Visual Advertisement

above is the visual advertisement i chose for the assignment. It is an absolut alcohol ad that portrays times square in new york as being filled with art, unlike its usual state of being overrun by advertisements and billboards. Times square is also one of the busiest and most congested areas of new york and the advertisement shows it as being farely sparse, with barely any cars and only a handful of people. the advertisement reads "In an Absolut world." trying to convey that life is like that, less stressful, more beautiful, more, less congested and more easy going when you, the viewer of the advertisement drinks absolut vodka. When i see the advertisement i am first directed to the center of it and identify where the place is. I realize its time square and next i am directed to read the words "in an absolut world" and see the image of the vodka bottle. After that i am directed to look at the details of this ad and realize why the picture portrays an absolut world. I am sort of encouraged to read more of why absolut vodka makes the world more artsy, but at the same time i feel as though the asvertisement speaks for itself and needs no further explanation. But if there were and explanation to the advertisement i would be encouraged to read it. (

There was no link or further information with this advertisement...)

outline

so my topic for our upcoming and final essay revolves around the issue of college students drinking and driving in the town of wilmington. I am going to propose a solution to this idea and my solution is going to be that UNCW start running a shuttle service with the wave during weekend nights to help prevent teen drinking and driving. My research will include actual student polls, statistics, same problem and solution of another school (proving that it is effective), and research on why we dont already have this or if it has been suggested before. my outline goes something like this:
I. University Students Drinking & Driving in Wilmington, NC
      A. Intro
            1.introduce problem
            2.introduce solution
            3. state 3+ supporting facts that would help my solution
                 a. other schools have it & it works
                 b. poll of students to see if they would use it, testing its actual estimated impact
                 c. ?? tbd
      B.  Other schools have it & it works
