  1. Elements and Principles Consultant: Susan Gillespie External Client: Heather Suwinski Project 5: Visual-Based Instruction Across the Curriculum MEDT 7485

  2. Standards • L6-8RH7: Integrate visual information (e.g., in charts, graphs, photographs, videos, or maps) with other information in print and digital texts. • L68WHST2: Write informative/explanatory texts, including the narration of historical events, scientific procedures/experiments, or technical processes. • a. Introduce a topic clearly, previewing, what is to follow; organize ideas, concepts, and information into broader categories as appropriate to achieving purpose; include formatting (e.g., headings), graphics, (e.g., charts, tables) and multimedia when useful to aiding comprehension

  3. Standards • SS6G1 The students will locate selected features of Latin America and the Caribbean. • SS6G5 The students will located selected features of Canada. • SS6G8 The student will locate selected features of Europe. • SS6G12 The student will locate selected features of Australia.

  4. Objectives • Students will describe elements of design using photographs. • Students will describe principles of design using photographs. • Students will create a storyboard.

  5. Essential Questions • What does it mean to be visual and media literate? • How do you use the elements and principles of design to create art? • What is photography? • How is photography a visual language? • How do you communicate with images? • What characteristics make a successful photographer?

  6. Seven Elements of Design • The word “elements” implies, these are basic units of visual communication. • Space • Line • Shape • Size • Pattern • Texture • Value

  7. Space • Positive space is filled space; negative space is empty space. The red is positive space; the white is negative space.

  8. Line • Lines may be straight, angular, or curvy. They may be thick or thin, continuous or interrupted.

  9. Shape • Shapes can be inorganic and organic. Inorganic shapes and forms are precisely geometric whereas, organic forms are more natural, as found in nature.

  10. Size • Size is the relationship of the area occupied by one shape to that of other. Size can make things shout with importance or make them whisper. Christ the Redeemer is shouting.

  11. Pattern • Pattern is about duplicating. Can you see the vertical and horizontal stones repeating?

  12. Texture • Texture can be three-dimensions, or bas-relief, such as a sculpture, textiles, mixed-media art or even thickly applied oil or acrylic paint. Can you feel the texture?

  13. Value • Value refers to tones of light and dark.

  14. Seven Principles of Design • The principles of design can be thought of as what we do to the elements of design. • Focal Point • Contrast • Balance • Movement • Rhythm • Perspective • Unity

  15. Focal Point • Focal point is the most important thing visually on any layout. It focuses the eye’s attention.

  16. ContrastContrast is a large difference between two things to create interest and tension. Lines, shapes, tones and textures can have contrast. Here is an example of color contrast.

  17. Balance • Balance in design is the visual weight. Balance seeks equilibrium in a design. Here is example of symmetrical balance.

  18. Movement • Horizontal lines communicate movement flowing left to right or right to left. Vertical lines tend to communicate stability.

  19. Rhythm • A regular repetition of elements to produce the look and feel of movement.

  20. Perspective • Perspective is another kind of movement in the sense of movement into the distance or through a foreground, middle ground and background. The foreground is what you see in front of the main subject in a photo.

  21. Unity • Unity means all the parts of the design work together, and everything looks like it belongs together.

  22. Give it a try. • Look at the following pictures and identify as many elements and principles of design. Be able to explain. Refer to your notes if needed. 1 2.

  23. Steps to create a storyboard • Open up the Word Application to get a blank document. • Go to Insert tab and insert a table. (Your table will vary depending on the size of the storyboard.) • For the first row, label slides as: number, slide, narration, and credit. Adjust your rows and columns accordingly. • The first slide is the title page slide. • The second slide is a brief introduction.

  24. Steps to a storyboard continues • Label the first column as number slide. Number all your slides. • Label the second column as slide. Insert pictures under this column. • Suggestion: Save pictures in a folder and then right click to insert pictures. • Label the third column as narration. Write your story here to help explain the pictures. • Label the fourth column as credit. Remember to give credit to all resources. • Keep repeating the steps.
