Ad Analysis Project In today’s culture, advertisements have an enormous impact on people’s day to day life. It teaches individuals what is morally upright, acceptable, and what is the “item to buy”. I believe that this Thai commercial (Best Advertisement ever) displays how humanity should be. The advertisement shows how a man helps a plant grow, a woman get her cart over a curb, gives some food to a stray dog, and gives money to young, homeless girl every day. He continually does this with nothing in return until one day he sees the young girl coming back from school. The man had helped her pay to go to school. Although he has very little material things, he has happiness. It demonstrates what a successful life needs to be in society. This advertisement gets its point across through the audience it’s speaking to, context, purpose, tone, arrangement, scale, text, and colors. The audience targeted for this advertisement is young, Thai, adults who dedicate their lives to be the best they can be. The company that is being advertised is life insurance. It wants the audience to …show more content…

The context of this advertisement is a young man who is continually helping those around him. Although he does not live a luxurious life with giving everything he has away, he is happy and that is what matters most. I believe that the purpose of using this context for life insurance advertisement is telling the public that their company receives nothing and gives all everything they have to their customers. For example, symbolism is used through the young, Thai man to demonstrate that the company is the man and the people he helps is the company’s clients. “Thai Life Insurance” is speaking to the Siamese telling them they are a giving company whose desire is to help others. The context and purpose of the advertisement is the big picture while the tone and arrangement is the underlying

  • Rhetorical Analysis On Feeding America

    1024 Words  | 3 Pages

    The impact of the video is strong, because it covers common ground. The video portrays the child returning home from school and immediately searching for food. Many children in America endure this every day. The creator also uses many zoomed in views of random objects, which vaguely fails to tie the video together. This method is ineffective because the different point-of-views exaggerate the contents of the house and draws the viewer’s attention to the fact that the family is middle-classed, which means they are probably not suffering from poverty. The dominant figure—the boy—seems to have on nice, clean clothing. This tells the spectators that the family can at least provide necessities for themselves. Furthermore, from the handmade pictures on the refrigerator and the finger paintings on the wall, the viewers can conclude that they are family-oriented; however, there are no parents in sight. The logic flounders because there is indeed food in the refrigerator. The impact would have been more effective if there had been less food or even no food. Overall, the commercial is simple, easy, and effective. It portrays the problem at hand and then presents a solution. The viewers can easily discern that the video is about child hunger. The tactics that the composer uses ultimately evokes compassion from the audience. The ad has appealed to pathos and ethos and has solidified the ad. The subdued colors and the somber music have depicted how earnest the video is. In just 60 seconds, AdCouncil and Feeding America have effectively broadcasted their world hunger relief

  • Analysis Of Coca Cola Advertisement

    1033 Words  | 3 Pages

    This advertisement most likely wants a universal audience so it does not try to appeal to a certain status or rating. It gives no sense of appeal to thrift or savings. This advertisement is most likely aimed at all consumers. The ladybug that was mentioned in the previous paragraph might even signal that they are trying to appeal to a younger audience as well. On the right side of this Coca-Cola advertisement, besides the Coke bottle, the creators have placed a quote that says, “open a Coke, open happiness”. This quote appeals to the consumers emotions because they try to infer that by drinking a Coke you, the consumer, will become happier. In the background they purposely made it look joyful to give a happy feel to the advertisement. The tone of this advertisement would have to be joyfull. Considering the creators most likely trying to portray to a universal audience, they want all consumers to take note of this advertisement and have no one excluded from purchasing their products. I don’t believe this advertisement is trying to offend anyone. In the Coca-Cola advertisement it tries to grab people's attention with its imagery, color, emotional appeals, plain folk, and loaded language. Loaded language is also a persuasive strategy. Advertisers use loaded language to include words in their advertisement that have a positive or negative meaning to help explain the advertisement or product. “In many cases, the shopper has been prepared for the shopping experience by lush, colorful print advertisements, thirty-second television minidramas, radio jingles, and coupon promotions.
