Project #1:
Shape: Here the rectangle shape is filled with glass. The rectangle is defined by lines, which are the wood frames, and the clear glass, which shows the rectangle shape.
Texture: Here is a picture of a sidewalk. Clearly the concrete has a real texture to the surface that shows strong up close.
Harmony: Harmony is the balanced use of similar element; here is a picture of a set of blinds. The individual blades are used throughout on a horizontal plane to complete the whole image.
Proportion: In this photo you can see the car in the foreground is quite large, while the car in the background is significantly smaller because of the distance between the camera and the car.
Movement: My iPhone camera couldn’t capture movement effectively so I got this picture offline. You can tell the car is moving by the blurred trees in the background. If the car was still then the trees would be clear.
Color: I chose this photo for the term color because it uses a variety of colors and a mix of primary colors of red, yellow, and blue.
Emphasis: I chose this photo for the term emphasis. This is an aerial view of a mushroom cap in a bed of green grass.
Variety: I chose this photo for the term variety, as random as this may look, this photo has a variety of objects on an empty beige wall.
Rhythm: In this picture you can see the rhythm used to complete the dresser. Each drawer is even in size and completes the box, which is a dresser; it also adds a design element, which makes it visually appealing.
Line: These lines are the lines on a dock. Depending on what way you stand they could be horizontal or vertical, however, in this picture they are vertical and straight. You know they are simply just lines because there is no depth.
Space: To describe space I took this picture. The two palm trees are the focus of the picture. In between these two palm trees is space. This fits together because the space makes the palm trees individuals.
Balance: This picture describes balance. The sidewalk has a focal point in the center and there is symmetry all around the circle. I couldn’t capture the whole circle because you would need a picture from above which I am too short for and had no way of pulling off.
Unity: I chose this picture for unity because you can really see every element of the project that makes up the total picture.

Fly on the Wall
by: Maddie Lewis and Jessie McKneelen
The bottom picture represents how the fly views the world. His vision multiplies the image he sees. the top is the fly that is looking out at the world before him.

Ranking of Perspective Project
1. Ashley
"Girl looking in the mirror" Number one because its done well, simple, and the concept is very controversial and interesting
2.Hazel and Z
"Porthole on a ship during war": i like the story behind it and the view point with the circle
3. Pasama and OJ
"Stage fright" I really like this one, good concept
4. Diana and Sophie
"Facebook addict": good, I like the blurring and different forms, a little confusing as to what social network it was in
5.Damian and Ariel
"Immigrant" didn't really know what it was at first glance but I like the gloom of the picture
6. Dan and Anthony
"LSD looking at City" editing is well done, unique idea, hard to tell at first
7. Mike and Hannah
"Texting While driving" i like the message and the white windshield, common however
8. Taylor and Kyle
"Ant before death" I like how the shoe is enlarged and angled with black and white, however it doesn't look like the shoe is going to hit the ant
9. Stephanie and Cat
"Goalie" The blur out is done well, confusing however
10. Nick and Ryan
"Pitchers Mound" could have added more (like the batter), I think it needed the
11. Ricky and Scott
"Defender on a Football Team"I don't think the corners help the image, attention to detail was good, layered images are good

Final Result:
Final Group Project - April 21, 2014
Group Roster:
Taylor Sanger - metaphor image, brainstorming
Hannah Cimon - point of view/double entendre/framing image, brainstorming
Scott Shuman - point of view/double entendre/framing image, and multi-frame/reduction form image, brainstorming
Maddie Lewis - life & death/implied sound image, brainstorming
Sophie Moskowitz - point of view/double entendre/framing image, brainstorming, putting all elements together
Synopsis/Common Theme:
Whether it is a scary movie, a romance novel, or just harsh reality - people face antagonists everywhere they go; some including nature, technology, other men, self, and so on. In our project, we focused mainly on man vs. man and man vs. nature.
Point of View/Double Entendre/Framing
The image on the left is coming from the point of view of an audience watching Scott during a tennis practice. However, in the right image, this audience then becomes a group of witnesses, as Hannah is strikes Scott with a golf club. These two different points of view create a double entendre, and exemplify the importance of framing an image; by adjusting the frame of an image by a little bit, the entire meaning of the piece can change. The picture was taken multiple times to get the best angle, and to create a visually appealing product that is easy to understand. It is an example of man vs. man.
Process:
Final:
Multi-frame/Reduction Form
The image is a depiction of earth, wind and fire. The images are basic, along with the shapes within them (playing off of the form reduction). However color is utilized in the image to make it stand out more and flush out the imagery. The image was created several different times, some with color, some without, some vertical and some horizontal. In the end, using color and putting it in a vertical orientation provided the best visual depictions. Earth, wind, and fire are three elements of nature. Hence, this is an example of man vs. nature.
Process:
Final:
Metaphor
According to Wikipedia, "'Elephant in the room' is an English metaphorical idiom for an obvious truth that is either being ignored or going unaddressed. The idiomatic expression also applies to an obvious problem or risk no one wants to discuss." The phrase may be a metaphor, however, in our project, it is portrayed literally. Along with this intentional twist is also the fact that this image may be initially perceived as man vs. nature, when in fact, it is actually man vs. man.
Process:
Final:
Life & Death/Implied Sound
These pictures symbolize life and death as well as sound depicted visually. The life and death is a smiling old man with life in his eyes. It is ironic because he is close to death, considering how old he is. The baby symbolizes life because it is young and has its entire life ahead of it. The baby is screaming which visually implies sound, while it also shows sadness and a little bit of "death" inside. The crying baby has harsh colors in the background and low light to represent dim and gloom. The old man is in focus with cool colors in the background to center his joy. This finished product is also man vs. man, because people can make other people both laugh and cry. The process for this image consisted of finding the best photos to make the implied sounds easily understood, and to put them together in a way that flowed and matched. Placing them next to each other was much more appealing than stacking them on top of each other.
