History of Art and Design.

It was wonderful as our classmates all did GOOD job! WELL DONE EVERYONE! :D
We all did this project with 101% of effort. I hope some class's fella can see it.
Something ridiculous happened anyway, some students from next class somehow argued with our lecturer.
Yeah la I know you guys sucks, but don't make a shame of yourself.

It was pretty obvious that our classmates did better than you guys.
In this society, people DO make comparison, you don't expect your client to consider like,
"oh although this mock up is a mess, but since the concept is good so I'll buy this."
Ya know what, if a 17/18 years old failed to produce a NEAT artwork, no matter how strong is your concept or your mouth, it will not work.

This project is basically about our craftsmanship and the idea behind the costume.
YES, YOU GUYS DID WONDERFUL JOB ON THE CONCEPT. We all admitted that the storyline was interesting and I personally liked it a lot.
But the another hand, the final product, it did not brings out the 'kid's work' kind of feeling to me, instead I felt that it is a MESSY WORK.
And another ridiculous part is when you guys said 'We did this, all of us did this'
9/10 person in a group, and you produced such messy work? sorry but I'll need to look down on you guys.

You guys said 'We're still in foundation, you don't expect us to blablabla' 'We are here to learn history, you don't expect us to do good crafts here'
BULLSHIT. Grow up man people.
Foundation doesn't mean you're starting from zero. I believe that everyone that decides to join TOA at first surely have strong interests in this subject. With all these passions and interests, and you're telling all of us that, I'm still in foundation~ don't expect me to make really good artwork~
Next, primary schools, secondary schools, WE ALL DID ARTS. So what the hell is with that 'This is not crafts class so you don't highlight on that'  YOU ARE AN ART STUDENT! It's like your three meals in a day! BASIC REQUIREMENT FOR AN ARTWORK IS NEATNESS!
Daniel is a lecturer, but what he's doing in this subject is - to teach us about previous art styles, and build up a stronger art sense, also try to help us with our creativity. THAT'S IT.
When it comes to projects, we will need to at least produce a good artwork in terms of visual, first impression.
And then if there's problem with the concept, then THAT IS HIS JOB! To explains and make us understands!
What you guys were doing was, you produce a messy work, then show to Daniel, saying that 'This is our concept, and we purposely made it in this way'.
Okay Daniel was surely fine with the concept, like duh it was so damn good.
But when it comes to the artwork, people do feel disappoint alright? It's like a rush work that I will never ever did even if I'm rushing on deadline.
A kid's work doesn't mean MESSY. You're an art student so no matter what is your concept, try to make something that is close to the character you designed, yet it is presentable.
If I'm your team leader, I will definitely ban that piece of SHIT.
Kid's work - get two rackets ready, paint them with colors, and use masking tapes to tape both of them up, NEATLY.
Concept - Kids' badminton rackets are always like so damn cun and colorful, we did not use stuffs like hot glue gun or some other tape because we considered that it is a kid's work. Kid never know what is the suitable glue for this two materials, they should have just take a tape and tape it up.
DONE. It is presentable, and the concept behind is still clear. When I was a kid, I did not produce work like what I saw. It was horrible, frankly speaking.

I stayed back to watch CD1001-03's works. One of them was about all the veges and fruits.
And during their presentation, they said that it was foods that people don't manage to finish and threw away.
IT WAS ABOUT DAMN UNFINISHED FOODS! BUT, their costume was very neat, very very impressive.
Back to the original comparison, between CD1 and CD2. Wei Li's group might not have strong concept, but the first impression is there, very strong visual and people will appreciate the hardwork for such detailed piece of work.
Look at your own costume. You sure it is presentable? The idea of using pants for the top was actually very awesome you know? You guys failed because of the messiness of it. Even if its a kid's work, you could have make it NEAT. Doesn't matter if it's not decorative enough, at least, NEAT la please.

You guys are damn shallow for scolding lecturer like that. I consulted Daniel on our own costumes, also checked other groups.
Our dismissed Barbie dolls, we tied them up with white strings that's it. We don't even cut them nicely and just let it hanging there. But why Daniel accepts it? Because we at least fixed the position of all the dolls so that it will not look messy when the model walks.
It was all bloody on the doll's parts, but we did not just paint them like random, and then we say 'this is dada, we painted it randomly because we want it to be impressive' NO WAY man seriously.
At least everything has to be logic enough alright. Kid never produce such work, memang one I beg you guys stop struggling la =.= Even my cous, which he doesn't like art at all, his art and crafts sucks, but at least it reaches the basic, neat enough and presentable.


If a 17 years old can't even beat a standard 4 kid, then please stop finding excuses and just accept the comments.
You're in this class because you need to learn and finally produce something based on what you learnt, and lecturer will judge it.
Even if you disagree much, you should just accept it during the presentation, and consult him afterwards.
At least show CD2 you guys' good side la dudes. Fighting like dunno what crazy people, noisy like hell.
You guys look damn pathetic to us, good languages help in nothing people, you're in TOA, speak like an artist, dare to critique and dare to receive it, most importantly - your artwork, has to be your language.




CD2 pwned everyone.
