Visual Rhetoric

Visual rhetoric is something that I think everybody uses on a daily basis.  Anything from the way we dress, what we post on face book or Instagram, or how we present a power point presentation or something like that.  For instance, I usually like to dress in brighter clothes because that’s just what kind of colors I like.  I also like to dress very casual, like shorts, t-shirt, and flip flops or something like that.  When I go to church, obviously I dress in nice Sunday clothes but I will usually roll up my sleeves and wear a bright colorful tie or something to put my own personality into it.  However, during job interviews I usually dress as nice as possible and try not to wear anything to flashy that stands out.  I want to make myself as professional looking as possible for things like that.

Another thing that I do to show visual rhetoric is just the way I design my face book page and the pictures I post on Instagram.  I design my face book page with all the things I like with all my favorite colors.  I just try to design it so that it appeals to me and shows my personality.  The pictures I post on Instagram are things I like as well or pictures I took that I think look really cool to me.  I just post design and post things that portray my personality.  I think visual rhetoric is very important to learn and be aware of because it’s something that everybody sees and usually judges you on at first.
