The Influence Of Images On Pull People

The well-crafted illustrations on the silent picture. Smith demonstrates that as we attempt to convey the truth sometimes the right images or picture will help the people to respond in the appropriate manner.

One of the rhetorical appeals, logos, is quite obvious, and the statistic in picture shows the appeal. The excerpt "92,000 documents revealed” is an example of logos. Another appeal applied in the pictures is ethos. This appeal was present because a reputable brand/service has sponsored or approved the message for each the pro and con. The brands include WikiLeaks and the US government respectively. The most prominent of the three appeals is pathos. An example of this is the faces of the people in the propaganda pictures; the pictures often show the other side having terrifying faces and portray them as vicious or aggressive. The most plentiful of the appeals is pathos, with is shown the use of diction and feeling-provoking pictures; this application of pathos impacts the pictures because pathos, widely regarded as the most powerful of the three appeals, is excellent at conveying a message and convey the purpose to the

When analyzing the photos logos, I broke the image down into its foreground and background and noted how each obvious and subliminal element added to the depth and understanding of the over all message. Then I analyzed in one group the Ethos/Pathos and explained how finding the image on BuzzFeed helped us understand the intended audience therefore leading us to the correct understanding of the photo. The photograph breaks many down many stereotypes of your cliché geriatric couple and shines a whole new light on what it means to be

They use their artistic skills as an aid to convey messages to people of all ages. Political cartoons appear all over the internet and social media. The cartoonists usually distort several of the characters’ physical features in order to emphasize a belief or criticize an idea in the society. A recent political cartoon depicts Donald Trump with a long nose. The cartoonist tried to influence the viewers into believing that Donald Trump is a liar, and he does not fit to be president. It might seem that the cartoonist drew the cartoon just to make the viewers laugh, but his goal was actually to present the reasons why US citizens should not vote for Trump. This drawing might not immediately cause the viewers to alter their attitude towards Trump, but the drawing will appear in the viewer's’ mind whenever the presidential election is mentioned. Sometimes, the cartoon might even influence the viewer to vote for Clinton instead of Donald Trump. The more entertaining a cartoon appear, the faster the picture will spread throughout social media and the internet. This will allow the cartoonist to spread his ideas to a greater amount of

However in politics people use ad campaigns of still photos all the time. Also photography can be ethical when it is used to help students learn about a topic like I did in biology, or help people in more privileged lands learn what is happening in other parts of the world such as third world countries. For example every year at our school we celebrate a day called women’s day in which people are educated on the struggles of women in patriarchal societies, much like the U.S. In many of the presentations given, presenters use photographs to show injustices such as sexual trafficking, rape victims, or sexist ads in order to spread awareness and help individuals to understand that there needs to be a change in society. On social media websites, people also post photographs about what is going on in society today whether it be politics, poverty, etc., which help those online to understand what is happening around them in the

In our daily basis we are bombarded with millions of images, but we rarely stop to think about what those images mean and what they are persuading us to do. Images can be found in many forms, newspapers, magazines, internet, radio, television, smart phones, social media and billboards, amongst other forms. Images have power, which is why individuals need to understand the messages being sent to them.

Visual rhetoric is the persuasion through images that appeal to the audience's pathos, logos, and ethos. The magnitude of seriousness about a problem could be depicted through images, such as a polar bear suffering due to global warming affecting their environment. Through these type of images, the reader emotion is stirred and they will understand that action need to be taken to save these polar bears. On the other hand, often times the argument (logos) that is shown may not be as persuasive to some people who can't be persuaded through their emotions (pathos). Therefore rendering the argument and image ineffective, in which case the artist will have to try a different perspective that strike the viewer's value so that they may understand

I know that, sometimes, instead of verbally telling my friend I hope she feels better (due to whatever reason) I text her a photo of a cat in a sweater. This image directly influences her mood in a way that my words may not have. I’m fascinated with the idea of the “non-linear, inconsistent, and unpredictable” ways images are distributed “within and across multiple networks.” The only control a human has over an image is its creation (if it is a graphic) and the very first place it is posted. This does not account for how individual humans will encounter the image, just its production and composition. Furthermore, the person creating the image will lose control over who views the image (the intended and unintended audiences). This is what leads to the transformation and possible satirization or an inversion of intent (protest versus call-to-action). This form of distribution and interpretation reminds me of how literature is void of authorial intent once it enters the public domain, depending on who encounters the text. Gries states this phenomena well when she writes that rhetoric “generates a multiplicity of consequences.” I think for this reason, it is incredibly hard to pinpoint the basic implications and methodology of visual rhetoric, as supported by the fact that Gries book, while engaging and interesting, is over 600 pages

In the modern world, we have few similarities to our ancestors. However, there are a few aspects of our culture that have lasted through the centuries. One of the most prominent is our constant use of symbols and pictures to convey complicated messages. One of the reasons for this is the fact that pictures can touch our emotions in a way that few things can. This interaction with emotion is especially useful in arguments. The picture taken to protest fracking used this knowledge to strengthen their argument that fracking for oil is harmful because of contamination the process leaves behind.

Discuss the use of imagery in two stories of your choice. How do the various images work in a particular story to bring its subject matter into focus? Is there a central image? And how does this enhance or confuse or complicate the effect of the story?

Before starting this project, I knew very little about photography, photographers, or exactly how much impact photographical images have had on our society. I have never taken a photography class, or researched too in depth about specific pictures or photographers. This project has allowed me to delve deeper into the world of photography in order to understand just how much influence pictures can have over society’s beliefs, emotions, and understandings’. I have have chosen two highly influential photographers, Diane Arbus and Dorothea Lange, who I have found to both resonate with me and perfectly capture human emotions in way that moves others.

Visual practices in this era are key elements for the president in order to enable his ideas to be conveyed to his audience, here he is able to Label individuals as heroes and villains, this is an ideal way of building a relationship with American society since they are bombarded by media to portray a vision of what is right and what is wrong, and usually there are victims and perpetrators. As the article elaborates, two important aspects to the process of visual interpretation, one of them being that the images are interpreted with already existing context; images come with words and historical baggage. Hence, our hero and villain dilemma, followed by visual images are presented as objective and authentic pieces of evidence, “not a representation of reality, but reality itself.” Pg.618

Imagery and politics are two closely related concepts. “Politics will eventually be replaced by imagery. The politician will be only too happy to abdicate in favor of his image, because the image will be much more powerful than he could ever be” (McLuhan, 1971). The image has the power to make or break the politician. The impact of imagery also applies to the Government as a whole. The image created by the government influences the support of the population; because of this correlation, information regarding government affairs goes through filters; information that could negatively impact the image of the government may not be provided to the public depending on how important it may be for the general population to know. In the beginning

Cartoons have been a prominent and interesting apparatus for politics throughout the ages. Political movements, parties, and groups using propaganda to further their beliefs dates back to the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Though America faces an austere history, lighthearted propaganda colors its decades and gives them life. Political cartoons are so widely used in America that they have become a significant piece of pop culture. Moreover, because of their ability to capture the reader’s attention, propaganda is exploited throughout politics.The cartoons are wonders of the human imagination; illustrators create comical images and intertwine profound political opinions to influence their viewer’s mind. For example, one movement that abundantly grew from propaganda was the women’s rights movement. The artists of the seemingly despised cause drew controversial cartoons that set a fire in the hearts of women all over the world. Consequently, the same cartoons ignited a passionate war between women who wanted freedom, and those who believed that women could not handle that freedom. Through the use of colorful concepts and daring expressions, political cartoons display the influence of the women’s rights movement throughout history, while the cartoons of Anti-Feminists demonstrates the world’s reaction to the movement.
