Advertisements are deceiving; cigarette companies use them to target consumers of different social statuses, race, and ages. The majority of the ads portray an image that makes the consumer believe that if they use their product they will look or be as happy as the person shown in the ad. Yet many ads do not show the side effect that their product can have or the effect it can cause on the consumers health. For example in my ad, it tries to convince young adults to buy Newport cigarettes. The ad targets young adults of all races, making them believe that if they smoke Newport cigarettes they will look as healthy, have a good time, and be cool around their friends and peers when in reality it is not true, therefore this ad is ineffective.…
In Jib Fowles’s essay “Advertising’s Fifteen Basic Appeals” he exclaims that, “Human beings, it is presumed, walk round with a variety of unfulfilled urges and motives swirling in the bottom half of their minds” (Fowles Par. 2). With this being said, advertisers appeal to their consumers through these subconscious urges. For example, in the Silverado “strong” ad, Chevy displays their Silverado truck being driven around by hard working Americans, and it also shows families together. Also, there is a song…
Did you know that the average person sees about 5,000 ads a day! That is about 5 a minute! In this new consumer market companies are constantly fighting one another for customers and looking for any angle that can make them stand out. This means that companies need to make their advertisements memorable because if they don’t they will quickly be forgotten about and the ad would be a waste of money. However, once they have your attention then they can make their pitch and hopefully sell you on buying new insurance or a politicians vote.…
In the t.v. genre, commercials are created with the intended purpose of grabbing the audience’s attention and drawing focus to the product being advertised. Commercials can attract a person’s attention with a plethora of devices such as a catchy jingle, flashy pictures, and an upbeat intro with a memorable slogan ( i.e. “Shamwow!”). In Wells Fargo’s “Learning Sign Language” a lesbian couple is seen practicing sign-language, incorporating into their daily routines. The commercial wraps up with the couple being introduced to a young girl for the first time, and it turns out the young girl is being adopted by the women and she is deaf, validating why the moms-to-be were shown learning ASL.…

As far as being persuasive goes, commercials and television clips can, and should aspire to be very effective when shown in the right way. Regardless of what audience it targets. By using the right amount of logos, ethos, and pathos the commercial can reach out to a greater audience, therefore making it highly affective. The video I chose to analyze is a BC SPCA animal cruelty awareness commercial.…
Proctor and Gamble surveyed 1300 American women between the ages of 16 and 24 to collect data for its “like a girl” campaign. It’s target demographic for a feminine care product, Always. The 60-second version of the ad debuted on NBC’s Today Show on January 29, 2015 and was aired again during the halftime of Super Bowl XLIX on February 1, 2015. A longer film had been out since June, 2014. That video was one of the top viral ads for 2014 with 54 million views on YouTube alone but the Super Bowl doubled that audience.…
“All is Powerless” Mophie "All is Powerless" is an advertisement directed for Mophie Inc. by Biscuits 's Christopher Riggert. In this advertisement, the director presents all sorts of doomsday events, from gravity failing to function, to flying penguins, natural disasters, fishes falling from the sky, and for some reason dogs walking their owners. Finally at the end, the ad brings everything together by revealing that this is how a God feels when his cell phone is about to die, promoting the product that Mophie wanted to advertise with its logo. After doing some research on Mophie 's product, I found out it is pretty boring.…
Advertisements are all around us, they have become part of our everyday life. This makes it easier to not pay any attention to them. Since we really are not paying attention to advertisements, it makes the companies who make these ads work harder to get our attention. I have compared two advertisements, although both advertisements are not selling the same, or even similar products, I believe the way they are relaying the message is something they have in common.…
Advertisements and customer promotions can be used to demonstrate the closest and cleanest shave…
In large, all capital, bold letters the ad reads, “EXTRAORDINARY VOLUME FEELS LIKE 2X MORE HAIR.” The ad claims that the audience with look like they will have twice as much hair than they actually do. How could a woman who does not like how thin their hair is not be immediately drawn in and intrigued? Just after the word “hair” there is a very tiny asterisk that can be very easily missed. The asterisk goes down to the bottom, to the fine print, and reads, “Based on consumer study.”…
There is no dialogue in the commercial, but it clearly reaches out to women as models are presented with a runway atmosphere. In other words, these ladies in the commercial demonstrate fierce and bold facial and body language as it is presented in the urban area where fashion and style are most likely presented. In the background, electronic or dance music plays…
Like Jerry the Subway guy trying to get people to buy sandwiches from their by saying they saved his life by eating subway everyday it made him lose all his weight. The fifth appeal is the need to aggress. Just like the need for sex commercials tend not to use the need to aggress because people tend not to remember the product just the aggressive nature of the add. The need of aggress usually shows anger and violence in the ads. The sixth appeal is the need to achieve and most advertiser use celebrities to sell their product saying that if you use that specific product you can be as great and successful as them.…

Sex is also a popular approach in which the company promoting the product can target a specific gender. Moreover, showing a uniqueness of a product is another approach an advertiser can take for a commercial. If the audience believes that only this one product can do the thing they need, they will buy it (“11 Different Types of TV Commercials”). There are many other examples of different advertisement techniques, and the author will choose the approach that best fits their purpose and audience. Steve Madden is a famous shoe designer who has worldwide recognition.…
