Image and Text

Photos most of the time convey there purpose or meaning strait away thought the message, meaning... can sometimes be distorted. By adding some text the message of the photo becomes clear and if presented in the correct way still allows the viewers mind to wander and imagine.

This house look plain and simple thought slightly run down you would not guess what this photo was depicting without and text or research. This small hose was built on ground sold to the government from a chemical producer who used it as a tip to dump there rubbish and waste. The waste now under the houses was causing illness and informative in the babies born and brought up on this land.
The text can change the mood of a photo something that looks quite beautiful could become a murder scene. This text can also entice the viewer so the might take a second look or be attacked to something they dismissed before.

Text rather than added after can be integrated into the photo and or become the focus. Sometimes the photo can be created for the purpose of showing the text rather than the other way round. For example someone holding a board with text on looking successful e.g. in a suit but the text is a plea to help escape the rat race. The photo was created with the idea of conveying emotion and that a face dose not tell all. 

Text can be needed rather than wanted as people can be a fended that you have not told the whole story and just taken a possibly horrid photo which has a perfectly reasonable explanation. A picture can tell a thousand words but not always the exact truth.

Batman TV series joker / Batman the dark night 2008 film joker

The 1966-68 television series featured actor Adam West as the Caped Crusader, and

Burt Ward who donned nylon stockings and fairy boots for his portrayal of the

erstwhile sidekick. The TV show was bright colorful and comical,which was aimed

towards a family audience and was a way to show off the bright colors on the newish 

color TVs.Many of the bad guys were devious and broke rules but never anything 

exceptionally bad. The joker was original a criminal in a clowns outfit, which related to

the family audience with some children having a fear of clown. Cesar Romero portrays 

the character in the 1960s Batman television series. The Joker of this series is 

characterized by a cackling laugh and comedy-themed crimes, such as turning the 

city's water supply into jelly and pulling off a stand-up comedy-themed bank heist. In 

one episode he competed with Batman in a surfing contest.

The 2008 joker played by the late Heath Ledger is a  murdering sociopath who

 terrorizes Gotham City and whose goal is to plunge it into anarchy. the 2008 joker 

wheres the costume because the scars he has on both cheeks matches in with a clown

wide smile what makes this joker even more scary is that he never gives the same

answer to how he revived the scars,giving the character mystery which enhances his

insane state of mind. the 2008 film made batman real relating to many technologies of

the time and showing death and destruction. The deth of one of the main characters

really made this hit home this is something that was never thought of during the TV 

series thought clif hangers happend the story line never realy continued more than

2-3 shows.

A group called FOAM created these huge paper-craft posters for RCA band Dry the
River. they designed the 3D horses in Google Sketch Up before printing out all of the
component parts and assembling them by hand. Each poster took around 35 hours to
complete.Once they were built they were hung around London with the help of hammer
and some rusty nails. to advertise the posters themselves they a charming short film
showing passers-by reacting to the posters this i found was enginouse anyone not
lucky enough to vie these remarkeble horses could still see them through the video
advertising them in turn advertising the band which they were originally created for. the
video is on you tube which so many people use now i have put a link under the photo.
