1. Name three ways using color enhances the chromatic metamorphosis from sequence to sequence?
Student Critiqued: Raymond
Three ways Raymond’s color use enhances the chromatic metamorphosis from sequence to sequence are:
1. Used pale colours in the middle of the sequence to enhance the transition between the two bright images at the beginning and end of the sequence.
2. Used colours known more as cold and sterile emotionally at the beginning of sequence and moved to colours known as more emotionally nurturing and warm at the end of the sequence.
3. Used a dominant palette of blues and greens that kept the image transitioning between two natural environments.
3. How is perspective used in the overall composition? What type of perspective is used and how does it enhance the composition and/or the transition between steps?

Raymond,
I feel as if you had used perspective to your advantage, great job. Your pieces perfectly show the use of one-perspective in your images but you also convey“3-D” qualities by showing the sky and water between the pillars. It could even be said that you also convey two-point perspectives as well. The corners of the back image make two subtle vanishing points when looking at the letter ‘P.’ The pillars are the (parallel) linear lines that guide the viewer’s eyes to the ‘P’ and it as where all the pillars converge at one point where the vanishing point appears. The ending image subtly conveys another one-point perspective; the greenery converges “upwards” towards the peak of the water fall. Overall, the perspective used aids the viewer throughout the image; it guided my eyes towards the areas that had (what I felt) a lot of detail. It also brings balance to both the beginning and end of your metamorphosis. The middle image really doesn’t portray much perspective, but suits well in the transition. The change in the perspectives made the transition interesting; I was still able to subtly see the pillars that guided the viewer’s eyes to the future vanishing point and main focus of your last image. Good job!
4. Describe what is potentially happening between the steps. How effective is the continuity between the seven steps, explain? If the continuity is not effective why is it not working
A wave appears to hit a beach and turn into a different scene. The continuity is done very well. Over the first couple of frames the beach is slowly engulfed with a wave. The scene gets lighter and the waves begin to appear.
Question 2 – Raymond
What type of balance is used in the metamorphosis and what is the point of focus? Does either change between the steps or do they remain the same throughout the steps? Be specific in answers.
The balance in this sequence of images is by point of focus. The arrangement of the pillars draws attention to the “P” in the first image. Likewise, the trees in the last image draw the viewer’s attention to the waterfall. These two focal points are consistent through out the sequence.
I think you made effective use of balance in the sequence of images. Good job!
3. How is perspective used in the overall composition? What type of perspective is used and how does it enhance the composition and/or the transition between steps?
I like use of one-point perspective throught the metamorphosis. Under the bridge and the waterfall both have one vanishing point and that was important to you. I can clearly see your perspective. The use of three objects and how the aligned with a line towards the vanishing point. I think the overall compostion of your piece is great.
5. What do you think of the quality of the design and composition? Is there enough contrast between each of the seven images to get a true feeling of chromatic metamorphosis, explain? If not also explain?
I believe there is contrast on the slides. It starts with the first image and slowly gains more contrast as the slides build to the final slide. The overall design and composition are great. This design does a chromatic metamorphosis.
