I could recall a statement one of my lecturers ( can't remember who though ) made from my previous semester, the biggest difference between an artist and a designer is that an artist create their art to convey a message while designers create works that has specific functions ( usually to meet user requirements ). Well, I guess this mindset isn't always valid.
I've thought of 3 initial projects, which I thought would be very 'functional' to specific user group. I didn't think of the message behind these ideas. Of course to no surprise, all 3 proposal got rejected xD
It was only after hearing Mr Kok Yoong's response to my project direction that it hit me. Those ideas were boring as hell and soooooooooo lame. I totally agree with him when he said "I bet you will lose interest doing these projects halfway"
So I went back home, brainstormed for a few hours, played a couple rounds of Dota >.<, then back to the drawing board again and came out with 3 new ideas. Alhamdulillah I've got Mr Ky's and Madam Forest's approval :)
P/S : I dont know why it was even necessary to write a lame introduction -_-
