The You Tube Ads

First, this commercial uses pathos. When pathos is used there is a lot of emotion that people feel when watching this video. The dog is very sad when the owner leaves to go out and drink with friends that night. After the owner left the dog just laid around the house and waited for the owner to walk through the door. The dog whimpering while waiting for the owner to return compares to a parent or friend waiting for someone to return home.

Budweiser is known for creating advertisements that convey messages that you wouldn’t otherwise tie with beer. In one of their more popular commercials “Lost Dog”, they attempt to show that your “buds” will always have your back, just as Budweiser will always be there for you. Budweiser managed to relate this life lesson to their notable company and a wide-range of viewers. In the “Lost Dog” commercial they successfully persuade viewers to buy their beer with the use of rhetorical appeals including ethos and pathos, while also lacking in the third appeal logos.

That is for the “Incredibites” brand as well. The story of the ad is being implied that if you’re small dog eats the Beneful incredibites that it will be just as healthy and strong as the dog in the ad, and be able to do what he’s doing too. The advertisers construct the audience by using the little strong dog by pulling the wagon of the dog food it eats in it, and that’s what makes the dog capable to do so by eating the dog food.

Budweiser has produced many commercials for marketing purposes. However, none of those are as iconic as the one they used to pay tribute to the victims of the September 11. Known as the Budweiser commercial, some of the television viewers only had a chance to watch it from YouTube because it was aired just one time February 3, 2002, during the Super Bowl. The one-minute commercial shows the iconic Budweiser Clydesdales moving to New York City (Taylor, 2016). They then show a sign of respect to the victims by bowing before the lower Manhattan skyline. Choosing to use a commercial

Super Bowl 50 brought in 115 million viewers to watch the game, which makes for a great opportunity for businesses to promote their product or service. With there being so many commercials airing during the super bowl each business must make their commercial stand out the most. “Wiener Stampede” is very ingenious as it persuades people that like dogs to use there condiments.

In the 2015 Budweiser’s “Lost Puppy” commercial, we immediately see a special bond between a dog, owner, and horse. The commercial starts off with the relationship between the horse and dog, and how they don’t want to be separated. Throughout the making of Budweiser commercials, Budweiser has created a strong connection with puppies. Budweiser has used the puppy to create a story line to create more than one advertisement. The commercial then gets to our emotions when the puppy goes missing after jumping into the back of a

First of all, through the persuasive appeals, the advertisement shows the new mothers the importance of giving their child a companion that will grow old with them. Second, through the language and sound, the company targets their audiences on an emotional level by letting them know that they are devoted to their customers. Finally, in the appeal strategies, being youthful is one of the many ways that IAMS gets their customers to buy their products especially with this specific target audience. This advertisement has done a fantastic job of targeting their audience and persuading them into not only buying their product once, but buying it for their dog’s

The commercial has excellent Kairos. As Americans, the Super Bowl is the closest thing to a cultural event that we can claim. A Budweiser commercial during the Super Bowl is already going to have extreme effectiveness. Beer and football is already a perfect mixture, but they add puppies which basically demonstrates all three of the things American’s love the most. Budweiser knows exactly what they are doing while targeting the Super Bowl audience. Not only are

The commercial portrays two manly men in the masculine environment driving on an all-terrain vehicle in the jungle, battling snakes and shooting lasers to each other. The main idea of the commercial is that used to be feminine diet drink is made by Dr. Pepper “not for women.” The language used in the commercial triggers emotions in younger males saying them

Even though the scenes were quick, the viewer could get a sense of all of the feelings happening within the video. Each scene contributes to the boy and his dogs life and the journey that they are taking. One thing that makes this commercial more fascinating is how the scenes could represent a persons life. Life goes so fast and you need to savor all of the memories that you create as a child. The directors choice to show the progression of the boy and dogs life is important because it shows how the dogs loyalty is constant throughout their life. From when they were little to when they grew up, the dog has always come when called, gave all of his love, and made amazing memories to commemorate life. In the first few scenes they both start out very young. They both begin life, new to the world and not as smart as they will become later in life. As they grow they grow and mature together. They experience fun and great days and they also experience hard patches. But, no matter what they always help each other get through it. However, as the boy gets older so does the dog. That is the way life works. But there is one difference. The boy gets stronger and begins to reach his peak in life, whereas the dog gets older and weaker because dogs age faster than

First of all, the commercial has accomplished successfully of building its ethos (credibility). The ad is made by ASPCA (American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals), a non-profit organization that receives monthly donations for saving animals from being abused or ignored. (Wikipedia) From ASPCA’s website, you can find its organizational structures, annual financial statements, policies and positions, etc. It provides a transparent way to process and broadcast organization resources. By doing this, for a person who is trying to donate, he/she can make sure the money is spent for a good reason.

In February 2015, Budweiser released a commercial named “Lost Dog.” Unlike many other commercials, “Lost Dog” tells a story of an incredible friendship between two different animals. This friendship successfully catches the audience’s attention and captures their hearts. The commercial effectively persuades the audience to purchase their beer through the use of pathos, logos, and ethos. Although Budweiser uses the fallacy of non-sequitur, the commercial still works in their favor to prove their point. Through the use of different rhetorical strategies, Budweiser’s commercial was able to triumphantly make their audience feel several emotions in just one minute.

The color gives a fun an youthful appeal. The heading is a supposed quote from the pup stating, “I enjoy licking faces. And toilets’ -Koji.” This ad also has a slightly medical appeal as it has the medical cross right at the top of the advertisement. This ad appeals to logos in the fact that it is promoting a product that boosts the immunity of your pet because “dogs will put their mouths on anything” and “every dog has his can” so this ad is saying that in order to protect your dog, pick this product, and that you can pin point which food to buy based on the buyer’s dog’s specific needs. This ad also appeals to pathos as it mentions that this food is going to not only be tasty for your dog but also have the healthy ingredients needed in order to protect them, letting the buys know they are making the right choice fro their animal by buying this product.

The ad uses pathos, a rhetoric strategy to target the emotions of its viewers, by using a smoking toddler as the focus of it. Seeing a young child smoking a cigar will draw the attention of viewers of any age, gender, or race. The image will cause its audience to investigate the purpose of the ad. It makes people feel sorrow for the young, innocent child that doesn’t know what he is doing, and to feel disgust for his parents for their irresponsibility. Like most of their ads, PETA caused a lot of controversy with this image. Not only did people feel sad for the child but they were outraged at the ridiculous image. Now that PETA has their attention, they will investigate the purpose of the image. Its purpose could be of many things including: secondhand smoke, insufficient parenting, or cancer. When looking closer, they realize that the ad is meant to stop them and their children from eating animals by claiming that it results in the same physical diseases as smoking does. What they don’t realize is that using such outrageous content is how PETA gets their message across; The more controversial, the more people will talk about it and the more light that gets shed on the purpose of their organization.
