English (Visual Text)... (STILL IN PROGRESS!)

 Static images:

What is a static image? A static image is a visual image that doesn't move, most static image communicate by combining visual elements with words, for instance like that image on the left, colouring, and huge lettering.

The reason they used huge lettering and bright and light red and white was because the huge lettering gets or catches the readers attention to read the sign. Bright and light red colouring was used to catch the peoples eyes, and the white is just another colour that goes nicely with the sign and also to also share positive actions, also having black as the background makes it easier for people to see what the picture, sign, or poster is trying to say, lastly the reason they used that font was because they wanted a font that was big and thick enough for people to understand.

What the photo or poster is conferencing is that people need to stop texting, calling, while driving, and have those words 'STOP IT!' makes it easier for people to understand the context of the message.

                                                            

This static image shows that the creator of the sonic poster used colours like blue and dark backgrounds because he wanted to attract us the viewers to the posters. Why? Because he wants people to come watch his movie. The creator of the poster also used big thick fonts such as that specific one that says 'sonic'. Having a font like that mixed with the blue makes the poster look nice and cool making peoples minds think to themselves that the movie might actually be good to watch, just by reading the title. The blue combined with the words 'sonic' also symbolises electricity meaning we have an idea of what maybe the movie is about. We won't know unless we watch it.

This static image is a static image of the front page of a movie. This picture of the front page of the movie gives us a big idea of what the movies about, and also who stars in the film. Having the title 'A monster calls' and also having a monetarist giant in the shot shows that its about a boy and a giant tree like creature. The front pages of the movie is where we start thinking in our heads what type of movie or genre it is. Ranging from Action, to adventure, Drama or horror, if it were a horror movie, the background would have dark colours such as black, grey or even white, but instead we have light colours like white clouds, blue-ish skies with a sun setting and also bit of green meaning emotional. From what I think, the movie maybe about happiness, and creativity. The cover also shows depth, which is the two dimensional effect given.

In this static image we have dark colours such as dark blue, black, and what looks to be a light-ish, dark-ish purple, with a dominant zombie like hand raised in the air coming out of the ground. If we look closely it is simply just a log with a zombie arm and hand like figure, the creator did this to trick us into thinking it is a zombie poster when really it is just a piece drift wood or log. Not only does this look like a poster but it also looks some what like a painting, the painter did this by visualising what was in his head and transferring it onto a paper. With some photographs been taken and editing been done, they have been able to transfer a piece of art onto the web, allowing more people like us to view the image of their air.
