Can you feel the energy rushing towards you?

retro wallpaper

I have been pulled into the retro design space and loving the things I learn and every moment of it. Some people have been asking me why my design revolves around "myself" and the reasons are 1) I was designing on the spot and needed an individual to make some poses. 2) I am designing display pictures for facebook and msn messenger.

Here is a new design which doesn't consist of my physical self. Cheers.

60's poster

Adding a new addition to my design skill is the 60's poster design style, this is used as my avatar on facebook too. I am waiting for the day that I can apply these skills to my work.

designer for life

As for my passion in design, I will be a designer for life no matter where I am, where I work, what I do and where I go. I see design wherever I go let it be cooking, eating, playing, exercising, blogging, watching a movie and etc. I look at how well an object is designed, wonder how they did it and if I could do the same. The current designer that I currently look up to will be my creative director at Roadshow Entertainment, my mentor if I could tag him. The way he looks at a design, the way he design, the way he explains to me, the way he remembers things and the way he communicates and treat his staffs is second to none. Whenever he comes back to me with changes or when he re-arrange my work amazes me, with his guidance and my passion for design I will try my best to excel in any given task.

This design is for all the designers out there that loves what they are doing, designing! Cheers.

apple coldplay design

Design inspired by coldplay apple design ad. Some have mistaken this design to be inspiring or impressing to my audience whereas it is bluntly a copy of coldplay apple design ad. Not used to get recognition but use to improve my design skills which I need badly, I need to learn as much photoshop tricks so that I can be more productive at work and at home. Learn or fall behind, thanks for reading.

the godfather + peaceful person

My avatar was getting old and its time for a new avatar, thats when 'the godfather' came into play. John, the creative leader of Activate Youth emailed me asking if I was interested in designing the desktop wallpaper for September's theme which is 'Peaceful Person', I took the offer and these are the results.

work and personal work

Im still yet to get a hold on my design for the works I did for Roadshow Entertainment and from now on I will be taking down the release and publish date of my projects so it will be easier for me to get some decent pictures of them instead of having to constantly check video stores and magazine for them.

Meanwhile, I have been playing around with photoshop lately to improve my skills so that I will be able to be more productive at work, anyways enjoy.

being a junior graphic designer at Roadshow Entertainment

Disappointed at myself was what I felt after 4 weeks at Roadshow Entertainment and now I ask myself this question "Am I even qualified to be a graphic designer even though I have got a degree in it?". The reason I question myself is because of my performance for the company, for the first week at work I had about 10-20 questions that I asked my colleagues, its really ridiculous actually with the pay that I am getting and the performance that I am giving is like robbing a bank.

I thought after working at the company for a few weeks I would get a hang and become more productive than ever but no it was nowhere near. This really got me wondering, what happened to the HD and D that I got from college? what happened to the "praises" I get from people? what happened to all the skills that I have learnt from college? where did they all disappeared to?

I finally realise the importance of work experience, its extremely important. Getting experience in the working world will allow us to see and understand what "real clients" are after and forces us to put our skills to good use, not only that but we will be forcing ourselves to improve and learn more design techniques to help improve our design which I am currently learning. Getting back from work, I have the urge to improve my design skills as I question myself daily at the office on why I am not getting the result that I was aiming for and how can I improve my current design? All these questions gives me motivation and motivation to do better for work will also improve my design skill and lifestyle as an individual.

I will aim to do the impossible and try to achieve the impossible, with goal this high I have nowhere to go but to improve myself and this is my journey...

experimentation halftone

Staying away from my major project for the day allowed me to do some experimentation and this was the result. With this new technique I will be sure to use it more often in the up coming designs. Cheers!

Other passion

My other passion apart from designing artworks is circuit racing. Ive had a passion for the race track ever since I got my Type R. These designs were the result of bringing my passions together.

myspace

these designs were used solely as self promotion on myspace. it was my first experiment with illustration and photoshop was used to create these 2 designs. quite happy with the way it turns out and was definitely satisfying knowing one could think and step out of the ordinary design box.
