Design Brief: Key Tag


Our journey was quite challenging. Dealing with electronics, it's our first time. We've been through ups and downs. Learned from our mistakes... This is the output.

Our design is not very complicated. The color is orange. We used color paper for We wrapped it up by scatch tape for the long life of the key tag. Our LED is blue for its beautiful effect (and also our favorite color). You can turn on the light by pinching like what the hand is doing.

2nd day meeting for the week... 3rd day of Ad Tech: Making it Work

Since we don't have a class on the Wednesday, it's our 2nd meeting for the week. We tried to finish the artifact... We finished the parts and we just have to stick it with each other. but we have to use the glue stick for neatness.



1st day: A very not good day

As I consulted what I did last weekend to my group mates, George didn't like it. He said I was "padalos-dalos". I felt guilty because I never consulted the design...

I just said if he doesn't like the design, at least include the back part and we can move on.

(don't have photo)

5th Week: Full of Frustrations

This week was such a frustration for me. Changing of plans. Turns out what I did last weekend was a failure. Well, We finalized the design. As in FINAL. F-I-N-A-L.

Selfie with the artifact :)

Hahahaha

3rd day: Worthy?

Worthy? Worthy for my 7 hours straight working for it? Well... I don't have a choice. Probably this week is the dead line. BTW, its not finished yet.


Here are the photos:


2nd day: "Let me do this thing"

Saturday morning. I woke up early at 7 am because we went to centro of Goa to buy the things needed. I worked for 7 hours. The pause were only to eat and go to cr.

I was not able to take pictures...

1st day: Friday alone

Friday night. It was around 10-11:30 pm. My friends Maricon David and Junelle Bongalos were doing their artifact. I was challenge because we have not started with the cutting and so. I asked for their suggestions. They suggested the Burj Al Arab of Dubai.

4th Week: Still stuck in Compartments

Our meeting for Ad Tech are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. This week, there is no classes for that 3 days for the following: 2-day seminar of Y-LEAD and the Chinese New Year. We were not able to meet.

In the day of Friday, Saturday and Sunday, I was determined to finish the artifact. The bad thing is: I never consulted the 2 boys about the plan. I was scared if they would like it...

3rd week: Progress Chart!

To Do
1st day
2nd day
3rd day
1.       Thought of the design



2.       Finalized the design



3.       Measurement



4.       Draft the part(s) in the illustration board



5.       Cut



6.       Finalized the structure of the design or theme



2nd day: Superman daw

Wind blew my hair... wosh, wosh. My eyes filled scenery of the fairy tale world. Crying for help for our design... we just need a superhero... Then a man came along with an enormous cape blowed by the wind, it was Superman coming down to the floor. I realized... I was day dreaming -_-




After I gained my conscience, realizing it was unreal. Then George thought of Superman theme. Like "WHAT!!!". Ohh Well, We just agreed.

We had our initial design. At first it was horizontal type but we argued that it would be vertical because its a building. We agreed.


1st day: Signs for Design

Here we are again... Seeking for a good design. Throughout the weekend, we searched for a good design. Here are some suggestions:
(it's the only picture I can get.)
We seek for advice of some, and I get Eiffel Tower, Big Ben, and etc.


Throughout the whole day, it's just all about the design...

3rd day: Me-sure

         We draw the final design as "superman" theme.  And We finalized the measurements. We also consulted our design to sir Oro. He said that we should give more details to the design because it looks so plain.
         While George and Alec are adding more details to the designs, Steph was cutting the top-thing of the artifact. Steph suggested the using of cellophane for the effects. And the group agreed.
                                                    

3rd week: C-0-M-P-A-R-T-M-E-N-T

Since we're through with the 1st task, We were assigned to make a compartment for a flashlight. The compartment is a modified building. The challenge is: There is a wood-thing where the wires and batteries should be put on. There is a sensor that when it gets dark, (of course we need flashlight) the sensor will sense that its dark that will make the LED glow.
The primary materials needed are wires, 5-7 LED's and battery. Good Luck to us. And of course, God Bless. :)

1st day: New design

We discovered that our electric shiz last week got lost.
We have to make new design because we realized that the design is not good for the battery and we don't feel it. We choose again design from the ten designs and ended up nothing chosen so we draw again and make one. We cut it until the bell ringed.


2nd week

In this week, we are able to finish the artifact. It's so sad because all our efforts last week did not end up so well. Its lost somewhere because Alec misplaced it... Well, we have to move on...

3rd day: Cutting the illustration board

Yeah! We just cut it. We talked about stuff while doing it. It's fun!!!! We just cut till the end of the period. We finished it in that day(?) or the day after... I don't remember. But we did that within that week... but its not stuck together.

2nd day: Choosing and drawing

It took time to choose what would be the design...but still, we were able to do that within that period. We draw that in the illustration board until the end of the period... :)

1st day. The 10 Designs

We draw the 10 designs. That's so random. We were assigned to place the 2 straight lines and 2 circles to create the a good design for the key chain electric shiz. We were able to finish it for the same day... :)
                                               

1st week

This ain't easy doing these electric shiz. hahaha. But thankfully... we figured that out. :) :) :)
