Challenged to explore all forms of design skills - graphic, interface and animation. Using the design themes for the HONOR Talents Global Design Awards 2023, create, produce and submit artwork compilation for one of the competition’s category:
Choose one of the design themes:
1. Cultural Prosperity · Celebration: A Totem of Renewing Festive Culture
Create with important traditional cultural elements of various countries, such as Lunar New Year, Mid-Autumn Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Christmas, Mother's Day, Day of the Dead, Halloween and Eid al-Fitr.
2. Renewal of life · Return: Contemplate human beings' relationship with all things.
With sustainable development as the starting point, your creations must incorporate the concepts of environmental protection, biodiversity, energy conservation and emissions reduction within the design details.
I chose "2. Renewal of life · Return" and won "The Best New Talent Award" with cash prize USD700.
Expand the design developed for the competition by emerging the context with creative technology to express “playfulness” at the heart of the experience.
Think of creating design and content that creates awareness, educates your audience and triggers playful reactions.
Think of designs that reflect a playful experience for the audience to encounter through your output/artwork/prototype.
Then, think of existing or emerging technologies that can connect to your audience and create conversation from the playful experiences.
Start by researching an area of interest and identify your audience. What are their wants, needs, expectations, capabilities? What playful design approaches and concepts are most likely to engage their attention?
