Since I've been in GAD I've learned several things from the class. Some including different composition techniques from photos, quick masking, information on copyright and more. Sometimes it's interesting to look at multiple images and see different elements of design composed into the image. Here are a few examples that I find interesting. This is a photo from Legend of Zelda Breath of the Wild. This image uses several visual elements that compose the photo. One example of an element used is the rule of thirds. The image clearly puts the person on the horizontal and vertical lines, immediately drawing the attention to him. Another element used in this image is contrast. The person is a darker color, with a shadow on him, contrasting with a bright, blinding sky. Another part of how contrast is a part of this photo is how the person and the rock and grass below him, are all in full clear high definition. The background, on the other hand, is slightly blurred, allowing the focus to stay mainly on the hero on the rock. This is a photo from Fortnite. This photo also uses several visual elements that compose the image. One example of an element used in this is emphasis. The photo emphasizes on the person on the left as he is placed on the spot where the eye naturally looks first (goes along with the rule of thirds), the person is wearing all black which contrasts with the rest of the colors of the image, and he is the largest thing on the whole screen.
