Dove Body Wash Commercials
I watched a Dove body wash commercial. It is about four women testing out an unknown product and having to choose which product they would like at the end of the testing. All women involved in the test chose Dove body wash.
The target audience is women every woman. Their initial attitude toward the product was them being hesitant only because they didn't know that it would be Dove in the end of the commercial.
They asked the women would they like to participate in a make over. Sure that would get any woman's attention. Getting free make up and clothes, why not. Once they got the woman and the cast told him they were getting a make over, they were told to undress and shower. Each woman was given a unknown bottle of body wash to shower with.

    Bar soap is seemingly such an unassuming everyday household item. However it isn’t as simple as it may appear. For example, Dove soap is made up of sodium cocoylisethionate, stearic acid, coconut acid, and sodium tallowate. In addition, water, sodium isethionate, sodium stearate, cocamidopropyl betaine, sodium cocoate or palm kernelate, fragrance, sodium chloride, BHT and titanium dioxide are also used. Now, the once ordinary bar of soap seems so much more complex. To my surprise, many women around the world see a bar of Dove soap even more complex than that. The Dove campaign for Real beauty has inspired many women to think far more critically about something that they would normally not think much about. Since 2004 Dove has tried, “…to celebrate the natural physical variation embodied by all women and inspire them to have the confidence to be comfortable with themselves.”(Dove) Dove has launched a variety of advertisements, video, workshops, and sleepover events to 11 million women throughout the country.…

    We have hoped that this product will gain a target market of woman and young girls. This decision was reached after doing market research; we did questionnaires asking people if there was a new product in the market, what kind of product they would want the most. Our questionnaire and field research were directed specifically at woman and we found out 90% of the woman would like a lipstick as they like to look presentable when they go out. The extensive research that we did showed us that woman buy lipsticks a lot more than other products. It was important for us to do market research when we come up with the product idea because market research helps you know the market and the people you will be working with. It also helps make decisions about pricing, promotion, product and location.

    Old Spice Analysis

    On Youtube, when looking at videos you have to watch ads before you can enjoy the video you want to watch. I saw the commercial for Old Spice deodorant when browsing Youtube’s videos and thought it was a very effective advertisement, it is very fast paced and always changing so it makes the viewer concentrate and pay more attention to the commercial. The advertisement is based around the spokesperson, who is a man telling the audience that all women would prefer him over their man. He says the next best thing to having him as your man is having your man smell like him. The commercial spends thirty three seconds trying to convince the viewer that if you buy its companies body wash or deodorant and use it to smell like the man on the screen you will be able to do the ridiculous things he is capable of doing. The advertisements purpose is either to make a man want to buy the scented product so he can please his ladies nasal senses and amaze her, or to make a woman want her man to start wearing the product for her pleasure.…

    Young dark skinned women found it to be racist due to the ‘before and after’ words. The advert shows a timeline starting from the left with an African American, Latina women in the middle and white woman at the end to the far right. This suggests that getting more visibly beautiful skin means having lighter and whiter skin. Furthermore, not only is it the colour of skin which is found to be an issue but also the models size. The model underneath the word ‘after’ is white, skinny and blonde. The ideology message sent to the audience is that women need to have a particular look, in order to be beautiful. Dove may have not designed the ad in this manner on purpose, but the general public do.…
