Intended Meanings

By now I am sure that you are seeing a reoccurring theme in our class - We can create something, but people will view it differently depending upon many different factors.

This week we will examine the intended meanings of the creator of a work and compare that with how the image may be viewed in different situations.

- To this end we will look for examples of images that successfully convey their producer's intended meanings, and we will also look for some that do not.

For this assignment we will get into our groups from the last class period and look for images to examine and discuss with the class.

Each group should look for:

• 5 images that successfully convey their producer's intended meaning.
• 5 images that do not successfully convey their producer's intended meaning.

We will post the images and the group's discussion of each of them on our class blog. - I will walk you through this in class today.
