visuals
Images and diagrams
Visuals are the visual elements of something—the images, graphics, or video components as distinct from text or audio.
A presentation's visuals might include charts and photographs.
A film's visuals refer to its cinematography and imagery: The movie had stunning visuals but a weak script.
In advertising and media, visuals often means the graphic materials accompanying a campaign.
