MAGI Studio 2 Week 2: statement of intention

RATIONALE
Perspective is a visual phenomenon. In perspective, in order to solve the problem of
summarizing all three-dimensional images on a plane, a transparent plane is placed
upright between the eyes and the object, through which the scene is observed and
depicted. The image formed when the line of sight intersects the projection plane is called
a perspective. As a concept of expressive design, perspective is widely used in painting,
animation, game, architectural design, industrial design and other fields. Therefore, I
wonder what life would be like without the right perspective, how it would be different from
the way we live now, and how the world would feel to us visually without the right
perspective.Therefore, I intend to use two-dimensional animation to explore a world view
with a false perspective relationship.
CONTEXT
The idea for the animation was inspired by a situation picture which was published in the
Sydney Gazette, Australia, in the typographical style of the Middle Ages, with the words
"This is how they draw these lousy tables" . In my opinion, this picture shows in a
humorous way some of the problems that can arise when the perspective relationship is
not accurate. For example, the plates and bottles on the table described in the picture fall
to the floor. While another example, painted by William Hogarth in 1754 shows
the wrong perspective logic. Although the scenery in this painting exists in real life, it
presents an unrealistic state due to the wrong perspective relationship. For example,
twisted buildings, figures of the same size in the distance and near, etc. In some
animation film, with the perspective weakened the beauty of the graph itself manifest, for
example, in "KELLS SECRET", animation production team express the forest by using
plane decoration style, they draw a circle with the main character as the center and the
trunk as the radius. As to the picture itself, the perspective relationship between
the trunk and the crown of the tree is wrong, but it brings the audience a sense of beauty
visually and creates an image that will not appear in life. Based on the examples above, I
want to show how the wrong perspective will affects with life, or what happens if there has
the wrong perspective in pictures.

RATIONALE
What will the world looks like/ what will happen when there has wrong perspective.
METHOD
I plan to use Procreate mainly to make this animation. In terms of animation style, I plan to
try clip painting and hand-painting. The application of this style can reduce the pressure of
adding animation to a certain extent, save more time and improve efficiency. For the color
of the animation, I intend to use black and white plus color. Live action materials such as
human hands that appear in the animation will be presented in black and white style, while
scenes (collage or painted) in the animation will be presented in color. The whole
animation is not a strong story, mainly showing a state of life under a wrong perspective or
some possible situations, so there is no specific hero, but one or two characters are
added as the situation requires.
OUTCOME
A two-dimensional clippicture-style animation intended to present the viewer with an
interesting world, exploring the possibilities hidden under wrong perspectives.
