Benjamin Cha
In this course I have learnt that design is not
simply about letting your imagination run wild.
You have to try and create something that
not only looks good and is impressive but
also manages to communicate clearly what
it achieves.
You will learn that when you are designing for
a client, what you had pictured as the perfect
solution may not turn out to be so. You must
understand the client’s needs or realise that the
problem requires you to approach the job in a
completely dierent way.
Be prepared to have your ideas shot down due
to something as finicky as a misplaced button,
but never give up; always be open to criticism
so that you may improve.
Throughout the course I have had the
opportunity to experience exciting and
challenging projects such as creating a social
network plug-in for web browsers, multi-touch
table applications, 3D modelling, 2D animation
as well as Life Drawing.
