Week 5th: 2st - Glasses

http://www.crobike.de/en/werbemittel_bilder/promopeddler/10800/21877.jpg


I wanna talk about glasses because this is the week I have known that I'm short-sighted now.
Wearing glasses make me feel not very comfortable anyway, but I have to wear otherwise things will become more blur later.
When I chose glasses at the shop, didn't know what kind of mood can suit me, finally I chose the black out and white in one.
But if there is one of this one in Vietnam, I will properly try.
I think this can be designed for masquerade because it make people hard to recognize when you wear it. I love the way it designed, it is glasses, but it is not only glasses, it's also mask.

Week 5th: 1st - Piano

http://www.rodscustomfiberglass.com/images/piano.jpg

Being loved to play piano, I have just finished listening to my friend's piano song which is composed by himself, and I found that the grand piano in his house really really make me addict, so I go to the web and looking for some beautiful one, then oh my god, I found this one.
Well, in public area, unusual design, but I don't think it is designed for non-chinese people.
It makes sense for chinese if it has a shape of a pig because this year is the "pig year".
But even if I have a chance, I will never play on this piano although I'm a chinese. It makes me look like pig. And also, there are not enough notes as the usual one.

Week 4th: 2nd - Dating Idea


Think about Dating, I think about love, I think about red, purple.
Simply idea, so simply done in Web Programming course.
I tend to use dark color because it gives people the warm, private feeling when they come and register for a date instead so many others dating websites use bright color which may let people feel "oh my god, I want to seek partner, but don't tell anybody, ok". Yeah, because bright is spread, and dark is smallize.

Week 4th: 1st - Sound




In life, not everyone else's life, but my life, the thing that I love to absorb is not the thing I see, but is the sound I hear.
Views are actually going to my brain when I see.
But for Sounds, I just do nothing, and Sounds, especially Opera, always go directly to my ears, my body, my heart, my soul. And the only one thing that I can react the feeling when I absorb from Sounds is that I really want to be that Sound element, fly and join those "note" friends (because Sound is a Note, and those Notes make a song. Opera song, always fly into my soul warmly, slowly, sweetly. "Phantom Of The Opera", a film, but really, even if I watch it again without open my eyes, I can still love the film.
Technical:
Using brush tool only to make the background, I swear.

Week 3rd: 2nd - Stealing

Everything happening always has its cause and effect.
Number always starts with 0 and ends with 9.
Stealing does not mean stealing, but means empty, because we always consider the reason and effect and yes, we now, after being stolen, are empty.
Stealing is just a way to put something must be full here to somewhere else.
But the result, poor owners because owner is now empty.
So, empty pepsi poca snake pack represents all about stealing.
But stealing is right or wrong, it only can depends on everyone's mind. There is no in the image.
Do you think that steal someone's thing, or make him becomes empty and you become full, is good? And most of us know the empty feeling, so we know "stealing is wrong".

Week 3rd: 1st - Sex Life of...

A for fun version after class studying about aligning, colors, fonts, white space combination.
Theme colors: yellow, wood, orange, red, and black.
Font: with only one font family but different font members.
The body color gives the meaning of... of course, plants.
A little straight at the left gives a creative feeling instead of too bored, too solid if there is absolute one color background at the back. Don't know why I prefer unbalance things.

Week 2nd: 2st - Laziness


Idea:
Dont know why do i have to play games?
Games seem to be a very important organ in my body.
I cannot stop gaming, but I always try my best on study anytime.
My mind is fullfilled now, i'm thinking about the courses, but i'm also thinking about games.
So the image, i tent to put pattern at back as background and the two balanced words are actually saying to me that "hey, go to study now - hey, game is waiting for you".
Technical:
Played with brush tool, i love brush tool because this is the tool that I can draw anything, anywhere. Just think, and draw what you think.
Obviously, black and white to make contrast and gradient to make balance.

Week 2nd: 1st - Student Diary


During a pretty free weekend because of the beginning of the semester, I've spent some time to play with the student diary design for school and yes, for fun.
Idea:
When first thought of studying at RMIT, I've recalled my time that before coming to RMIT to study. I was lost and felt very bad when I failed the Vietnamese University test.
I looked down and saw all the dirty sand, there was nothing except that.
But after joining the RMIT's Community. I felt happy, really happy because I know I can learn new things, things that I think the Vietnamese university wont have.
RMIT gives me the best, the newest, the biggest knowledge.
I'm walking up on a very bright royal stair to the success.
Technical:
Carefully select and cut the RMIT University logo with feather so that it looks smooth and will not affect the background.
Simply used the "gradient tool" and "bas releif" function to make the background.
Applied "lens flare" function to make the bright light on top of the stair.
Drawn the sand with brush tool. And a strong font for the text with a soft color spread underneath to make contrast.
Just for fun.
