In this assignment, you create a Rhetorical Analysis of a single image from an advertisement. Specifically, you will answer several questions and post your answers in the Module Three Discussion Forum. In the same Discussion Forum, you will also respond to another student’s post. It is time now to apply what you are learning about writing and research from our text.

Locate a single image that advertises a product, service, or brand that was published within the last 12 months and that can be found online. To understand what is meant by a single image that advertises a product, service, or brand, review this blog post to learn more. And review this post on BoredPanda as well. Do not choose an ad from these two sources, so look for an ad that does not appear on these two blogs. A single image means one static image, not a video, not a gif, not anything other than an image. Then start reviewing websites, blogs, social media, anywhere online, to find an ad with artful, provocative content that will allow you to answer several questions.

Answer the following questions:

1. Consider the rhetorical situation, in particular the purpose and the audience of the ad you are analyzing. What is outstanding (good, bad, outrageous, noteworthy, unusual) about the ad? Paste the link to the image at the beginning of your paragraph. You can first save the image and then upload it to Imgur so that you have a permanent link to the image.
Write one paragraph.

2. Who would be the typical viewer or customer for this ad, and does the viewer need any special knowledge, vocabulary, or background to understand the ad?
