the words to tell a story
Principle:
In great television commercials, words
and pictures work together seamlessly to
deliver the creative concept through sight,
sound, and motion.

Using Visuals Effectively
• An intriguing idea grabs
attention and sticks in
memory.
• A picture in a print ad
captures more than twice
as many readers as a
headline does.
• People remember ads
with pictures more than
those with just type.
Principle:
The visual’s primary function in an advertisement
is to get attention.
14-23
The Art Director
• In charge of the visual look of
the ad how it communicates
mood, product qualities, and
psychological appeals.
• They decide which type of visual
to use—art, photography, film,
animation, etc. for ads.
• May also work on
branding/corporate logo
including office interiors,
merchandising materials,
delivery vehicles.

Design Principles
•
•
•
•
•
•
Direction—creating a visual path for the eye
Dominance—the point of emphasis
Unity—elements fuse into one coherent image
White space—area not covered by art or type
Contrast—makes elements stand out from one another
Balance—formal and informal, symmetrical or
asymmetrical
• Proportion—equally proportions of elements are visually
uninteresting
• Simplify, simplify, simplify—the fewer the elements, the
stronger the impact
14-30
Composition
• Refers to the way elements in a picture are arranged
14-31
Color
Reproduction
• Process colors
(magenta, cyan, yellow,
black) are used in the
four-color printing
process.
• Color separation is a
process by which a
printer reduces or
“separates” to four
negatives for each of the
four colors.
14-32
Planning the TV Commercial
• Creatives plan
– :10, :15, :20, :30, :60
– Number of scenes;
shots in each scene
– Key visual: the image
that sticks in the mind
– Where/how to shoot
• How much product
info?
• Pace: fast or slow?
• Level of controversy
and intrusiveness
13-33
Producing TV Commercials
• Animation
– Used to create characters
like the GEICO gecko
– With computer
animation, images appear
real
• Stop motion
– Used in claymation or to
make other inanimate
objects appear to move
• Music and action
– Should match music to
action; can be used to get
attention, set a mood, or
stick in memory
14-34
Picking a Director
• The most important decision for any agency
doing a TV spot.
• He or she will either make it much better or
much worse.
14-35
Television Production Process
• Preproduction
– Production notes; preproduction meeting; find talent,
location, props, costumes
• The Shoot
– Recording the action; technicians include camera
operator, gaffer, grip; record music, sound effects, voices;
graphics
• Postproduction
– The editor assembles the pieces to match the storyboard;
14-36
Effective Web Design
•
•
•
Web pages, especially first screens, should follow the
same layout rules as posters.
– Graphics should be attention-getting but quickly
downloadable.
– Type should be simple; avoid all caps.
– Use high-contrast colors.
Web pages can combine elements and design styles
from many different media including print, still
photography, film, animation, sound, games.
Web designers use many tools including animation,
complex navigation paths, and sophisticated design
software.

make the imagery more engaging.
– www.climbmeru.com
• Sites should have clear navigation.
– Users should be able to easily move through the site
and find what they want.
• Regular site visitors should be able to customize the
site.
• Minicomputers, PDAs, and cell phones present new
opportunities and challenges for businesses to
display products on the small screen.
