Alcohol Awareness Analysis

Alcohol is a very important topic in Public Information Campaigns as it causes many deaths in countries across the world.

Some campaigns are displayed like the ones to the left, showing depression and other emotions caused by drinking too much.

There are many examples of adverts, such as…

 Drink and Drive, Too much alcohol kills and the Depression and mood changes alcohol can bring.

                                                                                   

Adverts such as this are sometimes comprised of graphic images, meaning the insides and what drinking can do to you, should you have too much. These adverts prefer to hook people using the Shock method to stain the lessons learned from this in their heads, adverts like this have decreased alcoholic death by 35%.

Un-wanted Sex and Rape/Abuse caused by Alcohol.



Sometimes, Alcohol adverts can relate to Rape and unwanted sex. This is usually aimed at adults but very few at teenagers as well, as under-age sex is increasing as days go on.

there are helplines for such cases and places you can go for help with that sort of problem and they are usually shown in such posters or advertisements so that people can get the help they need with the full contact and usually a text message service.

These advertisements are increasing in number as days go on and it is preventing more sexual health problems too. They use different scenarios to make people contemplate on what alcohol can really do to your body.
Drink and Drive.
Drinking and driving are some of the more dangerous forms of alcohol abuse. It leads to more deaths than any other alcohol abuse mentioned here and puts the road in even more danger as the driver never actually knows what he is doing. Advertisements for such problems include an event and a consequence and finally, a way to prevent this. 

Ways to prevent drinking and driving include using your common sense, not drinking at late times, and having a sober person drive instead if possible. It is also important never to drink with children around as your actions could affect them badly.

As you can see, some adverts use dark humor to get their point across such as the one below.
