Rare yet Impactful – Orthographic Projection in Films and Animations
- 082349872349872 2y agoNow I'll have to keep my eye out for shots that emphasise one-point or three-point instead of the common two-point perspective?
- addaon 2y ago"On one hand, no perspective shift is true to real life." I cannot rightly understand the perspective (oops) that makes this sentence sane. A previous sentence mentions "true angles, the true scale of objects, and the true relationships between them" -- but preserving the relative scale of physical objects seems a lot less true to real life than modeling more accurately the lens which is our only visual portal out to those physical objects. I think a lot of the content in this piece around the impact of orthographic projection is valid, but this bit sure threw me for a loop.
- pierrec 2y agoFunny to see more praise for the technical/artistic details of the Severance intro. I recently came across another domain specialist geeking over it, but on a completely different aspect: harmony. https://alpof.wordpress.com/2022/05/04/severance-main-theme-is-as-mind-blowing-as-the-show-itself/ https://alpof.wordpress.com/2022/05/04/severance-main-theme-... He dissects the chord progression into two "near-T6 transformations" and an "inverse Tarnhelm transformation". I followed along because I've been building my own tonnetz-based harmony experimentation tools. I'll just confirm that no matter how you cut it, it's a pretty wild chord progression.
