Just out of interest, I have found a couple of ASA rulings on film posters (more may likely follow). Perhaps unsurprisingly, given class discussion, both posters were featured on buses.
You should read through the decisions and consider how or why the posters were on the receiving end of complaint(s)… and whether you would agree with them. (And yes, this is all INSTITUTION stuff!)
Just spotted this on the BBC website. The artist has taken advertising images from the 1950s through to the present day, and removed all the text/copy from them. Lots of food for thought, and ties in beautifully with our reading of media. (Click the picture to visit the site)
Apologies for the lateness of this post. It’s been a very busy day. Anyway…
I had a wee discussion with one of the groups about trying to find the ‘wow’ factor when thinking of your own ideas, and was reminded of these clever and — in hindsight —surprisingly obvious photos from a recent Vogue fashion shoot.
