Play&Forces
Theme:The word Force means violence, force and influence or armed forces. In my understanding of this word, I chose the explanation of armed forces because I am very ignorant about the military, and I wanted to consult more information and improve my knowledge in this area through this work. I decided to express this theme in the form of a different kind of cute illustration.
Context: This time the theme is Force, what comes to my mind is all kinds of military materials and war scenes and the characteristics of each country's army, but because I do not know much about this field, so I spent a lot of time looking for materials, and finally I chose guns, because this is the field I do not know the most and by making this work, I will get a deeper understanding, so I checked on the Internet I would like to call this painting a republic, because it contains guns from as many as 33 countries. Different colors represent each country has different gun design styles, and each country has different cultures, so I chose to use different colors to paint this colorful illustration. My next plan is to take this one illustration and maybe cut it into smaller pieces and then you can put them together, similar to a children's literacy game, which would be very interesting for people who are military illiterate.

Reflection:
In this work, I found that simple illustration work may not be able to better express your intention, while work with interaction or game design can better explain the theme of ADP, so I think afterwards, I will consider how to combine illustration with interaction and game to make playable illustration, or set in the game, more beautiful illustration. I can combine my interest and professional direction. Also, how to make this work look less boring is something I should reflect on now, because during these weeks of study, ADP has been very focused on innovation and creative direction, and my work has been very uninspired, but I'm glad that in ADP I can try different forms of art creation and try very, very many forms to complete this class, which gives me a lot of opportunities to It gave me a lot of opportunities to learn about completely different areas and to make projects that I wasn't good at before, which was also an exercise for me. In fact, I could have illustrated all the topics, but in the A D P course, I chose to try to try different forms to finish each time to interpret the topic, because this way, I think it will make me improve and give me more experience. The most important lesson I learned in ADP is to be brave and creative with my work. It allowed me to think about the meaning and motivation of my work, rather than blindly completing the assignment, and it also allowed me to think more about what I needed to achieve and what I wanted to learn or improve my skills in the next assignment, which is a very important point for self-improvement and improvement. This is a very important point for self-improvement and improvement. Hopefully, in the next class, I will be inspired to make my work less boring and to make them have a certain game logic, or interactive function, rather than a single ornamental value. Giving ordinary objects an extraordinary meaning is the meaning of design and art.After watching other students' works, I still think my creativity is a bit boring and my creativity is not that good, so I can improve my knowledge in this area, and it might be good to watch more exhibitions and other works, for expanding my eyes and improving my creativity. I hope I can produce more works in the direction of interactive media in the future. This is the question I am troubled by, and I think I will discuss the difference between them with my teacher later. I think I need to organize my ideas in my next work, so that when I decide on a path to create this work, I don't have to think of other ideas, and I can write down other creative ideas. This is what I have learned from this assignment.
