The first contemporary icon I chose was the Instagram icon. Instagram is a form of social media. I would say it is the latest “craze”. It allows users to post pictures with different filters and formatting options and then allows the user’s followers to comments and “like” the photos. Instagram means a lot to me in recent years as many of my best friends have moved out of Columbus and it allows us to post memories and continue our communications with each other even though we no longer live in the same places.
The second contemporary icon I chose was the Geico Gecko. This little guy is part of a automobile insurance advertising campaign that brings humor and lightheartedness to the insurance industry. This icon means a lot to me as I work for an auto insurance company. I find this to be the best advertising campaign in the industry.
The third contemporary icon I chose was the American Horror Story: Coven symbol. American Horror Story has been a pop culture phenomenon. The show has a cult following and has gotten rave reviews with many critics. There have been three seasons that all have a different storyline. This allows someone who had missed a season to watch another season and not have to catch up. This icon means a lot to me because it is my favorite show. My friends and I have weekly viewings together.
