Valerie-Creations

Tutorial 3 Assignment:

First, we need to select a location in Singapore to create a representative image of that object.
Distill the image through 5 levels of abstraction and select the one that best represents/ communicates the object and develop into a pictogram.

These were some of the ideas that I have initially:
Place of worship (temple)
Shopping centre
Sports facilities
Food centre
Japanese Restaurant
Chinatown
Bird Viewing
Natural Reserve

Finally, I decided to choose bird viewing area near my house because i think that this place is a nice place which is different from other bird viewing area in Singapore. Also, not many people know that this place actually exist! So, I think I should help to develop a pictogram for this place in order to let more people know about this place.


I choose the 3rd abstraction for the pictogram.


Comments received:
First abstraction can be more detail by adding the grass so that later abstraction can have more details to remove.
Bird cage looks like lantern, maybe I could add lines for the cage or bird inside the cage to make it look more like bird cage.
Second last abstraction is already abstract and last one is abstract abstract so I can remove one of them and create something in between 3rd and last.
