Analysis of Two Advertisements Concerning the Island of Majorca Both advertisements seek to persuade holidaymakers to visit the island. However they are aimed at different age groups. The club 18-30 advertisement is clearly aimed at young adults. It features a cool; wavy hallucinogenic heading suggesting the theme of drunkenness. It is also written in lowercase: “majorca” The Club 18-30 advertisement has simple sub-headings aimed at readers with not much time on their hands, young people with busy schedules. The sub-headings also are presented in the hallucinogenic style of font to guide readers though the text. Young people are often attracted to logos, which is why the Club 18-30 company have added their very own logo to the advertisement. They also show a graphic of 3 young people having a great time, suggesting that this would happen if people came to the holiday island. The suggestion is they would meet attractive people and party all night – in a way their picture nearly acts almost like a subliminal message to readers. The text in Club 18-30 advertisement is written in a chatty informal style designed to appeal to a young audience with the odd slang word here and there; “..Tons of bars..”, “..Loads going down..”, “..nuff said..”. The entertainment facilities which are featured are mostly directed at young people; “..water parks, go-karting, casino..” Would attract a younger general audience. This is especially so when Club 18-30 come to describing popular nightclubs such as “..Tonic..” and “..Garage Heaven.”. When the Club 18-30 advertisement comes to describing the location of their apartments they also use informal chatty text such as “nowhere you want to go is more than a short stagger” and keep their descriptions concise but of appeal to a young audience. On the other hand the Forever Young advertisement is clearly aimed at a much older age category. The heading is presented in plain simple text with a capital ‘M’ for Majorca. There are not so many subheadings but there is lots of
realistic. It is also a way to let the audience focus on the shape and
We arrived at 1015 Folsom around 11.45pm. Many people were still lining up to get into the discotheque. I didn't know why people like to go to such a dark and noisy place like that. Anyway, people who were there are mostly dressed up. Some of them looked interesting. My attention went to an old man about 50-60 years old man who were already dressed up and ready to rock his world. I wondered why would the old man go to a nightclub. May be he was lonely or may be he was just looking for fun and excitement. Well, I didn't really know.
In analyzing the advertisement, it is clear that the author ties all these forms of writing together. In doing so, he hopes to gain the biggest audience by appealing to many different life styles. The author uses persuasion as a tactic, which is used to lure potential vacation hunters in to choosing his place of choice. He presents all forms of writing strategies (ethos, pathos, and logos) in the advertisement with the most concentration on logos and pathos. The author feels that the best way to persuade the audience of choice is to state the facts in the text, and then support those facts by appealing to the emotions, which is accomplished in the picture. In some cases, the author only selects one category of writing, which all depends on what he or she is trying to promote.

Camel’s advertisement aims to sell their product to people who currently smoke, but are not currently smoking Camels cigarettes. However, the advertisement also appeals to nonsmokers who are interested in smoking. However, the ad does not appeal to nonsmokers who are uninterested in smoking because there is nothing in Camel’s advertisement that promotes smoking in general, it says that Camels cigarettes are preferred by doctors.

The ad targets white people more than other demographics because both people pictured are white. All education levels are in the target audience because the ad does not ap...
Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Cask of Amontillado” is a frightening and entertaining short story about the severe consequences that result from persistent mockery and an unforgiving heart. Poe’s excellent use of Gothicism within the story sets the perfect tone for a dark and sinister plot of murder to unfold. “The Cask of Amontillado” simply overflows with various themes and other literary elements that result from Poe’s Gothic style of writing. Of these various themes, one that tends to dominant the story as a whole is the theme of revenge, which Poe supports with his sophisticated use of direct and indirect factors, irony, and symbolism.
A Comparison of Two Advertisements Introduction Advertising and media are part of everybody’s everyday life, with or without them realizing. Each day we see adverts on the television showing us new lifestyles that look glamorous, we hear adverts on the radio, we see slogans emblazoned on people’s clothes, on the side of buses, on billboards, everywhere!! Big companies know that they need to make their product appeal to as many ‘niche markets’ as possible and they do this by ‘audience segmentation’. This is when companies make an advert so that it would appeal to one type of person, and then another advert for the same product but for a different type of person. Although it is hard to know exactly when there target audience will be watching, companies will spend lots of money researching.

Crisco had some early ads from the beginning of the 20th century meant to convince the housewives of the time to use its new man-made cooking product. One such ad featured a picture of a woman looking at a Crisco ad making this very decision; this ad contained the usual pitch to sell the product, and it was directed at the middle class housewife, who in early 1900’s American culture, would be the only audience interested in buying the product. A different ad showed a picture of a Crisco factory and had the text “Pure food from a clean factory”, this was a response to the well-grounded fear of the time that factories were filthy.

Intro: According to Yeshin’s definition of advertising, it is a paid-for message from an “identified organisation” which gives information about a product or service in order to influence consumers (Yeshin, 18). In today’s society, we live in a place where advertising surrounds us physically and digitally. The discourse of advertising is one worthy of discussion as it brings forth both concerns of stereotypical portrayals, manipulative and persuasive messages, obsession with materialism, lack of information, and use of sex appeal (Yeshin, 18).
