Got Milk?
For my advertisement, I chose Got Milk? with Taylor Swift in it from 2008. In this advertisement, the visual line that sticks out most to me is the guitar. The guitar line is straight; therefore, its’ emotion is serious. The serious emotion goes along with Taylor’s facial expression as well. She has a very serious look on her face. The shapes in this ad are mostly organic. Taylor’s body is organic, along with her guitar that she is holding. Taylor’s body is organic because its less well-defined edges. Taylor has a serious look on her face. The earrings that she is wearing are geometric, because they form a circle. The earrings are easing a little bit of the seriousness in the ad. Taylor’s body is relaxed. Her guitar is organic as

The texture in this ad is the milk mustache on Taylor’s lips. The milk on her lips make you want to try to wipe it off of her face. Other than the milk on her lips, the artist is not using any other texture features. The unity in this ad is the color scheme. The dark colors are repeated, making the customer want to read the words in the ad. The variety in the ad is Taylor’s milk mustache, because typically you do not see people with milk on their lips. This ad represents asymmetrical balance. The words and the guitar try to even out to make the ad more balanced. The emphasis/focal point is Taylor. What led me there to the start is that she is in the middle of the ad and she is wearing a dark colored outfit. The dark outfit stands out, because the background is a lighter cream color. The colors are common throughout the ad, because it is repeated along with unity. There really is not a common object creating a rhythm in the ad. There is not a flow nor a sense of movement derived from the repetition of regulated visual units. There are no implied lines formed by the edges, repeated objects, nor actual arrows. The contrast is the light and dark color schemes of the ad, along with the texture and non-texture. The artist does not mess with the scale and proportion of the ad. The artist makes everything how it should

    At the very beginning of this ad the music automatically sets an easy, comforting feeling. Every scene in this commercial has an emotional affect, but there are a few that significantly seem to impact the onlooker. For example, it is assumed that most families can easily relate to the scene of the couple coming home with the little girls asleep in their arms. In a different picture, a little girl runs into her father’s embrace who seems to be coming home. Later in the commercial another young girl is shown with her father reading her a storybook.…

    Along with myself many other people felt the same way. What is it about this ad that makes it so appealing? When a company produces an advertisement, its main objective is to connect with the audience and get the product the company is showcasing to sell. Although the ad never really describes the product, it does, however, appeal to persuade many people into switching to their product.…

    This ad lacks logos because it provides no factual evidence behind the ads main claim; however, the rhetorical appeal that is used the most is pathos, the appeal to emotion. The music in the background is a key factor in provoking emotion from the audience, it makes them stop whatever they were doing and look up at the TV. At the start of the ad, the first sound that is heard is birds chirping however soon after, as the animal factories are being built, the music holds a very depressing and sorrowful tone. This sudden change of sound already has grasped the audience's attention without even seeing the ad yet, simply by listening to the sounds. Next the ad shows the building of the animal factories and slowly it escalates from a small house for one pig to a city of factories and roads that overtake the concept of nature.…

    The apartment in which the ad takes place has a green carpet that covers most of the background, this is to help contrast with the red text and make it pop out to the viewer. The carpet, although not the most pleasant shade of green, is neat and clean, almost unused by the couple. The lighting in the household is directed solely towards the couple and also helps bring attention to the text of the advertisement, which is well lit. The doors are locked to help give the couple the privacy they want. The viewer feels voyeuristic, as they are viewing something forbidden, this has the effect of invoking even more curiosity from the viewer.…

    PowerAde and Gatorade Ad Analysis and conclusion Since the inception of advertisements, companies have tried to differentiate themselves from similar products. Many things can be used to contrast their product compared to other products, including picture contrast, positive appeals to ethos, pathos and logo’s, and image-text placement. I decided to do my rhetorical analysis on two images in a very similar market, a Gatorade advertisement, and a PowerAde advertisement. Through my evaluation of each image I will evaluate which image is most effective in my opinion.…

    The left image of the ad gives an impression of sadness and depression, while the right image with the addition of the dog appears cheerful and joyous. The man does not appear lonely with the addition of the dog. His slumped over body stance and tilted head gives him the appearance that he is accepting of the dog. The dog also looks excited to be with the man as his tail appears to be wagging and his tongue which is sticking out. The dog also appears to be giving its undivided attention to the man even though he could be running around or playing in the ocean.…

    Many commercials use different techniques such as humor, animations, comparing to other comaopanies, and color to influence viewers. However, companies today thought of a more successful idea of advertising their products. That successful idea was adding animals to their commercials, or even their logos. Different animals symbolize different characteristics such as, strength, purity, and human-like characteristics. Tigers and horses may symbolize the characteristic of strength, while the doves symbolize the characteristic of purity.…

In today’s time, world of mouth and the opinions of others are restaurant’s most helpful and hurtful invention in the growth of business.

    The song of choice was “Hey Brother” to enforce that family feeling and show the “Brotherly Love.” The music is played throughout the commercial starting off slow and hitting the high point of the song at the climax of the commercial to get to a person’s ethos and pathos. The precise point the company climaxes the scene on the screen and the music being played is at the exact spot they are to get the most powerful, emotional feelings they can out of a person. The songs lyrics talk about there being nothing they wouldn 't do for their brother and that is what is seen in the commercial. When the commercial nears the end and it is perceived as the younger of the two brothers is going to be robbed of his coke; the older brother comes in and risk having to fight three kids or doing anything for his brother to get his Coke back.…

    Even something as small as blurring out the background on an off centered portrait. The intention is to make the background stand out, drawing your attention to what is going on in the negative space. This makes the viewer curious, which makes them notice more. This was one of the many forms of subtle tactics used in this ad. Ad campaigns always do this in order to try and trick the reader into thinking that they are right no matter what the argument is…
