The Use of Digital Manipulation: Its Alteration of Perception and Effectiveness in Advertising
[ send me this essay ]
This is a 5 page paper discussing the use of digital manipulation and its perception and effectiveness in advertising. Historically, images produced by photographers and appearing in public print or advertising were taken largely by the public as true unaltered images. This being said, society today is well aware that digital technology allows for images to be altered rather easily. Nevertheless, the public still believes that many of the images it views are still basically true in their depictions. This perception of the truth becomes distorted especially in the world of advertising when advertisers now have the opportunity to make their products look “better than the reality”. While it has been a given that many of the models pictured in magazines have undergone make-up sessions, what many people don’t realize is that many of the same photographs of the models have been digitally altered to make the models not only appear to be beautiful but they become, through digital enhancement, perfect. The image of perfection can be obtained digitally of course and it is this perception of perfection which advertisers are now able to easily sell to the public. Image perfection is not the only realm used by advertisers and news magazines to sell their products. Digital manipulation also allows advertisers to promote their products using advanced technological overlays which does not intend to deceive the public but can appeal to many different levels and ages in today’s society.
