Analysis Of Fiat 500 Cars
Product: Fiat 500 Car
Publication: Glamour magazine Issue: March 2017 page: 139
This advertisement is part of a campaign featured in glamour magazine called the glamour beauty festival. The festival is sponsored by car manufacturer Fiat. This advertisement is for a fiat car and appears on the pages following skin care tips and prior to the pages that contain voting for Glamour woman of the year.
The advertisement in question is for the fiat 500 car model. Notoriously this car has been aimed at the female market for its compactness and stylish features. The advertisement features a woman aged between 25 and 35, well dressed standing adjacent to the vehicle. The young woman is drinking from an old-fashioned, glass bottle of milk. She holds the bottle in her right

One bottle is missing however, and this we can assume, is the bottle in which the model is holding. The floor in which both the car and the model are placed, is grey in colour. This is to show contrast between the bright colour of the car and the dull background.
The colour of the car in the advertisement is a mint / pastel green and the female is also wearing a dress this colour. Using these spring colours ties in with the seasonal theme of the magazine in which the advertisement features.
In the top right hand corner of the advertisements reads a message printed on a foil milk bottle lid. It reads “Freshionistas, you’re going to love the unquenchable spirit that’s all bottled up in the Fiat 500. This pint-sized peak of chic offers you 13 top colours to choose from and precisely a gazillion ways to make it your own. Milk It!”.
The language used in this suggests a youthful feel to the product being advertised. The play on words such as fashionistas (freshionistas) and unquestionable (unquenchable) appeals to the youthful audience in which this advertisement is aimed

    Lexus Ad Analysis Essay

    The advertisement that I chose is for the new Lexus LS F sports car. The ad shows a car in the middle of the picture with an attractive man and woman standing on each side of the car. A dark and dimmed glass room with shadowy figures in the background gives the impression of a club or theater at night. The words “memorable performance” is largely displayed at the bottom of the advertisement. This advertisement mainly attracts men because it portrays a man driving around with an attractive woman. By using an intriguing picture, a dark background, and bold words, this ad illustrates a message that if men drive this Lexus, they are more likely to live a glamorous life.…

    With the advents of technology, advertisements depict women as desirable commodities this has poisoned the minds of many young women ultimately morphing values and beliefs. Women are shown in subordinate, submissive, and male pleasing roles. Media and advertisement representation reflects and reinforces sexism in society today. The social standards of beauty and feminism are set by Hollywood’s greatest celebrities. They do this by alluring women into buying cosmetic products affirming the concept of female beauty. Companies such as “bebe”, apply the same technique to persuade women in buying their apparel. In the ad “bebe”, the company portrays a woman holding a bright red lipstick getting off a taxi while flaunting a revealing dress. On the other side, she is shown obeying all rules, in bed with black revealing lingerie with an enticing text, “9pm to 5am obey all the rules, you miss all the fun”. The ad amplifies its message and allures its audience to disobey all the rules if they want to become “the bad girl” by purchasing “bebe’s” apparel.…

    Susan Bordo Women

    Pop-tarts Pastry Swirls by Kellogg's. What is it? Strawberry, new look? Since when did people start to care how their food looks? It' is going to end up in the toilet, I am sorry for being that open. I think this advertisement I s a counterexample of the usual ads that Bordo describes in her essay. Look at the woman! She's definitely not a model. Honestly, when I took a look at this ad, I got scared. My goodness: horribly wrinkly old lady with blue hair! Well of course there are a lot of older people out in our world, but I guess we are not so used to see them as advertisers. Let's get back to the describing. This is a progress. A couple years ago our magazines or TV's didn't even have people of older age advertising anything. There always were gorgeous models, long lags, pretty faces, muscled bodies, etc. Now we can see anything. I think we all know that women are very carrying people. They care a lot about their children, husbands, friends, and themselves at the last moment. Susan Bordo describes women as those, "who are almost never shown being fed by others." (162). But in this ad, I can tell that lady thinks about herself a lot, she's even getting her hair-cut without a hurry to go home and feed the "others." She's enjoys listening to her hair-stylist talking about the ways she would look better, smiling and most likely thinking about pop-tarts, for which she even can get money-back. Older classic lady has bright blue hair,…

    When thinking of advertisements, for some odd reason, I immediately will think of Cover Girl makeup ads that are often found in almost every woman’s magazine. However, this particular advertisement features country music superstar Taylor Swift and very similar to all of their distinctive ads focuses mostly on her face. This ad is for their new “natureluxe silk foundation- luxury touched by nature.” From this relatively simple ad, as it only contains a close up of Taylor Swift as well as text, it allows for the discussion of it’s unique aesthetics.…

    The scene of the ad takes place at night in a sky-rise apartment in some thriving metropolis. In the apartment, the drapes are for now pushed aside while a woman, perhaps in her 20s, stands straddling a man, with an indefinable age, sitting in a 60s-style chair with only his legs and forearm visible. The man holds a martini and the woman holds a drink mixer while seductively looking into the hidden face of the mystery man. The man is wearing a business suit and the woman wears the clichéd “little black dress” paired with studded black heels. Both the male and female are Caucasian. In the left foreground is the picture of the product, a Skyy Vodka bottle sitting next to a martini on a table. The main appeal to sex is made by the body language between the man and the woman, as the man’s legs are in between hers and her posture and leering facial expression scream “seductress.” Another obvious appeal to sex is the inclusion of the drapes in the upper left-hand corner, implying that they might have to be drawn a bit later. The man’s hidden face is a significant statement to his power. The missing identity and the fact that he is sitting down in an enveloping chair gives the image of the high-profile boss who is never seen. He is the Charlie and the woman is his “angel,” a subordinate especially as she is serving him a drink.…

    Primus Ad Analysis

    • 607 Words
    • 3 Pages

    The first one is cursive that says “no matter what happens” and the second font says “The day of primus with you buddies, is the day of primus with your buddies”. The purpose of the text is to tell us that no matter what’s going on in your life, drinking beer with your friends is more important. The significant of writing in two fonts is to capture our attention to the text. The text is small compared to the picture because they are trying to show the full scene. The colors used in the ad are eye catching, so whenever you pass by the ad, the colors are going to get your attention. For example in the ad, the spaceship’s strikes are neon and they create an interesting scene that catches the customer's eye. The brand color is green and it’s used multiple times in the ad; the first time is with the girl wearing the green dress which helps draw our attention to the ad because she is in the middle of the ad. The second time is used with the stacked boxes outside that has primus written on them. The third time is used with the background of the beer on the lower right side. The significance of using the color green in the ad is because color plays a huge role in…

    The Opioid Crisis

    Second of all, overdoses because of prescription drugs can affect anyone, and it causes more death than vehicle crashes. People have been more focused on making cars safer so you can basically text and drive at the same time, rather than making drugs more safe. In the article The Cost of the Opioid Crisis it states that the number of people dying because of prescription opioid is larger than those who die in motor vehicle accidents. People are still trying to make cars safer even though the opioid epidemic is now exceeding the amount of deaths. “ In 2013, though, opioids killed 16,235 people; that's approximately half as many as died in traffic accidents that year, and about 2,000 more than were murdered” (Pain medications are killing a shocking…

    When women got the ability to vote in 1920, there launched an era of the "New Woman." They shortened their skirts, wore heavy make-up and hair products, cut their hair short, starting drinking and smoking. Notice in the advertisement a woman with short dark hair with her lips scrunched as if she was blowing a kiss. It speaks to a woman 's inner attractiveness, the need to feel strong by the use of their provocative beauty. She is also wearing a lot of makeup, and bright red lipstick. She is also wearing what looks like a string top or…

    The woman in the ad used to be a beautiful human being. A young, smiling teenager with long hair and beautiful skin. A young woman that would be considered attractive today, but after one night and someone choosing to drink and drive, her beautiful outward appearance is gone forever. She is a beautiful person now for continuing on with her life and trying to put the damaged pieces back together. Ms. Saburido’s picture is the majority of the poster, the text shown above and below her burned face. The image is shocking: Ms. Saburido is missing a nose and one eye, and scarred skin stretches over the rest of her skull. Her expression, due to the scarring, shows some uncertainty. The image shows her head and shoulders; she is wearing a black-rimmed hat and a lavender blouse, opened to reveal a burned chest. Jacqueline Saburido, the woman in the ad, shows the consequences of a simple choice. To drive or not drive the car after drinking. That is the question. Both the driver and the victim have to live with the choice that has been made, a choice that was made by only one of them.…
