Activity 1. Types of Visual Information
Type and image sample
Facial Expression: We tend to analyze
emotions and actions of people by
reading facial and eye expressions.
Body Language: Postures and gestures
can mean more than words. We predict
people’s motives and emotions by
reading body language.
Color: Most of us give meaning to colors
based on preferences, culture,
experiences and human psychology. We
might think that color blue is a masculine
color and symbol of peace. Most
companies prefer blue because it
represents trust but it also means
loneliness and mourning
for other cultures. (Read more about
Color Psychology)
Environment: We observe the
environment we see and give
interpretations of the situation of the
people in the environment.
Symbols: Hand gestures, icon, brand
logos, landmarks, emoji are some of the
symbols that we interpret every day.
Interpretation
The two people in the picture are having a
conversation about something. They have eye
contact that shows they are attentive to the
discussion. Their facial expressions show that
they are serious.
The man in the image is looking at his watch. It
may mean that the man is in a hurry and that he
should do something or go someplace. If you
are constantly checking your watch, you are
telling the room that you have better places to
be and that this conversation is not worth your
time.
The image emphasized the color yellow. Yellow
is one of the happiest colors in the spectrum. It
has an illuminating essence, it is fun, and it has
some level of innocence that resonates strongly
with children. Yellow is a cheerful color that
conveys youthful, fresh energy. It is the color of
optimism and is associated with hope and
creativity. Within the meaning of the colors,
yellow, the third rainbow color, is the color of
friendliness, fun, creativity, and enlightenment.
Cemeteries are rather strange places—
somewhere that represents an abundance of
sorrow for some and a place of peace and
happiness for others. A black cat crossing your
path is actually considered good luck in many
parts of the world, but others also believe that it
is bad luck. Cats may feel at home in cemeteries
because of their long association with
transformation and the afterlife. In Finnish
mythology, cats escort the souls of the dead to
the underworld.
The Raven is symbolic of battle, protection, and
fighting for what you believe in. The raven's
sign symbolizes wisdom, affection, healing
powers, longevity, death, and fertility. It is
believed that a raven is a symbol of good luck.
Whenever you see a raven, it is believed that
you should expect good things to begin to
happen in your life.
