F2D Project3: Ego

Inspiration

I get inspiration from some images on printest. For this image I got inspiration from traditional Chinese architecture expecially Gugong in Beijing.

For this image I got inspiration from porker and Japanese toy.

Explanation

My first series of images are me+making decision=confused. Because I am a undecide person. It is difficult for me to make decison. That’s why I create this.

My second series of images are me+see elephant in the dark room= turn on the light. Elephant in the dark room usually means people avoid and not to solve some problem because of some reason. But I hope to be a problem solver. Initial the elephant was in the dark room. So I turn on the light to let everyone see the elephant.

My third series of images are me+imbalance= balance. In daily we always need to balance things. For example, students might need to balance between study and play. Hence I tried to show the importance of balance here.

My fourth series if images are me+atmosphere=affected. Because everyone will be infulenced by the environment they are in and the atmosphere they feel. I use poker to show “porker face” and use the color of black and white,to show me without influenced. Then I use color in the second and third image to show that me was affected.

F2D project 2: Forrest Gump

My movie quote is from the movie The Chorus, the movie is about how a music teacher influenced his “bad student” with love and music.

Initially I wanted to use the quote ” Those flying paper planes are our respect for you.” However, I realized that paper plane is not going to create good effect for visual image. So I decided to change the quote to “Education is not only to knowledge, love is the fruit.” There are two key words in this quote: “Education” and “fruit”.

In this image, I use “birds” to signify “students”. “fruit” from the movie signifies “love”. Birds flying around fruit tree signifies students’ eagerness to get love from teacher.

The image is inspired from the second half the quote ” love is the fruit”, so it shows a love tree/ fruit tree.

From the movie, the teacher is a music teacher. So we can see a man playing cello in this image. But he is not palying a “cello” but a “pear”. Remember the quote” love is the fruit”. It signifies the teacher is not only sharing knowledge (music), but sharing love (fruit).

The lady (imagine her as a teacher) has a serious face in this image. But inside her head (mind), there are fruits (love).
