Initially, I was surprise our first assignment was a poster design. I was expecting to dive into digital media right from the start. But i guess this assignment is a good bridge to link NM2208 to this module.

The play revolves around a couple, Jav and Pauline, who strives real hard for their dream to break out of their miserable poor lives. They are determined to do anything for it and end up giving in and taking the easy way up. In order to support Jav's overseas studies to further his promotion, Pauline decides to sell her body for sex. Finally, Jav completes his study and they are one step closer to their dream. However, they realise things will never be the same again. Their tarnished past continues to haunt them as they live in fear everyday, worried that someone from their past will recognize them.

Although it is said that a picture speaks a thousand words, I decided to use words to convey the abstract feeling. I always believe that one's imagination is the best medium, thus I wanted to let this poster trigger the viewers' curiosity. Overall, this piece of work received pretty good compliments from the class, just that it lacks the surrealistic aspect. I have an idea to shape a hand, using words, reaching out for the title 'Dreams'. I hope it will work out! Stay tune for my updates.
