Responses of articles




Panting is a kind of war, is not a kind of relaxing method. This is the main point of this article. To paint a good painting is a challenge and the paper is battlefield. In writer’s perspective, painting contains strategies and there are so many things which should be thinking about. Writer divided these aspects into four sets of antonyms which are left and right, bottom and top, big and small and in front of and in back off.

It says that enemies always appear from left to the right. Not only western world has this thinking habit, most of the world has this thinking habit. In the painting world, this habit still exists. Another different from our daily life is the second set of antonym. Usually we used put important things at the top. For example, if something is important, people do it at the first usually. However in the painting world, never put important on the top. Big and small is a kind of comparison method which can makes important things extrude and get lookers more attentions. All up three is about two-dimensional plane. This article also tells us a method in stereo world which is “in front of” “in back off”.

In the beginning of second passage, writer use many words to describe one dunk by Professor J which is a nick name of Julius Erving. To be honest, I remember that dunk. I am a fan of basketball. Julius Erving could be describes milestone of dunking in basketball history. Even now, some dunking from Lebron James is similar with Julius Erving. However this dunking is after the rules of basketball become mature.

This passage is talking a lot about how the rules of basketball become mature steps by steps. In a way, rules can prove a sport become international and professional. From this passage, I learn a lot about how a sports become mature, how it developing into a world famous sports.

The third is talk about the faces in movie. How to make those faces more vivid and look more real is the main point of this article. In this article, it mentioned that face is very difficult to make because it has too many muscles to imitate, in addition those muscles do not touch the bone. In other words, you cannot use fake bones to support those fake muscles. People must create fake muscle one piece by one piece and make them connect with each other. Besides that, maker need to make the fake faces smile and have other expressions. In addition hair is also a very difficult part.  

In this article, writer provided real movie examples from Harry Potter and other successful movies. Movie special effects can make fake become real and make watchers believe. At the end of the article, even writer become a believer of uncanny valley.
