The reading assignment touches on the subject of using visual imagery and learning how to properly analyze what we have seen. Analyzed properly a picture can tell the viewer many things. Visual imagery is becoming a more progressive. The number one reason I think reading this assignment is important is that technology is growing at such a rapid pace. Understanding that technology has made the use of visual imagery to persuade us as a society is crucial.

Reading about visual analysis is more important than ever because we are using visual imagery in the same way we use literature. An image can give us a story and a purpose. Knowing how to properly analyze virtual imagery will help us to determine the story behind the picture. Analyzing virtual imaging gives us an accurate view of the picture. Images can be deceiving and have a direct purpose intended by the creator. Knowing the purpose and goal behind the image will help us to see how it is being used to persuade the viewer. Virtual analysis gives us the ability to see what is beyond the image displayed. We can try to interpret and breakdown the content. An example of how analysis is useful is a detective in a murder investigation between a husband and wife. . The detective would analyze the last known pictures of the couple. He would try to determine if the couple in the picture was happy or had conflict. Knowing if the image was unrealistic or manipulated could help solve the case. Having the knowledge to know how we are being manipulated through image is useful. Images can be used to manipulate us to buy an expensive brand of coffee based on the marketing ad. The viewer might be persuaded to buy the coffee simply because the woman drinking it appears to be happy and
Louv also used vivid imagery in order to describe the scenery that the children now days are missing out on. Louv used a counter argument to show the other side of the debate and dispute their claims. Overall

A chest, a chair, and a small table are the other furnishings.¨ (Miller 3) This proves that the author will use imagery to set the scene and without directly acknowledging the true life the characters lived. Not only setting the mood for the scene but a sense of the point in history that the story falls in. Imagery works well to show action. ¨ He gets up, goes to her, kisses her.
A Good Writer and His Tools Dr. Martin Luther King Junior in his piece, “Letter from Birmingham Jail,” shows that good writers go beyond. King had to convince a groups of white town leaders that what they fundamentally believed and stood for was immoral. Throughout the letter, King evokes his passion through rhetoric, tone, and real-life experiences. This passion was fueled by what King witnessed in his community, as a result of the racist leaders.
It makes the readers want to read more and feel happy and satisfied. Bradbury has many different parts in the story where he uses imagery, but the best example that pops into my head is when it states, “The hot straw smell of lion grass, the cool green smell of the hidden water.” (Bradbury 1). This writing helps the reader get a better understanding of what is happening because they paint a picture in their head. This writing by Ray Bradbury appeals to the reader’s senses by using imagery very well in his short
INSTRUCTIONAL APPROACH KEY CONCEPTS TO BE DEVELOPED Students develop a deeper understanding of how authors use juxtaposition to develop a theme or idea within a text. Students complete this work by examining The Bluest Eye, writing an essay, and finally by selecting an image to illustrate the type of juxtaposition they have identified within the text. Students practice providing feedback to peers by participating in a gallery walk at the end of the Cornerstone.
A visual rhetoric is a recent development of a framework of describing how visual images communicate. Visual literacy is the ability to interpret the meaning from information presented in a form of art. Using these two things, I was able to analysis Thompkins H. Matteson’s painting, “Examination of a Witch.” Matteson’s purpose behind the, “Examination of a Witch” painting, was to represent an event that happen in John Greenleaf Whittier’s book, Supernaturalism. This painting is over a Salem White Trial, the priest are examining a young lady’s back to see if there are any signs of a “devil marking.”
Imagery is something every reader benefits from. Every story you read,you always come up with some sort of picture in your head. You use the details, descriptions, characteristics, etc. provided to visualize what what is being read. He
Imagery is a literary device that uses descriptive wording to put a vivid image of a scenario in your mind. Dickens uses imagery to describe the scenery and the change in Scrooge’s physical appearance throughout the course of the story. “eezing, wrenching, grasping, scraping, clutching, covetous, old sinner! Hard and sharp as flint, from which no steel had ever struck out generous fire; secret, and self- contained, and solitary as an oyster. The cold within him froze his old features, nipped his pointed nose, shrivelled his cheek, stiffened his gait; made his eyes red, his thin lips blue; and spoke out shrewdly in his grating voice.
Chapter 10 of Marita Strunken’s Practices of Looking dealt primarily with how visual culture is circulated throughout the world. Chapter 10 was really interesting because it weighs the positives and negatives of mainstream visual culture due to the globalization of certain technologies. The thesis of this chapter is that the global distribution of images is mainly done through satellite or web technologies. These technologies have increased the magnitude, readability and distance of global circulation of visual culture. One thing that I found interesting was how the chapter began by returning to the very beginning of image reproduction.

The main purpose of imagery is to visualize whatever thoughts or ideas you came up with, so you will be able to discuss these scenarios. Throughout the book, the author focuses more on prisoners and their daily lives inside the concentration camps.
Although imagery is subjective to genre, I felt the imagery included in scenes aided in the interpretation of the plot, emotion and connection of dialogue to action. -Third-person perspective, although not specific to the crime genre aided the mystery and assisted transitions between scenes. It also allowed improved description of character appearance and
It taught how the variation of line weight emphasizes aspects of the figure. When you know how to vary lines, you can capture the feeling of your subject much better. Animators absolutely need to know how to convey the feeling of their subject, as it is their job to bring the subject to life in an animated form as strongly as possible. Drawing the plaster busts is another aspect of the class that is useful in animation. This project required another kind of line drawing with shading.
She began with questioning the reader about the meaning of visual culture, and she assumed in terms of its origin that there is no accepted or agreed definition of its use. However, the context was filled with examples in terms of design history study and criticizing the history of visual communication. Her arguing points were crystal clear, but it would be hard for some researchers to understand, because there were not enough definitions of the main terms of her paper. She argued for its relevance and hoped that she made a case for its potential. Winkler (2009)
