Week 10

Lecture :

Topic - Intro to After Effect

Our lecturer presented us an overview of how Adobe After Effects is used for motion picture compositing, animation and visual effects. In addition, he demonstrated for us how motion graphics animation creates and tells a story by working with rasterised and vector art. Additionally, he revealed to us the difference between the composition layers in Adobe Photoshop and Adobe After Effects. Adobe Photoshop is used to transform still photographs into moving images whereas Adobe After Effects is used to animate layer sequences from various elements and platforms.

SUMMARY: 
The poster "Look Through The Lens & Beyond" portrays photography as a bridge between reality and imagination. The central figure showing a girl who is me holding a camera with a cosmic vortex in the lens represents how photography allows us to see beyond the ordinary and uncover new dimensions of creativity. The surrounding surreal landscapes, including vibrant hot air balloons, glowing forests, and dreamlike rivers, symbolise the endless possibilities that come with exploring different perspective. It encourages viewers to use photography not just as a tool to document life but as a means to dive into the unseen, embrace wonder, and expand their creative horizons.

Gestalt Theory Gestalt theory is a set of psychological concepts that describe how the human brain naturally organises visual information by viewing things as a whole rather than individual pieces, creating a coherent and meaningful image, even when presented with complex arrangements.  (i) Similarity Similarity refers to the concept of having multiple elements in a design share visual characteristics such as colour, shape, or size, giving the impression that these elements are related and belong to the same group. Resulting in a sense of visual unity and organisation within the design.  Sky and Water I Artist : M.C Escher Year : 1938 Medium : Woodcut print Size : 43.66 cm x 43.82 cm  Example : The artwork "Sky a...

It features a close-up of a woman's face as the main focus. Her skin is pale, almost ghostly, and her eyes have a weird red hue. The most noticeable element is a large moth covering her mouth, with its wings spread wide. The moth's body bears a distinctive skull-like pattern. The background is plain and fading, so the woman's face and moth are the most prominent aspects. The title of the movie "The ...
