PRACTICAL
Prior to this class, we were told to gather materials beforehand. I didn't have any magazines and I didn't want to buy one just for the sake for this project. But, I do have some product packaging such as cereal boxes and snack wrappers.
We were also told to take take three photos of our collage pre-composition to be submitted.
PRE-COMPOSITION #1
(Please note the pen and eraser are not part of the composition and only to hold the material down)
 |
| Fig 1.2 Pre-Composition #1, Week 2 (5.9.2022) |
Description: I started out by arranging the pieces to make a scene of a monster attacking a town.
PRE-COMPOSITION #2
 |
| Fig 1.3 Pre-Composition #2, Week 2 (5.9.2022) |
Description: I'm thinking of letting the man be a focal point by removing most of the layers.
PRE-COMPOSTION #3
 |
| Fig 1.4 Pre-Composition #3, Week 2 (5.9.2022) |
Description: I've flipped the man upside down so that he's been captured by the monster. I found this one to be quite funny.
After showing the three photos to Mr. Fauzi, I was given the greenlight to glue pre-composition #2. Perhaps it's because it has the fewest layers out of the three, yet it tells the story of a monster attack well.
