Rule of Thirds

     The Rule of Thirds is used to show dominance on screen for films. The tool trisects a frame vertically and horizontally into smaller parts, creating equal intersections that help balance the frames. Using the foreground and the intersections, you can see the importance of each bit of the scene, implying more power.
  Bringing a character into the foreground establishes the importance of of said character. While everything is focused, we usually look at the foreground first then the middle and background which gives the foreground more power. For example having two bottom intersections and two top intersections, the top will have the most attention and power.
      Center framing makes our eyes go to towards it instantly giving it more power than the rest of the screen.  Other factors involve the size between characters for example in the article in zootopia the scene with the rabbit and the ox, your eyes immediately turn to the ox since the size difference is big compared to the rabbit.
     The article was interesting yet confusing for me, since their is a lot of different things that go into making a scene, but I learned a lot of different things and different tactics filmmakers use to grab attention to specific places
         I think anyone who is interested in film and the different way of film should look into this article, the tactics and processes I believe are essential fo filmmaking.

Weekly stuff yahoooo

Hey y'all its Dwon/Dwonivan and I'm back from the dominican republic, it was a good time but also not great. Because of the trip, I've fallen super behind on the project like I'm still animating it sadly, which also means I'm definitely gonna have to pull an all nighter or two to finish it but it'll be worth it in the end.  I'm still kinda "scared" I guess about t doing the final project blog because with this project I barely used any references, well maybe enough? We shall see, but yeah don't be surprised if on Monday I'm still not done with the rough animation because it'll be a lot to do but I got this *dabs. I don't really have a choice anyway lol, it's either hand it in incomplete and get a failing grade or pull like two all nighters (not back to back ofc) and be able to finish it. I'd definitely choose the latter. The coloring shouldn't be too bad because my colors are probably gonna be mainly flat colors and stuf...

Timing

 Timing is essential when it comes to animation but also it helps you improve as an artist/animator as well. Animation veteran has sat down and taught us why timing is important and how it can also be fun to do also.     Timing involves how fast something moves and how long it stays still. Slowing an object represents weight, gravity, mass and speeding up an object adds speed, energy, and lightness. When working on timing, it is a good idea to work on the poses that you want in an animation, and number the poses as to where it breaks down, this allows you to know ahead of time if the rhythm is right and if the poses work out together or not.          Your key poses help set up how the rest of the poses will turn out, they aren't shown for that long, only for a quarter to half of a second but you can stretch out the time a little bit so your audience is able to see them. The amount of time a pose is shown can be different from any character depe...
