Let Us Define Art: Part 1

Assalamualaikum ~

So, in my previous post, I already mentioned how long we had to wait for the Typography final assessment to end. We had plenty of time so I managed to pull out my brand new RM16.00 Thread Sew Bind Notebook that I bought at MPH. It's small, and pretty awesome. It's a similar type to my S&J sketch book but the one I bought at S&J is damn heavy and big. It's hard to carry around.

Anyway, I've asked my friends to put anything they wanted in it and here they are.

This is my work. It was a duplication and improvisation of Dena Bahrin's work.

Haziq Amir's.

This is Kim's. She's a part 2 student but lately she's been hanging out a lot with Daus.

Firdaus Zulfaa's.

This is Faiz's.

My favourite from Adi Nur Fitri, my class rep. Kecik-kecik cili padi orangnya.

Ayim punyeee.

Nana paling minat anime.

Mu'izz punya. Very nice.

Again, Kim takde keje so dia tambah lagi satu.

Ray's trophy.

Qils punya, she said she messed up so gambar siapa ni will forever be a mystery.

There will be more to come, Sabtu ni pergi Pengkalan Balak, insha-Allah maka aku akan angkut buku ni skali. Trimas kamu semua sudi tinggalkan jejak dalam sketch book saya :3

I'm born for graphic (I think).

Assalamualaikum ~

So, we had our 9 a.m graphic final assessment today. Our project was one of the most fun-filled and time and money consuming which was on table calendars. We were required to choose our own client (which could either be a company or product) and my client was Polaroid.

So after weeks of battles, I finally came up with this.

I know it looks a little to not interesting in the photo but I swear that it feels awesome just by holding it. By the way, it's actually a clashed concept between Polaroid and Instagram because I make my own rules haha. Gladly I was able to do it very very neatly and impressed my lecturers, alhamdulillah.

I actually printed them out first on stickers and then built the stand and paste them on boxboards and foam boards and all that art junk. I wasn't even thinking about how I was going to set up the whole stand when I was buying all the supplies. I was just like, "This might work, oh, that looks good and I could totally use this." So basically it was risky and kind of suicidal but it turned out so good and I love it.

I did not sleep at all by the way, so I'm really heavily sleepy yet pumped because I just popped a Strepsils in my mouth because my toothbrush dah dicemari by some unknown substance. The photo above tells how unfinished our projects were. I was holding mine, because my sketches weren't finished but I snapped a picture of Mira holding her's sebab aku baru tolong dia glue kan balik. First world problem's solver la kiranya aku ni. Then, Nana pun tengah glue-glue dia punya calendar dekat sebelah Mira.

But the sleepless night was totally worth it when I saw the faces of the lecturers who assessed me. The photo above is of my closest friends and mine, from the left, Nana's (Aigner), mine (Polaroid), Qil's (Lego), Mira's (Chatime) and Daus's (EA Games).

All five of us were selected calendars, we had given them to our lecturer except for Mira's because if she were to hand it in, she has to touch it up a little bit but she refuses to. But I love hers because it qualifies so much as a company calendar.

Jakun tidur atas lantai koridor.

Assalamualaikum ~

So pagi tadi kitorang baru lepas habis final assessment untuk subject yang boleh tahan dibenci iaitu drawing. Cut to the chase, kerja banyak tak siap so kitorang tibai tak tidur langsung. Memang tak tidur, sumpah tak tipu. Budak Art & Design memang sume jadi burung hantu semalam.

Aku pulak, dengan minah tiga ekor kat bawah ni.

Kalau tak kenal aku yang mana, tu ha yang gampang gedik tudung wane hijau belakang tu.

Anyway, kitorang lepak depan bilik Qils sebab koridor dia open space. Start pukul 9 kitorang dari Tun Ali bawak la boxboard gedabak dengan toolbox bagai jalan pergi Tun Hamzah. Tang jalan tu yang best, Nana punya rambut takleh blah dah macam perempuan dalam pantang punya tinggi dia ikat, pastu kebetulan bebudak lelaki kelas kitorang yang nak balik kolej diorang lalu situ. Amek kau, mencecet lari ke bilik Qils.

So, godak sana godak sini, kitorang pun start. First tu memang semua keluarkan phone, lagu pun play, mulut pun nyanyi. Lepas tu start buat nonsense lepas dua jam kat situ, boleh pulak main tukar-tukar kertas. Kau buat aku punya, aku buat kau punya. Pun boleh.

Lepas tu start la Whatsapp bagai. Pergi Bentara jap, beli food lepas tu balik dalam kul 12, Mira ngan Qils dah macam hapa dah. And then dah masuk satu moment tu, kitorang sume start nyanyi lagu dari Pitch Perfect. Gelak nak tersembur pasal Nana perosak lirik, Qils background music, Mira dengan sound effect+singing and then aku stick to singing. Tak pasal-pasal Qils tekan 'record' lepas tu send kat group Whatsapp. Gila. Memang GILA.

Dua jam later (tang ni dah 3 pagi kot) ada budak Fine Art kacau, layankan jelah walaupun annoyed. Lepas diorang blah, kitorang buat onar. First main lagu Gentleman, pastu start pusing sana terlompat sini macam dah masuk air. Lepas tu kitorang bedah capsicum Qils. Macam-macam la jadi pagi gila tu.

Bila semua dah drained, kitorang duduk diam, sambung keje. Azan dah lepas. Masuk pukul 6, aku dah macam mayat kat situ. Aku cakap kat Nana, kejut aku 10 minutes later maka terbaringlah aku atas koridor keras bersimen kelabu tu. Aku rasa tak sampai pun 10 minit aku power nap aku dah sambung kerja balik.

Habis kerja pukul 7.40. Assessment pukul 9. Aku tidur lagi kat koridor level atas fakulti (kali ni tidur bersila, gila apa nak baring depan orang). Patutnya aku tidur sekarang tapi aku teringat pasal nak settle permohonan kolej. Tapi ada masalah dalaman pulak. Tapi takpe, at least aku dapat update.

Sekian cerita tak masuk akal.
