My target audience is the world. This topic affects everyone in the world because many children are fighting wars that don’t belong to them.I want my audience to help the children in need. People should also be aware of how millions of children are loosing their dreams and dying. This topic is important because I came from a country where children don’t have many opportunities. Ideally by making this image I’m helping my audience understand this issue because more people will know about this crisis. I feel I succeed in getting my point across because when looking at my image people can see and understand what I’m trying to say and that is that children deserve to dream and not fight someone else’s war.

"Make my own Statement"

The target audience for my psa is mainly everybody.More importantly, everybody who can read,see, and for everybody who thinks all police are saints. The picture highlights evidence of abuse for those who do not believe that police brutality occurs. The target is also mainly for those who have been abused or mistreated by police, they now know that there is someone voicing their opinion.

I want my audience to face the picture. I want them to stop and think about what it means. I want police to see it, and change their ways if they are corrupt. I want them to know that police brutality is wrong. I also want viewers to think that what is happening is just wrong and that somehow it should be stopped.

This topic is important to me because it often affects my people and community. I just would never want it to happen to me. So, I see it as important to express the problem so a solution can be found.

I think I was succesful in getting my point across. I displayed common usage of a police automobile and let viewers see another side of what police may have them think. To protect and to serve is their purpose. However, I planned to illustrate that's not all they do. The url of my picture is www.realpictures.com and www.policephoto.net.

1. Include the URL of where you got your image from. http://photos.wildmadagascar.org

2. Who is your target audience? (Global, Americans, neighborhood community, TBA community, etc.) The target audience is the whole world.

3. What do you want your audience to do (action) or know? I want them to reach out and help people in Africa.

4. Why is this topic important to you? Its import because I am from Africa and some of those people needs help.

5. Do you think you were successful in getting your point across? Why or why not? Yes it does get the point across because I showed it to people in and they got the point.

1.) My target audience was to all of the teens in the neighborhood that we live in. A lot of people are dying in the streets of Boston. About three days ago there were three shootings across the street from my house in one day. I don't even think that the shootings were far apart, they sounded like each of them were seven minutes apart.
2.) I want everyone to take action by trying to spread the word that violence is not the way. Usually the people that die are my age or even younger. I want everyone to worry about doing something constructive with there time. Because you already know I'm worried about "caking it". I also wqant everyone to know that if we work together or wasn't worried about claiming a "set", and worried more about their responsibilities.
3.) This topic is important to me , because personally I don't want to be a victim of a homicide. My life is a little bit too precious for all of this violence. One of my cousins have been shot more than five times, on more than one occasion. I have also lost two of my cousins to gang violence, and I don't want to lose another. I'm also really not trying to have my younger siblings be apart of a homicide neither.
4.) To tell you the truth, I really don't think that I'm going to get my point across because, teens these days are hard-headed. Although, I think that my image would convince some people to think about their actions. In my image, I blended three images together. One police car, one ambulance truck, and a wall full of pins of the vicims of homicide. I did this because my aunt runs this program called the Louis D. Brown Peace Institute. This is what is there, and I wanted to show people that there are already people working on making the world a better place.

Who is your target audience? (global, Americans, neighborhood community, TBA community, etc.)
The target audience of my PSA is the global community. I am targeting the global community because we all need to get involved and solve this issue. I targeted the global community because not only one person can solve this issue but will take the efforts of billions of people.

What do you want your audience to do (action) or know? The first thing I want the global community to do is stop spending $19 Billions on something that is going nowhere. Instead I want the global community to rethink this whole thing over and come up with a better plan that would really work. The next thing I want the global community to know is that poverty is really an issue and that millions of people around the world are being affected by it.

Why is this topic important to you?
This topic is really important to me because where I come from poverty is destroying my country. Where I am from poverty has been the cause of many civil wars and the deaths of many people. I think if we eliminated poverty then there would be no reason for there to be any more fighting going on and millions of people will be saved.

Do you think you were successful in getting your point across? Why or why not? I think I was very scessful in getting my point across because I showed that we are spending alot of money each year into an issue that is going nowhere.

The target audience are the people who lives in the United States and deals with immigration and who ever is against or for immirgation. I think that everybody who understands the deal with immirgation should really pay attenetion to the facts of immigration and how it is effecting our society.

I want my target audience to know that I think that immigrants should get jobs but not the good paying jobs that an actual American citizen should get. I think that kids who can understand things that happen in today's society should know what immigration is about.

This toipc is important to me because immigration is a huge issue in our society. I chose immigration as a topic because I feel that the President, Congressman and many more people who are against immigration are trying to kick out the immigrats. I think that if immigrats are here and they aren't living a positive life then they need to get kicked out.

I think that I was successful in getting my point across. I think that I was successful in getting my pont across because I feel that since immigration is a big issue here in the United States that then maybe people would pay attention, think about how they feel about immigartion, and then they would decide wether or not they are for immigration.

Make My Own Statement

a. My target audience are Americans who don't have free healthcare insurance.

b. I want my audience to know that not all of us are getting free healthcare, and we need to find ways to obtain it, being it protesting, or complaining to our state representatives.

c. This topic is important to me becuase the thought of me getting injured and then having to pay thousands of dollars for the bill upsets me because I believe that as a US citizen, the country should take care of my expensive health costs. I'm not rich, you know.

d. I think I was successful in getting my point across because asking "Free country, free healthcare?" causes people to think "if this is a free country, shouldn't we be getting free healthcare?" and if they don't have free healthcare, then they know it's an issue, and that they need to react. My image is the picture of a health insurance card depicted with the united states with a question mark on top. It also has "US Citizen" as the cardholder's name. I did this because it makes people think that all US citizens should have health care insurance, which is my statement.

Making a Statement

1) My target audience is anyone who has abused or has been abuse. Whether it was in a relationship or by their parents. If you have been abused before it will leave you with emotional and mental scares. The audience also doesn't have to be the victims, it can also be the attacker because if anything, need to wake up and see that putting people down only causes more drama than intended.
2) What we can do to help these people is help them get out of their troubled relationship. Even if they weren't getting abuse physically, you can still be abused mentally by being put down by the other person. And if it's a family member then they need a reality check because beating your child only means you failed to get the point across to your child that they are not supposed to do something wrong when they know they are only going to get caught.
3) This topic is important becasue abusers come in all shapes and sizes. Skin color doesn't matter and neither does age. Just because you see a certain group of people on t.v get abused doesn't mean it is only that certain age or color of people getting abused. No one person is immune to this problem.
4) I think I was able to get my point across because as you can see in the pictures above their are people of all ages and colors that were victimized. Just because you are not the victim it also doesn't make you the better person because that person you are abusing another human being just like you. I also think I got the point across because the slogan at the top is pretty straight forward.

In this image some of the things that I have included are a chart of the number of dropouts by race/ethnicity, an image of a graduating student, and an image demonstrating some of the careers students would want to pursue in. This image I created is to show the effects of students that today more and more students are dropping out of school. With the lack of education one will never be able to pursue in the careers they wish to do. So I created a collage with the statement, “Stay in School” meaning stay in school, get an education and pursue in your career. The purpose of this assignment is to raise consciousness or cause critical conversation about human rights issue.

1. Who is your target audience? (global, Americans, neighborhood community, TBA community, etc.)
2. What do you want your audience to do (action) or know?
   My target audience is to all the students and teenagers of high school and college. The intention of this image is to show that more and more students today in America are dropping out of school. This image is to raise consciousness for the audience about their future. I want the audience to know that with the lack of education one can never be able to pursue in their career and be satisfied with themselves. I believe that one can never have too much education; everyday there’s something new to add on to the history education.
3. Why is this topic important to you?
4. Do you think you were successful in getting your point across? Why or why not?
   This topic is important to me because it tells me that I have to continue to work hard and stay focus. The image that I created with the statement “Stay in School” I believe its statement would be successful in getting my point across because it's clear and understandable. With the image of the graph included it clearly explains my point.
