Implied Movement in Design

















The poster above is an example of using implied movement in visual design. By applying diagonal stress in the poster, people tend to follow the direction of words. Moreover, we perceive movement because in Getalt law we expect to see patterns to continue. Variation on sizes of fonts also suggest change and movement even though nothing moves. This poster conveys the energy of movement. All the factors are working together to create a strong visual effect.




















This is also an example of implied movement. In the picture above , we can see that a girl is scratching her hair.
Lines around her hands suggeset the direction and the movement of her hands. Because of that, we can feel that her hands are moving although it is a static picture. The extra two arms tell the viewers the starting position of her arms and this enhance the movement of her arms. Also, depending on the context (her expression and lines), we can interpret that she is scratching her hair rapidly. The effect of this picture is very strong and clear.
