They are meant to attract all kind of audience especially the young ones. The thrill shown by the characters while advertising camera scenes attracts the youth and adults alike. The video is so interesting that one continues to watch it. This is the particular characteristic of the ad that it retains the interest of the viewers both male and female. So the characterization and portrayal both contribute to making this ad a great success and it attracts the attention of the audience.
Theme:
The theme of this ad is to market a stable, fast, sharp and versatile type of product. IPhone 6 and 6 plus have penetrated into the market through this ad as it had already become very popular even before its official launch just because of this ad. It presented its future product so successfully that it kept the people waiting for it when it still did not reach the market. The gist of the ad is to introduce a product which has been manufactured by a leading company for special people around the world.
Medium/Historical Context: The ad was in action in September 2014. Jimmy Fallon and Justin Timberlake star in first apple ad for the iPhone Six and iPhone Six Plus, but you might not know it 's them. The two sing "Thus Spoke Zarathustra," a.k.a. the theme from 2001: A Space
The final and the strongest appeal in the advertisement is pathos, the appeal to emotions. Throughout the ad sick children are being shown and getting treated by a doctor or nurse. Showing the family and children laying down on beds who are being diagnosed for cancer. By showing these images the audience feels a sense of loss, fear, pain and grief, even though they do not personally know the children. Also, by not helping these children the audience might feel
The reason for this is that from the advertisement one could sense an appeal to our sense of identity, self-interest and emotions. It added some amount of excitement and humor. A positive image was created from the video about the Papa John’s Pizza and it really made me feel persuaded to buy the pizza.
This paper will examine a particular Apple ad that appeared on television in 1984. The Macintosh was and still is very popular computer that provides a simplistic feel of creativeness and freedom. Freedom is a key concept because the ad expresses the need to have a sense of freedom to do what we want with no restrictions. Apple is well-known all over the world for the sex appeal to its products, like the iPhone, iPad, and the Macintosh series. These products present a color of either silver, slate, or gold that is very appealing to our eyes. And with such unique colors, Apple manages to make the colors of their products to fit in with its surroundings. Although Apple still has to compete against
Lastly, logos is at work in this advertisement but it is being used with the audience instead of the company. They must think about the topic that is being presented in the ad and the reasoning behind why someone would make an advertisement about this
The message conveyed throughout the advertisement is simply representing humanity, our hunt for adventure, our curiosity into the unknown, and our various passions in life. For instance, in the commercial, it depicts people chasing a storm and a scuba diver examining a coral reef. This illustrated that humans naturally have a thrill for adventure and experiencing new things. Additionally, this also depicts people’s curiosity and thirst for exploration. Another example would be the short videos of human passion for athletics and recording the Earth’s beauty. This portrays that
The commercial contains ethos likewise, it is aimed at other phone companies to appeal to their guilty emotions having not living up to their expectations when it comes to their customers. Also, commercial gives imagery to the audience imagining themselves enjoying whether it's their cell phone or tablet while using these plans that T-Mobile has to offer and not having the worry about how much data their using or how much it's going to cost. The commercial is aimed towards the person who is technology savvy and enjoys purchasing phones and data packages at great deals. It also aims at children and teens who need or want a cell phone. Being that this commercial is for the super bowl, it can also reach out to the football
The commercial appeal the audience based on the line of reasoning and shows the inclination and suitable roles of man and woman.
Commercial advertisements create a strong presence in the media due to the power of persuading the audience to buy a certain project. The commercial is promoting the use of diet coke and using Taylor Swift to do so. Diet Coke is a sugar free, soft drink that is very popular, it is promoted and distributed worldwide by Coca- Cola. Coca- Cola spends nearly $3.499 billion in advertisements yearly (Investopedia, 2015, 1). This ad catches the eye of the audience with the use of Taylor Swift and the adorable kittens. In this commercial, it is clear that with every sip the pop-culture singer takes of the Diet Coke, more kittens seem to appear in the apartment until the whole apartment becomes invaded with the tiny kittens. This advertisement efficiently delivers the point to the audience during the commercial video by encouraging them to drink their product Diet Coke while trying to increase the consumption of their product, attract more viewers, and sell more of their product.
Hamad Yousef Professor: Joanne Martin English 113B 12 Mar 2015 Rhetorical Analysis of Advertisement: iPhone-6 The ad by renowned the Apple Inc. an American company to promote the sale of iPhone 6 and iPhone-6 plus has played a pivotal role in increasing the popularity of this phone in the international market. The ad comprises a video in which the cell phones are presented moving clockwise showing every aspect of its body, screen, card slots and different colors. The ad is meant to address the multidimensional cell-phone needs of the affluent classes in the world. The viewers are given psychological suggestions to indirectly compel them to buy this product.
Advertising is a form of communication used to encourage or persuade an audience to continue or take some new action. But when advertisers produce an ad, they have many different variables that come into play if they want to successfully persuade consumers. The first most important step they have to figure out is, what type of audience they are trying to target. They then create images and intend to appeal specifically to the values, hopes, and desires of that particular audience. This is why someone would rather pick the well-known Malboro cowboy ads over the new female cigarettes of Virginia Slims. Each of these ads targets a specific audience;
On December 31st of 1983 an eccentric commercial was introduced, challenging other companies and awaking people all over the country. It has been more than 30 years and people are still talking about Apple’s first Macintosh commercial. Companies use commercials to show the audience that their products are worth buying like Apple did in its first Macintosh commercial. By using themes from George Orwell’s 1984, Apple was able to speak volumes about its product without showing or describing it. Apple visualizes its self as the hero that will save the world and people believed it. Most of us now own an Apple brand. This advertisement is an effective ad because it contains a valuable message that was provided to the viewer by using contrasting visuals and it is about awakening the people and breaking the chains of similarity and loving to be different. Yet, it is ironic because Apple has become one of the most controlling companies in our society.
Different strategies are used in all advertisements. Every aspect of the advertisement is strategically planned to appeal to the audience. For example, an advertisement that does a great job of using sex appeal to reach its audience is “Carl’s Jr all natural burger”. This ad appeared during the super bowl forty-nine, and it was a big hit. The ad features ,22-year-old model buxom, Charlotte McKinney. Throughout the video it shows her walking through the town and appearing as if she is nude. She gets all the attention from the guys in the town as she saunters past. in one scene there’s a man reaching for a tomato as she walks by, she turns around and gives him a flirty look and it emerges as if he is grasping her gluteus. At the end she appears in a bikini nearly nude “I love going all natural,” she purrs, opening wide to take a bite out of a big, juicy, “all natural” hamburger. Advertising appeals aim to influence the way consumers view themselves and how buying certain products can prove to be beneficial for them.
The details are very well developed and well thought out. The use of the different graphics and designs allow the movie to be more interesting. The advertisement itself has a twist to it, rather than what an audience is used to in a commonly told Cinderella movie. Based on, the colors and background of the advertisements allows a mysterious feel what this movie has to offer. This advertising leaves a sense that the movie is going to be very interesting. Through the use of different of colors, images, and what they have to offer allows the movie to want to be build. The use of the actress with the incorporation of the title allows the movie ad to have a sense of unique details. The sense of the dominant mood created allows an audience be appealed to the excitement of what the movie will
The music in the background lures in the audience more and persuades the eyes to focus on the way these “ideal” bodies are being advertised. The commercial depicts the notion that skinny is what is desired. Kim and Khloe Kardashian are displaying what all women wish to have, the perfect body. They are using this sense of desire to lure the audience into persuading them to purchase their products. Affective marketing in commercials consists of certain techniques such as sound, music, and slow motion movements to make the viewer fall in love and be attracted to the product. They also use persuasive words that really make the product seem reliable without question,
This paper will discuss one of the "iphone 4 Face Time" commercial advertisements (HYPERLINK "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yatSAEqNL7k"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yatSAEqNL7k) that I like most due to its ability to create emotional feelings inside me. "Iphone 4" is another appealing product of Apple, launched in 2010 along with several ads on television, newspapers and internet. Apple has a very old history of producing creative and subliminal ads that touch the heart of the consumers, as discussed in the psychoanalytic approach of Sigmund Freud (O'Shanghnessy and O'Shaughnessy 166).
