Video reflections

Today, we extended our knowledge on the topic of perception by watching multiple videos. In these videos we learned and saw how our brain can be tricked with illusions, with the first one having us think that the objects where three dimensional when they actually weren't. As you rotate the object you could then clearly see it was just a two dimensional piece of paper. Depending on the angle and perspective, the way we see things around can change, this is exactly what happened in the first videos as in a car commercial, various objects were shown and when the camera angle and people themselves changed, you could see how everything we saw, wasn't really the 'reality' of the situation. Some of the videos instead of using the change in angle, used the way our eyes and brain function together to focus on dots, placed in some images in order to manipulate what we were seeing. This included change in color and even making them disappear.
