The two brands that where being advertised were Solo and Mount Franklin. Solo is a company/brand that makes Lemon flavoured soft drinks that they say have real lemons and is a thirst crusher. Then there is Mount Franklin who has bottled spring water that what they say is 100% pure spring water. The audiences that have been targeted are different for both companies. For Solo, they are targeting people that like to have some soft drink. For Mount Franklin, they target an audience of people that like to have pure water that is bottled up and that they can buy from the supermarket etc. The contention for the Solo ad is that people will do anything for Solo in this case keep chasing the barrel around a whole town and then when its rolling off the …show more content…
In the Solo ad the contention is that people will do anything for some Solo but in the Mount Franklin ad the contention is that with every sip you take of the water it provides you with a different scene of escapism with every sip that makes the audience think that if it’s in the ad they must be able to do it too. There are many different persuasive techniques though just like how the Mount Franklin ad uses escapism as a persuasive technique whereas Solo doesn’t use escapism in their ad at all. Also in the Mount Franklin ad, they use Big Font as a persuasive technique in the ad to get their message across whereas the Solo ad doesn’t have much writing in the ad and when it did it was only small writing at the end that you couldn’t read. More about Mount Franklin they use Sex Appeal like when Jennifer Hawkins is on the beach in her bikini where the Solo ad doesn’t use Sex appeal in their ad. Also, to grab the audience’s attention the Mount Franklin ad uses sharp transitions to get their message across whereas the Solo ad uses facial expression when the Mount Franklin ad doesn’t use facial expressions at all. Also, the Solo ad uses running to grab people’s attention whereas Mount Franklin doesn’t have anything linking towards

    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…

    The middle part of this ad when the narrator is describing the main character’s descent into meth addiction and the camera cuts to many different scenes very fast. First it cuts to a close-up of an eye with fast moving graphics around the eye then it cuts abruptly to water dripping. It continues this fashion of quick cuts between people fighting and close-ups of faces. This segment of the ad is very disorienting. It is hard for the audience to tell exactly what is happening in each scene.…

    My advice to makayla is to never get stuck on one question no longer than five minutes. It's okay to skip a question and come back to it later once you have answer all of the other questions. It's also okay to guess intelligently on some of the questions. I feel that you shouldn't always linger on the same questions, because that can cause you to loose most of you time on the test. John When writing I think John should just write everything out first step-by-step.…

    During the whole ad there is not a single word spoken other than the lyrics of the song in the background but at the end the creators of the ad choose to put in just one sentence to finalize the ad and those areas “direct from our imagination the new Civic Sudan from Honda.” With that one sentence the ad shows that it is trying to get the innovators and the adventures to buy this car because with the word imagination it gives the feeling of looking for the next big thing or the feeling of going out into the word and looking for adventure rather than ending with some sort of message that will show the importance of family and keeping them safe. The ad uses word choice and in only ten words the ad makes it clear that it is targeting the innovators and the adventures. In conclusion, the ad would look entirely different is the ad were targeting a different group of people for instance a family looking to buy a car rather than a car for someone that is looking for the next big thing or someone that is looking for adventure.…

    Persuading is a major component to advertisements, and one could say that companies get their persuasion techniques from a famous philosopher named Aristotle. Aristotle has three techniques for persuasion: Logos, Pathos, and Ethos. Companies use these strategies to support their primary message – what Aristotle would call “Enthymeme.” The short 17-second skit commercial advertisement…
