Paper Cut-Out Techniques (study of principle of design)

                       

                     How designer applies the principle determine how successful he is. The importance of Principle of  Design cannot be denied. To make sure we master these principle, basically the handsome lecturer, named Mr. Charles give us this assignment.

                    Paper cut-out.

                   We see things that attract our attention first. That's why designer is needed. But to be a good designer, we not only just attract people attention, but also need to build up value and story behind the design too . Those "principles" is like the tools of telling a story in a graphic, if a design have no story, it will just be a lifeless rubbish . Haha.

                   Jom. Let's see how I done it with my understanding!

                     Symmetrical Balance.  Anubis was a funerary god. His task came to be holding the scales on which the heart was weighed. If the heart was lighter than a feather, the dead would be led by Anubis to Osiris. If heavier, the soul would be destroyed. Another words, Anubis is the god of balance, and the point of this is, to balance anything, we should first balance our heart. Attitude must be positive in doing anything, that's why I choose this to be my symmetrical balance.

                 Asymmetrical Balance.

                    Hierarchy. Hierarchy is an order, arranged accordingly to create emphasis. I named mine "The Order Of Life". There's a hierarchy in everything, even life. The square represent memory, is a image stored to preserve things. Growing and growing, Do you asking this question before: What is the purpose of our life?

                      Scale.  From small to big, from inner to outward, that simple.

                 

                   Movement. I used inorganic element and geometric shape to suggest movement. I used many form of arrow to lead audience attention from below left all the way to top left, get it? My theme of movement is called "explosion".

                Dominance. "Square and circle", I created repetition of square while unique circle from below right dominance the picture.

               Repetition 1. Once A Scout, Always A Scout. Repetition of scout logo, in memory of my scouting life.

               Repetition 2. B&W scouting logo.

               Rhythm.  Line goes from pack to each other until far apart. Cross over the line the others way around, and finally create the sense of  3-dimensional. A curve flowing from down to up . basically rhythm means how a picture direct our eye-sight, see yourself, realize how it direct your attention? :)

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!!
