QUAD PERSPECTIVE 1 + 2 Annotation. This view looks like the entre of the palace, and the ceiling can be seen from this sence. The addation of numbers of people, and different position of these people can provide this view with the felling of distance and space.

Annotation. Because the second view is on steps, so this view is taken from a higher level, and the lower level can produce the feeling of slum better, also a opened end can be seen from the view, so it is easier to import background.

PERSPECTIVE SCENE 1 + 2

Annotation. From the story, there are many water tanks around the city, and dancers are dancing in the water tanks, so the background is under the water, and dancers can be observed from this view. There are some lights around the ceiling, and because the view is underwater, so there are some water wave at the ground and columns of this place.

Annotation. Because this place is the slum of the city, so some bags, ropes and old tubes can be seen from this sence. Also, peoples here are beggars, the surface of this street is older and dirtier than view 1, and that makes a clear comparison with view 1, which suits the story very well.
