We all know that each circle has its own jargon. Of course, the art circle also has its own jargon. Today, we summarized some professional terms of specific design disciplines, analyzed their meanings, functions, usage, etc., and made a summary of the terms in the art circle! How can you not know some "jargon" in the art and design field?
Summary of professional jargon of art and design:
Graphic design - leave white space
"Leave blank" is a creative technique and space rule commonly used in graphic design and painting. Graphic design is a discipline closely related to modern commercialization. Usually, a 2D picture needs to express rich content, which requires designers to handle the proportional relationship between blank space and other elements as a whole.
White space is not to leave white, but to leave space to guide the audience's eyes to the most important part of the picture. There is no strict proportion of the layout rule of leaving blank, so as to create a flexible and free sense of space.
In fact, as a design technique, blank space can be used not only in graphic design works such as posters, packaging, books, but also in other fields Art Design The font size, line spacing and color balance of Chinese font.

Even in the students' Collection layout It is also an important reference basis. Sometimes the collection of works does not need to be "filled" for the purpose, and the layout content with clear priorities and loose degrees can give people the most comfortable visual experience.
Fashion design - pattern making
Typography is a very important part of clothing design, which determines whether the creativity of drawing on paper can really become clothes to wear. Clothing pattern printing requires designers to know the structure of each part, and be able to clearly split geometric figures and draw them on paper, which has certain requirements for designers' technological foundation and technical ability.
People often don't think that pattern making is also the work of fashion designers. In fact, they can't talk about it separately. Pattern making is also known as fashion structure design. We can see from many fashion brands, such as Issey Miyake, Martin Margiela and Vetements, that fashion can never talk about creativity without structure.
The study of structural design and tailoring technology is a basic skill that every fashion designer needs to master. Some students will think that they only need to concentrate on the creative part of the collection, and then give it to the tailor. But if they do not understand the fabric, structure, and process, it is difficult to draw a true texture. In addition, the tailor cannot fully express your ideas.
Therefore, it is very necessary for students to make clothing works by themselves. In the process of practice, they can further adjust their design drafts to achieve the consistency of the collection of works.
Fashion Design - Profile
As a shell covering the human body, clothing needs to be complex and smooth, and this external line is called silhouette. As the basis of clothing modeling, silhouette determines the basic framework and overall impression of clothing. Therefore, understanding silhouette and using silhouette are also the skills of every clothing designer.

The silhouettes are roughly divided into eight types according to the English letters: H, A, T, V, Y, O, X, and S. The proportion of each shape corresponding to the waist, shoulder, and hip of the human body changes. Different times also have their own popularity.
For example, the large silhouette, which has been popular recently, is divided into two main shapes. The first is H-shaped, flat shoulder, barrel shaped hem, and then magnified by 2 or 3 yards. Many men's suits are the same shape; The other is T-shaped, with exaggerated shoulder pads, and the hem retracts to form a wide upper and narrow lower overall shape.
When creating, students can also use different silhouettes to express different characteristics of the times, and at the same time, they can also combine the use of materials. Large silhouettes generally need to be supported by materials with a certain thickness, but they can also use superposition, or composite cotton to create a light sense.
Interaction design -- interface
The definition of interface is simply the presentation on the screen of all electronic products, that is, the media when people interact with electronic products. Interaction design is a very comprehensive emerging discipline, which not only reflects the visual function of electronic products, but also includes the way of user experience.
It's like the interface designer and interaction designer build a house together. The interface designer needs to consider what kind of decoration style, wall color and other visual effects; Interaction designers need to consider the layout of the house, lighting, convenience of people's life, etc Everyone's output and goal are the same.
The most important characteristics of interactive works are visibility and usability. Students must not ignore the relationship between the two when designing works. The interface determines whether to attract users to explore the content, and interactive design is to fully preset whether users can have a good use experience.
Film Score
The imagination of sound is infinite, and horror movies without sound are no longer scary, so a good soundtrack for a movie is half the battle. The soundtrack of the film is not only the theme song, but also includes various background sounds that set off the atmosphere and blend into the film plot in various forms.
There is no way for movies to describe emotions in words like novels, but visual scenes and sounds will become more appealing, and film music has become a very important part of modern music.
The soundtrack in the movie is also divided into two parts, one is functional, which can guide the audience's psychology through the clever integration of music and plot through songs, performances, etc., and the other is realistic, such as the sound of footsteps, the sound of opening the wrapping paper, the sound of chewing, and other special effects that can restore the real scene to match the plot.
For the creation of students, the works of ordinary students are often short, and the funding is limited. The music theme that can be used for the score is very extensive and operable. Making good use of the score is a way to directly express personal characteristics and quickly improve the quality.
Movie Script
First of all, there was the script before the film, and the script created the film. A play can be adapted from a novel, but it is not a novel. Fiction tells a story to the reader in the first person or the third person, while the script needs to bring the reader to the center of the story, and let the audience feel a story through scenes, characters, actions, and dialogues.

The script also has its own structure. Students should learn to tell stories in the way of script. First, we need to establish a number of full character characters, and use some short time to describe the character, characteristics, major events, etc., to pave the way for the characters' next behavior in the story. Then the theme and contradiction are introduced. Of course, there can be different scenes and multiple story lines. The story also moves from the beginning to the climax and finally to the end, which is a complete structure.
If you want to learn how to write a script, you can start by learning how to watch a movie. When students see a good movie, they can try to use language to break down the scene, record the dialogue of good characters, and see how to buy foreshadowing for the ending in the early stage and how to naturally lead to it later.
Learning to write a script must start from practice, recording scenes, accumulating music materials, practicing drawing sub shots, and overall design of each element of the story are all accumulation processes.
Photography --- Color Temperature
Color temperature means that in physics, the temperature of an object rises and the color changes accordingly. This feature also enables us to control the atmosphere of the whole picture by adjusting the color temperature. Therefore, it becomes the basic light source knowledge and color mixing skills in photography.
Different from our understanding of color temperature, in real life, when the temperature of an object is higher, the color will be colder, and the lower the color will be warmer. For example, when the temperature of cast iron rises, the iron block will slowly change from yellow to blue.
According to the color principle, we also know that the three primary colors of light and the three primary colors of ink are a group of complementary colors, which can make photos more transparent through color complementation. Therefore, when we want to reflect the warm sunshine in a photo, we will choose to increase the color temperature, while if we want a quiet and mysterious atmosphere, we will pull the color temperature slider to the blue area.
Pure Art Experimental Art
In fact, "experimental art" does not belong to a certain art form. Its form of expression is not limited, but is defined by the artist according to the original motivation of artistic creation. Therefore, "experimental art" has timeliness. For example, AI technology and new media technology belong to "experimental art" in the contemporary era, but it is not necessarily ten years later.
Under certain conditions, experimental art, avant-garde art, avant-garde art, performance art, and new media art all belong to the same kind of art category, belonging to pure art, and are known as the most free art.

As the most influential discipline of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in recent years, the experimental art major is based on the interdisciplinary, cross media and cross-cultural teaching ideas, aiming to cultivate creative talents in the new era, which is also the essence of the experimental art major.
Architectural Design Aerial View
Aerial view is the most commonly used method of expression in the discipline of architecture. Aerial view is to assume that we stand at a certain point on a high place and use the perspective principle to draw the scene seen from a high place. This overhead perspective will show a more complete building construction, and also give the viewer a more direct and clear understanding.

The aerial view, whether hand drawn or computer drawn, tests the perspective relationship of the author, and requires a clear understanding of the specific plane size and proportion. From the plane view to the aerial view, it can also show the basic design quality of an architectural designer.
The function of aerial view is to clearly show the spatial relationship of buildings. This purpose has also developed from 2D to 3D exploration in recent years, such as making proportional solid models. As a way of presenting works, students can refer to it.
Interior design - dynamic generatrix
Moving line is a professional term for architecture and interior design. It refers to the routes that people walk in space for different purposes. Whether the division of these routes is reasonable and in line with the living habits of the residents is the ability of the designers to divide functions.
By Lyuba Tartova
The dynamic line can also be divided into large dynamic line and small east dynamic line. The large dynamic line refers to the way for residents to enter and exit the functional area for different purposes, while the small dynamic line refers to the way for users to connect these functional areas.
When planning the moving line, designers should estimate the functions of the site in advance, know what needs are high, what activities are linked together, and what areas they want, so that the designed moving line will be more reasonable.
A professional term is like a label. We can find our insiders by labels, but labels will not affect its spread, but will attract more people to pay attention to this field because of these most accurate expressions. I also hope that students can master and flexibly use these "professional terms" and become qualified "insiders"!
