TPA-2000 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Isometric Projection
Document Summary
Illusion of space: conveying depth on a two dimensional plane, used by artists and scene designers, etc. to convey a feeling of space on a canvas, help envision 3-d set, volumea. The amount of space an object occupies: leftover area around a 3-d mass, sizea. 10. vanishing point: the convergent point where horizontal lines meet. 11. one point perspective: a single point place on the horizon line, all horizontal lines of the object angle off to that point, verticals remain vertical. 12. two point perspective: two points on a horizon line, use for showing the edge and two sides of a linear object. 13. multipoint perspective: different objects can have different vanishing points, if they are not lined up of the same horizontal or vertical line. 14. foreshortened or amplified perspective: special view that occurs when an item is pointed directly at the viewer. 15. equivocal spaces: purposeful ambiguity in space using transparencies to confse the vieweri.
