People tend to views an image based on how society say it should be they tend to interpret the image on those assumption, but never their own assumptions.

My poster contains images that I used to give a very brief imagery of Dr. Paul Farmer’s life. In the center I put a large photo of him so someone could see his full facial appearance. I put the logos for Duke University and Harvard University to show where he went for his schooling. I put Duke’ logo on blue construction paper to represent the school’s blue colors, and I put Harvard’s logo on red construction paper for the same reason.

I put two pictures of Farmer treating Haitian patients, because the majority of his life’s work is treating poor people in Haiti. I put the picture of Haitian hands holding a cross to represent the religious belief of Haitians. Many of Farmer’s patients had trouble
Quinn was helping Steve fight Ultron by teleporting back and forth until she could hit the few bots that came, out of the quick moving train. It wasn't until Steve was knocked down when Pietro had ran into the train hitting Ultron and Wanda appeared after. Wanda had used her powers holding up a gate so Ultron could not get Quinn, Steve, or Pietro. One of the bots had knocked Quinn down, so she was on the floor in between seats when Pietro and Wanda had appeared. "Please. Don't do this." Ultron pleaded as he realized that the twins were now against him. "What choice do we have." Wanda said, and Quinn felt a bit more safe when she realized Pietro and Wanda were there now on her side. Ultron sent a blast to Pietro, which he blocked, shattering

Often by comparing an idea to an object that can be symbolically related somehow, the level of understanding is increased, and then that object can later be used as a trigger mechanism for recalling the specifics of that concept (Matlin, 1998, p. 351).

Grabbing someone’s attention with a poster can be tricky. The colors, scenery, words, actors, together will see what makes a person want to attend a movie. “The Blood of the Vampire”is the poster that I chose to describe.
Imagery comes in more than one form. One category, called visual imagery, is imagery that appeals to one's sight. We want to envision what the speaker is seeing, but without sensory language it is hard to picture. Wilfred Owen guides us through “Dulce et Decorum Est” with ease as he incorporates detail into his work. In line fourteen he could easily say that the gas smothered another man near him, but instead he proclaims “As under a green sea, I saw him drowning”(Line 14). I am certainly glad that Owen used this diction because it created a scene that stayed inside my head much longer than if he had taken a simpler route.

Interstellar, directed by Christopher Nolan, was a very complex and interesting sci-fi movie. This movie in particular has a lot of factors playing into the movie. Everyone is able to find their favorite part about the movie, and various people can watch this movie and connect with it. This movie came out in 2014, and shocked millions of people by its intense ending. Interstellar was awarded for best visual effects, and then nominated for many other things including, best original score, best sound mixing, and best sound effects which played a huge role in making the movie.
