Looking
at Advertisements
Look
for these
things in the advert you have been given:
1.
Is
it designed to look exciting or
fun? How? Which
words or pictures do this? 2.
Is
it designed to look as if it is cool and
trendy? How? Which
words or pictures do this? 3.
Pick
out all the persuasive words that you
can find. Do they give you facts or
opinions? 4.
Is
the layout of words and text important? What
about letter size and shape and colour? 5.
What
factual information is given? How
much of the writing is about facts? What
does it not tell you? 6.
Is
it meant for you or for another type of
person? How can you tell? 7.
Does
it work? Would you want
to buy it? Why or why not? 8. Can you think of any way to improve the advert? If so, how? |
