The commercial endeavors to persuade the audience by using ethos with the characters and the music selection. In the commercial, La Costena ensures that the customers can relate to the mothers and the children behavior. When each mother walked into the dining room the children began to whine at their mother's, “I do not want to eat this mommy.” The children behavior towards their meal creates an emotion of sympathy on the audiences or comprehension of the mothers’ emotions when their children do not want to eat the meal they prepared. The audience may feel bad for the children to eat their meal and instead they would personally prepare them a different meal, but with the variety of flavored salsas, they do not have to prepare another meal.

Our gatekeeper called my number to tell me I was on deck.

My favorite memory at the Franklin County Fair was going the the Hairball concert after it rained all day. In front of the stage was very muddy, but that did not stop my friends and I to head to the front of the stage. By the end of the concert, all of us had mud up to our knees. We went to the cattle barn, after the concert, to wash off and ended up having a water

The presentation of the product along with convincing slogan, have made the advertisement stand out, differentiating from the others. Whilst the focal point focuses on the served porridge, it also draws attention to the blurred background where the original packet was located. The resemblance od the porridge can be depicted which directs the audience to ponder upon how the product would be served in reality. With decorations like the knitted mitten, the coffee, the spoon and the book, casually being placed around the product, helps to portray a sense of warmth and cosy vibe during the winter. However, the use of too many decorations is unavailing as it created confusion towards the audience. Making it difficult for the audience to focus on the product. With a slogan like, ‘a

This paper will examine the effectiveness of an advertisement for Giorgio Armani’s fragrance for men found in Men’s Health magazine. Focusing on the specifics of the ad, analysis will be done to depict the ins and outs of how the advertisement is conveying its message to the reader.
