Visuals Visuals Visuals

Our reading for today in the Norton Field Guide was on Media/Design. In this reading I chose to focus more on the print text, due to the fact that this is what I use most often. Whatever the text, design decisions are always present. You can choose to do different things your typefaces, layouts, paragraphs, lists, headings, and even visuals. Visuals are a big thing for me. I think it is very important to have pictures. It makes text easier to read for me so I do not easily get bored. Your visuals can be pictures, graphs, charts, tables, or drawings. Things you want to remember however are:

• Position visuals in your text as close as possible to your discussion of the topic in which they relate.
• Number all visuals, using a separat sequence for figures and tables ( Figure 1, Table 2 )
