(27/09/2021)
For this week's lecture, Mr. Fauzi explained a few key points before we started on our next project. Hence, below are few key points that we should follow before developing the poster. 

1. Research about the topic
2. Define the concept (Title, Slogan, Details and Call for Action) 
3. Start developing the design projects 

INSTRUCTIONS
TUTORIAL 
As for our tutorial this week, we were assigned on recoloring black & white photo prepared by Mr. Martin. We were given a video demonstration as well as the slides to follow step-by-step.

REFLECTION

This exercise helps a lot as it gives a better understanding on how to edit pictures from black & white to coloured pictures. I appreciate that Mr. Fauzi and Mr. Martin prepared us a video demonstration and the slides step-by-step. I never thought it's gonna be easy but surely it takes a lot of time and patience to get the right tone and color for the picture. Definitely, this exercise gonna help me a lot in my design process be it this subject or other subjects.
