The Rules of Art"I would chiefly recommend, that an implicit obedience to the Rules of Art, as established by the practice of the great Masters, should be exacted from the young Students. That those models, which has passed through the approbation of ages, should be considered PERFECT AND INFALLIBLE guides; as subjects for their imitation, and NOT THEIR CRITICISM. I am confident that this is the only efficacious method of making progress in the arts; and that he who sets out with doubting, will find life finished before he becomes the master of the rudiments. For it may be laid down as a maxim, that he who begins by presuming on his own sense, has ended his studies as soon as he has commenced them"
(Sir Joshua Reynolds, Discourse One, 1769)

BeautyUnity With Variety
Below we have two same-size rectangles, both of which have had two lines drawn through them.
The rectangle on the left is divided evenly, yielding us four panels of the same size and shape while the one on the right creates four differently shaped panels. Both images achieve unity, with the panels seeming to belong properly with the whole, but only one has variety. The first image is much less visually stimulating to our eyes and as a result does not hold our attention as long as the second image which has something for our eyes to explore.
The images you create should hold your viewer's attention, should give them something to explore. A good notion to remember is, "Anything in the center is boring" so if your design does not require it be in the center, then it should not be.
This is as good a time as any to introduce the concept of Dominance. Design is an act of premeditation, there is a goal in mind, and to achieve our goal we need to focus on that which brings us closer to doing so. You will hear over and over again that, "something MUST be dominant." This is especially true when part of the goal is that your idea be understood as quickly and as clearly as possible.
Although the images above are simple, it is clear that no one panel is dominant in the first image, and that the large rectangle clearly dominates the second.
"There is only room for one big idea in a design." -Scott Kuntz

Beauty
The Aesthetics of Beauty
The Greeks believes that things can only exist in one of three states:
Simplicity
Beauty
Ugliness
Yes, I am sure many of you are going, "Huh, what is beautiful about a rectangle?" well, think about the words you might use to describe the first two images. The square might be described as even or balanced, but we quickly run out of words with which to express what we see because it really is just a simple object. The rectangle however gives us more opportunity for description with words such as sleek, slender, long, stable, sturdy, resting, etc... which, when compared to the simplicity of the square, might be considered beautiful.
So now we get to the Ugliness of the third image, and once again I hear the question clearly, "Isn't that just another rectangle?" Yes, it is, but for the Greeks Ugliness was the state of not being Beautiful or Simple, and our third image is certainly not the same as either of the first two.

Horizon Line Position
Choosing the horizon line position is crucial for creating the proper emotionalResponse for the viewer.
High Angle position places the viewer above the subject. This will give a sense That the viewer is dominate.
The Eye level position places the viewer and subject on equal terms.It allows the viewer to connect with the subject.
Low Angle places the view below the subject, allowing the subject to appear dominate.
![Page 14: The grand tradition v007](https://reader033.fdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061111/545474f1af7959e7518b749e/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
High angle placement puts the narrative focus On the ground plan and looks down on the subject.
Eye level focus the viewer on the Foreground. But it should never be CENTER.
High Angle places the NarrativeFocus in the sky plane. It forces the Audience to look up at the subject.

Vertical Line: this line transmits the idea of stability, honor, power, strength, and awe.Perfect for showing a strong company image that is stable for the long haul.
Horizontal Line: this line evokes the idea of peace, calm rest and quietude. This can be a nice contrast to a dynamic sequence to help Cleans the pallet. Oblique Line: this suggest motion, movement clash action and combat. This line can be used to emphasis a dynamic moving changing company.

Choosing the Best Angle
Choosing the best angle to shoot a subject is related to it’s shape and ultimately its Silhouette.
A Silhouette is the most instantly recognizable characteristic of the thing or the action. This is crucial in audience recognition factor.
Typically a Good Silhouette is shot from an angle that shows the most sides. It is an Angle that gives the best impression of depth.

One side only tells part of the story.This could be a cube or a rectangleIt is a BAD Silhouette.
Turning the object to show 2 sidesIs better but it still does not yieldThe results needed and is a BAD silhouette.
Showing 3 sides is the best solution.It shows depth and clearly is a GOODSilhouette.

Newtonian Color Wheel 1666
Isaac Newton allowed sunlight from a small, circular hole to fall on a prism, producing a rainbow of color. Although the production of a rainbow by a clear crystal was known to the ancients, it was Newton who showed that the colors did not originate in the crystal, but rather were components of sunlight. This array of colors he called a spectrum. Here is how the great man explained it:
“And so the true Cause of the Length of that Image was detected to be no other,than that Light is not similar or Homogenial, but consists of Difform Rays, someof which are more Refrangible than others.”
Other people had played with prisms before. What Newton did next, however, had no precedent. He passed the emergent spectrum of colors back through another prism and recovered the pure white he had started with. Further, Newton tried to disperse each of the spectrum's seven colors, but he found them to be pure.
Years later, in Opticks, Query 29, he gave the following mechanism for the fact that the colors refracted from the greatest amount (violet) through blue, green, yellow, orange (which he does not mention) and to the least amount (red):
"Nothing is more requisite for producing all the variety of Colours, and degrees of Refrangibility than that the Rays of Light be Bodies of different Sizes, the least of which may take violet the weakest and darkest of the Colours, and be more easily diverted by refracting Surfaces from the right Course; and the rest as they are bigger and bigger, may make the stronger and more lucid colours, blue, green, yellow, and red, and be more and more difficultly diverted.”
Once Newton had categorized the Visual Spectrum, he then joined the two ends of the color spectrum together to show the natural progression of colors. In his initial color wheel he chose seven major colors to relate to the seven planets and seven musical notes of the diatonic scale: red (C), orange (D), yellow (E), green (F), blue (G), indigo (A), and violet (B). He then twisted this straight bank of the spectrum into history's first color wheel. Since that time other basic hues have been added, based upon the Red, Yellow Blue (RYB) Primary Color Model.

The Final Warning
And be assured, that if this power is not acquired whilst you are young, there will be no time for it afterwards.
There is one precept, however, in which I shall only be opposed by the vain, the ignorant, and the idle. I am not afraid that I shall repeat it too often. You must have no dependence on your own genius. If you have great talents, industry will improve them; if you have but moderate abilities, industry will supply their deficiency. Nothing is denied to well directed labor: nothing is to be obtained without it!
