Visual rhetoric in advertising: How consumers cope with a pleasant experience / How consumers cope with a pleasant experience

Andrews, Steven J., 1971- 06 1900 (has links)
x, 161 p. : col. ill. / Rhetorical communication ("figures") in advertising are "artful deviations", analogous to bold or italicized text, which use style as their persuasive tool over message content. The present research built on theories of visual persuasion that conceive of visuals as sophisticated and nuanced systems of meaning transfer, unlike most traditional persuasion theories based on verbal processing that treat visuals as simple, non-discursive stimuli that merely evoke basic mood responses. Previous research suggests that in the context of visual persuasion the traditional components of information processing: attention, perception, elaboration, and memory retrieval are not applicable and visual information transfer depends almost entirely on the processing experience. While it was known that rhetoric is usually more well-liked and more memorable than plain language, this dissertation expanded the theoretical understanding of the mechanisms of how visual rhetoric in advertising engages the consumer and elicits more favorable judgments compared to both figurative and non-figurative verbal stimuli. Processing fluency research suggests that the brain automatically responds with positive emotion toward easy, pleasant, or novel processing experiences regardless of stimulus content. These types of processing experiences are early signals to the brain of successful completion of a mental task. In a series of four experiments, visual rhetorical ad stimuli elicited overall higher ratings than verbal rhetorical or verbal literal ad stimuli of equivalent message content on scales measuring mental involvement/engagement with the ad, attitude toward the ad, and perceptions of the ad's honesty/trustworthiness regardless of the processing experience as operationalized by stimulus exposure. At longer exposure durations judgments of visual rhetorical ads differed due to interactions between processing experience and sensitivity to the rhetorical figure's persuasive intent, whereas at 1-second exposure subjects exhibited universally high ratings based mostly on processing ease with relatively sparse deliberation about the stimulus content. Subjects exhibited high certainty about their attitudes toward the visuals at all exposures, but the positive experience of "processing ease" at 1-second exposure produced the most accessible favorable judgments as evidenced through reaction time measures. Future research should examine in more depth the potential for visual persuasion with rhetoric to evade resistance particularly when processing resources are constrained. / Committee in charge: David M.

Design gráfico sinestésico: a relação da visão com os demais sentidos na comunicação / Synesthesic graphic design: the relation of the vision with the others human beings feelings in the communication.

Yuji Kawasaki 29 May 2009 (has links)
A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo principal, o estudo de possibilidades sinestésicas no design gráfico. Analisar diferentes técnicas gráficas e estímulos visuais que remetam ou estimulem os diferentes sentidos humanos. Compreender melhor as relações entre os signos visuais com os signos dos demais sentidos: sonoros, táteis, olfativos e gustativos, observando possíveis relações de correspondência entre os mesmos e refletindo sobre sua contribuição no processo de comunicação. Dentro de cada relação, são apresentadas as relações sinestésicas encontradas por pesquisadores diversos, resultantes de estudos relacionados principalmente a psicodinâmica das cores, psicologia da forma e gestalt, agrupados por suas relações com cores, formas, texturas e relações espaciais. As relações sinestésicas encontradas servem como parâmetros principais para a análise de diferentes peças gráficas de produção recente, como: cartazes, embalagens e capas de livro, entre outros. Tendo em vista o grande crescimento de informações a que somos submetidos, das mídias disponíveis, do mercado e da população em geral, nota-se a necessidade de projetos cada vez mais instigantes, eficientes e preocupados com as necessidades de cada mercado. Esta pesquisa visa contribuir na determinação de recursos que permitam suprir tais necessidades, potencializando os resultados do design gráfico na função de identificar, informar, instruir, apresentar e promover, através de uma idéia gráfica. / This research has the aim to study synesthesia in graphic design, analyzing different graphical techniques and visual stimulations that forward or stimulate the different human beings feelings. To better understanding the relation among the visual signs and the others human being feelings, as smell, flavor, touch, sound and also observing the possible relation correspondence among them reflecting on its contribution on the communication process. Inside of each relation are presented synesthesia relation found by many researchers due to studies mainly related to psychodynamics of the colors, form psychology and gestalt, grouped by its relation by color, form, space form and texture. The found synesthesia relations serve as the main parameters to analyze different graphic parts of a recent production such as book covers, posters, packing among others. Considering the great growth of the information that we are submitted, the available medias, the market and the population in general, it is observed the necessity of projects each time more interesting, efficient and worried about the necessities of each market. This research aims to contribute to the determination of the resources which will permit to supply these necessities empowering the graphic design on the function to identify, to inform, to instruct, to present and to promote through a graphic idea.

O panorama do design gráfico contemporâneo: a construção, a desconstrução e a nova ordem / The panorama of contemporary graphic design: construction, desconstruction and the new order

Maria Helena Werneck Bomeny 03 April 2009 (has links)
Tomando o design gráfico como eixo de observação, foram analisados os caminhos traçados na profissionalização dessa atividade e os fatores que levaram a mensagem a alcançar a forma gráfica atual. Nessa análise, foram consideradas as mudanças decorrentes não só da introdução da tecnologia digital, mas também das transformações de tendências e padrões culturais que determinaram o período estudado. Como ponto de partida foram utilizados os princípios modernistas, sistematizados pela Bauhaus e seqüenciados pelas diretrizes da Escola Suíça, que determinaram o papel do design gráfico como um transmissor neutro e cuja proposta era a claridade, a objetividade e a funcionalidade, por meio de formas universais e livres de valores regionais. O objetivo central foi analisar a perda da supremacia desses valores, acompanhada pela introdução da tecnologia digital, com novos equipamentos oferecendo novas ferramentas, possibilitando novos enfoques para a idealização dos projetos. / Taking graphic design as an observation axis, the course followed in the professionalization of this activity and the factors that led the message to take its current graphical form were analyzed. In this investigation, not only the changes brought about by the introduction of digital technology were considered, but also the transformation of cultural trends and patterns which determined the period studied. Modernist principles were used as a starting point, as systemized by Bauhaus and arranged by the guidelines established by the Swiss School, which determined the role of the graphic design as a neutral transmitter and whose proposal was clarity, objectivity and functionality, through universal forms and freed of regional values. The main objective was to analyze the loss of supremacy of these values, accompanied by the introduction of the digital technology, with new equipments offering new tools, which enabled new approaches in the conceptualization of projects.

Image and sound : the visual strategies of ECM records

Holm, Erik 11 1900 (has links)
Commercial recordings - CDs, LPs - are familiar objects. However, discussion about them has often attempted to conceal the fact that, as communicating objects, recordings pose special problems due to the fact that they unite text, image, and sound in a material commodity. This thesis examines the role of the visual in the production, circulation and use of recordings. The album cover is the primary category of study, with an emphasis on its functioning in relation to the recording as a sonic and material commodity. The label ECM, a German company which has been producing recordings since 1969, provides the main focus in this analysis. The basis of this investigation lies in the questioning of the assumptions and categories that have historically guided the activity of cover design and the discourse about it. Traditionally, recordings have been understandably seen primarily as sound-carriers; their visual aspects, even when celebrated, are most often relegated to a peripheral status, despite the fact that in certain contexts the importance of the visual can overwhelm that of sound. The usual hierarchical opposition between these elements is here questioned through an examination of both the marketing of recordings and their circulation and use. ECM provides a pertinent case through which such questions can be elaborated. Its visual marketing strategies can be characterised in terms of a desire for difference. ECM's attempt to set itself apart has resulted in a "look" which rejects many conventions. It has also resulted in a complex, conceptual group of visual strategies. In its particular use of landscape photography, blank space, and gestural markings, ECM constructs ideas of space which relate to the potential for performativity and creativity. Through the combination of these strategies, the label deemphasises creative personality of the musical performer and emphasises the space occupied by the looker/listener. In doing this, it also questions the traditional boundaries between music and the visual. ECM's covers cause these categories to become indistinct and allow new conceptions of the recording as a material commodity to emerge. One effect of this is a construction of the apprehender's subjectivity that fails to fit within the marketplace's traditional categories. The thesis considers how the visual has been implicated in more concrete processes such as the negotiation of taste and practices of consumption and use. The niche that ECM attempts to carve out for itself is considered in relation to the tension in the marketplace between the desire for distinction and the recording as a massproduced commodity. / Arts, Faculty of / Art History, Visual Art and Theory, Department of / Graduate

Para tanto, realizei: o levantamento dos infográficos impressos, publicados em jornais e revistas, premiados nas edições 18, 19 e 20 dos 'Premios Internacionales Malofiej de Infografía¿, e dos infográficos impressos, publicados nos livros didáticos adotados através do 'Programa Nacional do Livro Didático¿ - 2011, nas disciplinas de Geografia, História e Ciências do ensino fundamental da EMEF CAIC 'Prof. Zeferino Vaz¿, localizada no município de Campinas/SP; entrevistas com os docentes responsáveis por essas disciplinas na unidade escolar e com membro do júri dos 'Premios Internacionales Malofiej de Infografía¿. Ademais, apresento, nesta dissertação, duas iniciativas de projeto, realizadas sob minha orientação, com alunos da EMEF CAIC 'Prof. Zeferino Vaz¿, sendo que uma delas, em especial, objetivou discutir a importância da informação, as formas de organizá-la e transmiti-la no contexto escolar e na sociedade, através do estímulo à pesquisa e à elaboração de infográficos. As reflexões geradas a partir das iniciativas de projetos realizados com os alunos, das análises dos infográficos e das entrevistas forneceram apontamentos importantes sobre o que pode ser aproveitado dos infográficos premiados para o aprimoramento dos que são destinados aos livros didáticos, em especial no uso da cor, e demonstraram como é importante proporcionar situações de ensino-aprendizagem, nas quais o aluno tenha a oportunidade de se apropriar dos códigos visuais e, consequentemente, ampliar sua cultura visual / Abstract: This research aims to understand how the relationship between color and other elements of the infographics interfere with the process of information transmission, and how infographics published in newspapers and magazines can contribute to improve the ones used in Schoolbooks. To achieve these goals, a survey of infographics printed in newspapers and magazines, which have won the 'Malofiej International Infographics Awards' in the 18th, 19th and 20th editions, and of infographics printed in Schoolbooks used in the EMEF CAIC ' Prof. Zeferino Vaz (Cam-pinas/SP/Brazil) elementary School for Geography, History and Science (these books were se-lected by a Federal Government Program "Programa Nacional do Livro Didático ¿ 2011¿) was made. Interviews with teachers responsible for the above-mentioned subjects and with the jury members of the 'Malofiej International Infographics Awards' were also performed. Furthermore, two projects under, my supervision, with the students of the above mentioned elementary school were also performed. The main goal of one of these projects was to discuss the importance of information and the ways to organize it and communicate it either in the school or in the society, encouraging the research and the development of infographics. The reflections generated after the projects undertaken with the elementary school students, analysis of infographics and interviews, provided important notes about what can be availed from the awarded infographics in order to improve the infographics made for the schoolbooks, especially in regards of the use of color. Finally, the present research demonstrated how important it is to provide teaching-learning situations in which the students have the opportunity to appropriate the visual codes and hence their visual culture / Mestrado / Artes Visuais / Mestra em Artes Visuais
