Visual rhetoric not only allows you to express a persuasive
opinion via photos or videos but it helps you capture your audience attention
at a much faster rate. I do believe that visual rhetoric is something to be
aware of. I would agree that learning it would be great as well but considering
how many people are constantly blogging or on some sort of social media, I’m
pretty positive they already invest in making visual rhetoric without even
realizing it.
I like most typical girls keep some sort of social media
such as Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Pinterest, and a blog. I believe that my
personal blog displays most of my visual rhetoric. On my blog I tend to post a
lot about my personal life, photos, and/or videos that exemplify the life I
live. It is through my blog that one can get a true genuine sense of who I am
as a person. Though I try my hardest to keep my blog updated it’s getting a bit
more difficult to do with school and finals.
Moreover, I also use visual rhetoric by the way I dress.
Most days (key word here being most) I try to dress girly and nice—by dressing
well I feel like I send off the message that I am a girl who is well put
together and tends to have things correctly organized. While other days I will
wear jeans and a hoodie due to the fact that I either slept in or did not want
to put effort in how I look. The way one dresses or presents themselves shows
not only their mood but also how they feel about themselves. For example when dress
real bummy (sweats, hoddie, hair up with no make-up) probably will mean I’m
having a bad day and that I do not feel good. These are the days to avoid me
haha. In all seriousness though, I believe that we send out some sort of visual
rhetoric about ourselves/our lives through the way we dress and what we post on
social media each day. Therefore, visual rhetoric is very important for our
every day life.
