While I was doing my Photoshop design I was thinking about how I should compose my Concept Art to make it guide the reader to my characters. I had looked at the Golden Spiral to help me decide if I wanted to have this or Rule of Thirds. The Golden Spiral is a good composition to have as I could gradually expand on the detail, and have the main part of the art in the outer spiral. This could be very useful as I could have, in my final piece, the 2 characters in the concept art walking forward while there is animals in the background. Where as the Rule of Thirds has the main action in the centre of the image, and I think this could equally be useful as I could have the centre of the image having the main action or point of the image then the top and bottom third showing less detail but still guiding the viewers to the centre.
These are the 3 forms that are usually used in a image, there is the Dominant Form, Sub Dominant Form and the Subordinate Form. The Dominant Form usually has a large structure and mass and is the first thing a viewers eye is drawn to. The Dominant Form is mostly placed of to the side and never in the middle as it is meant to guide the viewer to the Subordinate Form and not just be the only thing a viewer would look at. The Sub Dominant Form is used to balance the Dominant Form, as there is something there of comparison and is usually smaller than the Dominant Form. It would typically be the next thing a viewer looks to after looking at the Dominant Form
