Mass Communication

Mass Communication is the method in which ideas are spread throughout the masses. In an art context, it is widely used in Graphic Design, Advertising, and Communication Design. Whether or not those ideas are communicated with words or shapes is up to the creator of each piece. People throughout the years have used mass communication in things like propaganda campaigns, advertising for a product, graphic design, and many other things. The reason graphic design cant be clumped in with advertising is because instead of creating a piece to communicate a product, Graphic designers use mass communication to show ideas and philosophy.
