Research Proposal :
For this research assignment, I chose to research advertisement posters, films, and news media that portray the cigarette culture amongst teenagers in the 40s-80s. I was drawn to the topic after listening to a podcast from the New York Times “The Promise and Peril of Vaping, Part 2 The story of Juul” In the podcast, it addresses how Juul advertisements play a role on this ongoing trend for vaping. Therefore I was curious to see how cigarette commercials are like back in the 40s to 80s. For my risograph poster, I would like to create an advertisement for an e-cigarette company emulating the commercial style back in the 40s to 80s.
