Digital Productions 120 - “ There are many basic concepts that underlie the field of design. Just like any good rules, they have to be learned and understood before they can be broken. Keeping these fundamental rules in mind when designing a graphic art project will make your project much more interesting, visually appealing and easy to consume.” – Robin Martin, 2014
Although other principles of design exist, the 4 that we are going to focus on and discuss are Contrast, Repetition, Alignment and Proximity.
Using the internet as a resource, define each of the 4 design principles. Why are these principles important? Find an example of a photo online that uses each principle. Save each photo.
Another important concept that you will come across in Digital Imaging is the Rule of Thirds. Give a detailed explanation of the Rule of Thirds
