Thank you. This opened my mind in a whole new level of understanding❤️❤️❤️

Here's a memo for myself when all this fades from my brain as we proceed with other projects. Maybe it's of use - and if there are mistakes in it, please let me know :)

Hi Sita! Really enjoyed your picture plane memo! I’m still learning perspective myself, so I could be off here, but I noticed something in the 'Above the PP' and 'Crossing the PP' cases that might be worth double-checking. I’ve attached a couple of images showing what I mean, based on the idea that true height is always taken directly on the picture plane. Let me know what you think, I'm still working through this myself!

Aw, what a happy little Plan Projection!

Here is my drawing, I learn, i can keep pushing the lines down. I will keep the same proportions, as the floor plan.

Great observation!

This is fun! I know that we’re not doing this because we’re gonna draw perspective like this all the time, but I’m wondering whether we’re doing this because it will come in handy a few times, or because it helps us when drawing perspective intuitively more accurately? either way I’m happy we’re learning this.

followed the video. pretty straight forward.

Take 2: Reasonably happy with this other than the very last part. I've tried multiple measurements for the braces but always end up with an ugly tangent in the back right-hand corner. Not sure how I would fix that, I have zero intuition for such things... Any-whosie! Off to the next demo!
Michael Giff
I honestly don't know why I'm so terrible at following basic instructions but... here I am. I can't get the last line to go on it's vanishing point without moving all of the other lines. Can I make corrections without blowing the whole thing up? Or is close enough fine? (it does not feel fine.)

This happens to me all the time when using vps - I think it’s really hard to be accurate enough. I just mark in all the lines from the VP to the corners and if they don’t meet i find a midpoint and use that so both are wrong but it’s near enough for me. If you’re just looking at your box without the VP constructions you’d think huh cool a perfect box in perspective. As a drawing it works. If you’re deisgning something where accuracy is life and death important, then I guess you’d redo it, but to me as a picture its good enough

This cleared up a lot for me, thanks for the demo marshall. I followed along to make notes and used as many colours as I could find and now I'm going to repeat until it sticks

I'm confused. Why do you start drawing a square first? I'm not sure what exactly an assignment is.
Smithies

I think the square is just a simple ortho shape to project into 3d
