Experience
Overall, I have learnt a lot during my time in this module. Though the work load is massive, and sometimes overwhelming, I understand that this is to prepare us for what holds in the future. This not only teaches me but has also allowed me to experience working effectively and quickly. In my opinion, the first task was the most challenging because there are three sub-tasks altogether that has to be completed in a short duration of 5 weeks. I have only got an average of 1 - 2 weeks to complete each sub-task. At first, my time management was not great. I was delaying and delaying and find myself working last minute. Fortunately, I got more productive as time goes by and managed to complete all the tasks.
Observation
Throughout this semester, I realised that I tend to explore and experiment on the given topic first before starting a project. This is due to me not having a clear idea on where to start. Thus, quite a lot of time have been taken up for exploring and research. In the final project, I observed many existing work for reference and it helped me greatly as to where I can begin, as I find myself lost and have no idea how to start at times.
Findings
My understanding of typography is broadened after completing this module. In Task 1, I discovered how different typographical compositions work, how to create letters that are inspired from an image, and creating a wallpaper artwork. In Task 2, I discovered how key artworks / marks are made with correlation to something the designer wants to show through the mark (e.g. characteristic, feature, personality, etc.). As for Task 3, I finally designed my first ever typeface (uppercase, lowercase, numerals, certain symbols). Through my own experience, I found that not only the visual style of the font has to be nice, consistency is also key to make all the characters look united. Overall, I think a good understanding on typography will be beneficial despite hopping into the entertainment design specialisation in the coming semesters.
