When we compare a piece of art and the work of the graphic designer from a viewer's (user) perspective, it would be necessary for us to understand the difference between both kinds of visual enquiries. An artist creates art for self expression and the viewer has the freedom to interpret meaning out of the artist’s expression.
A graphic designer encounters lesser chances for self expression, baring a few exceptions like book covers or posters. Moreover, designers can never be physically present to explain their designed solutions to the viewer. Graphic designer has to visually communicate the clarity of the message, without being present in person, making it least ambiguous as well as achieve their sole goal of effective communication. You have to understand this difference before designing solutions and prioritizing the viewer’s perception and perspective.
Task 05:
In this task one has to predefine the numerical order (1 to 13) for the words of the previous exercise and the additional words shown in the figure 5.1 as per one’s own preference. This numerical order should be independent of the relationships they share with the keyword (name) and has no relation to the questions that were asked earlier. Your task is to define your own numerical order to the given set of words. Your solutions will be judged on the basis of your predefined numerical order.
So, first, you begin with assigning a number to each word, including your name. You will present your numerical order in the format that would be provided. Once the numerical orders are frozen write a description for each word consisting of 15 words. (Please revise your description to maintain a minimum of 13 words or maximum of 17 words). All descriptions have to be presented according to the predefined format. Create your solutions in the given format. Even though the viewers will be unaware of the numerical order while judging your solution, ensure that your solution makes them perceive the same numerical order which you had preset.
You are expected to come up with two solutions:
a. Define the order of 13 words without descriptions, use same font, and consider all three variables.
b. Define the order of 13 words with descriptions for each word. You have full freedom of using any font with additional elements of design to support your solution.
