For anyone observing The Louisiana Comic Con ad, they might become filled with confusion as to what is this event all about? Is there a revival in town, a Walking Dead convention, a Star Wars fan club meeting, or have all these actors gathered for a true Comic Con fair? Comic Con is a science fiction fantasy come true, cult following party. No matter your age or gender there seems to be something for everyone to experience. Deadheads, Trekies, Go Go Power Rangers, Cowabunga dude, which are you a fan of? Who can forget Honky Tonk Man, a wrestler dressed like Elvis? Comic con is a mixture of old timers and new timers, per say. The ad is trying to draw in a new type of person by bringing in newcomers from the latest hot shows and their names and pictures are the largest on the ad. How many viewers look at this ad and wonder who are all the people and question if they are truly famous or not? Comic Con brings together the real with the fiction and makes it all come to life. Although it is certainly fair to develop reasons for opting out of attending Comic Con, there are numerous reasons for opting in to attending. The advertisement shows numerous characters from different series in an effort to appeal to multiple audiences, but regardless of your interests, there is more to Comic Con than what meets the eye, and nobody is a nerd for having their own hero. What about those who need more than just a famous character in the ad to make them decide?

...re than just comics, as is indicated by the movie or television based characters in the horizon of the ad. If comic books do not interest you, then there is plenty of other forms of enjoyment that you will encounter at a Comic Con. In regards to the type of people that you will encounter, there is really no way to gauge how well you would fit in, but it is best to go with an open mind. Even if there were no celebrities at the event, there are multiple chances to learn and expose yourself to somebody that you would normally not communicate with. This type of interacting opens doors for new interests and possible long lasting friendships. The Louisiana Comic Con advertisement clearly insists that you attend the event, but the illustration in conjunction with a bit of background knowledge about the event should be enough to remove any concerns you had about attending.
The first article, “The Best Night $500,000 Can Buy,” portrays the perfect night out in Las Vegas. Devin chronologically takes the reader through a night in one of the famous clubs in Las Vegas, Marquee. He describes the fundamental marketing techniques that promoters use to lure women into the venue, the prices that high-rollers pay to get a VIP access and tables, and the “shitshow” atmosphere where people are dancing as if they are on Ecstasy (some people are actually on drugs). From personal experience, Las Vegas is definitely the Disney World for adults because people can openly consume alcoholic beverages on Fremont Street while enjoying their time at the arcades, night and day clubs, pools, gambling rooms, theme park rides, shopping centers, restaurants, strip clubs, and wedding chapels. Which ultimately le...
This advertisement uses a combination of star power and a simple color scheme to draw viewers in. Most people know who Kim Kardashian is and by showing her having fun, the viewer subconsciously links that to the fun they would have. The black and white shades are all bland when compared to the green color of the bottle, the drink, and Kim's dress. By using the natural color of the drink to show off Kim's dress in the middle of the crowd, tells the viewer that by drinking this liqueur, they will also stand
All advertisers want the same thing. They all want to catch your attention. In order to do that, they use three simple techniques called ethos, logos, and pathos. These are the reasons why you feel and think the way you do when certain advertisements come on. The company that made this ad was Band-Aid. Band-Aid has always been in a family’s first aid kit. The technology of Band-Aids’ bandages has evolved over the years to make them better to care for families. Their Band-Aids come in all characters and types.

What captures the attention of people when they view an advertisement, commercial or poster? Is it the colors, a captivating phrase or the people pictured? While these are some of the elements often employed in advertising, we can look deeper and analyze the types of appeals that are utilized to draw attention to certain advertisements. The persuasive methods used can be classified into three modes. These modes are pathos, logos, and ethos. Pathos makes an appeal to emotions, logos appeals to logic or reason and ethos makes an appeal of character or credibility. Each appeal can give support to the message that is being promoted.
The meaning of a picture results in different opinions from many viewers. These images, such as artwork and advertisement, have become a source of communication in this new age of society. The advertisement I chose was a Coach perfume advertisement, a popular brand marketed towards women. This advertisement has a combination of physical features: lighting, text, and camera angles. These provoke an emotional appeal received by pampering with the perfume and gathering a sensation of love and peace, causing the audience to buy this product. A woman is born a nurturing loving creature. The world can make a woman harsh and intimidating, but when wearing this perfume it brings out the natural essence and reminds women of their true power but also
In the 40s, comic books had a large audience. There would have been at least a dozen people in your class who read comics, claims Chabon. A few years later in the 70s, there would have been less than a dozen but more than one or two people who read comics. Now, it is hard to find more than a few people that you know who actually read comics. If you read comics today, you are considered unique. Children are loosing interest in everything that stimulates the mind in a positive way. Chabon claims that the obvious decline in interest in comic books should make authors want to take initiative and fix the
The advertisement's rich red coloring immediately strikes a viewer with exciting and salacious overtones. The red lettering, border, cigarette package, and swimsuit all emphasize social and physical pleasure. The other colors' absence only strengthens the red coloring's implications.
