Difference between Isometric, Oblique and Orthographic Drawing (Individual)

Assignment:

You are to post your findings on the difference between Isometric, Oblique and Orthographic Drawing. State with illustration the difference between the 3 types of drawing. Remember to acknowledge the source or your findings.

Submitting your work...

1. Post on the blog that you have created earlier. Blog name: ADMT-Environment.

2. Give the title in your post : Difference between Isometric, Oblique and Orthographic Drawing.

3. Copy and paste the hyperlink of this particular post to the Comments section in this post.

Orthographic projection is

-a means of representing a three-dimensional object in two dimensions

-a form of parallel projection, where the view direction is orthogonal to the projection plane,[1] resulting -in every plane of the scene appearing in affine transformation on the viewing surface which is further -divided into multiview orthographic projections and axonometric pictorials.

Oblique projection is

-a simple type of graphical projection used for producing pictorial, two-dimensional images of three-dimensional objects.

Isometric projection is

-a form of graphical projection

-a form of axonometric projection

-a method of visually representing three-dimensional objects in two dimensions, in which the three coordinate axes appear equally foreshortened and the angles between any two of them are 120 degrees.

-one of the projections used in technical and engineering drawings

The Difference:

Orthographic projection is drawing 3D objects in a 2D picture while oblique projection is drawing 2D objects in a 3D picture while isometric projection is drawing 3D objects in a 2D picture such that  the three dimensions meet at a point and the angle in between any two of them will be 120 degrees.

Lesson 1 - Introduction to Art, Design, Media and Technology (Personal Reflection)

Assignment:


What does ADMT means to you?
2. What are the attitude that an ADMT student should have?
3. What are your aspirations as an ADMT student?
4. How do you think you can achieve your aspiration?
5. Sketch how the world would look like without art, design, media and technology. Describe briefly your sketch. [Take a picture of your sketch and post it on your personal blog.


To me, ADMT is the study of art, design, media, and technology put together into one course as they are related to each other and together, they can do amazing things. An ADMT student's attitude should be one that is easy-going and not criticize each other's ideas. I aspire to create with my group something that is of use to the people in the world and friendly towards the environment as well. I plan to achieve this by being more observant to nature and find out what needs to be improved in the society such that I can create a product that suits its needs. The picture resembles what the world would look like in the eyes if a human living in a world without ADMT--nothing.
