Graphic Design Week of Jan 21 - 27

On January 21, I continued my project collage by adding more pictures and editing out parts that didn't fit. My end product is:



On January 24, my Design 101 class looked at all the collages and made comments on each other's works. Not all were given feedback, but as for my project, many stated that it is good, but it needed more direction and message. The collage is supposed to have a message of the interest or culture we were doing, which I didn't do on my first iteration of the collage. As a result, I redid my project but with the same interest.

The message that I'm trying to get across is that Japanese Animations usually start off as a Manga, or Japanese comic. Since it is Japanese Animation, I used the map of Japan and inside are Japanese mangas, which means that's what Animes are made up or they're the backbone. Then on the outside, the map of Japan is surrounded by Animes. The hand represents drawing the mangas, which was suggested by one of my classmates in the Design class.

The work is still on the process but here's the outcome so far:



I want to make the map of Japan stand out more and probably rearrange some of the animes.

Total Hours of Work: 8
Total Hours with Design 101 Class + Work: 17
