    The advertisement has a very good focal point. When first viewing the advertisement, you are immediately drawn to the photo of the man standing on top of the skyscraper. This photo supports the key message of the ad: that your business can stand out in Rancho Cucamonga. The ad is mostly readable. The color scheme of the ad provides good contrast between the text and the background. For example, the lavender text of the message of the ad can be easily seen on the blue background of the photo. The ad also exhibits good symmetry. The top of the ad focuses on grabbing the reader’s attention, while the bottom of the ad tries to persuade the reader using detailed proof. This use of symmetry also makes the ad look well organized. The preferred audience, corporations looking to relocate, may be more drawn to the ad due to its organization.…

    The advertisement uses many different sizes and colors within the whole image. The top Cover Girl is in the light green color reflecting back to the idea of softness and it is the vantage point for a person’s eyes. It is very bold and automatically draws attention to the top half of the advertisement. Also, the different very black and dark bold text at the bottom of the page seems intriguing for a few reasons. First, the different font types and sizes attempt to make you really see the first three lines very clearly and get an understanding of what the product is. However, the work “new” happens to be in green followed by “natureluxe silk foundation” with “luxe” being bolded, suggesting that this product is truly “luxury touched by nature;” which is in very small print right below that as well. In addition, I find it interesting that the two black bolded lines both have the word “air” in them and also soft, air-like words, such as “fresh” and “breath.” To me this is suggesting that even though the text may be dark and bold, this product is still going to make the user feel fresh and…

    The tone used to convey the message is a very serious one, as made evident by the stern expression on the male modeling for the picture, as well as the lack of color. The image does not ask any questions, instead choosing to instill its message with facts and a command, relying on the viewer to both use their logic to think about how their actions could impact others, and to listen to the advice given by the ad which comes from a trusted source. Through this analysis, one can gather that the advertisers are using logos and ethos to appeal to the viewer. When all this is considered, the message given through the straight, black and white font has a deeper impact,…

    In the middle of the advertisement light is used to make the middle stand out. The dark shadowy background creates a feel of darkness and crime. The colours that are used in the advertisement are black, white and a dark blue. These three colours symbolise death, evil, strength, power, peace, trust, purity and seriousness. A lot of crime series have a lot of murderers that have killed many innocent people. The ‘good guys’ use a lot of power and strength to solve the case. All different colours symbolise different emotions which can have a positive or negative…

    The video ad projects itself as the phone for everyone. There are screenshots from people all over the world with every ethnicity, culture and creed the heavens have ever conceived. There is a same-sex male couple in the early part of the scenes. They are dressed in two stellar tuxedos shown leaving the courthouse hand in hand. Although there was no formal wedding of the two men per say, it can be confidently assumed that they were just married based on the framing of context clues in the scene. The ad also features one couple in particular who are not a same-sex couple, but are Black American and elderly. These two are shown joyfully riding a County-Fair carousel having just celebrated their recent union. In fact, this next individual was not getting married at all. This young teenage girl is shown taking photos of her party’s recent marriage celebration with the camera panning to show people of all backgrounds partaking in the moment. These examples bare evidence that the video ad’s intended first impression on viewers is that the phone is for everyone because everyone from all walks of life is…

    In the advertisement there is just one model. He is placed in a very dominating position at the foreground of the ad. Because he is the sole model and he is also in a very dominating position, almost leaning into you, your attention is automatically directed towards him. When one looks at the model one gets a sense of modern adventure and navigating through the modern day world. He is obviously an adventurer, successful, rich and is a very independent man that only depends upon himself.…

    The advertisement is composed of two parts equally. On the left side, it is a portrait of a female celebrity with a serious facial expression. On the right side, it is a question written in large font with a small text and an image of a crib below it. The question is: “Not really the way you pictured your first crib, huh?” The crib has a simple design. The advertisement is basically black and white with a touch of a hot pink color. This color only appears in the name of the organization, which is at the bottom of the portrait, and parts of the question.…

    I liked the idea of picking an ad that had such a clear message that there was no need to include text to further explain the message. I think it adds strength to the message and makes a bolder impression on the reader or audience. I think the props used in this photo are so simple yet so powerful, if you look there really isn’t a whole lot of things going on in the photo, it’s pretty simple yet the message is so striking. I think the simplicity really adds to the overall theme and…

Phones down, please.” The layout and color of the phones on the bar counter are put in that spot to make a glass shape, The company shows all three different appeals mostly trying to persuade buyers. Guinness has made an ad that puts a twist on everyday objects and phrases, uses colors of phones to create an image, and uses appeals to persuade people into getting a stout.…
