These are also some of Canon's values, which
is a larger proportion and variation
This is an explanation of what their values are. For example,
in "What We Value" is basically how and what their product
(canon) can produce and how it can / could influence
people to use the cameras and see what they can create
with their creativity
Canons Visions

Canons the world’s imaging trade name

reason they are always innovated is because
they always want to be a head of the

that they don’t produce something worse than

On this poster of the advertisement the
designer has placed the camera in the eye
of the chameleon which has very good
eyesight and not only that they can change
between both monocular and binocular
vision. Furthermore, the chameleon is
looking at you and the background is
blurred which is telling us that the lens of
the camera is exactly like the chameleon
eyesight.
The designer has made sure that the
"Canon Redefine your FOCUS" is the one
of the things that catches your eye aswell
as the chameleon and it has done that by
bluring the background out making them
the prime thing that’s is focused on.
On this advertisemrnt of the canon camera I blurs out the background to make us focus on the camera what has
been placed in front of us, the reason why is because they are showing that the canon camera can take very
good quality pictures as if you were there taking the picture, furthermore it also shows that it can take pictures
of things that are far away like the bridge at the front and still being able to see the bridge at the back and picks
up detail very well.
There are a few things that I do and don’t like about this type of advertisement for the canon camera, the things I do like is
that they have used a black background to really make the camera look bold and, in your face, making all the detail really
show. Furthermore, I like how it features all the other things it has for example the 6400 IOS and the 18.0 Mega Pixels
However, what I don’t like, even though they have mentioned the great things about the camera, some views don’t always
read or understand what they mean and go for the visuals, so I would have made the background something jaw dropping
with what the camera is capable of producing. Although I like the black background it doesn’t really show what it can do.
What do you need to create?
What we need to create is a poster for the Canon client to promote it towards an audience
that will grasp their attention and potentially get them into making canon products
For my idea ill use an image of me where I was a
little overweight and then into fitness side by side
