Class Exercise B

Task: Apply constructive criticism model in evaluating design / artwork / picture

Group Members:
●       Wee Teck Peng
●       Muhammad Sadiq Bin Samsudin
●       Sheikh Umar Bin Abdul Ajees

Avatar Movie Poster
 Description
●      Advertisement for the movie Avatar
●      Logo of McDonalds on the top right
●      Gradient of colour noticed (Darker on the foreground)
●      Background of a forest
Analysis
●      The logo of McDonalds can be easily spotted with the colour contrast of the advertisement
●      Gloomy face portrayed by the Avatar
●      The face is modified - The Avatar has features of a human
●      The fonts for the descriptive text at the bottom are not visible enough
Interpretation
●      McDonalds showing support for the movie
●      It only promotes the movie, but what about McDonalds?
●      The dark foreground seems to present the presence of evil
Judgment
●       Consumers are not certain what the advertisement is focusing on (Is McDonalds part of the advertisement or is it a sponsor?) (-)
●       The gloomy face of the avatar may not appeal to target audience (Hesitant to buy McDonalds?) (-)
●       The picture doesn’t tell much or entice audience about the story (-)
●       At least it is not ambiguous in showing that it is something related to Avatar (+)
●       Colour of the wordings were able to blend properly in the picture (+)
