2D II Foundation, G1, (AY2015/16 Sem 2)

With my layout more or less finalised, I did a test print at home to check my font size and the placement of pictures and text.

Even with my printer, i was very surprised how well the grayscale version of the test print turned out. Now i feel like printing a grayscale version too.

The test print as very useful as i Read more →

After finding the correct text that could fit with my picture, I planned for my zine per brief says with 12 pages.

For my cover, i wanted a cut out of a circle which reveals part of the content on the second page.

I also had text that i thought it would fit very well as the start of my book. I Read more →

For this last project I decided to do an entirely new piece because I felt that I wanted to explore more ideas. Inspired by my previous ‘Depression‘ (click to view OSS post about it) piece from my Point of View project, I decided to do on imaginary lines. This topic was something I suddenly thought about and was Read more →

Having said that, I am going to include only the POV “masterpieces” for the zine because I feel it is way better than the other projects Read more →

I used 3D software Blender to create and edit 3D models (I used a standard male figure model by Ben Houston as its too time-consuming to create a [perfect] model and edit from there). I also used a pixel sorting software called drift.

Here’s a screenshot of one of my Read more →

For this project I’m trying to do something more digital (less time consuming to do, too). Been looking up zines but none of them is something that I really want to do. So I look up various glitch art as research:

THEME

Personal Fears that are seemingly rational (or are they really)

Tailored to an individual’s personality and disposition

Lines –

Fear from the point of view of a casanova is to fall in love/lose his heart

Fear from the point of view of a performer is stage fright/to be eaten alive by his audience
