Friday's Lecture Notes

Composition: Overall, finished product. An organization of ideas/elements

Types of composition: Writing, music, visual, nature, dance, theater, drawing

Elements:
dot
line
form/shape
color
texture
space
value

This lecture gave me a nice overview of the elements, and was a good introduction to Gestalt which i found out has to do with the whole of a composition and the sum of its parts. It also taught me about the principles of gestalt which are
continuance-movement
closure- seing something that's not really there
proximity- space between
similarity-patterns and sizes
