For our second assignment, we were to find pictures online and then explain the various Elements and Principles of Design within those pictures, such as with the photo below, I explained the following:
Elements:
Shape: Most shapes in the design are simplistic and easy to understand what they form in the picture.
Colour: The Soldier’s uniform, like all characters in Team Fortress 2, is simplistic, and almost entirely one colour, red or blue.
Size: A number of things are oversized, such as the grenades and the helmet, to exaggerate the solder as, well, a soldier.
Value: There is some gradient between the edges of the picture and the centre, the edges being darker while the centre is brighter.
Principles:
Contrast: Again, with the edges and background being much darker then the subject, they stick out.
Proximity: Everything in the cosplay is close together, the two grenades are right beside each other, and the Solder is holding his Rocket Launcher close to his body.
Through this project I learned how to better explain how a picture is composed, and how to compose one in an organized way.
