ABSTRACT
Imagery is a key factor in modern media. More than ever before, both serious and entertainment titles rely on video and still images to grab their audience's attention. When thinking about how to visualise a story, you should reflect on the pictures you have found interesting or amusing, and consider the techniques that have been used. These might be good composition, how the subject has been placed in the frame or the use of colour in the image. Understanding why an image works in a particular setting will help you develop the ability to make picture choices that match the editorial ethos of a title and capture the mood of a story, as well convey as information.
