Visual Persuasion

As a form of social influence, persuasion is the process of guiding an audience toward a particular idea, attitude or even an action. 
Video has given me the proper tools 2 persuade with the two most common senses. 

Sight & Sound.

Videography has given me the power to change opinion and selectively give creative facts....


...but then along the way comes temptation 2 play the line between truth & untruth...hmmm

Life is composed of many shades of gray but truth may be defined by what an individual claim 2 know without regard 2 evidence, logic or fact.

Holding this power 2 present what I believe 2 be truth may be the very reason why I'm so drawn into this great art in the very first place.

Now that's something 2 think about....Yep!

Peace!...with 2 fingers;)

  1. I don't play with video stuff--though I thoroughly enjoy yours.
    I do make-believe that I can play photographer and I won't alter what I capture. It just is what it is.

    But I know how to change angles and change the perception of what's being looked at--I'm not sure that's changing what's true, but it is an opportunity to see things differently.

    *laughing* Maybe that's what you're saying!
    Maybe not.
