Assignment 6 Reflections

I hope we covered the subject matter properly, we wanted to actually focus on the positive aspects of the ad itself. Furthermore, we should always take into consideration WHO the ad is for. Certain colours and metaphors might not work and I think it is very hard to find an ad that is truly global...there always seems to be a few more people that tend to see different things...

And I think most of the class seemed agreeable to our analysis too, and someone also spotted a very good point, the position of the car is on the top, almost asking the viewer to look up at it, and as we know, looking up seems to bring ideas of looking at something grand and powerful.

I will also upload the presentation itself shortly. Most of the time I am really not for wordy powerpoint presentations, I would rather the audience focus on what I say. When theres too much text sometimes I feel it gets distracting which is why I took the minimal approach.

First slide was there to break ice.

Overall, I'd rate ours 90/100

I would also like to point out Mikes presentation, very classic analysis of a photo, interesting ideas too of that inner tension, 91/100

Celeste/Jas presentation also was interesting, struck alot of nationalist sentiment here, and I like the way how many of us also interpreted the ad in a different sort of way. Good choice! 95/100
