Text and Image

Today's VCT class was about text and image. We did a little game which was to combine some texts and post cards together, and then described to other groups why we made them connect with each other.

Through this game, we realized that we all read the texts first before finding the images to match with.
  
I found it interesting because i never thought about text was so important for graphic design. For graphic design, the first thing i would come up with was "color", i never thought about text was the soul to transmit the massages to our audience. Text is the medium that graphic designers communicate in.

In next weeks of this class, we are asked to bring an example of a text and image combination that we find interesting, so I did some research on the Internet, and i found these designs which inspired me a lot below:



This one is interesting because when I looked at it at first, i couldn't tell that there were 4 Chinese words combined with together to become this image. The illustration in the 2 red Chinese words is what the meaning blue ones about! 












This one would be my favourite! The image we see is totally combined with texts!
