Anamorphosis Sundae


               
1. Describe the process you went through to change your object into the correct perspective to create the drawing. This is when you were in the lab.

The first thing we did, was research some pictures of things we could draw. Then we went onto photoshop and transformed the picture. We changed the scale  and made the top a bit bigger to change the perspective. After we printed our anamorphosis drawing out, we used grid paper to transfer it into our sketchbook.  we finished by coloring the values in with colored pencil, and adding the shadows.

2. How did distorting and stretching the object allow for you to create a drawing that would look different to the viewer?

The farther away you stand from something, the smaller it gets, so if you drew a normal picture, the top would look pinched.  Making the shape of the top bigger and looking at it flat would make it look like it's real and standing up.

3. What were the most important concepts in the project to make it successful?

You have to really stretch out the picture and widen the top or else the affect wouldn't work.
