Suggestions for effective visuals

  • ‘Shock’ value, unusual, unexpected (for example men using a vacuum cleaner in some societies)
  • Emotional reaction (food, babies, animals)
  • Close-ups
  • Variation in sizes
  • Colourful
  • Creative editing
  • Prominent position
  • Content/context not immediately clear, makes you look twice, intriguing
  • Tells a story
  • Gives a insight to ‘behind the scenes’
  • Value-added caption
