Final Poster Approach 1 TYPE When the idea 'Gassy Gal' popped, I knew that I wanted to make something 'balloony'. Even though this looks simple, this poster took so long to make. Adjusting the colors, shadows, and highlight into a color palette that best portrays me was what taking it long. Eventually, when the poster is finalized, I am very happy with the result. I'm a little disappointed that I couldn't use the alternative with the strings attached to the balloon though because I think it looks terrific. Nevertheless, I think these pink floating letters are also unique!

Approach 2 Part 1 The ObjectiveIdeation IMAGE
Looking back, one of the most essential thing within my growth journey as a person, is the space where I rest myself. My (physical) room(s). The rooms I have stayed this past years, the moving in and out, they are there along with me, witnessing how I went through life.
(*) There are no photo references because I lost my old laptop where I keep all those photos.
I am illustrating the past 4 rooms I've ever been and left as a symbol of completion towards those 4 stages . The rooms are presented by the way I remember it* when I first came into the particular room.

This poster's idea is showing my completion of stages in my life—how I've grown and leveled up in all ups and downs. It is expressed in a 'naked' room—with the walls off. The thread went from off screen to another off screen, showing that there will always be more levels to complete, growth to conquer, rooms to rest. The poster is shown in 2 color palettes, showing both andcomplexity.simplicity

The negative space and contrast color gives the complex hero images room to take the show. The bright colors chosen are to express acceptance towards the past.

Final Poster Approach 2 TYPE+IMAGE This poster is the funnest and it was an impromptu. The 'Gassy Gal' idea was supposed to be a type poster. When I search for inspiration, I typed 'intestine' and the idea to make letters out of it burst me into laughter and I knew I definitely am doing this.
Self Portrait This assignment is a really great start for me personally to start my semester. Looking at the mirror to see what really portrays me, has been an opportunity for me to look deeper within myself—at the same time also entertain myself to accept and laugh at my flaws that actually is unique. The 'Gassy Gal' idea came literally when I ate. Lately my immune system has been down due to COVID. One of the biggest effect is on my gastric acid. When the phrase came to me, I was very excited and knew that this is me. This best portrays me at this very moment especially. My gastric problem first came as a symptom of psychosomatic while I was at the peak of my anxiety times. The rooms as I illustrated in Type+Image approach—witnessed them all. I'm very grateful for this opportunity and I'm looking forward to express myself further through design.
