The image above is a Film Poster, the first image I have included is a image of the real Johnny Cash. It shows him smoking a cigarette and it looks like he is thinking about life. I included this image because I think it shows how depressed he is and how hard his life was well. The image below this one is an image of Ray Cash, Johnny Cash's real father, I chose to include his father in my visual text because based off the film, Johnny Cash and his father weren't really close. This is shown when the aftermath of Jack Cash (Johnny Cash brother) funeral, when his father said the devil took the wrong son, this is indicating that he wanted Johnny Cash in his brothers place instead of the other way around. Another example of this is when its thanksgiving time and Johnny Cash is a middle aged man and he invites his family and June Carters family and he had just gotten slightly better, during this scene he said "I'm really glad you came daddy" and along some other lines he said he really wanted to make his father proud of him. The next image is on the upper centre, this is a photo of 2 brothers walking together, this photo represents that Johnny Cash still thinks of his brother on a daily. I couldn't find a real picture of Jack and Johnny cash or even a photo from the movie Walk The Line but this photo shows when I assume when they were going fishing when they were younger and they would walk together and they'd play a game, This showed the close bond they had together. The image below this picture is a picture of Johnny Cash performing for his supporters and fans, this image represents the relationship he had with his music and how sometimes he needed it because it would help him cope with his addictions and other times it would influence it and make it worse for him. For example, he made songs about his depression and I dont notice that in the movie about his life, but there are songs that I've seen on Youtube. It also helped with his relationship with June Carter. Times a Wastin which June Carter wrote with her ex-husband but June Carter and Johnny Cash did sing this song together. The next image I chose was a picture of a glass which has alcohol in it as well, next to it is a half full bottle of the alcohol brand Jack Daniels. In front of the alcohol bottle is a ashtray with a lit cigarette and the smoke that floats upwards. The very last image is a picture of the real Johnny Cash and June Carter, the background is a wood, pecan brown and nailed onto it is what I assume an american flag. Obviously Johnny Cash and June Carter is the main topic, June Carter is wearing a long sleeve white dress with lace fabric on the collar and the wrists. Her arms are crossed in a weak manner while she is smiling at the camera. Behind her is Johnny Cash, I can see he is wearing a tuxedo with a baby blue shade and something underneath the collar, but you can tell it is not a tie or a bow. His figure is holding June Carters frame with their heads side by side but his facial expression looks like a sly smile while just looking at the camera. I chose to have these to picture together because it shows what Johnny Cash has come from, and how June Carter helped him cope with his addiction with her love. 

The quote I decided to include in my visual text is "Fortunately I have kept my feathers for just such an emergency. I chose this quote because it shows how much his brother meant to his, and even as a middle aged man with many years have already passed he is still grieving his brother death, the colour I chose goes from a white gray colour to a transparent blue. I chose these colour because gray represents depression and that's what Johnny Cash had to go through for a majority of his life until he finally found calmness and peace with his wife June Carter, but even then I believe he still felt guilt. Slowly the colour transfers to a blue, this is also why I chose June Carter to be the last picture because she was the only one who saw the true colours of Johnny Cash.

5 questions

The visual text I am going to create is poster

I am going to base my static image on Walk The Line

I am going to use the colours gray/white, black and a few shades of blue

I am going to use these because colour shows meaning and the meaning behind grey holds the emotion depression and Johnny Cash went through that alone for a while until he met June Carter who helped his cope with his addictions.

The symbols I will use are symbols that resembles his relationships.

The quote I chose is "Fortunately I have kept my feathers for just such an emergency" This quote shows his relationship with his brother.

I am going to use these images because this helps properly present how he struggled in his lifetime and how June Carter helped his cope and overcome his addictions
