I am doing my paper on hockey cartoons and the many differences in them. On of the pictures I have chosen is to the left. It is a commical picture that expresses color well. Color is an important rhetoric device in pictures. It can show a person the audience, it can represent things, etc. In my picture to the left, It appeals to kids. There are many different colors that are thrown at the audience. The fact that the cartoon characters are also kids, crabs a child's attention even more. There is really no sign of movement or sound. There is no lines that suggest action is taking place. One of the two though has to be saying the bottom line. One is informing the other about the team they are playing tonight.
The genre used in this comic is like a newspaper, a cartoon, or a comic book. It is about humer. The texts suggests something funny that will draw the audience in. The text is small though, which means it is aimed towards kids. Children will not pay alot of attention to the text, they are more involved with the picture. There is no represantation of time, other than the audience knows it is during the day some time. They know this because they are playing hockey outside, and you usually can not do that in the dark. Also, there is a blue sky in the background with a cloud. This proves it was day because if it were night, there would be stars in a black background instead of whats there. This is just one of the pictures I am going to anylise even further in my paper. I will use most of the things I talked about above to show the differences in the cartoons.
