an examination of the visual composition of the videos of 067jox
reference
i first thing u see are the two central textboxes
ii the vertical rectangles on the sides focus ur attention on the textboxes
iii next u see this rectangle jutting out from the vertical lines of the rest of the image
iv 067jox's eyes lead u
v to the bottom textbox and u read that shit
vi then u return to the top textbox and see agent mambos first line which redirects the eye to two places
067jox makes expert use of the rather bland and overly modernistic layout of ps to craft a visual narrative and maintain audience interest here. of particular interest is the location of the webcam which is unlike any other rectangles on screen. this horizontal rectangle contrasts with the columnar layout of ps and mirrors the textboxes. this makes it a focal point of the image.
here u see the battle. no numbers because those took a really fucking long time to do for the last pic.
the important compositional element of this battle is the eyeline. also of note are the buttons which the viewer understands link to the pokemon onscreen. this use of eyelines and implied links as well as rectangles and frames echoes the composition of velazquezs masterpiece las meninas. in both the creator uses simple compositional techniques to convey complex relationships.
u can see elements of self portraiture and the commentary on the creation of art in both. the eyes of 067jox lead both to the buttons on the screen for the viewer and to the screen on which he is creating his art for himself.
tldr 067jox is a fucking genius.
