Candy


I looked up digital candy and found a picture from Adidas. As you can see from the picture it is the color of a variety of fruity candy. That made me think that even companies that don’t sale food or snacks try to hook people on their products by drawing them in with that sweet addicting substance that most Americans eat daily. Advertisement is about getting people to take an interest in your product and with this picture and just the word candy it does that job successfully. There are people who don’t like candy very much but even then for those people they have a variety of color that could catch their eyes and would get them possibly interested in getting one of the watches.

TV






When I see this picture I think about how we use to only watch TV and how that has been changing in the recent years. Now at home is not the only place you can watch TV you can now do that in your car on your phone or on your laptop. Here is a piece of an article that I just read about TV and mobile devices.

“The Advanced Television Standards Committee (ATSC) announced on Friday that they've agreed on a standard that will let local TV stations broadcast directly to mobile devices on their existing frequencies. The devices that can be equipped to pick up the ATSC Mobile DTV signals include mobile phones, laptops, handheld TVs, and even in-vehicle digital TVs.”

This article is on http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/17/the-future-of-tv-on-your-iphone-is-atsc-mobile-dtv/. This will make it so we are less constricted to the house just to watch something on TV which will hopefully encourage more people to leave the house and get around. This advancement will also contribute to more possible information to events that are happening in the local area.

Weird Creature

This picture is Photoshop at random but I'm a random person. Let me start by saying that the background gives the picture a kind of majestic type of style to the picture. The main theme of the picture is the bird, fish, snake type creature in the center of the picture. When I see the creature with the round object in its mouth I think of religious themes. I see some figures of religion and cultures with some type of object its holding meaning a significant meaning. This picture could be implying the same thing.

Smoke

This picture caught my eye due to its kind of smokey spiritual look. This picture has a good color scheme with its dark yet soft colors. When I look at this I think it could be interpeted any many ways. I see smoke, webs, or some "spirit". I'm sure others could interpet this differently as well. Another thing thats nice about this picture is the space in the top right that gives your eyes a rest from the comfusion. Added to this design is the inside of this figure that adds to the coolness of this design.

N-Gage

When I first saw this picture I knew I had to have this in my journal because it was pretty clever. This is an ad for N-GAGE and it says take on anyone anywhere. It is obviously implying that you can fight anyone no matter where you are. It does that by showing a guy being pulled by an invisible person. That is a cool effect that they likely did in photoshop and another thing that is good about this picture is the expression of the guy being pulled which ads to the realism to the picture.
