1) The similarities between visual and nonverbal communication are slightly varied but overall the same. They both operate on the interpreted meaning of the action of the picture. They both rely on the emotional or inferred response from the action or media.
2) I believe it to be completely ethical to make a website more engaging to increase sales or traffic. If a competitive edge can be found by adding more facets to the experience on the web site then the advantage lies with them. Implying that using homogenous behavior patterns to drive traffic is unethical is short-sighted to say the least.
3) The methods I would use to show the implementation of team based management and also the downturn in absenteeism and turnover would be two-fold. I would use an organizational chart to show the connections of the teams, management and interdepartmental relationships. I would use a line chart to depict the changes in the rates of absenteeism and turnover. I see those two mediums as the most effective way to visually portray the data in a positive, easy way.

5) If I were to film a lecture of one of my professors using three cameras I would position as follows: I would position one camera to be able to show the “black board” or any other visuals. I would position another to be able to provide tight shots of the professor while lecturing. Lastly I would place the third somewhere where it would accurately capture the viewpoint of someone in the crowd to bring the two tighter shots together and allow for transitions between visual aids and the professor.
