Week 6: Juxtaposition 1

Juxtaposition:
Contrast – Compare two different things such as images, words phrases or sound. This helps how you attract the audience and how can you influence on them.
Juxtaposition: is the secret of effecting people. It’s a kind of image magic. Nowadays, I think if we want to measure how much we can effect on people, we shall see how much we juxtapose by using visual statements.



Juxtaposition is a circumstance where two unlike things are next to one another. It has a quality of being unexpected.
A teacup and its saucer are expected.
A kitten that sees itself reflected in a mirror as a lion is not.



A juxtaposition is the act of comparing or contrasting two items or ideas.
For example: Shakespeare's "All's Well That Ends Well" contains elements of both comedy and tragedy, an interesting juxtaposition.
1. an act or instance of placing close together or side by side,esp. for comparison or contrast.
2. the state of being close together or side by side.
