Design Theory: Big Medium Small

Рет қаралды 177,070

Күн бұрын

In this video series, I ponder the theoretical side of design to determine the best methods for creating things that are appealing and unique. I'll deal with all aspects of the idea creating process and share potential tricks and tips that will make it easier for you.
Episode 2 is about Big Medium Small. The idea that design shapes should follow a basic hierarchy of size and adhere to specific ratios.

Big medium small, the rule of thirds, the golden ratio. It happens so often in nature. I'm so glad more youtubers are teaching it.

Wow. I am amazed. This here channel is what I needed. I felt a bit stuck in my learnings and art. Every drawing or painting I did took way to long to where I wanted it to be. But basically it boils down to figuring the puzzle as I went along. Constantly adjusting things. This helps me enormously. I am gonna focus on figuring out shapes first. And also try to loose detailing. Cuz my brain wants to do details apparently. Oh man! Thanks for giving us this channel.

So where did you learn Design Theory? More specifically, where did you get the information you provided in your other design theory videos? I need something to spring off of because searching up just how to get started has never been more of a chore than before, and I know your videos aren't enough.

well, close near and far. Also in landscapes you need to give things a size. so you need a man made structure, or something that is always more or less the same size to give scale information to the scene
