Sprite Commercial Analysis

In my commercial LeBron James a Professional Basketball player is trying to get us the consumer to buy the product. He grabs our attention by saying “I wouldn’t tell you to drink sprite even if I was in a commercial for sprite”, While the guys in the commercial or trying to get him to say "Drink Sprite". The reason for this commercial is not to tell people what to do but give them the option to drink or try the soft drink. Sprite was introduced in the United States in 1961 by the Coca-Cola Company, with its colorless lemon and lime flavored, caffeine-free soft drink. Sprite was developed in West Germany in 1959 as Fanta Klare Zitrone which means (“Clear Lemon Fanta”) and introduced in the United States as Sprite. This soft drink was a response

to the popularity of 7 UP.
There first slogan was "I like the Sprite in You”. Toward the late 1990s most of Sprite's advertisements featured amateur and famous basketball players. The tagline for most of these ads was, "Image is nothing. Thirst is everything. Obey your thirst. “In 1994, Sprite created a newer logo that stood out from their previous logos. The main coloring of the product's new logo was blue blending into green with silver splashes, and small white bubbles were on the background of the logo.
.One of the first lyrics for the new slogan were, "Never forget yourself 'cause first things first, grab a cold, cold can, and obey your thirst".

Under the new slogan.Over the years Coca-Cola has created different flavors to satisfy their thirsty buyers but, sprite is the world most popular lemon-lime drink. In the 1990’s sprite launched their short-loved “Jooky” advert campaign. It was a 30 second television spots poked fun at other soft drinks perceived lack of authenticity, ridiculous and loyalty program. Sprite redesigned their label removing the “S” in 2009. With winning the NBA Championship against the warriors down 3-1, LeBron James and the Cavaliers had won Game 7 that was an away game and this hasn’t been done since 1978. LeBron James did the Sprite commercial to remind us that the NBA season is here. The Cavaliers champ says “Let’s get one thing straight,” “I’d never tell you to drink Sprite, even if I was in a commercial for Sprite, which I am, or you were watching it, which you are. I wouldn’t tell you to drink it no matter what that cue card says.” Sprite’s also have hip-hop artists
