Our program on October 25th was a presentation by Carolyn Draayer entitled “Living in a Visual World”. Carolyn is Don’s grand-daughter, a graduate of St. Olaf College, and has her own business making films for her clients.
 
She started by talking about visual images, and showed some examples of them. She added audio and music to demonstrate how important those sounds are in understanding the visual message. She then went on to explain that a good visual message with sound has to also create an emotional connection with the viewer, or there is no value in the work as far as changing or impressing the viewer with the intent of the message.
