What: This past week, in English 95 Professor Reid went over Visual Rhetoric for our class. Visual Rhetoric is everything we see, and the factors that compile the image, such as: coloring, font, size ect. are used to persuade how the audience feels or acts.
So what: By understanding Visual Rhetoric, you can understand how the details of everything can be used to evoke the audience into your way of thinking. It will also help those who use visual rhetoric to better their critical thinking.
What now: I plan on using Visual Rhetoric in everything I present. This is to keep my works appropriate, and to better how the audience will feel.  

Question: if I remix an original image of something that is overall popular and pleasurable, like the Disney logo, and change the coloring to black and red, would it change the audiences feelings? Or will the audience not mind, because it is already well established and loved?

  1. Another question to ask yourself: "Can I use an image from Disney? What about copyright laws?"
