1. Time And Motion

2. “All things move, all things run, all things are rapidly changing... On account of the persistency of an image upon the retina, moving objects constantly multiply themselves; their form changes like rapid vibrations, in their mad career... To paint a human figure you must not paint it; you must render the whole of its surrounding atmosphere.” --Umberto Boccioni, “Technical Manifesto of Futurist Painting,” 1910.

3. Actual Motion - Physical motion in which objects change their position over time. Kinetic Art - Works of art that are designed to move as part of their composition. (Greek kinesis, meaning movement) Camera Arts - Photography Motion Picture & Cinematography Video

4. Examples of Actual Motion Mobile Kinetic Sculpture

5. Implied Motion - Motion that is suggested or implied by the artist rather than by physical movement, such as through tightened muscles in statues, or by the use of diagonal lines. Repetitive Imagery - A method of implying motion through repetition of imagery that changes slightly from image to image, such as in a comic book. Figure Repetition - A method of implying motion or passage of time through showing figures in a series of different positions or situations to tell a narrative.

6. Examples of Implied Motion

8. Illusion of Motion - The sense that a static object or work is in the process of moving. Multiple Exposures - A method of providing the illusion of motion through the rapid presentation of photo-like sequences of moving objects. Blurred Outlines - A photographic and artistic technique of blurring the outlines of objects to create the illusion of rapid motion.

9. Examples of the Illusion of Motion

10. Time and Motion Design You are to create a final design that conveys a sense of time and motion. Choose a simple idea and brainstorm. Idea examples: a person or animal walking or jumping. It could be something as simplistic as illustrating your book or chair being moved. Create 12 thumbnails: 6 thumbnails for Implied Motion (i.e. repetitive imagery, strong diagonals, comic book-like narrative) 6 thumbnails for the Illusion of Motion (i.e. multiple exposures, blurred outlines) Turn in both the Final Design and the Thumbnails.
