The Disney Cruise Line also utilizes the rhetorical appeal of pathos in almost every one of their pictures to appeal to the reader’s emotions. Most of the pictures that are shown throughout the book contain elements that relate to people having a good time and smiling. For example the first page of the booklet shows several families gathered together to watch fireworks on the deck of the ship. This image appeals to the reader’s emotions as the reader sees several families having a good time and truly enjoying themselves. Seeing a large group of people so ecstatic, the reader cannot help but feel happy as well. The cruise line company also makes the reader feel emotions through the images of the specific locations that the reader can choose …show more content…
Disney Cruise Line takes advantage of the rhetorical appeal of kairos to get people to go on their cruises. One of the ways they use kairos is through the description of their new cruise. The company states, “For the first time in the summer of 2014, Disney Cruise Line sails to Europe with over a dozen ports of call dotting the sunny Mediterranean,” (Disney Cruise Line 24). Disney appeals to kairos by pointing out the fact that this is the first time they are offering this type of cruise. People are often more eager to go on vacations if they believe they are going to be some of the first people to have that experience. Disney utilizes this idea of being the first to make their new customers feel more special and their returning customers feel obligated to try out the new cruise “for the first time.” The Disney Cruise Line again appeals to kairos in the same way about their new Alaskan cruise. They state, “We now also offer an Alaskan cruise that includes historic Sitka,” (Disney Cruise Line 4). They again appeal to the idea that this cruise is brand new and that the readers will be more eager to try a new cruise. Over the course of the entire booklet, the Disney Cruise Line attaches the word “new” to several statements. For example, the cruise line offers all-new enhancements and all-new watery play areas (Disney Cruise Line 5). In doing using the word “new,” the company gets the customer more excited about going on the cruise making them believe that they will be the first to try out the additions. It is well known that people are drawn to “new things,” and Disney takes full advantage of this concept by attaching the word new to whatever statement they can. The thought that the customer is going to experience an aspect of the cruise that is brand new, makes them more excited and more likely to go on the
Visual imagery is often the first step to subconsciously sending the reader into a parallel state of mind as the protagonist, and letting them experience what the characters experienced throughout the story. The visuals used in the beginning of this story convince readers that they have been placed in a safe, secure environment, therefore having a positive effect on readers when they
The theme that one cannot have happiness without pain is expressed with the literary elements foreshadowing, symbolism, and imagery in
As I lay basking in the intense, but pleasurable gulf sun, I can feel the calming rock of the cruise ship. The relaxing music played on a steel drum, flow through my ears. I can hear children laughing while they play poolside and zip down the waterslide. The overwhelming aroma of fresh cooked food from the all-american or Mongolian lunch outlets circulates the ship and makes my mouth water. I can not wait to eat lunch.
Cruise ships are advocates for stress-relieving vacations. Wallace, however, is displaying that the sun does in fact set in paradise. In his personal experience, he is mostly displeased with the cruise line and his journey. The author over-analyzes his denied requests by a man he called “Mr. Dermatitis”, the personalities of
Answer: Carnival should place a high priority on marketing. They can include more varied activities that should be marketed towards different lifestyles. This will attract more people who would not have considered a cruise in the past. They can offer many promotions that lower the cost of their cruise. The company can also offer a large selection of cruise options, with ports located in many countries around the world. (Source: http://www.echeat.com/essay.php?t=31046).
Furthermore, the illustrations paint a beautiful picture that I like to think is an insight into a child’s mind, which I is a key element in this book and what makes it so great. Since the book is narrated by a child the intentional simplicity of the words and the controlled chaos that is the illustrations breathes unadulterated life into a rather normal children’s book.

Visualizing the scene of this tragedy proved to be an effect strategy Beller used to illustrate his tone. The visualizations the author provides generates the specific ideas Beller wants his readers to recognize: “The whole street paused, froze, screamed, and some people broke into tears, many people brought their hands up to their mouths, everyone was momentarily frozen, except for the ashen guy, who just kept walking¨ (Beller, 62). This perception of the crowd creates an image in readers minds. With that image accepted, readers can more fully grasp Bellerś chaotic tone.
By giving the reader a visual representation to go along with the written text, Chast allows the reader to better understand what she is feeling in that exact moment. On page 137, Chast draws herself completely different in each panel. On this page she is describing her dinner experience with her parents one night in the dining room of “The Place”. Elizabeth (her mother) is asking George (her father) how many olives he wants, and this page depicts the back and forth argument that ensues about how many he should eat. In the first panel, Chast draws herself and her parents sitting at the table having a calm conversation. In the second panel, she draws the beginning of the argument, showing her mother’s amazement through her bulging eyes and large speech bubble that covers most of the panel. In a later panel, after making a suggestion that she thought would solve all the confusion, Chast draws herself in a cap and gown outfit alongside a Nobel Peace Prize trophy. This depiction emphasizes how she felt her suggestion would be appreciated by her parents, and also gives the reader the ability to understand her parent’s tendency to create large problems out of small disagreements. In the last panel, Chast’s parents violently scream at her for her suggestion, shown by the the large speech bubble outlined by a jagged edge. Chast was able to express five different emotions in just eight panels without using words to describe her feelings. By doing this, she is tapping into the reader's emotions; not only are the readers reading her story about this moment but they are also in the story with her. By giving the reader visuals that are easily related to, Chast makes the reader they feel the frustration just as she does. On top of showing her exact feelings towards her parents on this page, she also shows her parents’ personalities and how situations just like this one
The humidity and stench were overwhelming, but I kept thinking and reminding the children that it was going to be all worth it. I had only seen a few familiar faces, but most of them I had never seen before in my life. Before the first night ended, Maribel and the children had made a few friends on the ship. It was a good way to make the voyage go by faster, for when they were at play everything seemed to go faster.
Carnival is a leader in the cruise industry and it’s highly likely that the consumers would select this company; as it is also a branded company recognizable on the market it allow the process of word of mouth that lessen the power of the consumers from their self.
I chose to read and comment on Barbara Kiefer’s “Envisioning Experience: The Potential of Picture Books.” Kiefer’s main point in writing this essay was to get the message across that children enjoy picture books that allow them to identify and make connections with the characters or the plots, and that while reading and analyzing the pictures, they gain a better sense of aesthetics and how to interpret them.
Carnival’s value proposition was to be a cheaper alternative to land vacations at all inclusive resorts while providing a variety of activities and destinations in one trip. Carnival was the “fun ship”, providing contemporary vacationing to first-time and repeat cruisers. Because customer retention is low, Carnival uses a more traditional style of marketing, focusing on the short-term customer.
The final uncontrollable force affecting the cruise line industry is competition (Montalvo, 2007). This is probably the least influential force since 91% of the cruise line industry is made up of three companies-Carnival, Royal Caribbean, and Star. These three organizations are world-famous and have developed the cruise concept to the point that there is a cruise that will fit just about every person’s destination dream and budget reality.
Carnival Cruise Lines is the largest cruise company in North America and carries more than 60,000 passengers a week. The Carnival experience is the standard against what past cruisers judge their later cruise experiences. Carnival has captured the "fun" psychographic and has a strong reputation for an enjoyable, relaxed cruise. Furthermore, Carnival has a strong market expansion strategy for selling the mass-market cruise category and first-time cruisers. They have a clear vision and knowledge about the industry and a commitment to their brand essence, which is fun. Also, as an extension to their branding of the "fun" ships they are the low-price leaders. Because of their strong brand image they are able to achieve double-digit growth in
