Task 1b
- 2. CARTOON Cartoon, this is a mouse however in a carton format it will look exaggerated and in real life a mouse wont look like this, it definitely wont smile and stand on two feet. Cartoon also uses a different variety of bright colours to make the characters in the cartoon stand out, a rat would be grey or white but this one is brown with massive pink ears. In this image no text has been used, so the main focus for us is to look at how the cartoon is presenting the character This is photo is of a character called Jerry, Jerry is a mouse from a well known TV show (Tom & Jerry). In this TV show we can witness the two character fighting and arguing, this show is in the genre cartoon as we can see. Cartoon shows originated back in the late 1970s due to computer programmes needed to make this possible
- 3. FUTURISTIC Futuristic involves ultra modern things that could be added into our life's in the future such as massive spaceship shown on the poster It also involves robots, robots are predicted to be part of our life's soon or later so this would mean this poster is futuristic. Text is in the bottom corner however it doesn’t really impact the poster, the typography used wouldn’t really attract our eyes to it, plus we are more drawn onto the futuristic objects in the image E.g. Robots and spaceships The colours don’t really stand out as it’s a dark image itself, it’s a gloomy picture and barely explains much Futuristic movies and videos have been around for almost a hundred years, however every time a new one is out it seems to be more futuristic than the old one. This poster here is of a film which brought in 198.5 million USD, Total Recall was one of the best futuristic films in 2012, arguably the directors of many futuristic films claim this movie to be more futuristic than most out there.
- 4. PHOTOREALISM Photorealism in this image is hard to spot as the images are similar. Both of the pictures look real however the right one is drawn by an artist this is why its called photorealism. This image does not contain text as we spot photorealism without a title or a text explaining what it is. Both of the colours on these images look identical and has not been modified, however we can tell the difference if we pay extra attention to the images clearly. These images are analysed so it can be duplicated by an artist, there is no composition in the image and our main point of focus is the slight difference in each picture. It also does not include text so they would be no typography included Photorealism barely consists of highly powerful computers, but instead is consists of highly talented artist who have abilities to reproduce an exact copy of a original piece whether it’s any type of photo. This picture here is the same however it has the slight differences if not payed attention clearly identifying these will be hard, definitely get mistaken over which one is the original. Photorealism have been about for a very long time, since art was invented however computer photorealism have been about since the software's/programmes were available.
- 5. COMPARISON Cartoons are produced to entertain really young audience however it is also enjoyable for young adults as it was part of their childhood. When growing up you find more genres more entertaining. Futuristic movies have identical features to cartoons, one massive feature they both have is to exaggerate the content. Exaggerating the content would be done in their own way, in futuristic the content is exaggerated to an extent where everything in the moving image product is futuristic E.G. flying cars, roads in the sky, robots and many other features. In cartoons we have a well known cartoon called Tom & Jerry which is extremely exaggerated in a way to make the audience believe that fighting (brutally) is normal and everything will be fine. Also the most common activities in cartoon that prove the exaggeration is extreme is when the animals start speaking, a great example would be Madagascar which is about animals and somehow these animals have the ability to speak. On the other hand we have the futuristic genre that contains exaggerated futuristic content. However photorealism is a whole different level, this can bring a dead person back to life. In movies (Fast and furious 7) photorealism was used to bring back the dead actor Paul Walker, it was used alongside CGI this is another form of photorealism. This is mostly used in
