Week 14


This is an example of Symbolic visual information. The advertisement is for Volkswagen, celebrating their 30th anniversary of their Golf GTI. In this ad, they symbolically represent the horse as horsepower and a tiny jockey to show the driver. This clearly shows that there is a lot of horsepower for such a compact car.
This package design represents Representational visual information. It uses the idea of being a consumer, but packages it in a box as if getting credit for shopping can't usually be seen physically. I like that it even comes iwth a paper cut of a Gucci purse.


This is an example of Abstraction. It is an advertisement for an art festival that uses the concept of having to wear 3D glasses, except in this case, you don't need 3D glasses since each color is its own layer of an image. From my point of view, I believe the blue layer is a picture of a lion and the pink is a child.
