Audio-visual communication that makes use of telecasts, short films on the cinema screen and video tapes is a powerful medium of communication. It is a combination of sight and sound. It may make use of the written word also.
Visual communication is not found to be adequate in itself. People will just casually glance at it and let it go at that. It is quite likely that they will miss the message. But if the slides are accompanied with explanation and narration, it will facilitate interpretation and ensure that the message is driven home. Besides information transmitted through audio-visual means is retained much longer than through any other means. It is a matter of common experience that people can easily recall some of the powerfully depicted scenes of a movie years after they have seen it.
Audio-visual communication is found most suitable for mass publicity, mass propaganda and mass education. Large business houses frequently make use of this technique to educate their workers and to popularize their products. The working of a new household appliance like a mixer or a washing machine, the effectiveness of a new detergent powder, the freshness of new designs in suitings and shirtings can be effectively demonstrated through audio-visuals means. Within the organization, the workers can be educated by suitable demonstrations on the close circuit television screen.
