Question One- Formal and Informal design


Formal


Balance - They are well balanced with the images and text, well positioned together as one artwork.


Rhythm - The rubbish font are repetitive with the same image with text inside the rubbish bags, but the cd cover and the dot is an line that went for a walk does not have any repetition.


Proportion - On the CD cover, the dimension is well viewed, it looks realistic but also create a little bit of 3D such as the World in the middle.


Dominance - The third assessment (the dot is an line that went for a walk) creates dominance towards the background behind the butterfly but they are well position together. The cd cover creates a bit of dominance with the dark colour background, they are well effected together.


Unity - The three assignment all have relationship between the individual part because they are different in terms of the elements, they are well position and close to one another.


Informal


Closure - The three assignment doesn't have any missing pieces in a composition, all the element are formed as one artwork.


Continuance - The three assignment are contunance to look in a direction by looking at the look first and then the background.


Similarity - The CD cover has a bit of similarity with the world in the middle and the other on the top right corner as both are created in different size and colour. Also with the shiny circle of ET of the bottom right corner and the shiny circle behind the featuring text, both very similar in different sizes.


Proximity - All three assignment have a relationship will all the colours, contrast, tone of the images and text are well connect together especially with the third assignment.


Alignment - The three assignment,  all objects are well line up, pefectly straight and well balanced especially with the rubbish in which creates a pattern to every second letter.


Question Two: Concept appropriate for informal?


I think that informal is an appropriate concept to map out different stages of the design such as their techniques, skills and knowledge.


Question Three: Improvements 


The only critical thing that I had with the third assignment (a dot that went for a walk in a line) is the tone effect from the background and text. I think that the background should be a bit more brighter and the text should be a bit more lighter with the white colour and maybe a bit of shadow towards it but otherwise a great design. 


Question Four: SWOT 


Strengths: All three assignment are well produced in terms of techniques that he use toward the designs. The structure of the design are well effective with balances, colours and the composition is well positioned. 


Weaknesses: Maybe used a bit more tools on photoshop, don't make too complicated, make it simple. 


Opportunity: The opportunity is to work hard, sticking to the plan with precisely to achieve a great design. 


Threats: Brainstorm and map out all the development and ideas onto a visual diary showing the progression of the design.
