Preface

                        My group chose to focus our website on Dodger stadium and Chavez Ravine. We used our techniques to inform as well as persuade anyone affected by the construction of Dodger Stadium. We chose to pick the side of the Dodger stadium and represent them. Along the with persuasion we used ethos, logos and pathos in our website.

                        For this web project we had to de-familiarize Dodger stadium. We all had to become non Dodger fans and advocate without being one sided. We used pathos for the sympathy and emotions towards the people from Chavez Ravine. We wanted to make sure that we showed how we felt and our concerns about what happen.  We also used emotion to apologize for what happen and the building of dodger stadium. 

            Chavez Ravine was once the home of many Hispanics. It was the playground of children the history of families and the home of all of them. They were promised better days, money and better homes. There were people who were up for it while others refused to leave. To this day there are people who have not received their money of compensation.

            For Pathos we used our sympathy for the people of Chavez Ravine. We support the building of Dodger stadium. We show pathos because although we support the stadium we feel for the people who lost their homes. I would personally  be angry as well as devastated to be take away from a place I call my home. All for the benefit of the city and population. Along with the sympathy for the Chavez Ravine people we also used pathos for the Dodger fans as well as to convince people to become Dodger fans. We used put up pictures as well as videos in order to convince and entertain people.

            Our credentials in the website are facts that we listed. Magic Johnson is a former Laker player and now the current owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Other credentials would be the scholarships as well as funding’s the dodgers give. We put this in our website making sure we advertise Dodgers ethos. Along with their ethos we added our own credentials. We showed that we are college students adding out college email to our web page. This was for concerns as well as questions comments or anything else they would like to communicate.

            Our message is to convince people who were affected by Chavez ravine to forgive and see the benefits Dodgers did bring. We showed what the stadium has to offer.  Along with that we advocate the benefits of having the stadium. We showed how there is entertainment and how much spirit it bring to the city and people.

            Our methods was to lure people in with advertisement. Showcasing how much fun and how great the stadium is. We showed pictures of people enjoying the game and how much spirit it brings in. we also showed videos of the fans and how much fun and joy they bring and have while at the stadium. From personal experience attending a game I didn’t really watch the game because I was busy with the environment. It was a fun and joyful environment. The atmospheric was filled with people who loved to be around each other and feed off each other’s good vibes.
