    Sue Jozui in her passage, about how advertisements use celebrities that are famous and known worldwide to talk about how the items they are representing are so well even though they might not even use it. The author supports her argument by first stating that the audience is supposed to take the celebrities word for how the product functions. But if you think of it they might just be doing it for the money and extra fame they'll get. she continues by stating that people should trust store brand items as much as they trust the big name products. The authors purpose is to tell consumers of products not to trash items because celebrities are not endorsing the product so that consumers would understand.The author Sue Jozui an annoyed tone for the…

    Throughout the entire commercial Ford shows all these different scenarios where children, parents, and even cats are in situations they cannot get out of. By choosing those certain people and animals, it appealed to America’s emotions. As well as to those single parents locked out of their house or the little boy who wrecked his tricycle calling for his moms help. They use children and pets to their advantage, due to the fact that people will always find pets and children adorable and cute. Especially with humor added to it, as well as sympathy because it may seem painful and stressful.…

    A dog can bring many upsides to a human's life. How could you not be happy seeing a cute, furry, and loving creature wagging his tail for excitement every time he sees you? “Pets can serve as important sources of social and emotional support for “everyday people,” not just individuals facing significant health challenges, according to research published by the American Psychological Association” (Dr. McConnell, American Psychological Association). In the creation of this commercial, “A Boy and His Dog Duck. IAMS. Good for Life”, it is very clear that pure joy and excitement fills the boy's life thanks to his dog Duck. Therefore, in order to persuade the audience, proper use of Ethos, Pathos, and Logos is necessary and this ad perfectly portrays…

    I would say that this ad uses some rhetorical appeals effectively, but lacks some as well. For example, it uses very strong pathos. Having the child looking into an empty fridge that looks very run down and not well kept. There is not a single food item in it. Also, the setting of the picture looks like it is not a well-kept area. The walls are very dirty and water stained, there is trash laying in front a dirty barrel, etc. The little boy in this picture also looks very malnourished. He has no shoes on, and little clothing, just a tank top and some shorts. I believe the author of this article chose this picture on purpose because it is going to emotionally effect mothers, those who love children, those with families, etc. This is ad will force…

    Or is it making you sad? Once you know the answer for questions like this, you will know whether the ad is affecting you positively or negatively. Rhetorical analysis also important because it can help you make good decisions, because it gives you the ability to analyze and understand the exigence of a writing or an ad. It gives you the ability to know whether you are targeted as an audience or not, and to know what constraints the rhetor is facing and how it could affect you as a reader. Now that I have looked back onto a pervious writing experience and analyzed it rhetorically, I cannot help but analyze everything I see from ads and TV shows to articles and newspaper headlines.…

    Advertising is everywhere. It’s on television, the internet, radio, magazines, posters, billboards… every place we go. Everything is advertising. Advertising has shot up and dominated the market, becoming one of the most successful and ever-growing industries in the broad career field spectrum. I find that one of the most interesting aspects of advertising is that you can advertise anything. Anything. The possibilities are limitless. The PeTA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) ad that I selected to analyze proves that advertisements can open a new perspective to consumers, and aren’t just for selling a product or service, but a lifestyle.…

    A pregnant mother walks into frame and is placing sharp pins into an infant’s changing pad, as the scene changes she sharpens knives to hang from the infants mobile. The scene changes a few more times showing the mothers actions such as pouring poison into a baby bottle, inserting a child’s fork into an electrical socket, and laying a snake in the infant’s stroller. The scene changes one more time, the mother is sitting on a couch caringly stroking her stomach as she brings a cigarette to her mouth and then sits an ash tray on top of her stomach. This advertisement leaves viewers with the phrase “A mother can be her baby’s worst enemy” and the words of the Cancer Society of Finland explaining that ten thousand babies are at risk because of smoking during pregnancy as well to encourage mothers to quit smoking. This advertisement is trying to convey the dangers of smoking with showing “equivalences” of the same dangers of other hazards. Using a rhetorical analysis of this advertisement will create a further understanding of the argument that is being presented, the application of the canons of rhetoric, and its appeals regarding ethos, pathos, logos, and kairos.…

    In comparison, the second advert annualised, is a healthy eating organisation. This PETA.org.UK advert is being used in order to persuade adults (someone other than a “child”) not to feed children meat as it “is child abuse”. Moreover this advert is being used to advertise the organisation supporting this claim and inform the audience of their web address. The objective to Peta.org.uk is to deter children from eating meat and communicate the idea that meat has a consequence on a child’s health and adult should not feed them it as they are causing them harm.…

    I am a representative for PETA, or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. We are the largest animal rights organization in the world, with more than 3 million members and supporters (www.petafoundation.org). Ingrid E. Newkirk founded PETA in 1980, and we are dedicated to defending the rights of all animals. Since 1980, we have campaigned to establish a global society in which humans consider the needs of other living nations, in this case animals. We believe that people everywhere should try and stop animal abuse whenever and wherever they can.…

    As I was planning what to do for my Extended Essay I came to think, are PETA’s ways of persuasion too much or are they adequate? This made me realize that PETA relies a lot on people believing in the same as them, and my first realization was when I saw this slogan “Animals are not ours to eat, wear, experiment on, use for entertainment, or abuse in any way.”…

    I’d like to begin by quoting Captain Paul Watson, “If you want to know where you would have stood on slavery before the Civil War, don't look at where you stand on slavery today. Look at where you stand on animal rights.” Throughout my presentation I ask that you keep these questions in mind: Is slavery no longer slavery when its not happening to humans? Is abuse not abuse if it isn't happening to your species? And, is murder not considered murder when its not happening to someone like you? If I ask all of you if you love animals, most of you would say yes. Yet its because of people like you that animals like pigs, cows, and chickens suffer and take knives to the neck every second of every minute of every day. Humans have victimized animals so much, that they aren't even considered victims anymore. We have turned living, feeling, breathing beings into inanimate objects such as shoes, and sandwiches. Every year on this planet 60 billion land and 90 billion marine animals are slaughtered without a second thought to feed the greed of humans. In the United States alone, there are more than 5,000 trucks carrying animals to slaughter houses where they will be hung upside down, and while fully conscience, have a bullet put between their eyes or have a knife slash their neck, all in order to feed a group of ungrateful humans who don't even need it for survival. Out of all the abused animals on this planet 98% of them are victims of the meat, egg, and dairy companies. If you consume animals, and the things that come out of animals, you are intentionally causing pain, and suffering. I find it unbelievable how a species that claims to know the difference from right…

    The campaign advertisement is not selling a specific item, but is rather trying to encourage people to help out and donate to RSPCA. It is also made to create awareness of the foundation (RSPCA) and of the cruelty and harm that can happen to animals. The campaign uses shock tactic that is a very successful and clever way to advertise. This way of advertising makes people feel so disturbed when they watch it, that they feel like they have to do something. These tactics are not successful with all people, but very successful on other people, depending on their personality type.…

    The central part of the visual advert is that of the two faces of the child at the back of the car and the child about to be hit mixed in together, this it brings about an emotional reaction to any audience, regardless of age, gender.
