Propaganda Project

12191702_637878566355453_3987132194507909446_nOne my notice after looking at the poster that Aaron has used a lot of propaganda techniques. One technique right of the bat someone would notice is Common Enemy”. It is evident because in the poster it shows that the humans being the common enemy.  Another piece of evidence that it has common enemy is that the humans has monster like features which would make it really easy to tell who was the enemy.

Another propaganda technique Aaron has used is repetition. You can see that the following phrase “Help us” is repeated several times all throughout the poster. The phrase has only been said by the pigs. This phrase is used and used over and over again which makes it repetition.

The technique bandwagon also applies to the poster. The Old Major as an angel in the poster is trying to recruit more animals saying “Help us comrades to fight for freedom!”. The goal of the Old Major in the poster is to recruit more animals for the fight against the humans which is bandwagon.

The last and final technique used in  poster is glittering. The way it is used is the slogan “Help us against the monsters” on the top of the poster. It is sensed in the way of creating peace and freedom to the animals.
