 In this lecture we talked about communication and mass media. We also talked about this in the art school context like communication design, visual communication and graphic design. Mass Media is a mean of public communication which reaches a large audience. The means of communication that reaches large numbers of people in a short time, such as television, newspapers, magazines etc.
















We also talked about the graphic illustrations in the opening cut scenes by Saul Bass and that how animation can also be applied in some illustrations.

CoP Lecture Pictures at Work


This lecture was more about images then words hence why I didn't take many notes because the slide show was mainly pictures. However, the lecture was about illustration and what it is, illustration is made up of context, content and an image all together for example the Frosties cereal box is illustration.
