Wk 9- Nice Website

I am going to introduce a wonderful website, StumbleUpon. It's some kind of search engine that help the user to search for recommended web content for user which fits user's interest.

Home Page

In the home page after log in, I can edit my interest.

For example, I click on the word "Movie", it'll first direct me to a page. Click on the Stumble on the top left conner to find which site it will recommend us. The image, somehow not really related though.

After click on Stumble, the web page that recommend by the website will be shown randomly. You'll never know which site will be shown, you'll even get to know some new websites that fit your interest through here. For example:

http://www.filmschoolrejects.com/

http://www.screenjacker.com/

www.listal.com/list/m-p-t-t-t

It shows me 3 different web sites as I click stumble 3 times. Moreover, These are the website I don't know and I get to know new websites about movies, which I am very interested in. All in all, it's a good sites for me, as a designer to look for more useful references.

Wk 8- FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION and FUNCTIONS FOLLOWS FORM

In wikipedia, Form follows function is a principle associated with modern architecture and industrial design in the 20th century. The principle is that the shape of a building or object should be primarily based upon its intended function or purpose. In the aspect of modern architecture, "Form follows Function" by Louis Sullivan of American Chicago School triggered the development of modern functionalism.


Same as Design, if an object has to perform a function, its design must support its function. Which mean, you must consider the requirement before go into design. Basic background research of the subject and understanding the subject before start to design is very important for a designer. 


For "Function follows form", it is mean we can develop design with existing form. The idea of function can be inspired by existing form. For example, Apple is function follow form. Why? The architect Louis Sullivan coined the famous maxim “form follows function.” According to Sullivan, the exterior look of an object such as a building should be consistent with its interior functions. But if you consider the way Apple Computer’s hot-selling iPad and iPhone are designed and manufactured, Sullivan’s concept has literally been turned inside-out.

Wk 5- Graphic Designer :)

Basically, today Mr. Radzi Bedu teach us, what is graphic design.

In history, you can see some drawing on the wall, that is the way of those people communicate, with no words, but graphic only, that is graphic design.

Graphic design serve the purpose - to communicate with others.

It deal with graphic, such as logo, application in Iphone/Smartphones, typography, just with 1 goal, to communicate.

A fail graphic design, is mean miscommunication, so call communication break down. Mean that, just only yourself, who the only one know the true meaning, but other take it as another meaning.

In Wikipedia, Communication is the activity of conveying meaningful information. Communication requires a sender, a message, a receiver and feedback through a medium.

The medium can be in the form of computer screen, on paper or any in form that can provide visual data.

The artwork you create just for your own interest, and just communicate among yourself, that is not graphic design, that is monolog. A graphic design must achieve it purpose - which is communicate, at least there are two audiences who can understand your graphic design want to bring out what meaning, mean communicate success, mean is a graphic design :) When your work (photography or ++) you keep it, that is not graphic design, but when you share it with some words in open public such as internet, then your work will become a graphic design, because it archive communication.

Graphic design dealing with...

1. Painting

2. Illustration

3. Photographys

4. Computer-generated images (pictures)

5. Visual Effect

6. Letterform

7. Typefaces

8. Movie credits (describe the character)

9. TV ads (font)

10. Drawing

11. Magazine

12. Menu

13. Huge thing like billboard

14. T-shirt

To create good graphic design, you must study everything and understand the rules. Study the priciple of design too, relate your work with part of your daily life.

A good graphic designers have:

-Good in arranging

-Aesthetic organiser, solutionist

-Creative, with vision, see things in different perspective
