News stories on TV and in newspapers are very often accompanied by pictures. Some people say that these pictures are more effective than words. What is your opinion about this?
Nowadays, the media uses posters while publishing news on television and newspapers. A group of people states that these drawings have more impact than the story itself
however
others refute the same. My opinion is aligned with the former view and below is the supporting ideas for the same.
Firstly
, an image speaks more than words
. This
is because a thousand words
essay can be easily described in a simple picture. This
is the reason why these photos
are used in hoardings on roads to give a message
to the driver. Furthermore
, televisions use the animations to make the audience understand the new concept in the market. For an instance, in 2020, a tax regime was introduced by the South African Government and all the efforts by media to make the public understand the concept verbally was failed and finally
succeeded by an animation. This
proves how an image has a powerful impact on one’s understanding.
Secondly
, the public remember photos
and colours longer as compared to words
. This
is because society will forget messages written in words
but can easily recollect images by seeing any photographs that resembles
the original image. Change the verb form
resemble
Moreover
, the colour used in photos
speaks various things like red means danger or stop and white means peace. For example
, the red light used in the car or in traffic signal is used to send the message
that the driver needs to apply the brake. This
red colours in poster mean danger and almost every person in the world understand. That is
the reason why safety messages on the road or on electrical appliances always written in red.
To conclude, words
may describe things in a more structured way but the actual and more impact message
always provided by photographs. These photos
not only make people understand the concept in a faster way but also
remembers the message
for a long time. In my opinion, a picture is the best way to communicate in real life.Submitted by barun.manish on
