11/18/11- Elelments of an effective lay out

The tool that is used in this article is informative, yet questionable in regards to a good ad. I think that all of the elements are equally important but I feel that a couple of them like balance and proportion are the same thing, just like unity, everyone knows a paper of any kind needs to flow and be easy to understand. All of the elements apply to my ad it is very well balanced and informative, and yet has that sense of seriousness, and urgency.

11/16/11- Democracy of Goods

The tool that is used is even if you are on the lower end of the financial stability bar, you still deserve the finer things in life. It is used today because different companies are competing to make all product available to ever household. It applies to my add because everyone is worried about what they look like but no matter what the outside looks like we all the same things inside and we each deserve to be liked or loved for who we are not what we look like.

11/14/11- Advertising

The ad I am referring to here is the advertisement for the SkinID product. Its effective because it promise to give acne free, better pores, and softer skin. It does use a little humor with the host since she is a younger woman. It uses real people and real, serious situations. It is show cased well, showing you what u could have, and if definitely makes you want to order it, since there"s not a single person that is truly happy about their appearance.

On the other hand an ineffective ad, its not proven to work, it leaves me being a skeptic, although it would be nice to have that much energy at once, maybe then I can keep up with my kids.

10/19/11- Style

After reading that section of the book, I realized that all of them are important to some extent. But I have to be honest, I rarely use all of those every time I write. Write with nouns and verbs was a new own for me I wouldn't of guessed it but it makes since now. No breezy manner, was a bit confusing to me. Although I know I shouldn't include my opinion, I have a really hard time because I am always telling people whats on my mind. Standard to offbeat confused me a bit also.

10/14/11- Effective Argument

Martin Luther King is addressing everyone, in regards to racial conflicts, that still plague communities around the world. The tone of his letter is very informative, wise and calm. To some extent I think that the whole letter is effective, especially the way in which he combines the perfect amount of ethos, pathos and logos. Although there is a few places where maybe politically correct, question his intentions, whether ethical, political, social or personal. Logical fallacies are used throughout this letter such as the logos on pg 155 in the first paragraph and in the second paragraph on pg 163. Ethos are used on pg 155 2nd and third paragraphs and again on pg168 first full paragraph. Pathos are used on pg156 in the third paragraph and again on pg 165 the first paragraph. The counter argument is on pg 159 in the second paragraph. He uses all of the logical fallacies by intertwining them to make the letter informal yet personal. I can utilize this in my paper by being careful, with where I put them which will incline a better letter or argument.
