Abstract

Visual characters used in television affect the viewers in a different way from printed media. This paper analyzed the visual characters presented in each home shopping channel and their year-by-year characteristics in terms of layouts. Based on the results, the readability was analyzed according to different layouts, suggesting optimal layouts that allows for better communication with the viewers. The purpose of this study is thus to focus on the visual character layouts, which have not been fully explored to date, in order to identify the most effective one among basic locations of visual characters. The results indicate that the bottom location shows higher readability than top. The right side showed higher preference than left, while readability did not demonstrate a significant difference. As for the L-bar and reverse L-bar, the L-bar arrangement was shown preferable in terms of readability. Finally, the layout should be determined considering the readability by location.

TV에서 사용되는 영상자막은 인쇄매체와는 다른 영향을 수용자에게 미치게 된다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 홈쇼핑 영상자막을 분석하고, 홈쇼핑 영상자막을 통해 화면구성의 특징을 고찰하였다. 이를 바탕으로 본 연구에서는 영상자막 화면구성에 초점을 맞추어 영상자막 위치에 따라 시청자에게 원활한 커뮤니케이션이 가능토록 하는 가독성에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 분석결과 영상자막이 상단보다 하단에 위치할 경우 더 높은 가독성이 나타났으며, 좌, 우의 경우에는 가독성에서 유의미한 차이가 나지 않았다. L바와 역L바의 경우에는 L바가 가독성에서 상대적으로 더 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결국 TV홈쇼핑 영상자막 화면구성은 영상자막의 가독성에 영향을 미친다.
