5/6 Movement to the left - Same concept as "movement to the right" but the squares hing skills. It is important to start working with basic ideas on paper and develop your concept from there on out.
On an A4 landscape page, draw four equal squares. Create 4 more pages in this way. So, you'll have 5 pages with four squares on each.
Draw one or two squares or rectangles in each empty square to achieve the visual effects that you see on the first page of module 3 in Graphic Design School textbook. You can work with the interaction of rectangles and squares to make the balance or imbalance more evident.
Entering left
Movement to the right
Movement to the left
Movement downwards
Movement upwards
Balance
Tension
Symmetry/asymmetry
Produce at least two different versions of each effect, recording your results each time. Explain in one or two sentences what you wanted to achieve (as shown in your manual).

1/2. Entering left - I made two shapes in each, with the one on the most left being cut out, so it indicates that both shapes are "entering" the picture.
3/4. Movement to the right - Both shapes are located on the right side of the square, showing us that they are moving away from the center and going to the right side.
5/6. Movement to the left - Same concept as "movement to the right" but the squares are moving to the opposite direction - left.
7/8. Movement downwards - In this case the squares are moving from the center to the bottom.
9/10. Movement upwards - same concept as "movement downwards" but the shapes are moving up from the center.
11. Balance - A single square placed in the absolute center creates balance.
12. Balance - Two shapes placed equally on each side of the square, creates balance. In both cases if the white square is folded in two, both sides will look the same.
13/14. Tension - If two shapes are as far from each other as possible trying to "escape" or they intersect and try to "push" each other, it creates tension between them.
15. Symmetry - Both shapes are the same size and placed diagonally of each other, but without tension. That creates symmetry.
16. Asymmetry - Even though both shapes are placed in the same way as in "symmetry", one is bigger than the other and that creates asymmetry.
17. Balanced entry from left and right - Each rectangle is entering the square from a different side, but in a balanced way.
18. Asymmetrical movement to the left and right - Four shapes moving towards different direction, two to the left and two to the right, but one of them is a rectangle which creates asymmetry.
19. Tension and symmetry - Four squares of the same size creating tension between each other, while being arranged symmetrically.
20. Tension, movement and entry from multiple sides (chaos) - Multiple shapes of different sizes, entering and moving from and to different sides at the same time, after they intersect they will create tension between each other. All of this simultaneous activity creates chaos in the square.
(PS: The last paper was made up by me, I wanted to show different combinations of the aspects and how they affect each other)
