Tips Evaluasi Desain

noreply@blogger.com (Panji Alam S. "saiko-raito") — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 12:49:16 PDT

Ini adalah beberapa teknik sederhana untuk mengevaluasi desain:

Lihat adanya kontras atau laras.
Metode paling mudah adalah menggunakan laras, di mana digunakan warna senada dan kombinasi tipografi yang satu keluarga.
Selain itu juga bisa digunakan kontras, seperti warna komplemen dan kombinasi tipografi yang sama sekali berbeda (sans serif dan serif misalnya).
Keduanya akan menghasilkan emosi yang berbeda, laras terlihat lebih statis dan harmonis sedang kontras menampakkan dinamika.

Letakkan karya secara terbalik.
Di sini kita akan melihat karya sebagai karya visual tanpa makna.
Logo akan terlihat sebagai bentuk dan tidak kita baca artinya. Perhatikan komposisi, warna, jarak antar huruf, tampilan logo.

Tutup logo dengan tangan.
Lakukan penilaian apakah hadirnya logo membuat desain lebih baik atau malah sebaliknya.
Tutup mata dan visualkan logo di dalam benak.
Di sini kita mengetahui apakah logo mudah diingat. Coba gambar ulang logo tanpa melihat gambar asli, semakin mudah Anda menggambarnya, makin mudah bagi orang lain untuk mengingatnya.

Edarkan desain kepada orang-orang yang tidak mengikuti prosesnya.
Dengan cara ini kita akan jujur terhadap pengalaman, konotasi, dan selera publik. Lakukan ini dengan hati-hati dan gunakan sebagai panduan, bukan satu-satunya tolok ukur keberhasilan

Perkaya Kreatifitasmu

noreply@blogger.com (Panji Alam S. "saiko-raito") — Wed, 30 Sep 2009 13:01:44 PDT

Memperkaya kreatifitas dan kemampuan berpikir merupakan suatu perjalanan panjang. Ada beberapa saran yang dapat dilakukan untuk tujuan tersebut.

1. Membuat jurnal/catatan
Miliki buku catatan berukuran A4 dan pakailah untuk menulis. Setiap pagi segera setelah bangun tidur, tulislah tiga halaman tentang apa saja. Biasanya anda akan menulis tentang kegiatan hari kemarin, ide-ide, mimpi-mimpi, masalah-masalah, dan pikiran-pikiran acak.

2. Masukan segar secara teratur
Pikiran membutuhkan rangsangan. Masukan melalui indra akan tersimpan ke dalam ingatan/memori. Dengan memberikan masukan segar setiap hari, memori anda akan terpicu dan berkombinasi dengan masukan baru. Sewaktu-waktu anda akan memperoleh ide-ide dan pandangan-pandangan baru.

Bagaimana anda memperoleh masukan-masukan baru? Kerjakan sesuatu yang berbeda setiap hari. Dengarkan stasiun radio yang berbeda, baca majalah yang berbeda, lihat barang-barang baru di shopping mall, buka mata dan telinga anda, sentuh dan rasakan sesuatu.

3. Membawa catatan
Sebagai tambahan dari 3 halaman tulisan yang anda tulis setiap pagi, selalu bawa buku catatan. Direkombinasikan buku diary beserta alat tulis (pensil, pulpen).

Pakai buku tersebut untuk mencatat pikiran anda, ide-ide dan observasi sepanjang hari tersebut. Jadikan buku tersebut sebagai sahabat setia anda.

4. Mempelajari teknik-teknik baru setiap minggu
Tulislah teknik-teknik kreatifitas pada buku catatan anda dan latihlah setiap hari. Seperti halnya belajar bahasa asing, anda membutuhkan latihan-latihan sampai teknik-teknik tersebut menjadi kebiasaan anda.

Dimana anda dapat memperoleh teknik-teknik tersebut? Dari internet, buku, teman, tidak termasuk saya (he he he). Salah satu dari sekian banyak teknik adalah Masukan acak (Random input), dan Problem Reversal.

5. Santai !
Jangan biarkan tubuh dan pikiran anda bekerja keras terus. Sekali-kali santailah… Dengarkan musik sambil berbaring di lantai. Amati matahari terbit dan jangan lakukan apapun (bengong sajalah). Kendarai sepeda anda, pergilah berenang.

Adalah penting untuk menyegarkan tubuh dan pikiran anda dan biarkan pikiran bawah sadar anda bekerja. Memperoleh ide di kamar mandi atau ketika anda mengemudi sering muncul begitu saja. Tetapi anda tidak dianjurkan meniru Archimedes!

6. Belajar Menggambar
Beli buku belajar menggambar untuk belajar menggambar (memangnya untuk apa lagi?). Menggambar akan merangsang otak kanan anda yang berhubungan dengan problem solving dan pengayaan persepsi tentang dunia.

7. Belajar Peta Pikiran
Cara menulis biasa (terstruktur seperti tulisan ini) bukanlah cara terbaik untuk membangun catatan dan ide. Sebagai gantinya anda dapat mempergunakan teknik Peta Pikiran (Mind Mapping). Beli spidol berwarna, sejumlah kertas lebar, dan… buku belajar peta pikiran karangan Tony Buzan. Kembangkan simbol-simbol, ikon-ikon, dan perbendaharaan visual untuk peta pikiran anda. Menulis terstruktur adalah otak kiri, sedangkan peta pikiran adalah otak kanan.

8. Berpikir Asosiatif
Pikiran menyimpan informasi dengan asosiasi. Latih pengendapan informasi dengan berpikir asosiatif.

9. Cari tantangan
Buat tantangan setiap minggu. Bekerja pada suatu masalah baru setiap minggu. Eksplorasi sesuatu yang baru dengan tujuan memecahkannya atau menumbuhkan ide.

10. Tiru para jenius
Untuk menjadi kreatif kita bisa meniru. Pelajari prilaku orang-orang jenius, ide-idenya dan aksi-aksinya. Riwayat para jenius seperti Newton, Edison, Einstein dll, dapat anda peroleh di toko-toko buku terdekat setelah…. pesan-pesan ini.

I’ll be Lyric

I’ll be kimi no koto
Omoi dashite itanda
Tabidachi wo kimetanda ne
Together itsu datte ouen shiteru yo

Moshi kujikesou ni nattara nee
Heya ni komotteru dake ja dame sa

Machi wo aruite
Kyou no you na
Kimochi torimodoshite Oh Baby Try

Nando datte “Play You”
Yaru shika nain dakara

I’ll be kimi iro ni
Nuri kaete yukeba ii
Mayou koto mo sorya aru kedo sa
Together itsu datte ouen shiteru yo

Moshi kodoku ni makesou nara nee
Suki na uta wo kiite mite hoshii

Hito gomi ni
Magiretatte
Mitsuke daseru kara Oh Baby Try

Egao tte “Play You”
Chikara ni narun dakara

I’ll be kimi no koto
Omoi dashite itanda
Tabidachi wo kimetanda ne
Together itsu datte ouen shiteru yo

Itsuka dareka wo sotto
Aishite yuku toki
Mamoreru yuuki wo
Kimi no naka ni sodatete yukun da

I’ll be sasai na shitsubou wo
Kurikaesu tabi ni kitto
Yasashisa ni fureaeru
Jinsei wa suteta mon ja nai rashii

I’ll be kimi iro ni
Nuri kaete yukeba ii
Mayou koto mo sorya aru kedo sa
Together itsu datte ouen shiteru yo

ENGLISH TRANSLATION

I’ll be I’ve been recalling
About you
You’ve decided on your journey right
Together You have my support no matter when

If there ever comes a time when you feel like giving up
Don’t simply coop up in your room

Walk on the streets
Find back that feeling
Which you felt on this day Oh Baby Try

Over and over again “Play You”
Because there ain’t any other choice but to do it

I’ll be You just have to
Paint it into your own colour
Though there will definitely be uncertainties
Together You have my support no matter when

If there ever comes a time when you feel like you’re losing to loneliness
Listen to the songs that you love

Even if you are
Lost in the crowd
You’ll be able to find it Oh Baby Try

A smile is “Play You”
Because it’ll become your strength

I’ll be I’ve been recalling
About you
You’ve decided on your journey right
Together You have my support no matter when

The time when you find yourself slowly
Beginning to love someone
The courage to protect that someone
Will grow in you

I’ll be Each time you look back
On those little disappointments definitely
You’ll be able to feel the gentleness
It seems life is not something to be thrown away

I’ll be You just have to
Paint it into your own colour
Though there will definitely be uncertainties
Together You have my support no matter when

KANJI

I'll be　君のこと
想いだしていたんだ
旅立ちを　きめたんだね　
Together　いつだって応援してるよ

もしくじけそう煮なったらねえ
部屋にこもってるだけじゃ　駄目さ

町を歩いて
今日の用な
気持ち取り戻してOh Baby Try

笑顔って “Play You”
チカラになるんだから

I'll be　キミ色に　
ぬり　変えて行けばいい
まよう　こともそりゃあるけど差
Together　いつだって応援してるよ

もし孤独に負けそうならねぇ、
好きな歌を聴いてみてほしい

人ごみに
まぎれたって
見つけだせるからOh Baby Try

笑顔って “Play You”
チカラになるんだから

I'll be　君の事
重い出して痛んだ
旅立ちをきめたんだ　ね
Together　いつfだって応援してるよ

いつか誰かをそっと
愛して行くとき
まもれる　勇気を
きみのなかにそだていぇ　湯君だ

I'll be　ささいなしつぼうを
繰り返すたびにきっと
やさしさに触れ合える
人生わ　すててた　門じゃない　らしい

I'll be　君色に
塗り変えて行けばいい
迷うこともそりゃあるけど差
Together　いつだって応援してるよ

INDONESIAN TRANSLATION

I'll be Aku sedang mengingat
Tentangmu
Kau sudah memutuskan jalanmu kan
Together Dukunganku selalu bersamamu kapanpun

Jika suatu saat kau merasa ingin menyerah
Jangan dengan mudah mengurung diri di kamarmu

Berjalanlah di jalanan
Temukan kembali perasaan itu
Yang kau rasakan hari ini Oh Baby Try

Lagi dan lagi “Play You”
Karena tidak ada pilihan lain selain melakukannya

I’ll be Kau hanya perlu
Melukiskannya ke dalam warnamu sendiri
Meskipun pastilah akan ada ketidakpastian
Together Dukunganku selalu bersamamu kapanpun

Jika suatu saat kau merasa dikalahkan oleh kesepian
Dengarkan lagu yang kau sukai

Meskipun jika kau
Tersesat di keramaian
Kau pasti bisa menemukannya Oh Baby Try

Sebuah senyuman adalah “Play You”
Karena itu akan jadi kekuatanmu

I'll be Aku sedang mengingat
Tentangmu
Kau sudah memutuskan jalanmu kan
Together Dukunganku selalu bersamamu kapanpun

Pada saat kau menemukan dirimu perlahan-lahan
Mulai mencintai seseorang
Keberanian untuk melindungi seseorang itu
Akan tumbuh dalam dirimu

I’ll be Setiap kali kau melihat ke belakang
Pada kekecewaan kecil itu tentunya
Kau akan dapat merasakan kelembutannya
Tampaknya hidup bukanlah sesuatu yang layak dicampakkan

I’ll be Kau hanya perlu
Melukiskannya ke dalam warnamu sendiri
Meskipun pastilah akan ada ketidakpastian
Together Dukunganku selalu bersamamu kapanpun
