The document discusses techniques for creating the illusion of depth and three-dimensionality in two-dimensional images, including using converging lines that meet at a single vanishing point, as well as size variation where closer objects appear larger to simulate perspective. It asks questions about identifying these techniques in sample images, such as locating the vanishing point and areas with converging lines.

1. Depth How far forward or backward something goes.

2. Depth Look at these two images, which one has more depth? (which one goes back farther)? Why do you say that?

3. Two Dimensional Having height and width, but no depth.

4. 3. Does Simba look 3 dimensional?

5. Three-dimensional Having, or appearing to have, height, width, and depth.

6. 4. What does this picture have that the picture of Simba did not have?

7. Converging Lines Lines that come together at a point.

8. Vanishing Point The point on the horizon where all of the converging lines come together.

9. 5. Where is the vanishing point in this picture? 6. Tell me three places you see converging lines. a. b. c.

10. Size Variation A technique for making something appear closer or farther away. The closer something is the bigger it appears.

11. Perspective A technique for creating a picture that looks three dimensional on a two dimensional surface. Using a vanishing point and converging lines.

12. Size Variation 7. What part of this picture is closest to you? 8. What part of the picture is biggest?

13. 9. Is Leonardo using perspective? 10. Where is the vanishing point in this picture?
