Week 7 Blog Exercise_feature hierarchy

This image was a poster connected to my major, Visual Communication Design. It was an Art Deco Poster. This poster is composed of shape channel and color channel. These channels work together to create a feature hierarchy, which also display the depth of the composition.  The shape of the bird is detectable preattentively. The color feature channel over the shape feature channel of the bird makes the glass of wine more pop out. At the beginning, the viewer’s eye will detect the shape feature channel of the bird and the title because of their dominant size. However, the pop out of the color channel make the wine become the foreground contrasting to the background shape of the bird is more attractive to eyes of viewers. Color feature channel attract eye more effectively.
