This first image is of an infographic that is very straighforward showing the green which is profit and red which is cost, it is eye-appealing for potential buyers or investors that want to invest into the product because if it's eye-appealign then they have your attenton to hear what you have to say. I personally like this infographic more because of the fact of the rocket ship going up which shows the potential of the product or service going up. It's more appealing because of the rocket ship. I always liked this image, because it's an iconic image from an iconic show Friends. The picture represents 1. when you see the potential of profits just skyrocketing from the infographic (happy and shocked mood) 2. when you see that the something you thought that wasn't serious is actually proven to be really bad or really good. It’s important to note that people do better while looking at graphs in this case infographics. Infographics are visual images like a c...

This is the image that literally changed the world. Changed the way we live and changed everything around us. This is how people's expressions changed once they saw the image of COVID-19 through all the platforms anyone would watch. the change in expression is exavtly how most of the people who didnt think COVID-19 was real once they saw the image. I think the idea of this unit part 1 which is visualizing science is relatable to the class which is visual communication. In essence we create communication, and we create science through our words that essentially make a mental image as we are communicating. I believe I can speak for a lot of people when I say that visualizing the issue at hand will make it worst than ever and make it feel more real along with the way media displays it. I say that because what I found interesting in this week’s work was the impact of the image of COVID-19. The image that was shown on every single tv screen and all over the internet for days...

Up to this point, the class is going pretty well. I like all of the topic we are covering and it’s pretty self-explanatory, with the new online courses, it does feel a lot harder when it’s all spread out in my opinion. I took a bunch of classes in the summer and I liked it and I guess it was because it was pretty much everyday so the timing went by so fast but with the online classes in the fall it feels so spread out that I end up doing things late or something comes up left and right, life isn’t easy in the pandemic to say the least in my opinion. Ever topic we’ve covered in this class is important and for sure my favorite assignments we’ve done is the Birmingham campaign and the assignment we had with the museum where we had to look at the videos and then speak and relate it. Those assignments are interesting and are appealing for me. I do feel like this class would’ve been great and better in person but that’s just how it is now unfortunately in these rough times. I had a ...

with these images you can see the comparison of 1968 vs 2020 2020 is very much like a 1968 just a lot more eventful. What I felt was the best thing to speak about this time around was 1968 vs 2020. Just as last week was, the same assignment that posted last week related to the topics, is the same for this week. For this week we had an assignment to look at a video that spoke about images from 1968. 1968 looks a lot like 2020, just 2020 is worst in opinion. 2020 is honestly one of the most anticipated years and the most disappointing because of that. It goes to show because especially on social media, everyone was sitting there saying how their 2019 was bad and that 2020 was their comeback year and on top of that people were saying how important it is because 2020 starts off a new decade so of course all of the people that started 2010 are now old enough to enjoy 2020. As a result of everything that happened, we aren’t able to do so. Not a lot of things but there are a lot of th...

the first image is my recreation using Molly Bang's methods and the youtube link leads to the end of Lion King so you can see the difference and see if it brings out an emotional response. The ideal of the children’s project and the recreation that we had to do with it really allowed a new representation and perspective of Molly Bang’s work and how important it is to understand the concept of images and shapes and the simplicity of things. When I say simplicity, I mean how just simple shapes or objects and the way they are put in a page can bring out a certain perspective of it. For example, just like the top half of an image will show triumph and victoriousness and that’s essentially what I did when I re-created the story of Lion King and in the end when Simba is standing on the top of Pride Rock after he beats Scar. All I used was round shapes and drew a cliff to represent the height of the round shape is all. In that case it allowed me to re-create that scene...
