Tips and Techniques for Situation Test

• Choose theme – Try to understand and grasp the form and shapes around you and how it can be transformed into an object. It’s about getting inspired and working according with a ‘theme’. Here is a quick tip to make this easier for you. Choose any theme; say I have to make a flower vase on the theme “spring forest”.
• Write down keywords that depict mood – The first thing to do would be to determine your keywords that would depict the mood, warm, jovial, tender, enthusiastic, peppy, graceful etc.
• Decide a colour scheme- Decide a colour scheme which would be earthy colours here since the theme is spring forest.
• Note down the element – Now, not what all elements can come under the theme i.e., trees, flowers, butterflies, birds etc.
• Write – up – Write up is very important for making your design more impressive and expressive.

Say, I take an element ‘butterfly’ and take inspiration from it. Note that my ‘theme’ and ‘inspiration’ are two different things (inspiration comes from an element which comes under the theme). Now, it’s up to your creativity on how you use the butterfly to depict the mood or keywords which in turn will reflect the theme. Like you may get inspired from the shape of a butterfly and make the flower vase or get inspired from the prints and colours which you can incorporate in the flower vase. In short, the design process would be like.

• Focus on Neatness – Focus on ‘neatness’. Even a lamest-possible-idea might look fine if it is executed neatly while some of the most creative-out-of-the-box-ideas might look ugly and shabby if not executed well.

Now, transform the element into a 3-D object with the given colour scheme and should depict the keywords.  It’s done! Just remember this mantra and mention all this in a write-up. I bet the jury would be more than impressed to see your design/working process.   NIFT calls students, three times the number of seats, for the final and qualifying round of Situation Test. NIFT Situation Test is held at the various NIFT Centers all across the country.
Remember that you have a time limit. Hence, do not get over-ambitious either.
