In Art for panel 2, I have decided to go with arched patterns within my images. For this, I chose to focus on Vivian Maier as my photographer on this panel.
Here is a screenshot of my panel 2 draft:
And here is a screenshot of the look I am trying to achieve.
Alexander the great is a military genius because he used different tactics to battle against their enemies. Alexander has equipped his troops with long 'Sarissa'. He has fought in a 'Phalanx' formation.
This is what a Phalanx formation looks like:
This formation is able to swap troops when the ones at the front get tired; Together with their long Sarissa, they are able to reach the enemies without them being in contact with them. Not only that, the people at the back are also able to attack and combat the enemies.
There were also the Thracian Peltasts. They are the archers, slingers and javelins. They are only lightly armoured.
Light troops are similar to the Thracian Peltasts, they are also archers for alexander.
The Companion Cavalry are the elite troops. They consist of 8 Squadrons who make up Macedonian nobles. They charge in a wedge-shaped formation.
In art we are tasked to choose one photographer from our previous blog (blog post 5). For this blog, I have chosen André Kertész as my artist.
André Kertész works by 'walking around' his subjects and observing the subject from different angles. And then he arranges them in a composition that looks pleasing to his eye. For the series of images I have taken, I have copied his style of work. I walked around the subject and arranged it in a way that looks pleasing in my opinion.
Here are the images that I have taken.
