Shot, Montage, Rhythm, Sequence
Shot
I defined shot as a single element of a composition. A shot is the simplest form present and is used as a building block for the rest of the composition. In my case I viewed a shot to be one single shape that stood alone. Shown below are two different shots seen in my sequence.
Montage
I defined montage as a collision of shots. In my sequence I had a few variations of montage. When the sub-sequences collide montages are seen, but also within each sub-sequence there are montages of the shots. Shown in the line drawing below are four different examples of montage in my sequence.
Rhythm
I defined rhythm as an organized pattern of movement. I created rhythm in two different ways. From the top view you can see that in each individual sequence there are moments of high intensity and moments of low intensity. This creates a rhythm as it implies the type of movement through these spaces; in a low intensity space you may be able to move more quickly, but in a high intensity space you may need to take more time moving through to absorb it all. Also, from the side view you can see that the open spaces create a pattern of wave-like movement which is a second example of rhythm in my sequence.
Sequence
When all of these components come together, you get the final sequence. I saw sequence as an order of various elements. In my design I have three sub-sequences that when combined form one greater sequence. Below are two different line drawings that depict my sequence.
Additional Images
I included these images to give a better sense of the montage between the sub-sequences.
