Our world relies on consumers to purchase products. Purchasing products is what keeps the country on its feet. As there are consumers, there are also producers. These producers sell their products by advertising to consumers. Furthermore, producers appeal to their consumers in these ads to make their products seem more enticing to buy.…
First, the ad starts with lightning flashing as fog sifts through a haunted themed mansion. A poorly lit man emerges from the gloom with a flaming candle in one hand. An organ plays on its own, the man asks, "Do you know me?" (American Express). A scurrying hunchback passes behind him as he continues, "It's frightening how many novels of suspense, I have written, but still when I'm not recognized it just kills me" (American Express).…
The Onion poked fun at the ways in which products are marketed at consumers using satire. The MagnaSoles article references false logos such as pseudoscience as well other nonscientific terms and concepts to advertise their product. The article also uses faulty logic to try and convince readers that MagnaSoles are great products to buy. Through these strategies, The Onion is implying that other products are marketed ridiculously to consumers. This MagnaSoles advertisement does not put its best foot forward with all of the false logos.…
HEB is a grocery store chain with varying food products. This is an advertisement done by the grocery store HEB, about their fresh lean meats. Using bright colors and a catchphrase to emphasize the leanness of the meat; as well as a well-known health association used to give credibility and using a logical approach. The purpose of HEB’s advertisement is to show the consumer about the healthiness of the meat and have their extra lean meat be bought; providing a new and healthy way to eat meat. One of the center focuses of the advertisement is a big blue catchphrase discussing the meats.…
The central music in this ad elicits powerful emotions from its viewers attempting to make them act on the problem at hand. The music, which is Sarah McLachlan’s own “Answer”, starts off very dreary and melancholy, reducing the mood to a very serious and gloomy state. The first lyrics in the song go “I will be the answer… I will be there for you”; by having you hear this song Sarah McLachlan and the ASPCA wanted to get into your head that you can be the answer and be there for the shelter pets.…
The commercial advertises the purpose of the ASPCA, asking viewers to join and donate to help the organization. It opens the eyes of viewers, raises awareness towards animal cruelty, and uses heart breaking images and background music to set a somber tone and emotion to encourage the target audience to donate, purchase or help provide shelter for these…
Third year communications honours student, Tahzib Khondker writes about Apple’s nationally recognized ‘1984’ Super Bowl advertisement and how it assists in framing a technological deterministic culture within society. A copy of the 1984 Super Bowl advertisement was posted on YouTube and gathered more than 10 million views and still counting. Comprehension of this research is valuable for those in the marketing business trying to find different ways of selling technology or even framing relationships with technology. Some argue the most enjoyable part of the Super Bowl are the games itself; meanwhile others claim the entertaining advertisements that air during commercial break brings forth the most entertainment and seem to grow popularity among…
The author Ally Fogg admits that Sainsbury’s Christmas ad is breathtaking, emotional and well made, but on the other hand the ad left him feeling uncomfortable and with disgust. Many brave people were killed in the first world war. Everyone imagines war as one of the worst images of human cruelty but Sainsbury’s changed this image just to sell its products. People cannot find blood, strong language and any other horrific images there. Fogg thinks that this whole theme of the war is not appropriate at all for this kind of advert, but what is most shocking is that war is shown as something beautiful.…
Doom for the Presidency Many ads have come across my television within the last few months, and some ads are about the upcoming presidential election. One specific example of an ad about the election would be one that targets Hillary Clinton. I have hardly seen ads that aren’t approved by Hillary Clinton about the election, which is why I was so surprised to see find this ad online. This ad starts out by showing a picture of the White House, and in the background, it appears to be storming.…
This advertisement is clearly aimed towards young adults due to the fact that the advertisement sports two young and healthy people, side-by-side, listening to music- a common activity that many young adults practice. Because the…

Out of the three inspired station, country music captures the attention of the more mature audience, which would most likely be reading a newspaper. The Sunday paper comes out weekly, and the total cost of a full-page advertisement for over the course of a month will come to a total of $143,136. The country inspired advertisement will bring joy every Sunday and could lead to a fun family night with their favorite country music. Similarly to the Cosmopolitan advertisement I envision a woman at a music festival but the background should encompass a country music setting. With the print advertisements, the more challenging part will be incorporating the music into the advertisement.…
As stated before, the pathos appeal is very strong in this advertisement. To state the obvious, the advertisement shows homeless animal, struggling for warmth and even using an old newspaper as a blanket. This approach is appealing to the viewer’s sympathetic side, hoping that the viewer will take a stand against global warming - simply after viewing that. Looking deeper into the advertisement, there is an ominous, dark color, surrounding the entire advertisement. This color, once again, plays into the viewer’s emotions, creating a sad, depressed feeling when looking at the advertisement.…
Companies are always looking for new, enticing and creative ways to advertise to their target audience in a rapidly changing society. Where companies need to be careful not to arouse controversy with their adverts. I will be looking at how a single company, Budweiser, have adapted their marketing in the last 47 years by comparing two of their adverts. The first advert I will be looking at was published in 1963, it is a single image with a text overlay.…

In the background one sees a church. In the bottom right hand corner, we see another tub of ice-cream but this time with the company name more visible. This is obviously an advertisement for ice-cream made by the company Antonio Federici.…
