Week 6- Monocular vision

Intent-  the use and effectiveness of monocular viewpoint on a narrative

Content- an experimental narrative based on my research of monocular sequences 


Analysis of image 
-The image holds lots of emotion, as it looks like the man has returned home, perhaps from war 
- it is clear there is a strong relation ship between the people in the image a family) 
- it seems as though the artist wanted to focus on and draw attention to the emotion of the characters, as they fill most of the frame. 












We looked at different camera angles 

  • CAMERA RANGE (=the distance between the camera and object)
  • extreme long shot shot of, e.g. a large crowd scene or a view of scenery as far as the horizon“What is the effect of the ~?”
  • long shot a view of a situation or setting from a distance“the camera pulls away from the close-ups to a long shot of ………..
  • medium long shot  shows a group o f people in interaction with each other, e.g. a fight scene, with part of their surroundings in the picture
  • full shot a view of a figure’s entire body in order to show action and/or a constellation of characters
  • medium shot, mid shot, medium close shot shows a subject down to his or her waist, e.g. showing head and shoulders of two people in conversation
  • close-up a full-screen shot o f a subject’s face, showing the finest nuances of expression 
  • extreme close-up (shot)detail (shot) a shot of a hand, eye, mouth or object in detail
  • POINT OF VIEW (VIEWPOINTS) (= the position from which the camera is filming)
  • establishing shot often used at the beginning of a scene to indicate the location or setting, it is usually a long shot taken from a neutral position 
  • point-of-view shot, POV-shot shows a scene from the perspective of a character
  • over-the-shoulder shot often used in dialogue scenes, a frontal view o f a dialogue partner from the perspective of someone standing behind and slightly to the side of the other partner, so that parts of both can be seen
  • reaction shot short shot of a character’s response to an action
  • insert (shot) a detail shot which quickly gives visual information necessary to understand the meaning of a scene, for example a newspaper page, or a physical detail
  • reverse-angle shot a shot from the opposite perspective, e.g. after an over-the-shoulder shot
  • hand-held camera “What effect does the ~ have in the party scene?”
  • CAMERA ANGLES
  • aerial shot orhigh angle oroverhead ong or extreme long shot of the ground from the air 
  • high-angle shot shows people or objects from \ above, i.e. higher than eye level
  • low-angle shot or below shot shows people or objects from below, i.e. lower than eye level
we had to question What are our communication objectives for the test content were.What we want people to think or feel when they see it?
I decided to create a stream of illustrations focusing on nature and particularly on the colours within it. To do this I went to the park and drew several rough sketches, focusing on areas where colours stood out to me. I then re-drew the images with more detail and used spot colour to make certain colours stand out. 


For this project I went to the park and did some observational sketches. 






For the second park of the task we had to put the sketches into a composition and pick a subject which we would use as out intent. 

Intent- To portray the beautiful colours of nature 
Content- A book with 8 drawings inside featuring different aspects of the park 
Communication objective- I will use spot colour to highlight certain colours in nature. 








I drew the images in circles to represent exactly what I saw when I was in the park. I wanted the images to be very intricate and representative. I used spot colour against the grey of the pencil so that the contrast would accentuate the  vibrancy of the colours in nature.
