A Guide to UNREAL Camera Tricks
WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Forced Perspective
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Forced perspective is important because it allows filmmakers and photographers to manipulate the perceived size of objects within a scene, creating visual illusions where things appear larger or smaller than they actually are, which can be used to enhance storytelling, add dramatic effect, or achieve visually interesting compositions, especially when dealing with limitations like budget or set size.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: You will follow along with instruction and use what we have learned to create amazing photos using Forced Perspective!
For Part 1 of assignment...
