Project 1 Week 2 : Collage Design
WEEK 2 : Physical Collage
We were introduced to Physical Collage in week 2, focusing on
composition and layering. We also learn about third rule, using
big, medium, and small magezine cut outs. Our tasks for the week were to make 3 composition with our
physical collage. He explained about the golden ratio and also the focal point for
our collage, and for the future.
During self-directed learning we are taught important points, namely
photography. We have to master this point well. Focal Point :
an element that attracts attention because it is more dramatic than
other elements. The focal point does not have to be a wall with darker
paint or a more striking color than the other walls.
after that, the next important point is the rule of
thirds. The rule of thirds in photography is a guideline that places the
subjects in the left or right third of an image, leaving the other
two thirds more open.It divides a photo into nine equal parts, split by two equally
spaced horizontal and vertical lines.
Then we have the golden ratio. The golden ratio, also known as the golden number, golden proportion or the
divine proportion, is a ratio between two numbers that equals
approximately 1.618. Usually written as the Greek letter phi, it is strongly associated
with the Fibonacci sequence, a series of numbers wherein each number is
added to the last.
In photography we also have to master 3 element sizes, namely large,
medium, and small. This is important to get the right composition.
INSTRUCTION
PROJECT 1 / Exercise 2 – Physical Collage
Week 2 : Process
The first thing I did was determine the concept and
reference idea. At that time I wanted my collage to have a
sad theme and a gloomy background.
After that I looked for pictures from magazines that had a
sad or blue theme.I use magazines from Uniqlo. I think this magazine is
suitable to help me in making collages.
Then I cut out the picture that i want to used and starting
arranging the picture into different compositions.
Week 2 : Composition
Then I composed 3 different collages. I like every composed that I
made. They have each other meaning and story, suits the theme that I
have been planing on.
first composition
for the first composition, I initially had the idea to make the main
element look sad and crying in the clouds, like visualizing rain. I
then added other elements to help support that.
Second Composition
For the second composition I want to play my element telling that he
is being influenced by someone, so that makes him feel confused and
has a lot of thoughts. But all is just a dream from the other side
element.
Third Composition
For composition 3 I want to tell about the past and the future.
So all elements that are related to time I include, so that they
can support the story.
FEEDBACK
Week 2
In this week, we received feed back from Mr.Fauzi he
said that My composition is good but there is something
lacking so he said I had to add more photos so that my
collage could show an expression of the existing
story, but overall my composition is good.
