Chrysler’s commercial stands out against other car commercials because of its unique filming style. Rather than showing facts about the car, they give you a story. A story about the importance of the car in a broader sense than “it drives well.” The commercial starts with different shots of Detroit, Michigan. In the beginning, a dark filter fills the screen making Detroit look gloomy. While the shots are being shown, a voice describes the hard working people of Detroit. The camera spins around a steel fist while the narrator states, “It’s the hottest fires that make the hardest steal.” The commercial then shows the car for the first time as the narrator says, “Hard work, conviction, and the know-how that runs generations deep in every last …show more content…
The narrator states, “It’s probably not the one you’ve been reading in the papers, the one being written by folks who’ve never even been here. They don’t know what we are capable of because when it comes to luxury, it’s as much about where it’s from as who it’s for.” They are using a persuasive technique called syncrisis. Syncrisis is used to compare and contrast in parallel clauses. The company is refraining from arguing with journalists by redefining what the paper about Detroit truly means. The narrator is shrugging off the negative image Detroit has by stating where these opinions of the city are coming from. He’s telling the audiences that the opinions made by the paper are false and unknowing of the true Detroit. By doing this, two things have been gained by Chrysler. First, Chrysler is gaining the respect from citizens of Detroit. By raising Detroit up with enticing words and speaking as though they are a part of the city, citizens of Detroit make a connection with the company. Second, it’s gaining a broader audience of people outside of Michigan by having them step away from the media’s image of Detroit and persuading them to see Detroit in a different light, as a city that has survived tough times, who’s people work hard and one that has evolved into an innovative

In 102 Minutes, Chapter 7, authors Dwyer and Flynn use ethos, logos, and pathos to appeal to the readers’ consciences, minds and hearts regarding what happened to the people inside the Twin Towers on 9/11. Of particular interest are the following uses of the three appeals.
“The Onion’s” mock press release on the MagnaSoles satirical article effectively attacks the rhetorical devices, ethos and logos, used by companies to demonstrate how far advertisers will go to convince people to buy their products. It does this by using manipulative, “scientific-sounding" terminology, comparisons, fabrication, and hyperboles.
Advertisements are constructed to be compelling; nonetheless, not all of them reach their objective and are efficient. It is not always easy to sway your audience unless your ad has a reliable appeal. Ads often use rhetoric to form an appeal, but the appeals can be either strong or weak. When you say an ad has a strong rhetorical appeal, it consists of ethos, pathos, logos, and Kairos. Advertisers use these appeals to cohere with their audience. Nike is known to be one of the leading brands of the sports shoes and apparel. It holds a very wide sector of followers around the world. In the Nike ad, Nike uses a little boy watching other basketball players play, and as the kid keeps growing, his love for basketball keeps growing. Eventually, he
The tone during the whole plot of in Brave New World changes when advancing throughout the plot, but it often contains a dark and satiric aspect. Since the novel was originally planned to be written as a satire, the tone is ironic and sarcastic. Huxley's sarcastic tone is most noticeable in the conversations between characters. For instance, when the director was educating the students about the past history, he states that "most facts about the past do sound incredible (Huxley 45)." Through the exaggeration of words in the statement of the director, Huxley's sarcastic tone obviously is portrayed. As a result of this, the satirical tone puts the mood to be carefree.
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.

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.
“People who had incurred the displeasure of the party simply disappeared and were never heard of again.
The focus of the camera in the flashback to 1994 shows us that it is an actual shot from the 1990’s due to the poor quality of the image. The characters are also sitting in the same relative order in the car as they were in the set of the show. This similarity is on purpose. The television show seating arrangement is recreated in the car and is paired with similar dialogue to compare the two situations and realize that they are very similar. The use of focus here is much like the use of dialogue. The first shot of the car is when the car is coming to a stop at the stoplight. We get a quick view of the sleek black and white exterior. The only other time that we get to see the outside of the car is after the dialogue has finished and the light at the stoplight turns from red to green, and they proceed to drive away. The colors of the written text in the commercial match the colors of the car. The colors are crisp and inverse of each other, making them jut out. Besides the text and the car matching, the colors also match the color of the companies logo. These colors are carefully chosen to make the car look sleek, elegant and pleasing to the

Through capturing these events and images in the minds of his audience, Obama writes, “Those stories – of survival, and freedom, and hope – became our story, my story; the blood that had spilled was our blood, the tears our tears; until this black church, on this bright day, seemed once more a vessel carrying the story of a people into future generations and into a larger world” (14). Obama’s references of biblical and historical events which are known today from history as powerful stories of difficulty and perseverance is used to describe the struggles of racial inequality. As racial inequality itself is a huge problem which creates separation between races even till today, Obama’s allusion to these events match well with putting into perspective
...ct that 30 seconds later this powerful, beautiful car overcomes all evils by outrunning everyone in chase, lends a certain feeling of power to the viewer, makes us wish that we too, could do that. Unlike the Budweiser commercial, this video text does not sell the idea of America working, or the system working, instead it sells a dream, a fantasy. America may not work, in fact you may be out in the middle of the desert being chased down, but as long as you have this faithful 300ZX, you will be in control of your life.
In 1729, Jonathan Swift published a pamphlet called “A Modest Proposal”. It is a satirical piece that described a radical and humorous proposal to a very serious problem. The problem Swift was attacking was the poverty and state of destitution that Ireland was in at the time. Swift wanted to bring attention to the seriousness of the problem and does so by satirically proposing to eat the babies of poor families in order to rid Ireland of poverty. Clearly, this proposal is not to be taken seriously, but merely to prompt others to work to better the state of the nation. Swift hoped to reach not only the people of Ireland who he was calling to action, but the British, who were oppressing the poor. He writes with contempt for those who are oppressing the Irish and also dissatisfaction with the people in Ireland themselves to be oppressed.

Smiling faces, beautiful women and “American made” were the typical elements in advertisements during this decade. DDB’s first “big idea” behind the campaign was no different; The main goal was to make the Volkswagen more American by shooting Suzy Parker standing next to a Volkswagen. It wasn’t until after visiting the production line and watching the step by step production of the Volkswagen did DDB strike gold with an innovate new “big idea.” What resonated with the American advertising team the most during this visit was the incredible quality control of the German factory, thus they decided on “an honest car promoted with Honesty.”
