principles of design.
The fundamentals of principlesof design are first emphasis and the

Introduction to Design Principles
The principles of design are essential rules that a designer must
follow to create an effective and attractive composition.
Fundamental principles include: Emphasis, Balance and Alignment,
Contrast, Repetition, Proportion, Movement, and White Space.
A design does not have to strictly follow these rules to be considered
“good.” Some exceptional designs may ignore one or more principles to
create a unique and effective work.
1. Emphasis
Emphasis involves making a particular element stand out to capture the
viewer's attention.
2. Balance and Alignment
Balance ensures a design is evenly distributed, while alignment arranges
elements in a visually appealing manner.
3. Contrast
Contrast makes a design "pop" by creating space and differences between
elements. It ensures readability and visual interest by making the
background significantly different from the elements.
4. Repetiton
If you limit yourself to two strong typefaces or three strong colors,
you'll soon find you'll have to repeat some things. That's ok! It's
often said that repetition unifies and strengthens a design. If only one
thing on your band poster is in blue italic sans-serif, it can read like
an error. If three things are in blue italic sans- serif, you've created
a motif and are back in control of your design.
5. Proportion
Proportion relates to the visual size and weight of elements in a
composition and their relationship to each other. It often helps to
approach the design in sections.
6. Movement and White space
Movement controls the flow of elements in a composition, guiding the
viewer's eye from one element to the next and effectively communicating
the intended information. It creates the narrative of the work.
White space, or negative space, is the empty area around the elements in
a composition. It allows the design to breathe, often enhancing the
overall quality of the composition.
Exercise
This week we will use two black and white photos provided by the
teacher to re-color with adobe photoshop.

Exercise 2 :
REFLECTION
This week, we learned more operation knowledge of Photoshop. The selection body of the quick selection tool greatly improved the efficiency of mask selection. Moreover, after the practice in the past few weeks, I feel that I can finish the task faster
