This Svedka bottle is part of a larger identity system by using the pride flag as an advertising strategy. The rainbow colors construct the system because they enable people celebrating pride to identify with the brand. Using this visual system put their brand aside from those that chose not to take a part of the pride month opportunity.
I think that the underlying agenda behind showing people melting glaciers is trying to make a point about they impact global warming is having on our planet. While the article doesn't specifically say “These melting glacier maps were made to showcase global warming’s impact” it definitely makes people consider A: why the glacier’s are melting and B: why they have melted this much in the past 50 years.
This poster for Mad Men in my opinion showcases a past “style.” I think that they are trying to signify city life and corporate life due to the big sky scraper buildings in the design. I also think that the cigarette pack design of the whole poster is trying to allude to the smoking of cigarettes during that time period in which the show took place.
Symbolic function- this picture shows the symbol of the LGBTQ community, which is the rainbow flag in the background. The fist in the front also symbolizes humankind and the different bars of colors show that any person of any race can identify as LGBTQ.
Indexical function- this shows an indexical function because the hair of the little cactus in the second picture from the left, is very defined and neat looking in reaction to being brushed.
Iconic function- this design resembles a music festival in the sense that there are tents, lights, and an audience in the background. All of these icons show the greater image of a music festival scene at night time.
Connotative meaning - The color scheme used in this drawing evokes a feeling of the plains or the western part of the United States. Specifically, the light and neutral greens give me the idea that this person in the front of the image was a pioneer of sorts since the drawing clearly shows an image from the past. I think that they could have done a little more to tell the audience about how she was a medical pioneer, for example, the classic Red Cross symbol would have given a stronger connotative meaning leaning towards the medical side.
The denotative meaning behind this piece of design is to showcase Susan La Flesche Picotte’s 152nd Birthday. By using the background to show Native American homes as well as an old hospital, Google told a story about how Picotte was the first American Indian woman to earn a medical degree. They also used smaller details to tell people specially that she was a doctor, for example her medical bag has a stethoscope hanging out of it.
Font connote something more than the text- This FedEx logo is an example of text that is connoting something more than the text. If you look at the “ex” you will see that there is an arrow formed in the negative space of the letters. This to me means that they are connoting more beyond the logo itself.
Modern- I think that this design portrays a modern feeling because it showcases the growing of an industrial or technological industry. The image depicts a baseball with an iMessage on top of it.
Tall descenders with small x height- the letters with ascenders and descenders in this logo showcase an example of typography that uses a small x height.
This logo uses a font that has comparatively smaller ascenders. The lowercase I is almost the same size as the capital P at the beginning of the logo. I think that this showcases a font with small ascenders.
Crossbar- a capital letter A gives an example of a letter that contains a crossbar. The section colored in blue that connects the other lines is an example of a crossbar.
Counter- a lowercase p showcases an example of a counter in typography. The section highlighted red in the middle of the letter defines a counter.
Descender- this example of a lowercase q showcases a letter that has a descender. Because the line on the right extends underneath the rest of the letter, this q is an example of a descender.
Ascender- this lowercase letter h is an example of a letter that has an ascender. Because the line on the far left goes above the rest of the letter, this is an example of an ascender.
Hierarchy - this design shows hierarchy through text by using different sized text in all three lines. The bottom line, the smallest line, is also in a serif font rather than a san serif font.
