Meaning Making Textual EffectsUse any variety of textual effects (dynamic effects, css, fonts, colors,
animation, handwriting/drawing, java
applets,
etc) in a way which alters and enhances the
meaning(s) of the text itself. That is, if the words move, there must
be a reason
for them to be doing so; if they are shaped, colored, or otherwise manipulated,
it must be purposeful. Don't worry about others "getting" your
meaning; the making of meaning is just as much the reader's/viewer's
activity as it is yours. Your purpose is to create a textual effect which
allows meaning to be created. The text can be any length, from a single word to several sentences / lines. Models |
