Week 1 photoshop activity has allowed me to experiment with adobe software and combining images with the aim to blend the object subtly in a attentive manner. Few challenging problems I've faced included the difficulty of fitting in the object with the maximised presence of the photoshop object (the Arc). Another challenge i have faced was the issue of lighting in the provided image considering the nighttime setting in the attached image. Lastly the use of perspective warp was very difficult due to the angled view of the object and the shifting of the pattern on the arc. Overall i enjoyed the process of blending in the object and adjustment of brightness and colours in accordance to the atmosphere of the surrounding environment
The illustrator activity of creating accurate representation of buildings and creating pedestrian movement helped me to further develop understanding of creating shapes more effectively using the path and intersections of lines. This activity also taught me how to control width and variation of curves using width tool. The challenge faced during this activity was the additional shapes that were being selected together when combining lines to create shapes. I have tried to avoid this through locking of layers and occasionally adding in the non essential(not building) shapes after editing of buildings shapes.
This model was created smaller than the previous models to efficiently utilise materials at home in the 1:100 scale. I've experimented with light using the flashlight at home to maximise the result of direct lighting to the rooms. The materials I've used includes mostly boxboard using techniques includes folding for parts of the staircase and the walls of the smaller room/base room. I also utilised paper to represent the floor and plastic sheet to represent a long window on an angle to let natural lighting in. - I will be further developing on the models to allow natural & artificial lighting to create an ideal atmosphere for my room Light from the right Light from the left (towards the plastic material) With human figures
