Advertisements are everywhere, whether it be on the walk to the park or scrolling through my Instagram feed. They control the way we think and heavily impact the way we spend money, to do that advertisers use ethos, pathos, and/ or logos. When ethos is used on an advertisement often times, celebrities are modeling with the product because people tend to trust familiar faces. When pathos is intended to be in use, the advertisement tends to target the audience’s emotions and is often a sad ad.

Just like many other people, I wanted to see what the craze was about when this film was produced back in 2020. From interviews with former tech company employees to societal examples, Jeff Orlowski used various rhetorical strategies to convey an important message within his world-famous film.
