WEEK4

So today we were supposed to bring photos that narrated the story and the thumbnails that we formed in the last class.

I had created the narrative of train as a journey through the time of our lives. Starting from the time we get into the train till the time we get down at our destination. How sometimes we get immense happiness when the train is empty and how at the same time we get irritated and angry when the train is crowded. And how different stations show different opportunities. And the different kind of people come in the train the kind of nature and attitude they have. And how the final destination where we want to get down shows the goal of our life. All this I have tried to portray through these images. Also I have used colours to show various emotions. These are the images that I took:

I also took some pictures and pre-edited them and the took their pictures as the final image. I painted some butter papers and the stuck them to my pictures to show the emotions that I wanted to show through the pictures. These are some of the images that I have pre-edited:

WEEK3

So today we were supposed to bring the 8 to 10 sketches of our narrative that we had made for showing passage of time. But I was struggling to form a narrative but I had an idea in mind of relating train with this concept.

I took train as a journey through the time of our lives and constructed a narrative. Like from the beginning of my journey from the start of the station and the end after getting down from the train.

I tried to make some sketches for my narrative and also I used colours to show various emotions of the journey. Here are the thumbnails:

WEEK5

So we were supposed to bring a survey of three families regarding our own group topics. And then we had to take a overall result of all 12 families as a team. After that ma’am asked us to take a survey of 6 people in the college itself.

So all of the teams formed about 8 to 10 questions and went on to do the survey. After we all were back, one by one all the groups asked all the questions related to their survey topics and then all the others had to write down the answers in a paper and give it to that group.

This way all of us were done with the question and answer round by the end of our class.

My groups topic was “Dairy Industry” and the questions that we formed were:

  1. WHAT ALL KINDS OF DAIRY PRODUCTS DO YOU USE?
  2. HOW MUCH CONSUMPTION?(DAY/MONTH)
  3. WHERE DOES IT COME FROM?
  4. DO YOU CHECK THE EXPIRY DATE BEFORE BUYING THE PRODUCT?
  5. HAVE YOU EVER TAKEN MILK FROM A MILKMAN?
  6. IF YES, THEN DO YOU FIND AMNY DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE MILK FROM THE MILKMAN AND STORE PRODUCTS?
  7. WHAT WOULD TOU PREFER?(BRAND/QUALITY)
  8. WHAT KIND OF MILK AND CHEESE DO YOU PREFER?(COW/BUFFALO)(SLICE/CUBE)
  9. ARE YOU LACTOSE INTOLERANT? IF YES THEN WHAT ALTERNATIVE DO YOU INTAKE?)

So today sir had asked us to bring text heavy books, and gateway sheets. Once we begin with the class sir asked us to trace some layouts from the book that we had brought that we found interesting. It could have been the starting page or the contents, etc.

Some of us had brought novels, magazines, etc. So I first traced on out of the novel that I got and then one I took from the magazine.

I got to know about how different books have different layouts according to its theme or the type it is like novel or magazine. This is what I traced:

Design Drawing

31st August 2018

WEEK6

Today we had class on perspectives which is a very important topic in drawing. Perspective Drawing is a technique used by artists and designers to represent three-dimensional images on a two-dimensional picture plane.

There are three types of perspective in drawing; one point perspective, two point perspective, and three point perspective, a bird’s eye view, and a worm’s eye view.

So we had to do perspective drawing today and draw buildings and other surroundings around us in any type of the perspective.
