARWOOD TIMBER company for the festival called Pesta Raja-Raja 2009, its challenging, interesting and risky, because all of us are trying our best to work smart within the budget given by the company, and the duration of time is 6 days... 6 days to complete everything. But we are enjoy working together under hot sun, and now i got sunburn!!

The Process
The designs is printed out on tapoline(the material that advertising company usually use for the banner, bunting or billboard printing) In order to make the design more striking, we apply artistic touch on it, touch up everything, highlight and remove some unnecessary part.

Artistic touch on Rafflesia

The Rugged Artistic Hornbill head, we called it "Burung Kenyalang Jantan" (the male hornbill) hahaha...

The full body of the boat, an artistic Hornbill figure and Sarawak traditional motif design together with the wording "Sarawak Maju Dalam Malaysia".

At the Site, Zecon (under Bintawa Bridge)
Its very hot when working over there, no shelther and no toilet, the boat we using is a fishing boat, the captain is friendly, will find one day go to sea fishing with him and his gang. By the way... The adventure is just started, the designers, the carpentry and the electrical team are doing well in thier own part.

Cutting the wood, hurting fingers and cramped my hands.

The carpentry people from RTM at work, they are very concentrating when they do thier work.

Constructing the design on the boat... Man... its very dangerous without the crane.
But we made it!!
Unfortunately, the crane is busy with other bussiness on the 1st two days, and our working process is very slow when comparing to others, everything is carry by hands!!

The carpentry are making sure that the wood structure is strong enough to support the huge design and also make sure everything is stable.

There... its me touching up the neck of hornbill.

One-sided completed

Rudy, one of the carpentry, friendly person, he likes to fool around with hokkien, muhahahahha...

Finally, the crane from Feima Advertising is here, and the working process is getting fast.
