Update Blog#13

This week has been a very resourceful week for us as we started on the front end of our website. This gave us the opportunity to conduct a meeting and come up with a plan that can help us with our website by going to different shops that we've already interviewed to verify if they'll collaborate with us when our website is done. 

 We know that next week will be a challenging one since our assignment will be the advertisement or how to get clients for our product.

Semiotics - The Sign

Below are two examples of identifying the ‘sign’, the ‘signifier’, and the ‘signified’:

Example 1:

Signifier: The car that is made by Mitsubishi Motors, the detached wheels from the car, and the rhinoceros.  

Signified: The idea that this car is going to be a durable car. We know what a car looks like because we see them every day. The rhinoceros that looks like it is going to be placed underneath the frame of the car gives us a different meaning. A rhino is a strong predator in the wild. Knowing this about the rhino tells the viewer that the car is going to be a strong, durable, and reliable car.

Sign: The image of the advertisement and the obvious understanding the viewer will receive from seeing the advertisement. 

Example 2:

Signifier: The image or the symbol that is shown.

Signified: The idea and understanding that is gained from getting a visual of this image.

Sign: The image and the idea of this symbol.

WEEK 13 30/5 Course Reflection

Overall i like communication, it thought me a lot about how to display your like a professional, and also tech drawing are also important, and don’t forget AutoCAD, even though i think it’s really hard to use but in this industry if you want to do any thing thats related to making something something that’s not 2D then you have to know how to use it, and unfortunately i’m still not that good at it so need to work harder for sure. All the tech drawing needs lots of time to be perfected and gets to the industry’s standard, you won’t just suddenly know how to do everything, that’s why i think i need try more.

As for the model making this is also very important and photography since these two is a really good and simple way to display my ideas.

There is so much more that i can do better, hope we have subject like this in semester 2.
