Your perspective or Mine?

Rendering Perspectives

Interior Rendering

we were given a draft of a two point perspective Interior space with a mezzanine floor which needed to be redrawn by designing the area.
I tried to recreate the space given as an art gallery with paintings and sculptures.

Interior rendering

The drawing was needed to be rendered in pencil colour. I received a B grade and was asked to control the colour scheme.
I have used too many different colours for the interior of the space.

Perspectives of Design

For our last assignment in Design communication class we were told to draw 2 two point perspective drawing of the retail shop we were doing for our design 02 class.
I choose the activity area and the display area of my retail shop.
To draw the perspective views we needed to draw guide lines that exceeds A3 paper so that our perspective would fit to an A3 paper.

Activity Area.

This is the activity area of the retail shop with a futuristic style and sells congkak.
The weird table that you see is huge congkak.
I got a C+ for this drawing and rendering and was asked to improve on my rendering skills.
I also forgot to include human figures on this drawing which was part of this assignment.

Display Area.

This is the two point perspective view of the display area of the retail shop.
I received a C grade as the picture looks distorted, missing of the human figure, empty looking drawing and also because of my poor rendering.

Stories to be told

Story Board

Story board Drawing

The story board consists of 6 different two point perspective views of the Artist studio. Each view needs to have human figure and everything in the view needs to be drawn according to the guide lines in pencil.

Draft Of Story Board

All the 6 drawings are then traced into tracing paper using ink without the guide lines, just the furniture and the human figure. Then arrows are added to show the order of the story with also a brief description of the view under it.

Story Board

I got a C+ for this work and things i needed to improve was the human figure and not to draw too complicated arrows. Also to fill the empty spaces in the drawings.

Story board rendering

The story board is photo copied on to marker paper and rendered in it by using marker and pencil colour for details. We needed to choose a colour scheme for the Artist studio and I chose blue and brown for the wood.

Rendering of Story Board

I received a grade of C for this Rendering. It seems that i choose a lot of brown which confused the lecturer what my colour scheme was. I was also told to improve on my human figure and to apply the shade and shadow of objects correctly.

Back to basics

Sketching

Sketching interior Physical components

We were given to draw 9 chairs and 9 tables, that follows geometrical shapes like  cube, cuboid, cone, sphere and so on.

To draw these furniture we first had to draw the guide lines of the geometric shapes and draw the furniture along the guidelines. After drawing we needed to colour these furniture in colour pencil.

Chairs

 While drawing these i tried to find interesting looking furnitures for both chairs and tables. The mistake i did when drawing these chairs was that i did not draw them facing front.

I received a grade of B- for the chairs and a B for the tables. I also got some comments for my tables drawing saying that i need to apply more colour and to darken the object shadow.

Tables

Sketching Human figures and plants 

The next assignment given in sketching was to draw human figures and trees and to render in pencil colour. We were suppose to draw at least 5 human figures and trees.

Human figure and plants

We also added more details like the tiles and grass on the floor and also the clouds in the sky.

I was given a B for this work and received a few comments which said that the proportion of trees and human are good,  I need to improve in pencil colour rendering and need to put in more details

Model Making

Model making presentation and Photography.

Presentation board

To the given floor plan of the artist studio, we had to make a model including its furniture and roof.
I love model making though it takes a lot of time and concentration. The main challenge when making the model was to create the staircase, as the rising of the stair case need to be exactly 150. If its not very accurate, the staircase would not level with the mezzanine floor. Another challenge was to create the glass railing, as the plastic does not stick very well with UHU glue. The model was made in such a way that the roof, ceiling and two exterior walls can be removed so that the interior of the space can be easily visible .It took me altogether three nights to make the model.

After the model was done we took pictures of the model in the science lab where we could change the light settings easily. We were suppose to take pictures of 11 elevation, 1 from top view and 3 Interior perspectives. These 5 photos need to be edited with human figure where possible  and compiled together to create a presentation board.

Presentation Board

I got an A for this work and my comments include: "Nice photo composition", "lack of brief of project". I missed to write a brief of the artist studio which I totally forgot.
