Problem: Gestalt and Advertising
Find and submit a recent print or digital advertisement that exhibits one of the Gestalt principles. Explain how the visual cues within the composition exhibit your chosen Gestalt. How do you think the advertiser used the principle to effectively communicate their concept? How was it not effective? When writing your answer, consider the following:
1. Advantages and disadvantages to a topic.
2. Give examples that illustrate the main concepts. Use a personal experience, or you may create an example.
3. Find related articles about the topic. Cite these findings and make relevant connections to the chosen topic.
4. Use the first paragraph of your response to summarize your discussion topic so your readers can make the connection to your topic choice.
5. How is your response relevant to the overall aspects of this course? How does this topic relate to past topics discussed in class?
