Likes & Dislikes - Final Draft  

Posted by John Khoo

Alright, draft 2's out...

I've decided to settle on a grey background (don't ask me why) coz i'm absolutely bad at colour coordination...

But yups... here's the final product:






My name is John.. and i love music/singing. Music and performing has been part of my life since like secondary 1... Learnt the piano since young, etc. My life's probably going to be mundane if i never ever started writing songs and performing. Singing and songwriting is like a perfect way for me to destress after a horrid day at school/work.


Therefore...


For this picture i've decided to make use of the shadow of a singer, together with glimpses of a keyboard, musical notes, music staves, headphones etc. Action lines are an attempt to show the movement of the singer, and to bring out the fact that he's actually enjoying singing...

-------------------------------------------


Now for my dislike...


I couldn't exactly find anything to particularly hate. So i've decided to settle upon technology... which i believe is taking away a lot of our valuable time. Like hello... people nowadays don't actually find the time to switch off the lights, turn on some nice soothing music, enjoy some cool gentle night breeze, or simply close their eyes and relax. Because of technology we inadvertently find ourselves living in this absolutely fast paced world..


Here's my final product for my dislike...


My classmates have suggested me using crack lines to display my dislike for technology. I've decided to also add the flames to depict a very negative feeling towards technology. The items constituting my nme includes daily technological items such as the cell phone, the ipod, and a bluetooth headset, all bundled about a computer desktop...

My own personal reflection about this design is that it looks like it just came out from a primary school colour pencil book. But nonetheless, i can't exactly think of any other way to make it look more professional...

DO DROP BY WITH COMMENTS! :) i would be more than willing to change it if there's something wrong with it...
