We were supposed to choose 2 objects out of six and connect it to the given emotions.
Emotions Objects
Creative Pencil
Sad cup
Brave candle
Hardworking plug
Greedy computer mouse
Passionate clock
My group and I chose the cup and candle. I had focussed solely on the cup and made several sketches to which I thought would serve as a proper example.
My rough sketches on the cup
With all those, we came to a final decision in which we chose the better example and presented it to our lecturer.
So here are our final..
The Cup
Creative: Opening different.
Brave: A knight with a sword
Passionate: Abstract swirled designs, forming a heart shape at the top.
Hardworking: Muscles at either sides.
Greedy: Many compartments for more drinks.
Sad: An upset cup. Upside down to show sadness.
The Candles
Sad: Made to look like Dripping wax
Brave: Human climbing at the sides
Creative: A Light bulb with the candle inside
Passionate: A heart formed by two candles when come together.
Greedy: Loads of candles.
At the end of presenting it to our lecturer, he told us it was alright. We played more with the extra designs and details. If we were to cover the side of the arms of the cup for example, it would just be a regular cup.
If I were to cover the sides,
It'll look like a normal cup.
Though he did mentioned that the Greedy and Passionate cup was alright. I guess it is due to designing the form. If I were to cover the Greedy cup at the sides, I'd still see the original design.
It was indeed confusing when my lectured explained the first time. But, we finally understood what he meant as he gave us examples. I think this topic on Forced Connection and the exercise was indeed helpful. It'll help me in the future, I'm sure.
