Critical Thinking


I choose the photo 1, I think this photo, is a perfect description of what stereotype’s mean, because, you are thinking that the man only for having those tattoos is a bad person. In other countries, tattoos means a lot of things, one of them can be if that person was in prison, in New Zealand, the Maori culture uses them as a battle sign. In this picture you can see that the man is taking care of his child, the caption says: “Body modifications do not change character”, the meaning of these is, that him having tattoos doesn’t make him a bad person.
Some tattoos as I said, describe a person’s life, some tattoos are also art, it is the way you look at it. There are persons with their whole body tattooed and for me, that it is art. Some tattoos as I have seen in television programs, are used to show that you are in a crime group, in prison some are used to show how may time you have been there.
In conclusion, don’t let the front of something tell you how it is his interior, don’t let something like tattoos tell you how it is that person, because you don’t know anything about him.

  RED BULL 
  






The logo of red bull is : red bull gives you wings



The idea as a red bull energy drink is that famous people like in this case it is Sebastian Vettel is promoting this drink right through their careers and achievements and that the brand comes across their clothes and cars.






one of the messages that have red bull is that Red Bull gives you wings, and that is for people to understand that this energy drink will give many energies, so as to "to fly "
 

  
the idea of Red Bull is sponsoring the most famous for doing so much more known famous .

energy drinks (red bull) are legal and are sold to people over 15 years.
 
the red bull are great for sports give you a lot of energy, so in most contests always ends Red Bull. 
I chose Sebastian Vettel  to promoting this energy drink because Vettel  is the best pilot of  F1.
    
and remember:  RED BULL GIVES YOU WINGS
