In Class Writing #3

1) What images and text are present in the ad?
- There is a man sitting next to a woman holding a sandwich. There is a V on a red background. It seems that they are having a simple conversation. "God work sister, we never figured you could do a man-sized job" is written on the poster. Also, the text basically says that women have stepped up to the plate.
2) What is the purpose? What in the text makes you believe that?
- The purpose is to show that women can do a "man-sized" job. Also it comes across that they can do what men do. Most men didn't think a woman could do their jobs. Also, the purpose is to get other women out on the man's jobs. The texts show that they were surprised that a women could even do a man's job. Also, it shows this man talking to the woman as an equal.
3) Who is the audience?
The audience is to men and to women. It's first off showing that women can do a man's job. Also, when men see this ad they may become encouraged to start to work in the force since other women have "met the test."
4) Who do you think the creator is?
The government seems to be the creator of this poster/ad. It's showing that women are equal and can step up and do a man's job.
5) Rhetorical appeals-
Ethos- It's ethical to help your country out when it is needed.
Logos- If your country needs help it is logical to help out anyway you can.
Pathos- It is appealing to woman through emotion saying that you can help out your country.
