Level of Abstraction: Draft

the THIRD tutorial (19/02):

this tutorial was conducted in an unusual manner. we didn't have any face-to-face tutorial because it's e-Learning Week! oh well, though there was no class, i felt busier than usual (i.e. the days when there are face-to-face tutorials). not sure about the rest, but i prefer going to school (hee..at least not so much work..)

anw, below was what i presented at the forum (finally, i learnt how to make the three picture files into one! yay!)



first of all, thank you so much to those from DW5 who commented on my work.

to summarize the comments:

1. further abstract my last sketch, for instance:
- remove the shutter button and the rectangular shape inside the circle.
- do away with the flash.
2. harden the lines.
3. straighten the lines and make them more ridgid so as to make it more symbolic.

* the final presentation of this assignment will have a darker, straighter lines for sure. it is to shape out the camera, making it more symbolic than the above, which is like a sketch.

personally, i feel that i should either do without the shutter button or the flash. to me, i think that the shutterhole is still a significant part of the abstraction. thus, i will still keep the shutterhole and the flash.
