Perspective Drawing - 04: Three Point Perspective 

This is a video that gave me that "OH THAT'S HOW IT WORKS" moment, after the class I'm taking basically muddled through it. Thank you!

also your voice kinda reminds me of the math guy on khan academy .. which subconsciously makes me pay more attention to what you’re saying lol

This entire series is so underrated. Good job man, I find this series very helpful 👍

Ah, finally.... I have watched so many videos on 3 point perspective and couldn't find anyone that actually explained it. This was very helpful 💞

Today, I wouldn't describe shifting the center of your composition as something you should do -- technically what's happening here at 2:34 is that the perspective is CROPPED. If you can imagine the canvas of this drawing extending further to the right, the perspective would look normal in the new detail drawn in those areas, and the ORIGINAL CROP of the drawing would be far off to the left side. You CAN do this, but again, it's important to understand that what you're really doing is cropping your perspective if the vertical isn't centered with your canvas.

I knew about 3 point perspective but I thought that the 3rd point was on the horizon line. So I struggled when I was doing it, so I decided to look up videos and found this one. Thank you for clearing that misconception for me.

Finally someone who addressed the FOV in perspective calculations. I did some calculations today, my curiosity was the distortion degree of a 90 degree object in perspective respective of its vertical off setting from a horizon line. According to my observation the 90 degree expansion depends and is related to vertical degree of the object from a horizon. So for example a cube's top 90 deg surface angle will appear as 180-15=165 degree angle if cube is placed 15 degrees lower than a horizon line.

after many videos I finally understood the 3 point perspective. Though a simple concept it's really confusing when drawing

Finally a good video explaining when to use which perspective

hey man, great video! I was hoping to find a video exactly like this, the movement of the 3rd vanishing point, towards the left or right. great explanation. thank you :)))) !

Super insightful! Thank you!

great video man!

Thank you so much for putting the tips at the bottom of each slide

Hello I would like to ask about drawing curves in perspective such as curved roads or curved walls. How would you go about them?

great explanation, thanks man

Amazing. Thank you

What a good explanation, I finally understand this.

This was really really helpful thanks!

PERFECT video thanks

Excellent sir

Thanks!

This video is amazing, why did he stop posting? Miss you man!❤

Thanks

Thank you

Best explanation ever! However I need help to understand that compass analogy because I didn't really get it.

Would a 4 (or even more) point perspective be possible? And if not, why? Somehow my brain cant process this question..

Hey! Question Is it possible to have over 2 vanishing points on 1 horizon line? Also, is it possible to have over 1 horizon line in a drawing?

Hey @Matt Lawkowski, I have a question, for drawing a box on one of the side planes of a already drawn box three point perspective does have go back to third vanishing or just the 2 vanishing points on the horizon line ? This is some I have difficulty with

I have a question at 2:35 : is it that there are only 2 vanishing Points or are there 3 vanishing Points with 1 Just not being used. I am a little confused at a few Things about drawing in perspective

subbed

For those that want some insane examples check out Kim Jung Gi.

sir how do we know where to plot the points

Any tips for 5 point perspective?

can you explain more deeply about the curve

This didn't help much, too much oversimplication. A common mistake most teachers make
