Shapes have different meanings. It is very important to understand their meaning in order to portray the right message in each visual communication.
The use of geometric shapes is generally preferred in logos’ creation. Indeed, they will do better than what we can do as humans. To perform logos or designs, it is therefore advised to use strength lines and basic shapes and then to use shape builder tools to remove extra traits.
But knowing shapes’ meanings is not only helpful for graphic design, but also in any kind of visual marketing like with photography or videography. In a photography or videography setting, shapes can be used through the objects forms or through the poses of the models and actors. Moreover, keeping in mind and playing with various scales gives also additional meaning.
