Advertisement (you need to answer this for two students differently)

Pick an Advertisement from a magazine or other print media or online. Photo or scan and upload as a jpg or png to the assignment then post your analysis.

How are they visually (meaning art elements and principles) trying to persuade you to buy their product? Talk about the art elements and principles of design in how are they using them to attract your attention and get you to buy. For example, high contrast attracts the eye, so they can use it for what they want you to look at first and quickly.

What elements and principles are they using to enhance the persuasion?

There will be several.

Note:DO NOT give a narrative on what the ad is about. (narrative would be like there is a bottle on a table that is dripping wet and a person who looks thirsty…) We will see that from the image.Analyze the ad for how it is put together in terms of the elements and principles of design. For a reminder on giving a strong analysis based on the ELEMENTS AND PRINCIPLES OF DESIGN. Review the Material from Chapter 2 if necessary.
