Dimension/Depth #2 Magazine


One of the most important elements of magazine is a picture, both an actual photo and drawing. In order to make them look a 3-D image, several kinds of perceptual cues work together.



First one is an actual photograph.  Overlap, Relative Size, and Liner Perspective (One-Point Perspective in this case) expresses dimensional space on this 2-D Photo. And, when you look at the right-corner picture with people, they are much bigger than a window and sofa behind them. This represents depth of this space here, also. 

The next one is drawing. 


Here, Overlap, Shadow(Tone), Relative Size, and Liner Perspectives (Two-Point Perspective) work together. I think mostly in this image Tone makes it looks 3-D objects since it will be just line construction without shadow. It is the different case from photos. Besides, Tone express the depth in details of this image.
