Morphed images of humans and animals charm and stir emotion
Implications - Animals have often been used in activist campaigns to stir emotion, but now brands and photographers in all industries are taking it one step further by humanizing animals in advertisements and art. Giving an animal human-like features, or vice versa, draws out emotive responses more so than simply placing an animal in a photograph. The viewer feels a more intense connection, and thus deeper engagement with the ad or artwork.
