“Make your marketing so useful people would pay for it”(Baer). Marketers use wild variations of strategies to appeal to their consumers, which materializes ridicule among marketing companies. Commercialized businesses accommodate useful tactics to appeal to their audience. In a mock press conference, MagnaSoles, “magical” shoe inserts, are analyzed humorously.

“The Dark Knight,” a movie directed and produced by Christopher Nolan, depicts the way a system of justice deals with terrorism. If an archetype is defined as a symbol that exists instinctively in the collective consciousness of the human race, the terrorism in Batman The Dark Knight represents an archetype through the violence, murder of the innocent, mayhem and mass destruction. Governments often lay down laws and procedures for a country to function, and to avoid anarchy. The laws promote wellness, equality, and justice, but sometimes even these entities of justice are forced to break the law for a greater good. In contemporary U.S. history, President Barack Obama, the head of one of the most powerful

In Waiting For Superman, director Davis Guggenheim wants the American people to become aware of the education crisis taking place in the country so they can realize that drastic change is needed. The Music and visuals play a fundamental role in presenting the severity of the problem with education in America. Thirty minutes into the video, a cartoon is shown to portray how contrasting views and regulations do not truly allow an educator to do their job. The cartoon design is innocent and there is calm, soothing music in the background. The music and cartoon visual choice are meant to mimic how Americans handicap themselves with unnecessary rules, when in reality, it should be as smooth as the short cartoon. In addition, later in the video,

Week three’s devotional really touched me. Many people think they can do everything on their own, that they do not need God in their life. I feel that we all need God to help us get through the challenges in our lives, so we can grow and learn from those challenges. John 14:26 says, “But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you” (NASB). John 14:26 supports my feelings when it comes to needing God, as He will teach us.

Secondary sources describe, discuss, interpret, comment upon, analyze, evaluate, summarize, and process primary source, while primary source provides direct or firsthand evidence about an event, object, person, or work of art. The organization my portfolio is based on, is extremely big with five different segments. However, since my main focus will be in the parks and resorts, I will obtain both primary and secondary resources to complete my research. I will obtain autobiographies of Walt Disney to provide a brief history on the first development of resorts and parks. Any interviews, and research data that was already obtain by research.

In this cartoon, the artist captures what standardized testing does for students which, according to the cartoon, is absolutely nothing. The cartoonist uses labeling to indicate the he is referring to the expression “ Square peg, Round hole.” This is posted on a sign behind the student so that the audience is drawn to it after looking at the student. This allows the audience to understand the cartoon. Otherwise, the audience might not know that the student is being compared to a round hole. The analogy here is comparing students and standardized testing to a square peg and a round hole. This allows the audience to understand that standardized testing does not work. The exaggeration here is that standardized testing could

Rhetorical Superheroes may be all around the world, but if you take a deeper look at all of them, some might stand out as a little more “super” to you. When I think about Rhetorical Superheroes, there is one off the top of my head that is important to me. His name is Jason Ren and he is currently a student at Harvard University. He was someone who made an impact in the community I group up in through powerful language expressed by his actions volunteering and helping others. I was fortunate enough to know Jason personally as he was a good friend of mine who I played soccer with for many years. We would hang out a lot and have shared many good memories with each other.

For the primary audience- which may include the person struggling with obesity, the fitness trainer that works to help the client stay healthy and in shape, and the dietitian who regulates and monitors the patient’s food intake- a booklet would suffice. The booklet should be engaging for all groups no matter their educational level. It should go into depth, so that the dietitian can accurately access the problem’s that the patient might be facing. It should also be something that the person who may have obesity can comprehend because they might need something extra to push them towards the right direction of a healthy lifestyle. The booklet might include some diet and exercise tips that the patient can use in order to be healthy, if they don’t have access to a dietitian or trainer.
