3 What is the meaning of this ad? T he ads main idea is to express violence and abuse faced by women. This organization, Amnesty International, is trying to portray abuse within a household, as demonstrated by the text. The ad may also be inferring that a child is under a household where abuse is a common occurrence. Amnesty international is trying to make people aware of this and also to persuade them to participate in their movement against abuse.

4 Who is the intended audience? T he intended audience is for everyone. The ad is trying to make everyone aware what abuse does and how they can help. The audience may also be anyone that has experienced abuse or have seen abuse.

5 What is the first thing you noticed and what is your attention drawn to? T he first thing that I noticed in the picture is the scratches on the girls face. The color contrast in the skin and the darkness of the scratches draws my attention to her face. The red cape is also something that catches my attention. It is the only color in the picture that isn’t neutral.

6 Does taking out the words change the meaning? T aking away the words definitely change the meaning of the picture. Without the words the audience is unaware that is ad is about abuse. The audience would think the picture is just relating to The Little Red Ridding Hood. The story of the picture, a mother being abused, would completely be taken away.

7 Logos What is the logical appeal? T he logic in this picture is that abuse is a common thing. Abuse is something that can happen in any household. Also, many kids have been abused or seen abuse.

8 Ethos What is the ethical appeal? T his ad was made by Amnesty International which is a credible source. There are thousands of people that are part of this organization that fight against abuse and for human rights.

9 Pathos What is the emotional appeal? T he emotional appeal in this ad is the sympathy for the mother and the child the ad is pertaining to. It can also be anger felt against the father that did this to the mother.
