Reaction Gifs:<\/p>\n

Reaction gifs are the most common form of gifs because they are able to be used easily to convey a message. The gif I have chosen above is most often used to show displeasure or just disappoint in someone’s actions in a comical way. It successfully brings out these emotions, while the second gif of Terrell Suggs on the Ravens shares no emotion or reaction. This second gif is a counter example of the reaction gif because it shows no reaction while the first gif clearly conveys an emotional message.<\/p>\n

Sports Gifs:<\/p>\n

Sports gifs are fairly self-explanatory because they simply feature sports clips to create a response from the viewer. Whether it’s an exceptional play, like the gif above, or an athlete making a mistake, sports gifs are able to get a reaction. Sports gifs are generally used to highlight the greatest plays made by athletes in their sports but occasionally they are used to show bad plays and the subsequent disappoint by the player’s teammates, adding to its humor. The gif I used for my counter example is a clip from The Intern showing a group of people playing Quidditch. It’s simply showing non-professional athletes playing a game that is not really considered a sport at this point which counters the professionalism in most sports gifs.<\/p>\n

Fandom Gifs:<\/p>\n

Fandom gifs are quick clips of movies that show an iconic moment or a memorable quote. These are extremely popular for people to use to show their favorite movies and to use those moments for a satirical purpose in life. Since fandom gifs only use a quick clip like the one from Goodfellas above, I used a gif where every Star Wars movie ever made are embedded into one gif as my counter example. I used this as my counter example because it does not focus on one particular part, but puts every movie together in a jumbled mess.<\/p>\n\n
