    1. Looking at commercial advertising of boy and girl’s toys; girl’s commercials played soft musical tune, while boy’s toy commercials had more of a rock and roll musical tune. Furthermore, the media enforced general roles to the viewers by only including males in boy’s toy commercials and females in girl’s toy commercials. The settings for boy’s toy commercials were usually outside and consisted of darker colors. In addition, they included toy weapons and/or action figures (males with large muscles) that provoked thoughts of violence.…

    The character Frankenstein happens to be very well-known in today’s media. Mary Shelley’s novel and story itself seems to be overlooked when it comes to who the monster is. When most think of Frankenstein, it’s a green giant who resembles the look of a zombie. Most probably wouldn’t know that they’re wrong in several ways. Comparing the book to modern world, Frankenstein has given us the look of a green monster, new research on animated life, and life lessons.…

    The author Ally Fogg admits that Sainsbury’s Christmas ad is breathtaking, emotional and well made, but on the other hand the ad left him feeling uncomfortable and with disgust. Many brave people were killed in the first world war. Everyone imagines war as one of the worst images of human cruelty but Sainsbury’s changed this image just to sell its products. People cannot find blood, strong language and any other horrific images there. Fogg thinks that this whole theme of the war is not appropriate at all for this kind of advert, but what is most shocking is that war is shown as something beautiful.…

    Sometimes the people in the writing center don’t really know what they talk about because one time I needed help with the ad analysis. I had a paragraph of credible sources that had reactions that the tutor had me cut out (like a Saturday Live Night skit, multiple magazine articles, and etc.) Like the tutor said that she never watched the Saturday Live Night Skit about the Kendall Jenner ad and claimed it wasn’t relevant to my analysis but it was in a paragraph about the reactions that she to cut out. Then I sent it to my friend to another set of eyes to look at it. And my friend told me that I needed a paragraph of the outraged reactions from the commercial and that I needed to analyze some more things that I noticed from the commercial.…

    Shelley’s use of dark, negative sounding adjectives to describe the Creature drastically contrasts the way Ishiguro describes the clones—different and soulless.

In Frankenstein, the real monster is not the creation but the creator. Throughout the novel Frankenstein ignores the emotions and inexperience of his creation. While he might believe his creation is wretched, as the Creature’s creator he has a responsibility that he ignores and avoids.…
