Snickers Super Bowl Ad 2010

February 14, 2014

Advertising is what draws a majority of Americans to watch the Super Bowl. Year after year corporations compete for the most memorable commercials. In the 2010 Super Bowl, Snickers uses logos to display that you aren’t you when you’re hungry. That you will embody a different personality and that Snickers satisfies. Snickers are candy bars sold at any grocery store, market or gas station. Snickers consist of peanut nougat topped with roasted peanuts and caramel inside a milk chocolate bar. Snickers are manufactured by Mars, Incorporated and they claim that a Snickers bar is what a person should eat when hungry. Snickers’ memorable advertisement sets the tone for future comedic commercials, but also displays a problem with nutrition in this country. Snickers’ strategy was using humor for the audience to remember the product. The commercial starts with an intense game of park football the audience hears groaning and fighting between the two teams. Next the audience sees that Betty White is playing. Then you see the ball being thrown to Betty White and being tackled into the mud as she misses the ball. Betty White is immediately called out for her bad performance as she walks back to the huddle. Her teammates are calling her by the name Mike and giving her a hard time about not playing well. One of the teammates tries humiliating her by claiming that she is playing like Betty White, which is the punch line of the commercial because she is Betty White. She responds with a memorable funny comeback, “That’s not what you’re girlfriend said.” This is really funny just because Betty White is about 90 years old and she is talking smack on the football field. When all of the guys start arguing, a woman steps in and hands Betty White a Snickers bar and when she takes a bite she transforms into ‘Mike’ and he heads back to the huddle. The commercial ends humorously with Abe

    The producers chose to use vibrant colors throughout the ad to make the motion picture livelier. Although the actors are not famously known, they distract the audience with the humorous script. By having the father and his friends dance around in puffy dresses, they make themselves seem childish and more relatable to younger people. The text in this advertisement is kept to a minimal, so that it will not overpower the main visual aspect. Only the slogan is shown to emphasize the importance of what this ad is really about. Bright orange and white are against a striking black to make the logo really stand out. All of these notable elements immensely help towards making this commercial engaging to the…

    The commercial I choose to do my paper on was a Doritos commercial from Super Bowl XLII. In a Doritos ‘commercial, a man working in his garden becomes suspicious when he sees his Great Dane burying what appears to be the collar of a missing cat. Next thing the man knows he’s staring eye to eye with the pooch, who’s realized his master has caught him getting rid of evidence of a heinous crime. To buy his silence the dog slips his owner a bag of Doritos with a note attached reading ‘You didn’t see nuthin.” The man acknowledges the dog with a smile of agreement and it shows the Doritos logo. The commercial’s punch line comes when the man takes the Doritos inside and happily devours the bag. As he finishes the bag and is scourging for crumbs his wife from another room says ‘Honey, have you seen the cat?’ The man from the kitchen looks up at the sliding glass door to see the Great Dane standing on the other side with another bag of Doritos and says “Nope”. The commercial then ends.…

    [Next topic sentence offers the next strong point of what will be analyzed in this paragraph]. Immediately in the beginning of the commercial the narrator says, "It 's avocado season at Subway. This super, tasty, super-food helps power any training routine" (Subway). Subway is already concluding that their avocado sandwich is the best solution to help train for anything whether it involves athletics or to being healthier. While the narrator is talking, vivid images of fresh-looking produce, sliced meats, and warm breads, is being displayed; it is effective in marketing their avocado sandwiches making their message more powerful. In addition, they use professional athletes (Ron Howard, Mike Trout, Carl Edwards) stating that Subway is their official training restaurant, which also helps boost Subway’s credibility. This is be effective towards someone who is not knowledgeable about nutrition because it narrows on only one food source instead of talking about other foods. There are plenty of other alternatives out there that can also be beneficial; however, Subway is able to produce a convincing product with the use of detailed images of their sandwiches and professional athletes to reinforce…

    Audi’s animated commercial, ‘’Let’s Change the Game’’, addresses the issue of gender preconceptions at first glance. The animated short begins with a wide shot, in which we are only shown two aisles, one blue and the other pink. In the pink aisle there are Barbie-like dolls who are made to play into the roles of stereotypical females. Nicole, a mirrored image of the classic Barbie doll, is the protagonist who defies gender roles by entering the boy’s aisle and driving a car. Nicole’s adventures are short lived because the lights in the store are turned on, which makes her and the rest of the toys freeze in place. A young boy picks up the car in which Nicole is frozen in and tells his mother that he wants the car. Consequently, the mother puts…

    “Need a moment? Grab a Twix!” We all know this famous line from every Twix candy bar commercial. The question “Need a moment?” as a general question can refer to a variety of things, ever realize though, that in every Twix commercial that the ‘needed moment’ is a moment for the men to find a cover story to save their ass? And how after ‘taking a moment’ to eat a Twix they come up with a believable excuse that every woman accepts without question. If you’ve never thought about that before you now are. One question that came to my mind when I found this similarity in commercials, which just might also be going through your minds as well, was why. Why would a company choose to advertise their product this way? The answer is simple; because it works. The commercials are using simple rhetoric to convince its audience to buy their product.…
