Response to Excercise 3.5

Not actual image but a close representation of it.

A visual posted on the site mediaviolence.org shows a young boy playing video games with a list of the most played violent games of 2011. This visual makes a powerful statement about how most of the games children play are those violent games. The central image shows just how into the game he is. The background enhances the central image since there are no parents to supervise him as he plays the game he can relax. The visual includes words as well as images. These words suggest that he is playing one the games list in the upper left hand corner. The goal of the organization that posted the visual seems to be to show kids are playing violent video games. The visual is not effective because it does not state an argument it just shows that kids play violent games.
