The Nutrigrain Choices commercial begins with a woman getting off the subway and moves to her working in her office. The screen splits and two scenarios are set forward: one where she chose to eat a Nutrigrain bar on the left and the other where she chose a donut on the right. There is a voice-over about one decision leading to another. The woman on the left is shown eating a burrito, brownie, and pasta as the commercial continues. On the right, we see her choosing a salad, a cup of fruit, and vegetables. The woman on the right is seen walking up an escalator with a smile while her counterpart rides up with a wearied expression. The woman on the left walks away after drying her face, but the one on the right continues looking at her face with a smile. An image of wheat appears and shifts to picture of Nutrigrain’s strawberry cereal bar, as the audience is told the product is made with real fruit and whole grains. The commercial is targeting a large audience of adults and teens. Most individuals in these two groups are often busy, having little time to make or choose healthy food. Younger children often look to adults and would not be old enough to understand the message being conveyed. For this reason, the commercial uses a central character that audience can relate to, a working woman that is constantly on the go. Her action and surroundings reflect common places a person would go to and the people they are surrounded by. The audience is being told that a “good decision,”
For instance, the little girl never had to change the batteries once in the teddy bear she received from her dad, they were perceived to be long lasting. Also, the girl always trusted her dad that he did love her and even if she was upset and didn’t understand why her dad was gone for a long time, she brought the teddy bear everywhere, until finally, he came home. This parallelism was a big literary element in the commercial because it helped the audience clearly see the connection between the story and the
Rhetorical analysis of 7-Up ad 1957 “Youngest Customers in the Business” reads an ad from the Ladies’ Home Journal magazine, published in 1955. Even though the headline might be a bit odd, a person might consider the context and understand why the ad was believable. The 1950s were known to use little kids in print ads. In the ad, 7-Up appeals to reader’s emotions, especially mothers would pause to see what the baby was drinking and if it could benefit them. The advertisement utilizes the three rhetorical appeals of pathos, logos, and ethos through its image and implied meanings, through this, the image is able to convey a vivid sense of nutritional value from drinking a 7-Up.
The commercial portrays two manly men in the masculine environment driving on an all-terrain vehicle in the jungle, battling snakes and shooting lasers to each other. The main idea of the commercial is that used to be feminine diet drink is made by Dr. Pepper “not for women.” The language used in the commercial triggers emotions in younger males saying them
The woman in the commercial reminisces of her father when she was younger which appeals to the audience’s sense of empathy. When she was young, her father taught her to ride a bike. The audience at one point likely learned how to do something from their guardian whether that was riding a bike or tying their shoes. Just like in the commercial, learning these qualities
NutriGrain wants you to know that eating their product can inspire you to make healthier decision for the rest of your day. The company is telling consumers that buying their product is a healthy choice that can help you stay away from other unhealthy snacks. With this commercial, NutriGrain preys on the guilt most women have if they indulge in the high calorie office snacks or are too busy to eat at all.

I think the commercial is directed towards people who are starving and have demand to have their food made fast. The commercials audience could also be younger children because by having them watch it and seeing the bright atmosphere, food that has bright coloring and draws your attention, and happy people may draw attention to the younger kids in hopes they will persuade their parents to go there.
"Give Extra, get extra. A piece of long lasting Extra is a simple pleasure that helps make real connections special(Wrigley)." The main objective of a company that produces a commercial is to get its product to sell. There are many methods that are used to attract the audience to purchase its product. The Wrigley JR. Company took advantage of the human senses of love and the contagious feeling to persuade its viewers into buying its product. The company of Extra Gum took its own product to another level with its commercial. The Extra Gum commercial was persuasive because of all the rhetorical devices used to target the viewer's emotions
The audience see the speaker/author as reliable, competent, respectful, sincere and thoughtful. During the Hershey's commercial, it attract the family and gets more family attention.

The video I have chosen was a 2016 Cheerios commercial displaying father’s dancing with their children. I personally feel the world is overfilled with marketing and advertisement schemes however, something about this commercial I enjoy seeing. It portrays pathos through its cheerful song and dance among happy, healthy children and their fathers. The audience, receives feelings of happiness, love, care and fun upon viewing it. The commercial is placed within the bright homes of several different families. Where they, with energy and happiness, present their own father and child dance routines. A healthy long living life, spent with family is a message everyone desires. It creates a connection with its targeted market; families and older adults. This connection is created through showing everyday families having breakfast and making the most out of the time they spend together. This also can also
The settings of the advertisement, which are a business building, a restaurant, and a street, clearly represent the three different classes of the upper- class, the middle-class and the lower-class. Additionally, women's different types of clothing also represent the different classes. The girl in the business office has worn a well-groomed suit, which suggests that she belongs to the upper-class. Women in the street have worn jeans, which suggests that they belong to the lower-class. The advertainment also sells some messages to the dominant elite with the product. The first message being communicated is that women are products that are meant to be consumed and when a product is bought, women come with the product. The main character in the advertisement has worn a jean and has opened its buttons, which suggests that he is a lower-class person. After he chews the Clorets gum, which is a high-end product, he is considered an upper- class person who attracts all the girls wherever he goes. Women are attracted to him just because of the fresh air created by the gum and before consumption, he could not attract women. Therefore, it is the gum that attracts women, not the guy. The second message of the dominant elite that is communicated to the audience is that women should sell their body to the men. All women in the commercial try different sexy poses in front of the man in the advertisement to attract him. The woman in the
This documentary touched on so many accurate points in today’s society. Ads encourage unhealthy attitudes such as eating disorders. The obsession
The intended purpose of this commercial advertisement is to try and encourage the audience to drink the product Diet Coke. Connecting, a readily available soda beverage to a popular, well- known singer is a powerful tool used by Coca-Cola. The advertisement persuades the audience to drink diet coke by including kittens and Taylor Swift, both objects that a large population finds appealing. Not only does the advertisement attract new customers, but it encourages
Oscar Mayer presents two arguments of it being natural and not artificial. In the WomensHealth magazine, Oscar Mayer uses parts of nature to present that it’s natural, but the Hollywood sign in the background projects it to be artificial. Oscar Mayer has a lot of additives that make it a good product for the consumers, like the descriptive details of what’s in it. This advertisement challenges the socio economic status including gender and age. Also this advertisement shows different ideas for the consumers to figure out, that can sometimes be elusive when you analyze it.
The next time slot is the ten a.m. to four p.m. window. The ads aired during this time generally aim to reach the older generation and have to do with aging. Another target is children when they arrive home from school. A commercial that depicts how advertisers target the elder age group is from Coca-Cola, “Older Couple Turn into Adorable Kids.” The appeal is ethos; older people will feel and appear younger after they
Advertisers create commercials to connect the viewer to the product, through psychological appeals and further persuade them into believing the health food scam of the fast-food chains (Bovee 360). Subway has mastered the art of appealing to consumer emotions when regarding health. Their commercial “Friend of Jared”, proves Subway promotes the healthy food image but deceives the public with its actual product. The commercial is set in a baseball field on a nice day. The actors are participating in an amateur game and appear happy and full of energy. They quickly introduce the characters by flashing their name and amount of weight lost in the middle of the screen. While this is taking place the background jiggle sings, “join the Subway family now… it’s not too late the only thing that’s missing is you!” (YouTube Video). Once the jiggle concludes it flashes to pictures of Subways product, showing a rather large sandwich. They advertise the Subway sandwich having only 6 grams of fat, however, in tiny print at
