First Day Commercial Analysis

Improved Essays
It is now the first Sunday in February and everyone is watching one and only one thing across America. The Super bowl. There are only tree reason why to be watching this massive event. You are either watching for the game itself, the commercials or both. For the super bowl, the commercials are a memorable part of the game because no one has seen them before and they are usually are different and more interesting to the viewer compared to regular commercials. I find that these commercials has more of an influence or impact on a viewer then a regular commercial. Why? Because people are more aware and want to notice the commercials. Looking back at this past year’s super bowl, one commercial I can point out is a commercial for The Hyundai Genesis and is called “First Date” (Link to this commercial is posted above.)

I was very interested as to why people may think this is what the father is really doing as opposed to being over protective. Then looking back through the commercial, any time that the boy would get close to the daughter, the father pops up instantly stopping what was about to happen. They are then alone in the car, like before the boy tries to get close to the daughter, the dad pops up. That last seen and given the boys look, I think is what would be why people think that the girl would have a chance of being sexually assaulted. I also think that at this point of time in the United States, sexual assault is a topic that is becoming more and more of a controversy to the point where people are starting to see a commercial like this as a way of saying sexual assault. The commercials intent was just to be an over protected dad, but people start to over think the

    The humor within the commercial mainly appeals to the parents of teenagers or upcoming teen drivers. Dean Winters succeeds the persona of a “typical” teenage girl driving in her pink car, distracted by her phone. It’s absurd enough to be memorable, which grabs viewers and allows them to recall Allstate Insurance Company. The “teenager” that appears in this advertisement provokes…

    This responsibility that the man possesses shows that he is responsible for others around him and makes dog owners understand this because of the constant care and attention that they need on a daily basis. If he can be responsible for his dogs, he must be responsible for himself and everything else around him within his life. By portraying the main character in such a high manor, it gets the audience to reflect on their own questionable behaviors that they may or may not have.

    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.…

    This ad progresses back in time through the life of a dastardly man whom caused many crimes in his life such as bank robbery, possible rape, manslaughter, and animal cruelty among other things.

The story goes into detail about how the mother perfected her daughter’s clothes and hair, along with going to extreme lengths to get her to school. It is evident after reading that the family lives a poverty stricken life and the reason why the character’s mother was so determined to get her daughter to school is to give her a better life than the one she had as a child. The reader knows the mother didn’t get an education when she asks another woman for help filling out a form because she can’t read or write, it is also evident in the way that she talks.

    Hyundai does not just list horsepower, or special feature of their car, they highlight one of those features using a story that most parents can relate to. This move is just made more effective by the humor and playfulness going into it, taking a situation most dad’s dread to think of, and turning into something they can laugh with. Thinking from the point of view of a father, I can see how this commercial is very effective. Of course Hyundai does not expect dads to start following their daughters on dates like Kevin Hart in the commercial, but by showing him crash three typical date spots, it shows fathers that they can know what their daughters are doing at all time. This is even further reasserted by the slogan “A dads gotta do what a dads gotta do”, right before Kevin Hart asks his daughter what she did that night and turns to smile to the camera.…
