Week 13 Blog: Visual Techniques
The two designs I have are of the BMW GINA Concept Car and the Wii News Channel Interface. Where the two designs differed in techniques used, there was transparency used in the tail brake lights that emanate through the skin of the BMW GINA Concept and many overlapping parts of names of areas and the articles gave the Wii News Channel a usage of opacity. A mixture of distortion and subtlety is exemplified by the BMW GINA Concept in its skin's "wrinkles" as you realize, "Hey, a car's not supposed to wrinkle!" Whereas a mix of Fragmentation, Activeness, and Depth play on the interactivity suggested by its multiple icons of articles, motion implied by the pointed finger, and the dimension created by a stack of articles and shape of the globe. What the two designs share are depth, denoted by the BMW's curves, lines and capturing of different shades of light on different angles of the car.
