The pills were green rectangles with the markings “S903.” There were a total of fifteen pills in the bottle. The pills were identified using DRUGS.COM as Alprazolam 2 MG…

the middle of the ad. Mother, father, sister, brother, grandfather, and grandmother hold bottles of 7up while seated around a toy train set. Above the family Christmas scene, in large font, reads, “The All Family Holiday Drink.” Below the heading, several subheadings describe 7up as “wholesome for everyone,” and if “You like it, it likes you!” To create product familiarity for the consumer, a large sweating bottle of the cold beverage extends the length of the ad.

perfume bottles after the shape of the male and female featured in this advertisement. The women’s perfume bottle is curvy with a tall thin cap; the men’s cologne bottle is thick, sturdy and built.

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. The Title reads ‘this calls for Budweiser…

Fighting Stigma and Embracing Real Beauty: Advertising floods the airwaves of our culture.

In observing the Colonel’s house, Forché sees “broken bottles embedded in the walls” of the house. This scene transforms into depictions of torture and violence, as the broken bottles were being used to “scoop the kneecaps from a man’s legs or cut his hands to lace” (Forché 473).
