period 6-semester final

The reason I should be given more than a 50/100 for elements of art is because:
http://rchari2danimate.blogspot.com/2014/12/elements-of-art.html
  1. I demonstrated ability to use the computer software using microsoft paint,
  2. I demonstrated ability to understand the elements of art as I accurately described and drew all of them
  3. I demonstrated attention to detail as I wrote captions to describe how my paintings demonstrated the elements of art
I believe I deserve 95/100 for this project as this score reflects my effort.
The reason I should be given more than a 50/100 for principles of design is because:
http://rchari2danimate.blogspot.com/2014/12/principles-of-design.html
  1. I demonstrated creative ability to show the principles of design in an interesting way
  2. I demonstrated again my ability to use the various functions of microsoft paint
  3. I demonstrated my ability to complete my work when it is assigned, as I finished on december 18th
I believe I deserve 95/100 for this project as this score reflects my effort.

Principles of Design









In order:
Balance: Distribution of visual weight of objects, color, texture, and space
Emphasis: Part of the work that is meant to catch the viewer's attention
Movement: The path the viewer's vision sees through work to important area
Pattern: Repeating object or symbol
Repetition: Works with pattern to make work seem "active"
Proportion:creates feeling of unity when the various parts of the work relate well in size to each other
Rhythm: when one of the elements is used repeatedly to create an effect
Variety: Use of several elements to hold viewer's attention
Unity: Feeling of harmony between all elements of work

Elements of Art

LINE is a mark that is longer in one direction, and can be oriented in any way


SHAPE is a line or multiple lines that forms a closed figure
FORM is the use of two dimensional shape to represent 3 dimensional objects

SPACE is the area between and around objects

TEXTURE is the quality of a surface to be felt

12 principles of animation

  • 1 Squash and stretch- shows flexibility and realism of objects, as they deform upon contact
  • 2 Anticipation- Prepares the audience for an action with another action that reveals what will happen
  • 3 Staging- Guides the audience's attention to what the creator wants the audience to see
  • 4 Straight Ahead Action and Pose to Pose- represent the two different approaches to animation: straight ahead means drawing one frame after another in chronological order, while pose to pose means drawing important frames first then drawing what is in between afterwards
  • 5 Follow Through and Overlapping Action- represent a way to realistic way objects obey the law of physics, how momentum is conserved and different parts of an object can move at different rates
  • 6 Slow In and Slow Out- Shows realism of object's movement, as the object accelerates, and the object is slower at the start and end of its motion than in the middle when it is moving the fastest
  • 7 Arc- objects move in arcs because objects in real life objects move in arc trajectories
  • 8 Secondary Action- other actions occur alongside the main action to make the main action more realistic
  • 9 Timing- Timing refers to the speed of the object, or the number of frames it takes to draw a particular action
  • 10 Exaggeration- shows a wider more extreme form of reality, to clash with the expectations of the audience
  • 11 Solid drawing- shows objects in three dimensions with real volume and mass
  • 12 Appeal- makes characters more lifelike and realistic so that viewers are attracted to them
