AssIgnment #7
As we get close to our midterm I can honestly say that I learned how to write a literacy narative for the first time and I also can say I have so much more to learn about writing.I learn to take my peers comments and put it toward making my paper better. I also learn how to edit someone else paper and leave comments on how they can improve their paper.Looking back at my very first post I do think I'm making a progress but a slow one.I do find this class helpful because It has me always thinking and helping me analyzing things.If I could change anything I would like to be able to pick a topic that's about something happening in today's society or pick my own topic.I wouldn't say my writing changed in a major way but I did improve my grammar mistake. I am able to catch some of mine and can easy catch someone else's mistake. I still have a couple of weeks left to go so I still have time to improve my writing skills and plan to. Their no sence in hiding when I am going to always have to write paper while in college.

The ad I picked is target to young people that's are old enough to get in clubs and buy drinks. The purpose is to make it seem like drinking is cool and less complicated than a having a girlfriend and the tone is fun, excited and free. This ad is different than their other Jim beam ad but also similar in like a fun way. Most of these ad have young people having fun or at a party.
However; the purpose of my literacy narrative is to get across to people that I always had a major problem in writing and though I can go on without it. My audience is my classroom peers and professor. I think the tone in my essay was sad and hatred but at the end my tone was excited.

Analyzing an Advertisement

- Purpose: By using young men, Jim beam and bold letters this ad is basely saying that alcohol is more easy to cope with than a girlfriend.
- Audience: I'm going to say the target audience our 21+ males. Basely males that's old enough to drink and go to clubs. The young men appear to be at a club holding shots or cups of alcohol makes it very clear that they have to be 21 or older.
- Genre: Most of Jim Bean ads look fun, exciting, and making it seem cool to be drinking Jim bean. This ad unlike the rest have a picture of people partying and drinking. Most of the other have surfers, wordy, a great deal of young woman in short shorts on the beach and etc. These ads make it seem like drinking is cool and leave you with no worries. Yes this is what I would expect for this ad, drinking may not be cool in some eyes but they do have to sell it.
- Tone: Fun filled, exited and encouraging/pressuring.
