The Checkerboard Method

Summary by Krater

This video teaches five perspective drawing methods for dividing planes into equal or odd divisions in space, concluding with advanced techniques like diagonal extensions and measuring lines.

From the video

Answers: How do you divide planes and measure proportions in perspective drawing?

• dividing planes in perspective
• finding the center in perspective
• diagonal transfer method
• diagonal extension technique
• measuring line and special vanishing point

What it concludes

• X finds the center provides even divisions in perspective.
• Diagonal transfers allow copying equal divisions across planes.
• Diagonal extensions multiply perspective divisions toward and away from the viewer.
• Measuring line and special vanishing points transfer any odd or uneven divisions into depth.
