Visual literacy is something very important for different kinds of disciplines like Graphic design, because it helps us to know in a very accurate way about how to express something better without confusion.
The visual literacy is an ability to know how to interpret and make a meaning from information and presented in image form, in other words, how to express or communicate an idea with pictures like movies, animations, comics, or photographs in a better way.
This is very important in this days because is the way that we try to tell a story, when we make a project like a movie, an animation or a comic we are trying to tell a story or something, in other words, make other people to understand our idea and meaning of our work.
If weren’t for the visual literacy you wouldn’t realize when a person is happy or angry in a movie, it’s simple, see around you right now, see a photograph, a poster or something… you get a message in your mind about it? How the people or the environment feels? Ok, if you did and you got it, congratulations, you used visual literacy to understand and feel that idea.
Right now, for example, TV commercials, need to know how to communicate things in 30 seconds, you must make other to get the right idea that you want to tell, or in other words, tell a story.
To understand about how to use visual literacy starts with facial expressions, environment, moves, and obviously, from where are you watching the action, how to understand and how to make it is something that is learn with experience and practice.
Imagine a movie where you understand something different than the real main meaning, or worse, you couldn’t understand it, how it feel? Yeah.. That is the importance of visual literacy..
how do you know what they are telling you?
