Art is found in places like museums, streets, natural landscapes, and caves. The document also examines how ideas about artists and the purpose of art have changed over time and vary across cultures. It suggests that art expresses culture, ideals of beauty, beliefs, and the human story, and that both art and how people view art evolves.
Common Uses of Textbook Graphics
The document discusses common types of textbook graphics and how to interpret them, including tables for raw data, bar charts for comparing quantitative data over time, line charts for illustrating trends, pie charts for showing distributions, maps for geographic information, photographs for emphasizing ideas, illustrations for explaining parts, and flow charts or diagrams for processes. When viewing these graphics, the reader is advised to consider what data points stand out, how changes may occur, and how elements are distributed, connected, or compared.
Anatomy of a Textbook
This document provides an overview of the typical sections found in textbooks and their purposes. It describes sections like the preface, foreword, author profile, table of contents, chapter previews, introductions, applied practice elements, chapter summaries, review material, endnotes and bibliographies. The document explains what each section contains and why students might find it helpful for understanding the content and perspective of the textbook.
Page Layout
The document discusses various page layout techniques including the Gutenberg diagram, F-layout, Z-layout, rule of thirds, and the golden ratio. The Gutenberg diagram shows how the eye tracks across a page from top left to bottom right, paying less attention to areas in between. The F-layout and Z-layout are modern variations that chart eye movement on web pages and pages with large central images, respectively. The rule of thirds suggests placing subjects along an imaginary three-by-three grid for a visually pleasing composition. The golden ratio involves a specific mathematical proportion used in layout grids.
Rhetoric & Design
According to Aristotle, there are three artistic proofs of rhetoric: ethos, logos, and pathos. Ethos is an appeal to credibility or character. Logos is an appeal to logic or reason. Pathos is an appeal to emotion. The document then provides definitions and examples of additional rhetorical devices such as allusion, amplification, analogy, hyperbole, metaphor, oxymoron, personification, simile, and understatement. These devices can be used to emphasize ideas, draw connections, explain concepts, and grab attention.
Sketches
The document outlines the graphic design process from initial sketches to final layout. It begins with thumbnail sketches created by hand to explore initial concepts without detail. These are followed by rough renderings of top concepts to further develop forms and compositions. Comprehensive digital layouts are then created to present the final design to clients for approval, featuring finished visual elements in their proper layout. The document stresses starting with quick, hand-drawn thumbnails to allow for unlimited creative exploration before committing to any single concept or style.
Visual Elements
The document discusses various visual elements of design including line, shape, space, texture, value, and color. It defines different types of lines such as static, dynamic, and leading lines. It explains the differences between shapes and forms, as well as positive and negative space. The document also covers texture, value, color theory including complementary, analogous, warm, and cool colors.
Design Principles
This document discusses six design principles for combining visual elements: pattern/repetition, contrast, proportion, alignment, balance, and movement. It defines each principle and provides an example image to illustrate it. The principles are pattern/repetition of recurring elements, contrast through differences in values, size, color or shape, proportion relating to relative sizes of elements, alignment along lines, balance with symmetrical or asymmetrical arrangements, and movement through implied or literal representations. Unity occurs when all elements support the overall theme rather than distracting the viewer.
Ethical Considerations for Visual Media Makers.pptx
This document discusses several ethical considerations for visual media makers regarding invasion of privacy, responsibility to subjects, use of graphic or staged photos/videos, and manipulation of images. It provides guidance from codes of ethics on getting consent from subjects, avoiding exploitation, providing context, not sensationalizing or stereotyping, and not digitally altering photos in a misleading way. Examples are given of controversies over graphic photos published without consent, a staged "milkman" photo from WWII, and darkened skin tone in OJ Simpson's mugshot on a magazine cover.
Deceptive Advertising
The document discusses various examples of deceptive, misleading, and harmful advertising techniques throughout history. It provides cases where companies used mock-ups and simulations to exaggerate product qualities, including using Plexiglas coated in sand to simulate a shaving product and marbles to keep soup ingredients suspended. It also discusses lawsuits around health claims of food products and regulations on tobacco advertising. Finally, it touches on disguised ads and native advertising that masquerade content to seem like news or information rather than paid advertisements.
Media changes
This document discusses how new technologies have increased the power of information over time. It begins with the first newspapers in the 1600s and discusses how the invention of photography in the 1800s allowed newspapers to provide undisputed proof of events. The development of radio in the 1920s allowed people to remotely listen to live events. Television and film in the mid-1900s added a visual dimension to reporting. The moon landing in 1969 was a seminal event watched live on TV worldwide. More recently, smartphones and social media have enabled real-time sharing of news, photos and videos, changing politics and amplifying the spread of misinformation. Social media also expects photographic proof from its users.
15 tips for taking smartphone photos for social media
The document provides 15 tips for taking better smartphone photos for social media. Some key tips include following the rule of thirds when composing photos, using leading lines and finding interesting perspectives by shooting from above or below eye level. Photographers should also simplify backgrounds, use natural lighting when possible, and experiment with different techniques like filling the frame or capturing candid moments. Overall, the tips encourage taking advantage of composition techniques and lighting conditions to create more engaging photos for sharing on social media.
Graphic Design for Social Media
This document provides tips for designing graphics for social media. It recommends keeping designs simple with minimal text and using negative space. Elements should be balanced using contrasting colors, fonts, and graphics. The rule of thirds suggests placing the subject along the horizontal and vertical grid lines or at their intersections. Visual hierarchy uses size and color to show importance. Serif fonts contain extra marks and sans serif fonts are best for social media. Color choices should harmonize and high contrast between text and background aids readability. Complimentary colors make each other brighter while analogous colors create harmony. Warm colors excite and cool colors calm.

Composition for Video
The document discusses different types of camera shots defined by how much of the subject or scene is included in the frame. Shots range from close-ups of just the face to long shots or extreme long shots that show the full body or more of the surrounding environment. It also covers different camera angles like eye-level, high-angle, and low-angle shots. Compositions can combine shots, like an establishing long shot followed by a close-up, or use techniques like over-the-shoulder shots or rule of thirds placement of the subject.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Media Relations
- 2. What are Media Relations? The mutually beneficial relationship between journalists and public relations professionals. (Public relations extends that relationship beyond media professionals to the general public.) Benefits journalists because working with public relations professionals cuts down on the time needed to look for sources and other information to validate an article’s content. Benefits public relations practitioners because it secures free publicity and promotion for a client. By using media as a promotional tool, they are able to reach a large audience without high costs. Writing for Strategic Communication Industries by Jasmine Roberts
- 3. The Pitch A brief email or tweet to a journalist or influencer that proposes a story idea or informs them of an event or product.
- 4. Before Pitching to the Media Develop a rapport with journalists who work with your target audience. Have a solid understanding of your key audience so you can more accurately select which media outlet will help reach the target audience. Be sure to research which specific writer within the organization can help you target your audience. Writing for Strategic Communication Industries by Jasmine Roberts
- 5. Elements of a Pitch The subject line of your email must contain your news hook – the one thing that makes your story stand out and demands attention. (Fewer than eight words.) The first sentence of your email pitch, simply say, “Please find attached and below a story about MY NEWS ANGLE.” Show you care about the journalist’s previous work by mentioning a related article they wrote. End by inviting the journalist to contact you if they need any more information. Always make sure that you copy and paste your press release into the body of the email immediately after the text of your pitch. https://class-pr.com/blog/write-media-pitch/
