LECTURES
Week 3 / 09.06.2021
First, Mr Fauzi Yusoff opened with the Lecture section. In this section, he introduced Adobe Photoshop to us (Lasso tool, Pen tool, and Layering).
a. Lasso ToolThe Lasso Tool allow us to draw and pinpoint specific areas of a document. The Lasso tool is divided into 3 parts, lasso, polygonal lasso, and magnetic lasso. The Lasso Tool is great to use with a graphic tablet because it is similar to a pencil.

b. Pen Tool
The pen tool is the way that we add these points and the way we drag the tool as we create the points determines how they will look. Remember, the fewer points, the smoother a path will be.

c. Layering
Layers are different images stacked on top of each other. We can use each layer without affecting another one to make adjustments. The advantage is that we can save a Photoshop file with all the layers included. This means we can use layers for non-destructive editing. Our adjustments in Photoshop will never destroy the original image. The layers contain all the extra information and/ or images we want to add to the original file.

a. COMPOSITION #1
Fig. 3.1 / Composition#1, Week 3 (09.06.2021)
For me, if you don’t have any concept in the first, you will struggle at the first but it’s going easy in the second and a little bit struggle again for the last concept. First, I cut unnecessary background that I don’t like it then the next day I tried to work on collage (like Mr Fauzi’s suggestion). For the first composition, I tried with the same vibe colour (like retro, isn’t it? ><). It's quite neat, I like it.
b. COMPOSITION #2
Fig. 3.2 / Composition#2, Week (09.06.2021)
For the second composition, I get the idea easily. I wanted to create like people walking into the shark mouth. I also put the old projector with a human’s head, like he is the “controller”. The result quite fascinates me. A little bit odd in the projector. However, I guess is quite a balance.
c. COMPOSITION #3
Fig. 3.3 / Composition#3, Week 3 (09.06.2021)
For the last composition, this is my favourite. Actually, I don’t know why, it just looks unique. I also don’t know why every third project fascinates me. As you can see, the heavy point is at the bottom of the train, near the “tunnel”. There is a golden ratio in there.
Final Outcome
