PepsiCo with almost a 3-minute commercial using Kendall Jenner as the silent communication source, using visual language with all ethnic and race being included using career choices such as a cellist, a photographer and dancer; a song written and sung by Skip Marley “Lions”; not to mention the men in blue was expected to be a hit advertisement by showing it was time to bring the world together as one. To be able to bring peace and understanding to every individual or let it be shown that all people count, not just one ethnic group or race. This advertisement was used to try to defuse the conflict of street protest and the violence that often comes with it, particularly the black lives matter movement. Showing the men in blue there to protect and serve; yet will do whatever it takes to control the ongoing issue at hand. The way Jenner being shown ditching a high fashion photo shoot ripping off her blonde wig, to join a protest and prance around with every nationality with a Pepsi in hand smiling as saying this is what will make the world a better place. The words in the music “we …show more content…
This company has made a grave mistake by releasing this commercial that will take some time to come back from, if ever. The communication of this ad should have clearly been thought out more. Clearly, using a white celebrity such as Kendall Jenner was not a good idea. Through -out the entire advertisement, it demonstrated the beauty and skill sets. Instead of using a white person to be the main source of the commercial, it would have been more received if using someone that clearly understood and made it clear what the black lives matter movement was all about. Being the CEO of the company, if trying to make a statement with so much controversy today, I would have made a team of different ethnic groups and joined together with ideas from each to make a great and a meaningful advertisement that would unite
Many people enjoy the new car smell just as much as the actual new car. In today’s society there is a wide variety of companies and different brands to choose from. Companies have to advertise their products in a way that would stand out to the intended audience. The commercial for the 2017 Lexus LC adequately persuades its target audience, which is both male and female teenagers and adults, to take an interest in their product.
Allstate Insurance makes itself notable by employing a commercial that divulges a short story of the consequences that a distraught teenage driver can inflict while on the road. Its use of various visual and verbal elements makes the advertisement acutely effective since it seizes the audience’s attention with colorful and amusing displays, while alerting them to the dangers of uninsured vehicles in a memorable way. Moreover, the commercial’s tactful use of several fallacies serves to distract and humor the audience into being swayed by the company’s claims. In short, the advertisement combines all these tools into making an effective, persuasive, and interesting campaign.
Persuasion is found all around us there is always someone trying to persuade you into doing something. For the Nabisco’s Oreo Commerical they are trying to persuade you to buy their cookies. To get their viewers to buy their product they use rhetorical principles. Within the Oreo commercial they use a question which do you like better, the cookie or the cream. The 2013 Super Bowl Oreo Commerical is effective for all ages of viewers.
In this generation businesses use commercial to persuade different types of audiences to buy their product or to persuade them to help a certain caused. If you analyze commercial you can see how certain things play a major role in the success of a commercial. The ad I decide to analyze as an example is the commercial snickers used during the Super Bowl in 2010;”Betty White”-Snickers. This commercials starts off with guys playing a game of football with an elderly women know as Betty White. As Betty White tries to play football she is tackled to the ground. Her teammates refer to her as Mike when they come up to her to ask why she has been “playing like Betty White all day”. This helps inform the audience that Betty White is not actually playing but instead represent another teammate. As the guys keep arguing Mikes girlfriend calls her over and tells her to eat a snicker. Betty White takes the first bite and then suddenly a man appears in her place ready to finish the game. At the end of the commercial the statement "You're not you when you're hungry" is shown followed by the Snickers bar logo. What this commercial is trying to show is that hunger changes a person, and satisfying this hunger can change you back to your normal self. They use different types
Jessica Simpson’s weight watchers advertisement depicts a woman’s woman. By using a celebrity with many accomplishments, the ad shows that even incredible women can benefit from using this product. The ad starts out with Jessica Simpson mentioning that she has had two children and that she loves her body no matter what, but that even then she likes her body better now (after using weight watchers’ diet). Though most women cannot relate to her as a celebrity, many can relate to her as a mother, and even more can relate to wanting to feel thinner which in our society is equated to being attractive. Jessica Simpson says that she loves her body, but then says that she does like her slimmer shape, and sort of suggest to the viewer feel like their
It is very common among the United States’ political sphere to rely heavily on T.V. commercials during election season; this is after all the most effective way to spread a message to millions of voters in order to gain their support. The presidential election of 2008 was not the exception; candidates and interest groups spent 2.6 billion dollars on advertising that year from which 2 billion were used exclusively for broadcast television (Seelye 2008.) Although the effectiveness of these advertisements is relatively small compared to the money spent on them (Liasson 2012), it is important for American voters to think critically about the information and arguments presented by these ads. An analysis of the rhetoric in four of the political campaign commercials of the 2008 presidential election reveals the different informal fallacies utilized to gain support for one of the candidates or misguide the public about the opposing candidate.
One of my favorite commercials to watch is the Chick-Fil-A commercials. Their commercials are very ironic but at the same time interesting and entertaining. The main purpose of their commercial is to persuade an audience to go and buy their product or maybe convince an audience to come back again and buy more of their product. They are able to influence their audience through the use of rhetorical elements. Rhetorical elements include: the rhetor, discourse, audience, and rhetorical triangle. Their commercials don’t necessarily target one particular audience, they incorporate different ideas into their commercial to target different audiences such as families, and football fans.
The commercial that I chose as my favorite commercial from the night was the Colgate Save Water commercial. The creators of the advertisement used all three of the modes of persuasion: logos, ethos, and pathos to appeal to the target audience. Knowing that over 100 million people would be tuning in to view the Super Bowl game as well as the commercials, the creators knew what appealing approach to take regarding the audience.
Advertisements are all over the place. Whether they are on TV, radio, or in a magazine, there is no way that you can escape them. They all have their target audience who they have specifically designed the ad for. And of course they are selling their product. This is a multi billion dollar industry and the advertiser’s study all the ways that they can attract the person’s attention. One way that is used the most and is in some ways very controversial is use of sex to sell products. For me to analyze this advertisement I used the rhetorical triangle, as well as ethos, pathos, and logos.
In this commercial we have ethos, logos, and pathos present. First of all, ethos are established because Kim Kardashian comes out. She is a rising artist and a
sport celebrities in their ads to entice the viewer. Consumers are encouraged to embrace the characteristics of the sturdy, tough, and swift, athlete through the product. Airing their commercials on sport networks makes for an outstanding target market for a merchandiser.
The first element of the rhetorical structure and possibly the strongest in this documentary is pathos. Pathos refers to the emotion exhibited throughout the documentary. Food, Inc. is filled with an array of colors, sounds, stories, and images that all appeal to emotion. Miserable images of cows being slaughtered with dark music in the background, pictures of industrial factories with no sun and unhappy workers, and even a depressing and eye-opening home video of a young boy who was killed by the disease as a result of bad food were all portrayed throughout Food, Inc. Barbara Kowalcyk, mother of the late Kevin, is an advocate for establishing food standards with companies throughout the nation. When asked about her sons death, she replied, “To watch this beautiful child go from being perfectly healthy to dead in 12 days-- it was just unbelievable that this could happen from eating food.” (Food, Inc.) Obviously very devastated and still heartbroken over her loss, Kowalcyk fought
Creators want their commercials, tv shows, movies or articles to draw the audience in. They strive to get your attention using ethos, pathos and logos. A Nike commercial with LeBron James as the star did just that. The commercial about following through with your dreams and becoming big out of nowhere is spine chilling and inspiring.
This is a compare and contrast rhetorical analysis paper focusing on a print billboard advertisement and television commercial. The billboard advertisement is centered on a smoking death count, sponsored by several heart research associations. In addition, the television Super Bowl commercial illustrates how irresistible Doritos are, set in an ultrasound room with a couple and their unborn child. The following paragraphs will go in depth to interpret the pathos, logos, and ethos of both the billboard and the television advertisements.
In a pepsi ad in 2017, Kendall Jenner appear in the ad handing a pepsi can to a policeman while protest were going on about Black Lives Matter.The commercial starts with a Black Lives matter protest and kendall jenner notices and she goes to the protest and hands one of the officers there a pepsi and he drinks it and after everyone is celebrating. Many got offended saying that just because she is rich an famous doesn’t mean she can solve the black lives matter issue with a pepsi can.Pepsi got a lot of hate for this ad. People were boycotting all pepsi product because of this. Pepsi finally took down the ad and everything wasn't completely back to normal people are still mad and disappointed at pepsi for even thinking the ad was a good idea.
