Graphical Design |
Exaggerated emphasis upon graphics and special effects weakens
the message and interferes with the communication of content
and ideas |
Graphical and multimedia elements accompany content but there
is little sign of mutual reinforcement. There is no attention
paid to visual design criteria such as balance, proportion,
harmony and restraint. There is some tendency toward random
use of graphics. |
Design elements and content combine effectively to deliver
a high impact message with the graphics and the words reinforcing
each other. |
The combination of multimedia elements with words and ideas
takes communication and persuasion to a very high level, superior
to what could be accomplished with either alone. The mixture
brings about synergy and dramatic effects which reach the intended
audience. |
