1) How are vectors used in this image? What effect does it have?
Everything is symmetrical in this picture with the vector lines of the signs and people giving the effect of making the viewer look at the middle or focal point which is Hitler walking up the stairs.
2) Describe the composition of the image and what is tells us about the Nazis and Hitler.
In the background there is thousands of people (general public) all perfectly lined up, in the middle ground is the walkway and all the soldiers facing the front holding the signs and in the foreground is Hitler the focal point of the whole picture. This is a high angle shot showing the viewer everything in the picture.
3) How is symmetry used? What effect does it have?
Symmetry is used with the Nazi flag signs, the people holding those signs, the people beside Hitler and the thousands of people behind him making on straight path down then middle. All of these things reflect the perfect order of the Nazi's and the discipline they had. It also draws our eye to the middle of the picture which is Hitler.
4) What effect does his picture being in black and white have?
It shows us it was taking long ago and also represents how ruthless and unforgiving the Nazi's were. We would to not be able to see this is there was colour in the picture. It also gives us the effect that they are very serious and drain all emotion from everyone.
5) Discuss the use of line in this image. What effect does it have?
There is the use of line with the Nazi signs going down the stairs, the people holdings these signs and the thousands of people behind Hitler all together but forming a perfectly straight line. Most shapes in this picture are all geometrical. This gives us an idea of the order and discipline they had.
