I wanted my visual response work to somewhat link in with my essay work. From my investigation into propaganda through my essay, I was intrigued by how design can influence the way we think, interact, and move. My natural progression of thought from this was to move on to investigate specifically what elements of design can affect our mentality.
I decided that I wanted to look at visual symbols and techniques which are used, and how they are used. After considering what I wanted to look at, I created the following proposal.
'To investigate how visual elements can be used to manipulate the way we think, control what we assume and how we react when looking at them.
Investigating differing types of persuasive techniques and symbols, I will look at the visual applications of these, be it social, instructional or subliminal.'
My thought behind the wording of this proposal was chosen so it could give me freedom to explore as many elements of design as I pleased, but also would give me the opportunity to investigate specific elements and explore them further if I should so choose.
