The Love baby’s soft Comestics was first released in 1974. This ad is a young girl who could be around 8 or 9 years old holding a white teddy bear while pouting. While on the lower right, they show these four phallic-shaped bottles which it’s their products along with a small description about Love’s Baby Soft. This ad was used to promote their Love’s Baby Soft fragrance. Their target audience was towards women, especially older women.

This Hoover magazine advertisement was released in 1953. It pictures a middle to upper-class woman, possibly in her late twenties or thirties, laying on the floor with her new red Hoover vacuum she received for Christmas. She wears a festive green dress and smiles while reading her letter. In the 1910s, ads began to present women as stereotypical housewives. The cooks, mothers, and keepers of the home.

Annotated Bibliography
Create one sentence that summarizes how this reading supports your paper
You can use text from your Reading Responses
Writing an annotated bibliography is excellent preparation for a research project. Just collecting sources for a bibliography is useful, but when you have to write annotations for each source, you’re forced to read each source more carefully. You begin to read more critically instead of just collecting information.
-
- Use Google Docs to write and organize your sources and annotations.
- Use the MLA style to format your Annotated Bibliography.
- Cite all materials researched for historical context, any related writings, and image sources.
- Review this guide to understand what and why of Annotated Bibliographies.
- Refer to this guide with samples when formating your annotated bibliography
- City Tech Library also has an Annotated Bibliography Tutorial
- Another guide: https://www.bibme.org/citation-guide/citing-sources/what-is-an-annotated-bibliography/
Your Presentation Format
Your Research Project will culminate in a 10-15 slideshow with your voiceover narration. The presentations should be no more than 10 minutes long. You may use any method you prefer to construct your slideshow (Powerpoint, Google Slides, Adobe Presenter, Preview slideshow, Presi, etc.) and any method for recording your voiceover and saving your video file (Zoom Recording, Screencast-o-matic, Yuja, etc).

Additional information
Businesses are successful who execute their advertisement efficiently in today’s competitions and thinking. Many advertisers implement a well-developed rhetorical advertisement/commercial to stick out from the competition.
An example of a slogan everyone is familiar with is “I’m Loving It” from McDonalds. The “Pop Chip” advertisement above has all three ethos, Pathos, and Logos. But the interesting fact here I am going to explore how creatively they persuade the actual message.
