Task 4

Body Language



Body language is a form of mental and physical ability of human non-verbal communication, consisting of body posture, gestures, facial expressions, and eye movements. Humans send and interpret such signals almost entirely subconsciously.






Facial Expressions



A facial expression is one or more motions or positions of the muscles beneath the skin of the face. These movements convey the emotional state of an individual to observers. Facial expressions are a form of non verbal communication. They are a primary means of conveying social information between humans, but they also occur in most other mammals and some other animal species.





My Own Example of Body Language and Facial expressions. 


Depression (Girl) 

 I think this piece is a good line drawing that I drew from reference, that reference being the image below, I like how you can still see the similarities even though all the main details are gone and it's just plain colours left. But I prefer the other image more because you can see the Main body language more and it just works more. you can see that she is depressed because of how her head and facial features tell us, you can obviously see that she has things on her mind and that she is lent on the block of stone without a single smile, that's how you know she's depressed







Depression (Guy)

 I prefer this image to the other one, you can pick up on the body language more, you can see it's about depression/sadness and that's what I like most the fact that you instantly know what it is about. I also gave him a "black eye" as it is commonly known  these days, I gave that to him because then it looks like there is a reason for him to be depressed, gives off the impression that he might be getting bullied or something recently happened that was violent for him. You can see he's depressed from the way his shoulders are slumped, and how he obviously has things on his mind, especially the way that he is sat down, that is one of the MORE obvious give away's that there is something the matter.
