Bell Ringer Activity:
Watch the video, "Pathos, Logos, and Ethos in Advertising" and answer the following questions.

1) In the first video for "Pathos" (an emotional appeal), what is the emotion you're expected to feel?

2) In the second video for "Logos" (a logical appeal), what is the logic behind the video with the salmon and bear?

3) In the third video for "Ethos" (an ethical appeal to credibility/authority), why/how are the three hosts considered credible?

  1. 1) In the first video for Pathos, you are expected to feel sad at first, then at the end, when the puppy comes home, you are expected to feel happy.

    2) In the second video for Logos, the logic behind it shows how you wouldn't actually attack a bear for salmon, you can just buy it at a store.

    3) In the third video for Ethos, the three hosts are considered credible because they are interesting people and thats who everyone would want to see hosting the VMAs.

  2. 1) In the first video for "Pathos" you are expected to have a sad emotional feeling in the beginning, but then in the end, feel joyful because the puppy found his way home.

    2) In the second video for "Logos" the logic is that you don't need to attack a bear to get salmon, you can just buy it. It is very logic information.

    3) In the third video for "Ethos" the three hosts were considered credible because they are famous. We may think they are credible because people know them well and would want to watch the VMAs for that reason.

  3. 1. The emotion you are expected to feel is sad for the dog and owner since they are separated then happiness once they are back together.
    2. The logic is that no one really went out to fight a bear to get salmon you just have to go buy it yourself.
    3. The three hosts are credible because they bring a lot of attention to the show because of how popular they all are.

  4. In the Pahtos video it makes you feel sad because the dog gets lost but then your happy when he finds his way home.
    In the logos video it grabs your attention by having a human and a bear are fighting and then when you aren't expecting it the screen shows the product.
    The three in the last video are credible because they are popular people hosting the VMAs

  5. 1) In the first video for Pathos, the emotion you're expected to feel is sadness at the beginning when the puppy is lost. Then when the puppy is saved and comes home you feel happiness.

    2) In the second video for Logos, the logic is that you would not try and fight a bear for salmon because you can just buy salmon at the store.

    3) In the third video for Ethos, the three hosts are famous and hosting the VMAs so that is why they are considered credible.

  6. 1) In the first video for "Pathos", your emotions are set on the feeling of sadness because the dog was separated from it's owner, but in the end you are expected to feel happy as the owner and puppy are happily reunited.

    2) The second video for "Logos", the logic is easily viewed as you would not try and fight a bear for salmon because it would be easier and more logical to just buy more salmon at the store.

    3) In the third video for "Ethos" the three hosts: Kevin Hart, Kim K, and Kanye are very much famous and having them as the host for the VMAS would be considered credible as they would draw much attention.
