This is the first lecture on digital photography and imaging, so Mr. Fauzi introduced us to photoshop and how we will use it for the class.

The Poster expressed:
This is a design based on the movie “Howl's Moving Castle.”
The design contains highlights of various movie scenes in it.
This design is unique as it contains small palettes of color(orange, off white, gray, and black). This tells me that we don’t need a lot of color to make a good design.

Reflections
In this task we were asked to look at pinterest and it's been a while since I actually use it. Although this task aims to let people know what kinds of design that we like, I also reminded on how we should always look for inspiration and reference from other people's work. Looking for them is a part of the designing process, which is why it's very important.
