| TIME TRAVELLING POSTERS AND PICTURES
Make yourself go back into the not so distant past. Try to
remember the first poster you ever saw that made an impression
on you. The one you can still picture on your mind up to now.
What did it look like? What made the poster an unforgettable
one? Is it the message of the words written or the picture on
it? Or just simply the way it was done?
Or have you associated a picture with something or someone in
any way? For example, in stumbling upon one shot, you remember
your old room, your favorite chair, or your grandmother taking
you in her lap and singing songs. Memories that when comes back
when you think of the simplest thing.
Posters and pictures are the “feasts for the eyes”. We can see
them everywhere, in streets, restaurants, malls, just about any
place one can think of. People, being visual, tend to look first
before taking in the details. If they like what they see, then
they continue on exploring and taking other aspects. When we see
something simple, we dismiss it as boring and do not bother to
look for more. But if we see something that catches our eyes, we
tend to look longer and appreciate what is in front of us.
If you compared things from the past and the things now, you
would be amazed at the extent of chance that people are capable
of. People now can appreciate posters that give out realistic
colors and picture. Just by looking at them, one can feel as if
what is in the poster is real. By using vibrant graphics, people
can now have an initial idea what this places or persons look
like. Needing no words, the pictures tell it all. No need for
further explanation.
Pictures not only preserved time, it can also tell a story.
Looking at pictures, you get to think of what is happening there
during the time it was taken. Then you start making an order
based from the series of events. You make an ending of your own,
depending on the series of pictures that you have seen. All this
a person can do, by simply looking at pictures.
People should consider how fortunate it had been that they were
born in this time when everything is ultra-modern. Get a recent
picture and compare it with your parents’. Changes are already
recognizable in terms of texture, imagery and style. What
started out as black and white has evolved into a wide range and
variety of colors.
What would they think of next?
