After watching the Will Ferrell short, embedded in this months issue of Wired magazine for the iPad, it gave me pause. Photographs have been used as an advertising vehicle in magazines, newspapers and many other print media. In the hands of a skilled photographer, concepts can be delivered in a concise format. The question, however, is always: did the the viewer “get it”?
Wired magazine and may other publications are experimenting with the iPad as a way to transmit media through the moving picture. In this short we are presented with the dilemma of weather or not a picture could tell the story as accurately as the video. You be the judge.
