Reflections

▼ Experience
Starting on my degree journey at Taylor's, this module covers in-depth information on illustrations and how to create a successful visual narrative. Keeping all the teachings by Mr Hafiz in mind, I strive to achieve an improvement in my skill in illustration. The whole documentation using Blog as instructed by Mr Hafiz assisted me in visualizing the improvements I made over the 3 months and gave me the chance to look back on all the stuff I've learned during this long semester.


▼ Observations
I have made a lot of observations, whether searching for ideas and references on the Internet or receiving feedback from my lecturer on my assignments. Besides, I got to have a detailed look at the other peers' creative works during the feedback session with the lecturer, enjoying their various perspectives on the same topics.


▼ Findings 
Before I took this module, I thought that illustration was created in simple and directive. However, the lectures taught me about how there are many details such as techniques and rules to follow to fabricate complete and successful visual graphics. I also found that the videos provided by Mr Hafiz during class aided me in understanding all the techniques and information in the lecture.

Later he supplied the whole class with several class materials such as the fonts that I would need to use for this semester's assignments.
