We are inundated with ads all the time in society today! We need to be savvy readers and responders to this information. As we have seen in the video from last day, many of us are already distrustful of ad content and base our opinions more on what our peer groups say.

Who is the Target Audience?
How is art used in the ad to make it more appealing?
What language is used to convince you to buy the product?
How does the layout catch your eye?
What overall feeling does the ad create?

ReplyDeleteThe target audience is the young people. The ad is use the action art to make it more appealing. That uses the body language to convince me to buy the product because the products make people happy. The dancers are all black and the product is white that attract people to be aware the product. The ads create people feeling if they use this product they will happy like who dance in the ad.

ReplyDeleteThe target is audience small and big business and people. Tattoos are used in the ad to make the ad more appealing to the people watching it. It also shows the way FedEx ships to the USA. Chinese and English are use to convince you to buy the product. The things that catch my eye are how he’s so good at everything and all the different things he does. My overall feeling of this ad is supper funny. I could watch this ad for hours.

ReplyDeleteThe Target Audience are young teenagers who are into sports, but also Katy Perry. This Ad has Katy Perry in it, wearing Adidas cloths. There is no particular language used in this ad, but if there was it would be slang because they want to get the attention of all the teenagers. The layout is clear and simple. The overall feeling of the ad creates a need to buy this product because a superstar (Katy Perry) is wearing Adidas, too.

ReplyDeleteThe target audience for these ads are for males that use deodorant...Art is used in these ads to make it more interesting by adding comedy that a typical guy would find funny. The language is very comedic as well, and it makes people remember there product. The layout is very similar in each add, it gives basic details about the product but it shows the product the entire time so you will keep it in mind when you go to purchase deodorant. The overall feeling of this ad is a good choice compared to many other ads because it is comedic, and keeps people entertained while watching it.

ReplyDelete- the target audiences is the young people who likes to play online games, Xbox, and PlayStation.
- the use of guns and explosions.
- they use body language to attract more people on buying it.
- the commercial catches my eye by using real people in the game makes it more realistic.
- the ads creates excitement of playing black OPS and sometimes it creates enjoying sense of feeling knowing that you're winning.

ReplyDeleteThis ad shows a caveman finding a soda can then shakes it, and opens it, then gets soda sprayed all over his eyes, followed by a T-rex stomping on him then wiping its foot on the floor like when you have a piece of gum stuck to your shoe. I believe what this is saying is you'll look like this caveman if you drink pop instead of milk.
