Which is more appropriate for your idea: a flat design or a spatial design?
I'm leaning more towards a flat design, since I want my message to be very direct and I don't want the viewer to be distracted.
What happens when static (unmoving) and dynamic (moving) shapes are used together in a design?
The illusion of motion is created. In addition, if the static and dynamic shapes are overlapped (i.e. in Mulan when the fires [dynamic] are lit on the towers [static]), then it creates the illusion of space as well.
Choose one artist in the reading who you feel was most successful in their use of motion and space and write your comments on him/her.
I feel that Thomas Eakin was pretty successful in his portrayal of "Double Jump". You can clearly see the different phases involved in taking a double jump. Due to audience involvement, one is able to almost feel the jump themselves, as it is something that many people can relate to. Immediately, the viewer's eye is caught on the first image of the boy and then the eye follows every single snapshot, which allows us to process that it is indeed a jump.
