SUBMISSION: PROJECT 1 ( ACUPUNCTURE INFOGRAPHIC)
10:31:00 AMPROJECT 1: DESIGN DEVELOPMENT - ACUPUNCTURE INFOGRAPHIC
3:13:00 PMToday, I have my first critique session for acupuncture infographic.Unfortunately, I have to be absent due to some issue.
Below are my design developments :
First picture:
- I wanted to put human figure with joints / channels to represents the acupuncture points. It can be sitting down, lay down or standing.
- I roughly sketch my character to use in the infographic.
- There are few types of interactive that I wanted to use, such as :
- Pin a needle on an area so the notes will lift from the board.
- Move the pin along the lines.
- Flip / swing notes (open & close)
Second picture:
There are 2 different infographic board designs.
First design:
- There's a human figure sitting down on a chair protruded. The leg can be swing to side for notes underneath, there will be pin that can move along the line at the body part and notes will be lifted when you pin on the point.
- You can pin on either yes or no for segment " Are you afraid of needles?"
- There are informations surrounding the figure.
Second design:
- There's a human figure standing up. It is made of stack of cardboards with different sizes and shapes to create texture. The figure will indicates the acupuncture point. Other than that, few cardboards can be pull out to read the informations underneath.
- There's a segment, put a needle on the figure where you are likely getting pain.
- People can play "Don't the touch the wire" while reading the informations.
Thank you for reading. Have a nice day. ^___^
PROJECT 1: RESEARCH ON ACUPUNCTURE
12:31:00 AMOn the 29th of March, we were given a brief on the first project:-
' The Essence of Tranquility' - Info Graphic.
There were 4 types of therapies to choose, which were, Cakra, Reflexology, Reiki and Acupuncture.
Since there are 16 students in class, we have been divided equally into 4 groups. My group mates, which were Chiyan, Tares and Sylvester have to research about acupuncture therapy.
Each of us has to research on different sub topic such as:
- What is Acupuncture / Background information
- Characteristic & Belief
- Technique and principles apply
- Benefits of the techniques
- Side effects
- Other alternative therapies
I have been given a task to research on the characteristics, side effects of acupuncture and other alternative therapies. Below are my work based on the research:
