Composition - Research and Proposal Project

Today I am reading about Composition from Reading Images - The grammar of visual design by kress and leeuwan.

Need to think about the composition how it would work in my project and to able to engaged the audience when watching a video / film etc.

Visuals need to be combined with subtitles, image, voice and signer... how it would work, where it all would be in position into the composition and if able to see everything happening in the video clip like they do on TV.

This is where multi modal comes in...

This applies to when you are reading book, magazine, newspaper..

Example comes in here is background material could be anything another frame would be signer on top of the background...

Image/Identity and Research Proposal

As i was reading visual methodologies by gillian rose for my image and identity and came across this page 30 figure 1.4 sites, modalities and methods for interpreting visual materials, this is good way to use it for my research proposal and maybe in image and identity as well if i can work it way into it.

it also documents the hearing and speech tests involving boring and time-consuming visits to hospitals, which were a regular feature of my childhood. Not something I had any pleasure doing.
