This is an image of a political rally in 1934, a staple of the Nazi regime. In your own blog post answer the questions below and include the image.
- How are vectors used in this image? What effect does it have?
Vectors are used in this angle to create complete Symmetry and 'perfectness', it creates the illusion that the Germans are in fact the master race and also gives the viewer a sense of power. The flags are vectors lines, these lines are leading up to Hitler making him the focal point (as he was). Additionally, vector lines separate the crowd form the Nazi soldiers in the far middle of the photo.
- Describe the composition of the image and what is tells us about the Nazis and Hitler.
Everything in the photo is organised and neat, it tells the viewers that the Nazis and Hilter are efficient
- How is symmetry used? What effect does it have?
Symmetry is used to create the illusion of the 'perfect race' not only are the Nazi banners are perfectly composed but the masses of people are also the same.
- What effect does this picture being in black and white have?
The absence of color represents the emotionless state of Germany, the color difference of the Nazi soldiers and the crowd creates a sense of a social hierarchy (hope vses abusive/evil power)
