Pearl Izumi Ad Analysis

Improved Essays
In this Ad by Pearl Izumi, it is advertising their product which is supposed to make you run so fast it will tire your dog to death. They show a white man dressed in running athletic attire and a dog. This setting contributes to the Ad in the process of them being outdoors maybe on a run or something. Pearl’s message is entirely used in the wrong context saying what they're advertising (the shoes) will tire your dog out to the point where they will be dead even if the human is still running. In addition just by looking at it the lower title says,”run longer” and the dog is dead and the human is just supposed to run longer..??? The use of colorful backrounds shows that maybe this Ad was a little more modern than some of the other ones. Pearl’s Ad is very well seen with that nice outdoor theme but once you know the story behind it you will regret that first impression. IN the backround of the outdoors it seems they are in a climate where it is warm maybe at a trail somewhere in the mountains or desert.

The Ad mostly targets humans who feel that man should be able to run as fast as animals which is very wrong. More likely than not it is impossible for humans to run faster on their own than animals whether or not some shoes do that. It could be also targeted towards the race of dogs or any type

This Ad only shows a man with a dog lying on the ground. It can be false advertisement because shoes are not guaranteed to make you run faster (not found for sure.) The Ad does not also show how the product is supposed to work it just says that it will, :bring out the animal in you.” and, “This design will make it less work for your legs. Of course there are some tricks that Pearl uses to deceive the audience like for the fact that animals will always stay above the chain when it comes down to human vs animals

    In the Arms of the Angel When a person is affected emotionally by something, these feelings cause them to act drastically beyond their own judgement. One example of this would be the bond between man and animal. A human would go out of their way to provide loyalty, happiness, and care for their pets. With this being said, seeing an animal hurt or in inadequate conditions could cause a person to feel sympathetic for the animal. The British Columbia Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals is an organization that feels the same and would do anything in its power to help an animal in need.…

    Nike was founded in late 1960s and since it has been the leading sport selling product in America with its slogan “just do it”. Nike has thousands of advertisement, but this one stands out to me. To me it represent that Nike does not only make one pair of shoes for specific sport,but for all of them. The advertisement is trying to show consumers how yes, their product maybe expensive, but you will not only be using it for one sport or hobby. Sports is a big thing in the american culture, but to play a sport you need the equipment.…

    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.…

    Humor in advertisements seem to grasp the viewer 's attention almost immediately. The ad conveys gender stereotypes in a sarcastic and comedic fashion, and the humor in a way mocks some of society 's ridiculous masculine ideals. In this advertisement, an oyster magically appears in the hands of Mustafa, holding tickets instead of pearls. Then, the tickets and oyster turn into a fountain of diamonds from which the Old Spice body wash rises. Additionally, the ending, "I 'm on a horse," adds to the commercials overall humor and ridiculousness, with Mustafa justifying his actions with the simple line, "Anything is possible, when your man smells like Old Spice."…

    Do you wear make-up? Would you wear the Cover Girl Lash or Volume Exact mascara due to a celebrity like Rihanna is wearing it? Most females, but not all would buy makeup products like the Cover Girl mascara just to test it out to see how it looks. Then there are some females that are big fans of the celebrity and would buy anything that the entertainer is on. I do believe Cover Girl chooses this for their cover to catch the attention of teenage girls and young women.…
