Lectures
Week 6
In this week we were introduce on foreground, middle ground and background
and also on different composition.
FOREGROUND - Objects that are nearest to the viewer
MIDDLE-GROUND - Objects in between foreground and background
BACKGROUND - Objects that are the furthest away from the
viewer

After the lecture class, Mr. Hafiz taught us about colour basics as our
tutorial. We were advised to follow him so that we could expand our
knowledge of Illustrator. In this tutorial, he covered the line tool.

PROJECT 2: DECISIVE MOMENT
Before getting started on the assignment, I performed some study on the
design of minimalist movie posters and researched how the posters convert
the film into simple art. In order to locate the origin of the light, I
observed that the essential components are typically represented as lines,
silhouettes, basic text, or shadows. This allowed me to determine the
location of the light source. As a result of looking at these examples, I
now have a general concept of how I want my poster to look.

As a fantasy adventure film, Alice in Wonderland caught my eye because of
its intriguing plot and characters. This is the story of a little girl's
first trip to the enchanted Underland. Teenage Alice Kingsleigh (Wasikowska)
has no recollection of her childhood home save for her dreams. When she
spies a white rabbit at a garden party for her fiance and herself, she falls
through a hole after him. Her life takes a turn for the unexpected. With her
old companions the Mad Hatter (Johnny Depp), Cheshire Cat (Helena Bonham
Carter), and others, Alice is reunited with her destiny: to bring a stop to
the Red Queen's rule of horror.
Figure 3.1 Chosen Movie 'Alice in Wonderland'
Figure 3.2 Original Movie Clip
The scene from the movie that I decided to choose was the one in which Alice chases the rabbit without thinking and ends up going down a deep hole that looks like a well. She falls down this hole very slowly for a very long time. She is slowly lowered into the pit when she discovers that the walls of the pit are lined with shelves and cupboards. She removes a jar of marmalade from one of the shelves and places it on the counter.
Figure 3.3 Sketched alice felling in the tunnel
When Alice follows the Rabbit to the location that he gets her to, she ends up tumbling down the tunnel and the picture that you see above is the sketch that I came up with to depict the scene.

Figure 3.4 First draft of my poster
I didn't like for it because it was so straightforward, so I changed the background to have some texture and added some chess moves to the board.
Figure 3.5 Added elements
I had the impression that it did not belong there, so I mulled about the possibility of combining the key hole with another element, such as a silhouette door.

I asked about feedback from Ms. Anis, and she remarked that it is a nice one in response to my question. After that, I inquired of her whether there was anything that I could have done better. In response to my question, she told me, "Perhaps I can come up with a border for the poster to make it appear more streamlined."
Figure 3.8 Chosen poster
As a result, I settled the above one as the subject of my poster. After that, I begin the process of animating my poster in order to create the GIF.
Figure 3.8 Creating animation timeline with Photoshop
I came up with the idea to animate Alice in the scene where she goes down the rabbit hole and also to animate the shadow to show the glitching effect.
Figure 3.9 GIF Draft 1
The shadow is cool, but it distracts the viewers a bit from focusing on Alice. So I decided to removed the shadow effect from my GIF.
