Lesson 1: Intro. to Design Fundamentals

Learning Activity 3: Identifying Elements & Principles (1hr)
Choose the "busiest" layout from the 3 you used for the previous task (layout hierarchy) and on this, first in pencil (so you can rub it out) then in high-contrast marker pen, mark where you see "Elements" or "Principles" of design. Try to identify as many as possible in your chosen layout. Identify if it's an "element" or "principle".
The first movie, a Sci Fi action classic "The Fifth Element" has a fairly simple cover design featuring lead actors, a car chase in an obviously sci fi setting (cars can fly, whee!) with various quotations beaming praise about the subject matter as usual. Next to that is a 2-stage (or step, whatever) album poster of "Machinae Supremacy", a SID-Metal band. To the far right is "The Secret of NIMH", what takes classic Disney animation quality and turns it away from the usual cheery atmosphere and adds an immense dark overtone, such that it becomes more of an adult-orientated movie (that I highly recommend).
Fairly simple to follow the flow of how the posters have.

This time I chose the Secret of NIMH as the "busiest" layout, simply because it had the tension points in and around the poster, such as that of the left and right edge, and the characters overlapping various logos, words, and frames, etc.
