Persuasion

     Persuasion is when people tries to convince some people to do something. Companies like to persuade too, they want people to buy their products. Theirs many ways companies can persuade people for example advertisements. In class we played a game about different ways commercials can persuade people: humour, macho, friends, family, fun, nature, sexy, cartoon, celebrity and wealth. Our teacher  gave us an envelope, it contains topics about "Persuasion" we need to find commercials that can fit the topic that we picked and we're going to show our partners the commercial and our partners will try to guess what topic it is.

Techniques:

Humor: commercials that can make people laugh.
Macho: showing muscles, usually guys.
Friends: Group of people doing things together for example: playing board games.
Family: showing a family having fun.
Nature: outdoor, commercials that shows a lot of trees, grass and many more.
Sexy: showing bodies, usually girls.
Cartoon: animation of people or anything.
Celebrity: Famous people.
Wealth: expensive jewelries, big houses, fancy places.
