Assignment 2: A Dynamic Motion Based Poster


My main concept for this assignment 2 was based on the previous theme, Festival, on the poster of 1 Malaysia.

I try to used all the image and text on the first assignment to done this dynamic motion poster.


By using Adobe Flash CS4 Professional, I manage to create motion and movement. The most comment tools that I used were Create Motion Tween and Alpha effect. This two tools can create a 3D movement and made my text and image become more interesting.

CG3 assignment 1


This assignment is to design a typography poster with the title of 1 Malaysia. I choose festival theme on 1 malaysia concept for this poster design.



This is the 1st design that I had done. The text is:
Multiracial multireligion living harmony, 1 country 1 nation as 1 family
. I think it was quite nice, but later on , I relies that this poster is too 'image' and didn't feel typography at all. So, i plan to redesign again with those image that i use on top.


This is the redo poster.
Multiracial multi religion living harmony,1 country 1 nation as 1 family.
This design looks more typography. As I choose festival as my theme, i need to put at lease 3 image that represent the unite in Malaysia.
* Mosque --> Malay race
* Hindu dance -->Indian race
* Lion dance --> Chinese race

Then I choose a light and litter dull color as background color because I do not want the color of the background too bright. I want the typography stand out and can be read clearly by everyone.
