Visual composition Slideshow - Celina Iwaskow

It’s a basic element of design. It can help the readability,
appearance, and message of a design. They organize, texture, guide
the eye, provide movement, make a statement, Convey universal
meanings. It’s a mark connecting two point's. How we get from
point A and to point B gives it distinctive character and appearance.
They can be long or short, straight or curved, horizontal, vertical or
diagonal, solid, dashed, thick, thin, or different widths. The endings
can be ragged, blunt, or curved.

It’s a basic element of design. Alone or in
combination it can convey universal meanings,
guide eye, or organize information. The three basic types are
geometric, natural, and abstract. Geometric are often symmetrical.
Natural are often irregular and fluid. They can be man-made or
found in nature. Abstract are stylized or simplified versions of
natural.

Shape is only two-dimensional,
form is three-dimensional. You can hold a
form, you can walk around it and
sometimes walk inside too.

Everyone responds to color differently. It effects us Emotionally.
Different colors evoke different emotions. Warm colors are yellow, red,
and orange. They’re associated with blood, sun, and fire. Cool colors are
violet, blue and green. They’re associated with snow and ice.

Words to know are:
 Hue: refers to the name of the primary colors
 Value: lightness and darkness of it
 Intensity: the purity or saturation of it
 Monochromatic color: use of one color where only the lightness and darkness changes
 Analogous colors: colors that are adjacent to each other on the color wheel
 Complementary colors: colors opposite each other on the color wheel

It’s always part of our designs. It’s the
visual or tactile surface characteristics of a piece. It
can come from the paper we use. Can add visual
textures through the arrangement of lines and shapes
and the use of photographic images of specific surfaces.

We live in a world of depth . We look around and somethings are closer
and some are further away. Artists can show this by using size and vertical location
(easiest way to show depth is to vary the size of objects), overlapping (when an
object is in front of another object we perceive them as further back),
detail/aerial or atmospheric perspective (objects further away have a less distinct
contrast and closer objects will be clearer with sharper contrast), and linear
perspective (the idea that all lines converge on a certain point. Often the most
important object or person in the picture will be located there.)

When light hits an object it creates a
shadow. Light and dark areas in an image create
contrast that shows volume. The direction of the
light source affects our feeling towards it.

We can’t actually show motion so we have to use tricks.
There are six different ways. Anticipated movement: figures
portrayed in unstable body positions are used to it feel like motion
is imminent. Fuzzy outlines: when things move very fast we see
them as blurry. Multiple images: showing multiple over lapping
images gives us the impression of motion. Optical movement: your
forced to look around the picture dynamically in order to see all the
elements. Optical illusions: it’s based on the repetition of geometric
forms which cause your eye to produce motion when there isn’t any.
Rhythm and movement: rhythm is the way your eye moves
throughout a picture, it’s created by repetition of elements.

Mass equals size. Everything you create
has a physical mass. It’s the actual dimensions
of the piece. Everything also has their own
mass compared to the whole piece.

It can also be called value. They both refer to lightness and
darkness but color isn't important in tone. It's defined as the intensity of
lightness of darkness in anything that's visual.

Words to know:
 Shade: a color with black added
 Tint: a color with white added
 Tone: a color with grey added
 Value: the degree of lightness or darkness

It refers to the lightness or darkness of a certain
area. It can be used for emphasis. Variations in it are used to create
a focal point for the design of a picture. Gradations of it are also
used to create the illusion of depth.

It's the area provided for a particular purpose. It can have
two dimensions or three dimensions. It includes the background,
foreground and middle ground. It refers to the distance or area
around, between or within components of a piece. There are two
types positive (an object) and negative (around and between the
objects).


There are three types symmetrical: when an image is
perfectly balanced and evenly divided), asymmetrical: when an
image is off-center or created with odd mismatched elements
(including number), and radial: elements come from or swirl around
in a circular or spiral path. Normally part of the design is arranged
so that it's balanced across the page.

In design it provides a focal point for the
piece. It's a way of making the most important
element stand out. It’s sometimes called
dominance. You can create it by changing font or
image size, placement of objects, or using contrast
of colors.

It refers to the relative size and scale of various
elements in a design. The most universal standard of
measurement is the human body. We judge the size of
objects by that measurement. Architectural spaces
that are made to impress people are usually scaled to
a size that makes you feel small. This principle is often
used in public spaces. It’s also applied to corporate
spaces.

Lots of different kinds of writing have visual
elements. Grids allow the designer to build page-
to-page consistency into them. Readers expect to
find things in the same place on all the pages. Text
always has a consistent look to enhance
readability.

It’s a way to make objects in a piece seem as if
they're related to each other. There’s many way to do
this. Some ways are proximity: it's the simplest method
and it helps us see a pattern, repetition: it's used to
promote unity by repetition of color, shape, texture, or
objects can be used, and continuation: the most subtle
method of unifying a work which involves the continuation
of lines, edges or directions from one area to another.

It occurs when two elements are different. The
greater the difference the greater the contrast. The
key is to make sure the differences are obvious. There
are four methods difference in size, value, color, and
type. it adds interest to the page and provides a way of
emphasizing what is important or directing the reader's
eye. on a page without it the reader doesn't know
where to look first or what's important.

One of the easiest ways to create a visual structure
and give your piece an organized feel is to space items
according to their relation to one another. Related items
should appear closer together. This way the spacing itself
serves as a visual clue as to what's related and what's not and
as to where one piece of information stops and starts.

It means "to change the character" of an element,
to make it different. It’s the complement to unity and is needed to
create visual interest. Without unity an image is chaotic and
"unreadable;" without variety it's dull and uninteresting. Good
design is achieved through the balance of unity and variety. They
need to be similar enough to look like they belong together and
different enough to be interesting.
