Steffan Adler L.O. Alcohol Assignment Task 1 1. Alcohol is portrayed in both adverts as the enemy but both in different ways, in the first advert with the girl, alcohol makes the girl look like a completely worthless being and turns her into a mess. In the advert with the boy, alcohol is portrayed as the boys more aggressive side as he looks as if he has come out of a fight with a black eye and a ripped jacket and shirt. 2. I think that the impact that these advert have on the viewer are a major as teens have always believed that alcohol is a great thing and that there is nothing wrong about it but these adverts show that alcohol does have a negative side hidden behind what everyone thinks of it and that most of the time more bad comes out of drinking than good. 3. Yes, I do believe these adverts are effective for just as every under aged drinker starts off his/her night in a positive way the …show more content…

Yes, there is a major difference between how alcohol approaches boys and girls. When boys drink alcohol, it makes them more aggressive and boosts their ego making them think that they can do whatever they want which mostly ends up with them getting beaten up or injured from doing something stupid that their friends talked them into doing. It effects girls a way which makes them vulnerable to others and makes them let others take advantage of them. It also makes girls do things that could ruin their reputation for the rest of their lives. 5. Research has shown that teenage drinking is becoming more and more popular throughout the world and not only in Britain so I do believe that these adverts are relevant to all teenagers and not only British teenager. Personally these adverts do not reflect my alcohol experience for I am not a drinker and I already know they cons of alcohol due to a family members past. These adverts are relevant to all teenagers for even if it just has a minor chance are stopping someone from drinking, it would at least help some people’s lives. Task

    691 Words  | 2 Pages

    Advertisements are a way to get people to see their product or hear what they have to say about it or just what they have to say in general. This commercial was made by Budweiser. Budweiser is a company that makes and sells beer to adults. Their commercial shows that just because they sell alcohol does not mean they are okay with drunk driving. The commercial uses both pathos and ethos to show us what they want us to take away from it. They use this commercial that plays with our emotions to show us a piece of how we would feel if we lost someone, and its goal is to make us want to make sure no one that cares for us will ever feel that way. It was shown at a time that makes it most effective, during the super bowl while people are drinking

  • Belvedere Ad Analysis

    757 Words  | 2 Pages

    This advertisement gives off negative feedback on how the liquor makes the men act. This advertisement tells you Belvedere is easier to get down unlike sexual assault victims; they will put up a fight. It makes men that drink this liquor seem lifeless and disgusting, the way the advertisement shows what happens when this liquor is drunk. I highly doubt that this advertisement would make companies want to buy this product for their own stores or bars. They would not want any issues with women being sexually assaulted, or them being accused for it. I feel as it this advertisement was still out, people would blame this liquor for many sexual assaults that may have happened to women over the many

    As I saw these people, my peers, the truth finally hit me, alcohol isn’t for teenagers, no matter what the commercials say. Not only does alcohol make you look ridiculous, it’s illegal for people my age to be drinking. In a survey conducted by the Associated Press in 1998, almost half of the American teenagers were drinkers. This same substance I had been told to refuse my entire childhood was being consumed by nearly half of my peers. According to that same survey, nearly 9 out of 10 teenagers between the ages of 16 and 19 years of age had their first alcoholic beverage after their 11th birthday. At this point, was I suppose to become a statistic or be that one out of ten people who doesn’t use alcohol?

    There is no roundabout message from that ad, it just shows you the product of drunk driving and how it can ruin someone’s life. In that sense, I believe that the ad with the woman has a much stronger use of pathos and makes it the superior ad, although the other ad is great on its own as well. But the use of pathos in a sensitive topic such as drunk driving, where many people and their families are affected by it daily, make it a much stronger ad. Overall, the use of pathos for a topic such as this made the ad with Jacqueline Saurdino that much
