The book is arranged by the photographers’ last name. Emphasis is put on the last name by making it bigger and bold. “And when people see bold type, they tend to recognize its emphasis, an understanding you’ll defeat by boldfacing everything. When they notice color that’s used consistently, the pattern can help to reinforce the element’s meaning” (Lipton 18). There is an index in the back of the book in alphabetical order, so viewers can easily locate the photographer that they want to know about.

Chinese Restaurant Calendar

The lines along the sides of the calendar lead the viewer to look from the top to the bottom. “We group lines and shapes that seem to be heading in the same direction. For example, on a bar graph, bars above zero are seen as one group, those below zero as another.” (Lipton 25). At the bottom of the calendar is information about the Chinese restaurant. It is grouped together so the viewer can easily remember the information.

Consider aligned contact info on a business card or an indented quotation within flush text. In both examples, grouped alignment reinforces the difference between two categories of type” (Lipton 18).

The synopsis of the movie is arranged so the viewer starts reading in the upperleft and leads them down to read about the special features of the DVD. “Faced with a text- packed page, people whose native language reads left to right tend to start at the upper left. Then we make our way as quickly as we can to the lower right of the page or spread in a kind of backwards N- shape. So place text along that natural eye path, because text generally takes the most motivation and effort for readers to follow” (Lipton 26). The quote “Two Thumbs Up!” is in large type and all in caps to get the viewer’s attention about the movie

ReadyMade Magazine

Bringing more attention to the magazine is the color of the text. Instead of using black, colors like orange and green are used to relate back to the image on the cover and the tone of the magazine. “Another possible aid to retention is color in or near emphasized items. Just realize that type in color might have less contrast—and thus less legibility—than black type. Putting color near the type adds the memory- enhancing benefit t of color without sacrificing legibility” (Lipton 29). Bringing more attention to the magazine is the color of the text.
