Pattern-Elements of design that repeat itself in order to create rhythm.
Non-pattern: It is what it says. The opposite of pattern. Elements of design that create rhythm without repeating itself. I took this image at my friend Brandon's house. He has painted a wall in his room with chalkboard paint so that everyone can draw on it and leave him a message and i thought this would be a perfect example of non-pattern.
Movement/Dynamics: Movement that creates visual rhythm. I saw this poster down the hallway at peace and thought it would be perfect for dynamics. The image comes to life and moves
throughout the canvas creating visual rhythm.
Movement/Direction- When rhythm is moving in a specific direction. Usually by having a dominant visual path. In this poster there is a dominant visual path in the way that the images are laid out.
Emphasis/Focal point
Contrast- Extreme differences in relation to focal point. Characteristics such as large v/s small or light v/s dark. This is an example of contrast of large v/s small on focal point. I believe that the larger boat draws more emphasis based upon size verses the small boat.
Isolation- isolating an object in its placement helps to create a focal point that attracts the eye.
I thought this was a good example of isolation
because it not only creates a focal point but it also is a one point perspective which originates with a focal point.
Placement-When elements of design are arranged in such a way that it creates emphasis. In this example the elements are arranged in a way in which you could point to any specific thing and it could be a focal point.
Absence- is when no focal point is needed to attract the eye. I took this image standing over a vase of flowers. I knew in order for there to be no concentrated focal point that i should try to avoid circular or something in the dead center. When i think of an image that represents absence it reminds me of abstractness.
