The message conveyed throughout the advertisement is simply representing humanity, our hunt for adventure, our curiosity into the unknown, and our various passions in life.

To illustrate, Robin Williams states, “... but poetry, beauty, romance, love, these are what we stay alive for.” while showing people dancing and enjoying their lives, expressing their fondness. This manifests that Apple utilizes a powerful technique to draw the audience's attention and portray its message in a deeper sense. Moreover, this exhibits that living is something beautiful in its own way. The images and words reflect off each other as the narrator is speaking represents its effectiveness to exemplify its message. “ … we read and write poetry because we are members of the human race.” This clarifies that we make our own paths in our life and reflect off our own experiences of the past to become better.

The final and the strongest appeal in the advertisement is pathos, the appeal to emotions. Throughout the ad sick children are being shown and getting treated by a doctor or nurse. Showing the family and children laying down on beds who are being diagnosed for cancer. By showing these images the audience feels a sense of loss, fear, pain and grief, even though they do not personally know the children. Also, by not helping these children the audience might feel
Whenever you drive down the road you see an ad. Whenever you’re on your phone or watching T.V. you will see ads. Ads are all around you wherever you go; it is close to impossible to go a day without seeing one single ad. All ads have one specific purpose, and that purpose is to make viewers intrigued to buy exactly what is being advertised. Advertisers use three strategies to draw viewers to ads, pathos, logos and ethos. These deal with emotions, logic and facts, and credibility. Ads can range anywhere from just words to pictures and if you look hard enough you will be able to locate these appeals within every ad you see. Bauer uses the appeals of pathos, logos and ethos to convince viewers that their hockey stick, the Vapor APX, is far better than any of their competitor’s sticks.
In an Apple iPad Air commercial, Apple uses a quote from Dead Poets Society and shows many people doing their passion to give a message. That message is that you have the ability to do what you love, to accomplish great things in life. Apple’s use of images and words tells the audience this message, and it is very effective in doing so. The audience is left wondering what their verse will be and how they will use that verse to accomplish their dreams.
The reason for this is that from the advertisement one could sense an appeal to our sense of identity, self-interest and emotions. It added some amount of excitement and humor. A positive image was created from the video about the Papa John’s Pizza and it really made me feel persuaded to buy the pizza.
Another illustration of the music in the advert reflecting the mood of the scene is during the world cup setting. The pace of the melody picks up and the dynamics increase to show excitement, joy and energy. It gets louder and even more instruments are added. In the millennium setting, the tune is at a very fast pace with many diverse instruments all playing at the same time, which gives strong emphasis on the environment’s joyful and ecstatic setting.
Lastly, logos is at work in this advertisement but it is being used with the audience instead of the company. They must think about the topic that is being presented in the ad and the reasoning behind why someone would make an advertisement about this
This advertisement also uses major topics in today’s society to draw people in. In the first section of the commercial, it uses whale extinction and McCarthy trying to save them. Secondly, it uses deforestation and the efforts to save the trees as another environmental draw-in. In the third slot, it focuses on global warming and the melting ice caps. And lastly, the commercial uses the extinction of rhinos (K. 2017.). This establishes Ethos by showing that the company is aware of the problems in the world today. These environmental issues have been a problem for several years, and there are many people that are concerned for them. By using them to pull people in, they are opening their audience to not only people who like the outdoors, but also to people who want to be heroes.
Ferdi Rizkiyanto tries his best to lure in his audience in the illustration of his ad, to stop the use of fossil fuels in our economy. It shows the viewers real facts at what's actually happening in the world because of global warming. It uses logos by the illustration of the rising waters, melting glaciers, and stranded animals with very little room to move on the ice. Pathos is strongly represented in this ad, because it show how the animals in the arctic is stranded and affected by the melting ice, and how the humans is being affected by the rising waters, which leaves the viewers with a doleful feeling. This ad really inspires and moves people, because some people out there in the world, actually do care about our economy and ecosystem we live in. A lot of people out there in the world try their best to keep the earth clean and healthy as much as possible for their kids and future generations to come. Although their are people out there in the world who cares about global warming and taking care of the earth, some people just don't see the point in fighting over the issue of going green. Alot of people out there, care more about spending money on education, than on other resources and things, that could go towards helping out the world be a better
The song in the ad also provokes fear, yet inspiration at the same time. “Oh, my life, Is changing every day, In every possible way” (Youtube) strikes sadness and fear while “I want more, Impossible to ignore, I want more” gives you inspiration. These are the only words in the ad and have quite a long lasting emotional effect on its viewers. This ad will be remembered for many years to
The ad, for "Creatures", shows an image of a moose eating grass. On top of the ad is the text “There’s plenty of room for all God’s creatures. Right next to the mashed potatoes”. On the bottom is the text “Saskatoon: STEAKS – FISH – WILD GAME”. The theme for this advertisement is: The meat is here, eat it. The purpose for this ad is to convince the audience to eat at the Saskatoon restaurant. The intended audience for the advertisement is hunters. The image of the moose eating the grass is something hunters know they want to be eating; they can better relate and analyze the reason for them choosing the image of the moose eating the grass. The image implies that the Saskatoon
On December 31st of 1983 an eccentric commercial was introduced, challenging other companies and awaking people all over the country. It has been more than 30 years and people are still talking about Apple’s first Macintosh commercial. Companies use commercials to show the audience that their products are worth buying like Apple did in its first Macintosh commercial. By using themes from George Orwell’s 1984, Apple was able to speak volumes about its product without showing or describing it. Apple visualizes its self as the hero that will save the world and people believed it. Most of us now own an Apple brand. This advertisement is an effective ad because it contains a valuable message that was provided to the viewer by using contrasting visuals and it is about awakening the people and breaking the chains of similarity and loving to be different. Yet, it is ironic because Apple has become one of the most controlling companies in our society.
It makes people believe by relating to successful people that even though you fail, you can still be successful. This is main point that the commercial wants you to take home, success is achieved through a long path of
All of these persuasive attributes in the image assume that the audience viewing this ad are interested in the long-term goal of preserving the planet through digital technology for the sake of our future children and
Not all advertisers do such a great job at taking their point across in an ad. Sometimes there are those ads that you can stare at endlessly, trying to figure out what it is trying to persuade you of buying, but you never understand
When we see a commercial on our T.V. screens today, we always see in print or hear the narrator telling us that their product or the service they are promoting to us is one of the best of its kind. They use all types of appeals and techniques to reel us in, making whatever they are trying to sell to us either pretty, shiny, worth-buying, or they use bold simple states telling us things such as, “Once you get it, you won’t be able to live without it.” By using these statements and methods of gaining viewers, the ad or commercial gains what it truly aspired for; attention and the need and/or desire to buy the product. In the ad “Bounty Big Spills” the bold statement and exaggerated visuals are created to
