media type="custom" key="4764167" I have been passionate about animals all my life, and animal rights is one of the issues I believe in most strongly, so I decided that raising awareness of animal cruelty and urging action would be an appropriate topic for this project. Looking through the backgrounds, I originally chose one that was red to symbolize the innocent blood that has been spilt, but the formatting didn’t work, so I changed to a black background, and worked with the flame one to symbolize the hellish lives abused animals are forced to live, but couldn’t find readable text colors. In the end, I resorted to a simpler black background which sets up a dark tone and mood for the piece. The pictures are all visual representations of the pain that animals suffer because of human actions or extreme lack thereof. The words are written from the point of view of all animals who are hurt, and the plea establishes mainly pathos, calling the audience to heed the pleas of the helpless. The colors on the words “life” and “death” also emphasize the importance and impact of actions that can be taken by humans. A red fill takes the place of the previous red background and reminds a reader of pain and blood. __Works Cited__ AmazonCARES. “There are so many dogs living like this.
