Transcript 1 and 2 point perspective PP

Perspective
Drawing
What is this type
of drawing called?
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one and two point
perspective
A perspective drawing tries to show what something actually looks like.
Smaller in the
distance
Larger close up
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one
and two point perspective
What is this point
called?
A clue: the initials are
VP
Vanishing point - this is
where all lines appear to
meet
One - point perspective only
uses one vanishing point.
The line where the
vanishing point sits is
called the Horizon
ALL pupils will be able to draw a cube in one and two-point perspective
MOST pupils will be able to draw a cube and a cross in one-point perspective
SOME pupils will independently be able to draw a cube, cross and lettering in one
and two point perspective
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one and two point
perspective
TASK: Draw a cube in one-point perspective.
1. Draw a line across
the middle of your page
- this will be your
horizon
2. In the centre put a
small dot or cross to
show the vanishing
point
3. Draw the front view
of a cube
6. Add thick and thin
lines and rub out your
unwanted construction
lines.
5. Decide on the depth
of your cube then draw
horizontal and vertical
parallel lines
4. From each corner
take a light line to the
vanishing point.
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one and two point
perspective
Two-point perspective shows
objects edge-on.
It uses two vanishing points
NOT one!
WHY USE IT?
It gives a more realistic view of an
object or product.
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one and two point
perspective
TASK: Draw a cube in two-point perspective.
Explore what happens
when you place your cube
above, below and on the
horizon line!
1. Draw a line across
the middle of your page
- this will be your
horizon
2. Draw in two
vanishing points
3. Draw one side of
your cube - using
projection lines to one
vanishing point
6. Add thick and thin
lines and rub out your
unwanted construction
lines.
5. Draw two projection
lines to the vanishings
point for the base draw in the outlines
4. Draw in the other
side - once again using
projection lines
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw basic shapes in one and two point
perspective
TASK: Draw a cross in
one-point perspective
EXTENSION:
Draw a letter in one or twopoint perspective then add
tonal shading to it.
On your mini white board write down the
answers to the three questions below
What is the vanishing point?
The point or points at which all lines in a perspective drawing meet
What is the horizon?
The line on which most vanishing points sit - usually where the sky
meets the land
What is the difference between one and
two point perspective?
One-point only has one vanishing point.
Two-point is more realistic and has two vanishing points.
HOMEWORK

AQA Exam practice booklet
atch the image with correct descriptio
You have 4 mins!
QuickTime™ and a
H.264 decompressor
are needed to see this picture.
Vanishing point (one-point perspective) The
point or points at which all lines in a
perspective drawing meet
Vanishing points (two-point perspective) The
point or points at which all lines in a perspective
drawing meet
Horizon line
The line on which most vanishing points sit
(usually where the sky meets the land)
Construction lines
Faint lines that aid the construction of your
drawings. Usually rubbed out at the end.
Thick and Thin lines
An enhancement technique used to
improve drawings.
Colour Surround
An enhancement technique used to
improve drawings.
Tonal Shading
An enhancement technique used to
improve drawings.
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw complex shapes in two point perspective
TASK
1. Using the handout as a guide
create a 2 point perspective house
(the outside).
2. Add details to your work, such
as trees, windows and pathways.
3. Add rendering and
enhancement techniques such as
textures and tonal
shading to improve your work.
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw complex shapes in two point perspective
TASK: Draw a room in two-point perspective.
1. Draw a line across
the middle of your page
2. Mark in two
vanishing points at the
end of each line
3. Draw a vertical line
in the centre of the
horizon
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw complex shapes in two point perspective
TASK: Draw a room in two-point perspective.
40mm
1. Draw two diagonal
lines from your VPs to
meet the end of the
centre line
2. Mark a dot at the
40mm point on the
centre line
3. Draw construction
lines from your VPs to
the new mark
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw complex shapes in two point perspective
TASK: Draw a room in two-point perspective.
1. Go over your
construction lines to
mark on the celling and
the corner of the room
2. Draw two construction
lines from your VPs to the
base of your corner of your
room
3. Press over these
lines with a pencil to
draw in the floor
Lesson Objective
To be able to draw complex shapes in two point perspective
TASK: Draw a room in two-point perspective.
1. Rub out your
construction lines
2. Draw in windows
and doors - remember
to take the lines from
the VPs!
EXTENSION
Add objects to your
room, such as rung,
chest of draws etc...
