Everything about Perspective & Correct Mathematical use of Vanishing Points | Perspective Drawing

What is a Vanishing Point? How does Perspective work? These questions will be answered complete and utterly and with great detail. If you just came here for the QUICK USE OF VANISHING POINTS: Go to 24:38. You can ignore the talk about infinite spheres. The View Plane is basically an infinite paper on that you draw, and that contains the Vanishing Points, that mostly are outside of your image/canvas. That should do for you to understand everything. If you just came here for the REALLY QUICK USE OF VANISHING POINTS: -The triangle of Vanishing Points has no angles greater than 90°. -The middle of the image is the orthocenter of the Vanishing Point triangle. -If you draw too far, it looks distorted. 0:00 Introduction 2:00 Motivation & Paradox 5:26 Vanishing Points 9:16 Projections 10:16 Parallel Perspective 11:48 Linear Perspective 15:00 View Plane 16:22 Fisheye 20:00 Paradox Solution 21:26 Application of Linear Perspective and Vanishing Points 21:35 How many Vanishing Points are there 24:10 1-, 2-, 3-point-perspective at one glance 24:38 How/Where to place the Vanishing Points on the View Plane 25:28 Place Vanishing Points, look where the Canvas is 28:01 Why 60°? 31:38 Place Canvas, look where the Vanishing Points can be 33:00 All rules causes at one glance 34:13 90° cases and how to deal with far away Vanishing Points 36:44 Horizon 39:02 Facts, Tricks, Implications 39:26 End Over 200 hours, I don’t know if I ever again make a video... :0 Nsio: Stephen Leonardi: Derivation for the formula for the radius: Thank you!
