Presentation on theme: "What is one point perspective?"— Presentation transcript:

1 What is one point perspective?
Do we see it everyday? Where do we see it?

2 Most of you may already know what it looks like or have been told the same thing about a railroad track or a road that recedes into the distance. We all know that things get smaller as the recede in the distance.

3 What does this remind you of?

4 What about looking at it from a different perspective
What about looking at it from a different perspective. It does not always come from a normal view.

8 One point perspective looks like this:

9 The first thing we need to create one point perspective is a “Vanishing Point”

10 The vanishing point usually rests on the horizon line:

11 All parallel lines to the horizon line, lines that do not intersect are Horizontal lines.

12 Lines that intersect are called perpendicular lines.

13 Lines that are opposite to horizontal lines that go up and down are vertical lines.

14 Lines that are neither horizontal nor vertical, that have a slanted direction are called diagonal lines. If they converge to a vanishing point like in this drawing they are called orthogonal lines

15 This is what 2 point perspective looks like :

16 Notice that one point perspective boxes show a flat plane of the cube and two point perspective shows the corner of a cube. 1 point perspective 2 point perspective

17 First we will practice drawing cubes in one point perspective and if we have time we can try drawing letters in one point perspective so you can try shapes other than a cube.

18 This will all lead to a project that will look like this:

19 1. After some practice drawing cubes on printer paper we will start this project with you practicing drawing buildings you relate to. They may be your home, a church or a city building you might like. Just do a few rough sketches in your drawing pad or on printer paper for reference. 2. All your buildings will bleed from the outside of the circle meaning we will never see the very bottom. Think of it as laying on your back in the middle of a city block and looking at the tops of the buildings from an ants point of view. 3. You will first draw a circle. From there you will place your vanishing point. 4. All building sides, their lines will recede to that vanishing point. 5. All windows must recede to that point. Remember they will get shorter in length the further away from you they go into space. 6. You will start by drawing these lines very lightly in pencil. Just use a simple number 2 or mechanical pencil. These lines will either be drawn over in a black colored pencil or marker or they will be erased. 7. When all lines are drawn you will add in patterns such as brick or designs in windows or even signs if you wish. 8. you are to be creative with this, If you want to add King Kong do so but make it in perspective with the buildings. 9. You are to show contrast with the use of thick and thin lines. 10. You will finish it off with colored pencil and markers for a different kind of contrast. Be careful of color use with some of the markers as some may be too dark in value. Using maker and pencil does make for vibrant colors so feel free to mix mediums. 11. When you are finished you will cut out the circle and matt it on black construction paper. 12. The circle size must be 8 inches.

20 Lesson Objectives: SWBAT= Students will be able to…
1. Use 1 Point Perspective Effectively. 2. Include Personal Structures In Design. 3. Use Line Effectively - showing texture and variety in buildings. 4. Have A Balance Of Contrast In Their Art Piece.

21 Rubric for One Point perspective city in a circle, each item worth 5 or more points depending on the severity. Is the circle 8 inches? Is the perspective (overall) drawn correctly? Are features off in perspective? Did the student include patterns? Is there contrast? Do pencil lines show? Is the piece matted on construction paper neatly? Is the project late? Did the student do a sloppy job by rushing through it? Do lines vary in thickness?
