Need help with a homework assignment!

[AshleyFace]

I have to write an essay for a class I'm taking that analyzing the effectiveness of a print ad.
Being the indecisive girl that I am, I can't pick what ad to do it on.

I've narrowed it down to these three, if anyone could help me pick which one to do the assignment on I would very much appreciate it.








Thank you!

eeny, meeny, mineee, mo . . .

or write down on paper and pick one out of a hat.

or put the images on a wall and throw a dart maybe.

Sorry Ashley for being flip, but really - it's your brain that has to author the essay and we don't really know what material is in there that would indicate which image we should pick for you. Maybe the above advice might be best.

As Bruce said, you should pick one yourself, what if we pick one and it turns out it's the one that you have the least to write about. Personally, I think I would have the most to write about the first one, or the last one.

[NathanFranke]

Personally, I don't get the first two. Whatever message they're trying to convey goes straight over my head. I'd write about the third one.

[BigFuzzy]

I'd write about the one that got YOUR attention most. The one that spoke to YOU the most.

Which one do you think you could talk about (to a friend) more and pick that one. The reasons I'd like one of the others might not relate or resonate with you at all.

Having said that, I'd pick the 1st or 3rd one. Actually, the last one. I'm assuming you have to show the images? Well the first one has words on it already which is showing how they verbally (not visually) got their image across to you which, to me, dilutes the effect. If an artist has to consistently tell me what they were trying to achieve else I won't "get it" hurts my views on the work.. but hey, that's just me.

Whilst I agree that you need to choose, I would suggest that the second two were stronger.

Being someone taking a class myself and having similar assignments I would agree with most of the above posts, which one caught your eye most? If you were the one who had to write/design the ad which is more you?

Personally I like the bottom one myself but that is just my opinion. I don't quite get the top one at all and the middle one, in my opinion, ads "Sex Appeal" to an ad for an ad for a child's toy. Sex and children just shouldn't go together. Again, this is just my opinion and I am not a pro by any means.

[Biomech]

1 or 3 imo

[mosgood]

I agree with Big Fuzzy. Pick the picture that speaks the most to you to write about. It's your assignment & your grade riding on your choice.

Best of luck!

+1

I like the 3rd, but that's just because I have a toddler son who is crazy about his cars, so it resonates with me.
