In the sprite commercial they are, they are going to show you famous people and trying to show you how a sprite is a good drink.

This advertisement was played during the Super Bowl, so the Snickers company knew how important it was to make a great advertisement in order to keep the audience as entertained as possible. Since the Super Bowl is always such a big event, it would have the potential to draw millions of new customers. The incorporation of football in this advertisement keeps the attention of viewers, while showing off the Ethos and Pathos appeals to get the Snickers Candy Bar the endorsement they desired. Although Snickers is a very popular brand of candy already, utilizing the chosen celebrities and the time in which they aired it, adds to the desire of a Snickers Candy Bar.
1. Consider Coca-Cola’s advertising throughout its history. Identify as many commonalities as possible for its various ads and campaigns. (For a list of Coca-Cola slogans over the years, check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coca-Colaslogans.)
The appeal to ethos, or the tone of the speaker, is used very well in this commercial. Kevin Durant and Dwyane Wade are both professional basketball players and are both “stars” of their opposing teams. These characters don’t convince the audience that Gatorade products are actually good or anything. It makes the audience want to buy or use the product simply because professional athletes used them and seem to need them to get better. The use of these two athletes sets a good tone on the commercial and will help them sell products. It also
The athletes are getting less calories by drinking Gatorade instead of any other sports drink. They are still getting the full taste of the Gatorade but with less calories. The advertisement implies that drinking Gatorade will give you all the energy you need, and it will allow consumers to be great like Dwayne Wade. The water droplets on the Gatorade makes the drink look appetizing, and makes you want to taste it even more. Along with these techniques Gatorade uses the rhetorical device ethos to get consumers to purchase the
However the commercial shows that gatorade is a critical part to success. As long as you work hard and of course, consume their products which not only leads to hydration, but also prepares you to work harder, you will me more like a professional athlete. The method that the Gatorade commercial uses is very simple but very effective. This method is using big names in sports such as Lebron James, Richard Sherman, and others in commercials that air during sporting events. The reason why this tactic is so effective is because the audience that Gatorade is targeting is watching a commercial during a break from an NBA game. All Gatorade has to do then is air a commercial about basketball and they have the watcher’s
Coca-Cola has been around for 125 years with the same logo, taste, and design. Making it one of the most recognizable brands in the world. Coca-Cola’s “Mean Joe Greene” commercial was an iconic Super Bowl XIV commercial in 1980. In this commercial, their goal was to persuade the audience that a bottle of coke can bring happiness and a smile. By choosing a notorious football icon, Mean Joe Greene, to play the mean guy was a great choice. Mean Joe Greene is a hall of fame defensive end football player from the 1970’s. He was known for his temper and cruelty on the field. Thus, the name Mean Joe Greene. He was an excellent football player which is why people loved and still love him till this day. By using all three rhetorical concepts, logos (appealing to reasoning), pathos (appealing to emotion), and ethos (appealing to credibility), Coke creates a motto that persuades its audience to “Have a Coke and a Smile”.
“Sports drinks such as Gatorade promise better athletic performance, but in some cases they’re not really necessary. Water does the trick in many cases” (Kent). Gatorade is the most commonly sought after sports drink by athletes. Gatorade uses effective advertising to encourage consumers to buy their product. With the use of professional athletes and other celebrities, Gatorade’s ads persuade people everywhere their product is superior to consuming water. In this ad, Gatorade uses Dwyane Wade-who is a professional basketball player-to showcase their product. Wade is drinking Gatorade while in his Chicago Bulls uniform, showing Gatorade’s customers that he uses it to play well. Gatorade is willing to spend “...near-nine-figure…” amounts of money to persuade customers that drinking Gatorade is highly beneficial (“Who

Bill Backer first starts off by using logos in “I’d like to buy the world a Coke.” Bill Backer starts the commercial with white adolescent Americans singing, the first verse says “I’d like to buy the world a home and furnish it with love,” using that phrase
Gatorade has been sponsoring the NFL for many years, starting in 1968. Its involvement with the sport has made the drink known to many today “The official drink of the NFL” (Gatorade). According to Naomi Klein “…the wave of mergers in the corporate world over the last few years is a deceptive phenomenon: it only looks as if the giants, by joining forces, are getting bigger and bigger”(4). And that is exactly what the corporation of Gatorade was trying to carry out. By joining its name with the NFL, which at that time was becoming a famous sport to watch, Gatorade has become the number one sport drink for athletes. In the “Peyton Manning-Gatorade Commercial”, the corporation of Gatorade is not only selling their product, but is also
Cox believes that attention must be drawn to Squirt 's advertising and promotion plan. Both topics were addressed in a June 2001 presentation by the brand 's advertising agency, Foote, Cone & Belding. Following a review of U.S. Census 2000 statistics, Squirt consumption data, and its own and Dr Pepper/Seven Up research, Foote, Cone & Belding proposed a refinement in Squirt 's target market and positioning which had previously been aimed at 18- 34 year olds. Through research that featured Squirt 's consumption by racial/ethnic group and age relative to carbonated soft drink users, Foote, Cone & Belding recommended that Squirt target a multicultural, 18-24 year old segment in order to tap into this heavy carbonated soft drink user segment. The total sales broken down by racial/ethnic groups can be seen below.

"Image is nothing, thirst is everything." This is a slogan used by the soft drink Sprite. It tells a consumer not to buy a product because of the labeling, packaging, or the way it is presented, but to instead buy it because it tastes good. This seems to be an honest and open statement, not what you would expect to hear in an advertisement. Ironically though, just before this slogan flashes on the screen, Kobe Bryant and Grant Hill, two of the NBA's rising starts, are shown talking about how wonderful Sprite is. This slogan contradicts what the rest of the advertisement says, and it contradicts what the advertisement industry tries to do in general. The use of sports icons in advertisements for the food industry, especially those
What could possibly be more American than apple pie, baseball or the anonymous World War II kiss? Coca- Cola, of course! Coke’s strong pathos resonates as a symbol of America’s golden years. The Coke bottle montage adorned in pictures of unforgettable American events, artists and past times embodies what it truly means to be American. To be American means to take pride in your country and represent as a unit, not as an individual. All the components that have compose this montage grasp the concept of American patriotism.
When my family moved away from the place I grew up I began to have a major problem with my weight; I turned to food to comfort me. I somehow felt secure while eating and because of that psychological reassurance I got from the food, I was soon over weight. I knew I had to do something but that urgency would die when I would be introduced to a new flavor of Brewster’s ice cream or a limited time only supreme large fries that I saw advertised on the television or in a magazine. My self esteem and body-image suffered a great amount during those years of constant struggle. As I looked at pictures of celebrities, athletes, average people, friends, my sister and then myself, I noticed something, all of them were thin except me. After this and
