For all the 4 equation, the lips are tetrad 2. I want the lips to have a good sense of contrast with the background but not too big of a different.
As for the background, I make use of the clock hands to create a path to have a contrasting colors. For this, I uses complementary colors for all 4 equation.
Reflection
Throughout the whole project, I was very lost in the style that I want to use. As seen in my process, I wanted to go for digital collage which I was inspired from Julien Pacaud, however the use of colors for collage is challenging and I still can’t have a good control of it. Thus I abandon that idea and went on to research more on the different style I can use. The whole process of finding the style I want to go for is tough. If I can’t decide on a style, I can’t start my project at all. As I further research, I chance upon pop art where the use of color there is very strong. Finally, I know where my project is leaning towards and I start on my composition.
To have a better direction of what my project is going towards, I came out with a narrative to it. I titled my project “Me at this time”. Where I want to portray my life staying in hall and attending class. It’s basically a day in my life. At certain time of the day what am I doing. With this in mind, I have a better idea of composing my design and what element to add in my project.
Although when I first received the project brief, I was like this is going to be challenging as we will be touching on colors and it’s definitely not something I am strong at. Throughout the whole project, although at some point of time I was stuck, I am still glad that I finally find a direction that I want and completed this project. I was pleased with the outcome and thankful for all the feedback I received from Mimi and friends.
