OPTION 1
Find 2 examples of design relating to your planned course of study and professional goals showing IMPLIED MOTION IN DESIGN, where motion/movement is suggested and is key to the success of the design but does not actually take place.
These designed works can be graphics in a 2D display (print or digital media) OR tangible objects such as product designs.
No stills from motion media. These can be photographic images you take yourself or from magazines/books or the Internet.
For each of the 2 examples, include at least 1 image and a minimum of 8 explanatory sentences identifying how implied motion operates in the design.
Here, again, we have cyclists on an indoor tract. These bikes are especially super light for this type of racing. Actual movement is focused on and toward the cyclist himself and the wheels turning. With each revolution of the pedals, the bike propels forward around the track. The motion is acceleration, the track is still and the camera is still, therefore the camera lens is trying to capture a moving object passing through the scene.
Track bikes often use very slender frames, suggesting for aerodynamics. Handle bars are also placed in a way to keep the cyclist in as thin as form as possible to reduce drag. Rear wheels, like the ones above are made out of carbon fiber and and usually single piece (no spokes) to reduce rear end drag, rear wheels being the driving wheels of the cycle. The graphics on the rear wheel represent a detailed segment, it allows people to tell when the cyclist is in full throttle or slowing down. Other graphics include lines along the frame, to suggest movement forward, you wouldn't have a bike with arrows going backwards, defeats the purpose.
These bikes are fast from factory, but take a real athlete to get them up to speeds unimaginable by the average human.
