Week 4 - Montage it Poster

In this poster, I want to emphasize the process of my photomontage by showing how the concept model can be transform into a realistic building by using photoshop.

Week 3 - Final Submission - Flipbook + 2 Photomontages

Participating in this workshop has provided me with the opportunity to apply skills and techniques I've developed over the 4 weeks of this workshop. The tasks and criterias are different and new to me
I appreciated the freedom I was given by this workshop to experiment beyond pen and paper or rather, the 2 dimensions.I have learnt many new things in this workshop in terms of photoshop skills, it also has certainly opened my mind to new concepts and presentation ideas i never had before.

Week 2 - Experimenting with Photoshop/Photomontage

This is the first time i have experienced with photoshop. I found it really hard to make the model looks realistic with the background. By watching tutorials on internet and friend's help, i have learnt alot of skills in photoshop including learning new tools, how layers works etc. This task has helped me enormously with my final photomontages.

Week 1 - Concept Model

Week 5 - Draw It Poster

Week 4 - Final Presentation (Rendering Set + Architectural Set)

This workshop proved to be very useful in terms of developing my drawing skills and learning about line weights and hierarchies, page setups and understanding plans, sections and elevations. 

Particularly in this workshop, I have learnt that linework is the most important feature in architectural drawings. I rather challenged at first by the precision required for rescailing the planes that we were given, into something larger, and to out tasks purpose, with more relavant features. I also found that the rendering of  shadow is rather difficult as I have never viewed and drawn shadow before. Overall, I would consider this workhop very important because being able to draw well architecturally is an important way of communicating to others, your design of an architectural space.

Week 3 - Perspective + Experiment Rendering

This exercise is an introduction on how we should present perspective drawings of our selected house and what style we could incorporate into the drawing so that it could communicate the idea.

This was my first experience with rendering and it was a struggle. I experimented different kind of media including colourpencils, watercolour pencils, pen, ink and pencil. I found that using black and white media (pen, ink and pencil) are the most effective for me so I used those medias for my final presentation.
