The picture plane is like a window that helps solve perspective problems in drawing.

Marshall thanks for the picture plane and planned projection video explanation. You used parallel lines to find the VP's. Is there a similar method to working out the FOV without a protractor or does that come down to angle familiarity through practice using a protractor?

really useful, seems that it is necessary to determine the position of observation

Great work! Yeah, I can’t wait to learn about the cone of vision from Marshall rather than than the books because anything outside of it seems to be very distorted

This answers so many questions about right angles, like why one VP is often out of the image, or why the line moves so fast when it’s close to the centre then really slowly when it’s far away. Rn I think I’m putting the viewer too close in the 2-3 min quicksketches due to speed but I want to be able to do some of this mentally to help with cuboid intuition

I appreciate the people who spent the bulk of their lives figuring this stuff out for us so we could learn it in a fraction of the time later, I feel a little spoiled.

I cant remember where but i remember a shot of the construction lines of a sphere in the last few lesson videos, i took a stab at it after i got more comfortable with the technique in this lesson.
Katherine Cleary
The line about books on perspective is spot on.

20 % off is good. Its just a pitty swedish VAT is 25% so now it does allmost cost what it says from the start.🙃 I don’t like that VAT.
