1, 2, 3 point perspective photos due 3/18 (outlined on class blog)

Look over these as well
-Interactive model of linear perspective that allows one to move things like the VP in a 3D model and see the effects on the space. The site also has a a couple of other short videos, like one on Brunelleschi’s experiment 

-Good clear instructional video of artist Michael Lewis demonstrating linear perspective.  

-Short video of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCvt_Uo3rOw

-Fun video of  Ames Illusion (it has a Eastern European gypsy brass soundtrack, so yeah…)

-Video of use of perspective to create scale illusions in film, photo etc

-Video of built structures that play with illusion of perspective 

You will make a drawing in or around your home in 1, 2, or 3 point perspective. The final 18 x 24 drawing should be completed by 3/30. Do thumbnail sketches where you use linear perspective to represent your placement and specific point of view. If you are seated it should appear to the viewer that you are seated. If you are in a tree you should feel above the ground. This means you will need to figure out your horizon line and vanishing point while drawing in all lines extending to the vanishing point. Remember all lines running parallel into the distance will converge at the vanishing point.
