Above The InfluenceDrug/Alcohol awareness and prevention. Slide Show By: Michaela Massey

The Purpose The purpose of this picture is to

bring awareness to drug and alcohol abuse in young adults.

It’s an Above The Influence picture, which is an organization for Teens and Young adults to be themselves without the influence of drugs and alcohol.

The Audience The Audience is focusing on young

adults and teenagers. To help prevent more addictions to drugs and alcohol per year.

The Technique The artist of this picture uses a dark grey

back ground and in the center is a bright blue eye with the Above The Influence symbol as the pupil.

The bright blue gives emphasis to the symbol.

The eye itself could represent a gateway into the heart and intentions of the person.

To insure that you can be yourself without the cloudy vision of drugs and alcohol.

The Focal Point The focal point, of course, is the

eye. It stands out against the grey

background of the face and brings your attention straight to the Above The Influence symbol.

Ethos This image appeals to the ethical

values of not drinking at a young age as well as knowing what you stand for and your values.

Pathos This appeals to emotions through the

eyes of an ordinary human being. This image makes you feel sad and hopeful at the same time.

It’s sad because you feel sorry for the teenagers that drugs and alcohol have affected

But hopeful for the future generations who won’t be influenced.

Logos This appeals to logic because it is not

logical for teenagers and young adults (Or anyone for that matter) to become addicted to drugs and alcohol.

It can ruin your life in the blink of an eye, before it evens begins. Especially at a young age

30 percent of young adults from the ages of 12 to 17 experiment with illicit drugs and alcohol.
