Introduction to Multimodal Analysis is a unique and accessible textbook that critically explains this ground-breaking approach to visual analysis.Now thoroughly revised and updated, the second edition reflects the most recent developments in theory and shifts in communication, outlining the tools for analysis and providing a clear model that students can follow. Chapters on colour, typography, framing and composition contain fresh, contemporary examples, ranging from produ...

Visual communication shapes our perceptions and experiences of the world. This is not only a question of photographs or video, but also the design of websites, the use of data visualization software, the branding of packaging, and even the design of buildings and furniture.Doing Visual Analysis: From Theory to Practice provides a concrete set of tools to research and analyse this wide range of visual data. Showing students how to apply the right mix of methods to t...

This is an interactive mini course designed with questions to help the reader develop a project where they are helping people achieve something bigger than themsleves. Maybe a person wants to start a foundation, or a wet-land, or maybe an all volunteer emergency response team. The reader first must understand human nature and how to influence people. The reader starts with a self evaluation and then makes observations in the work environment based on criteria established in their self eval...
