Do you love your pet? Then Subaru’s recent commercial, “Dream Weekend”, probably tickled you pink. There are only two sentences said in this one minute commercial, but it speaks volumes through pictures. It tells the story of a middle-aged man and his old dog completing a bucket list of exciting things a dog could do; like chewing new shoes or having a steak dinner. To every person who can relate with companionship to a pet (except Wyatt Avery) is touched with the idea of celebrating the life of a furry friend. Even though this commercial is trying to sell a car, what you remember from the advertisement is the dog and his bucket list. It’s the two sentences at the end is what makes this a car commercial: “It’s not just the miles in life, it’s what you make of them. Love; it’s what makes a Subaru, a Subaru.” When it says the last sentence, it puts a lot of emphasis on the word love.

There is nothing in this commercial that compels me to want one for myself, but I will remember how the commercial touched me and it might occur to me when thinking of cars to buy. It is telling me though, that if I buy this car, made with love, I can make good memories of companionship with it. It is the perfect car to experience the best parts of life in. The viewer doesn’t really think of that at first, but see a moment that they would like to experience or relate to, and that’s the message

Other commercials, according to Solomon, thrive on fitting in. The Chevrolet commercials have a slogan that makes one feel to be American, one must by American. Chevrolet's slogan is 'The Heartbeat of America.'; Car commercials also have targeted markets also. For a truck commercial, they will show a truck getting all dirty and going through an obstacle. This is targeted towards men because most men find these things appealing. For a luxury car commercial the mood or the commercial is nice and pleasant, the car is on a country road (representing one driving to there country home). These cars were once targeted towards upper class people, but now they are targeted towards everyone according to Solomon. A commercial strives on the ever so enduring drive for Americans to have better things and climb up the social status ladder. Marketers know this, so they place normal, average, everyday looking people in their commercials to let middle class people know that they can have the car, too.
As a car drives by the window, the viewer sees the dog lift his head up and lay it down when he realizes it is not his owner. After this scene, the following words are shown on the commercial, “For some, the waiting never ended. But we can change that.” According to MADD, “In 2015, 10,265 people died in drunk driving crashes… 290,000 were injured in drunk driving crashes.” The next morning the owner walks in through the door and says, “I decided I shouldn’t drive home last night”, this shows how responsible the owner is because he does not want to hurt others if he had drove while drunk. In the background, the viewer hears the lyrics, “I’ll be waiting here for you, when you come home to me…” which supports the fact that the dog has been waiting all night for the owner to come back safe and sound. The next scene in the commercial says, “Make a plan to make it home. Your friends are counting on you.” By having the saying in third person, the commercial is trying to persuade the reader to drink responsibly because there is always someone waiting at home. In the end credits, the viewer sees the famous Budweiser logo with the hashtag friends are waiting. In the bottom of the ad, the Budweiser commercial had the words “Enjoy responsibly” on
All it takes is one look at the commercial by Toyota to get a glimpse of what it is emphasizing. It all starts off early in the morning in a dark kitchen with a coffee maker that just brewed up some coffee, a knock on the door quickly turns the scene into a garage packed top to bottom with sporting equipment. Everything in the garage, a snowboard, some coolers, an quick glance at an ATV and even a canoe hanging from the ceiling reassure the predictable outdoor setting. Moments later a lonely highway surrounded by mountains and green plains brings the views to see the two guys in the commercial leaving an outdoor sporting goods store. So far someone viewing this ad would get a feeling of early morning preparations for some sort of adventure involving

Hyundai uses pathos in the “Ryanville” commercial to appeal to women’s emotions through sex and temptation, and a celebrity sex symbol posed as a policeman, a neighborhood dad, a construction worker, and a friendly pedestrian walking his dogs. Hyundai uses different appeals to attack women’s values of having a nice car, and a handsome husband, to lead them to a feeling of success. In each of Ryan’s appearances he is smiling and looking at the women in the car as if they are distracting him. Hyundai is convincing the audience to believe that if they were to buy a Hyundai Elantra, a man as good looking as Ryan Reynolds would notice them, and they

Models keep the reader interested on the page and trigger the reader into wanting to find out more about what is being advertised. In the ad, sitting in front of the gray background, is an innocent dog. The dog looks like one an average family would own, which causes the reader to have a strong connection to the dog. The dog has white paws, a white snout and chest, and a brown head, tail, and back.

The Super Bowl is a game that has been and will continue to be watched and celebrated by almost every American. Friends and families gather to enjoy typical tailgating snacks, while watching the national football leagues. However, the game is not the only aspect of the Super Bowl that grabs society’s attention. Super Bowl commercials draw viewers in by using tactics that are never seen in an average commercial. As time increases and technology further develops, do Super Bowl commercials such as Kia’s “Hero’s Journey” use different tactics to try to grab America’s attention or do they waste their time and money as Bruce Horovitz believes?
The primary audience for this ad is very wealthy, single males age 40 to 80 that are possibly going through a mid-life, or end-of-life, crisis and need something to make them feel young again. Who better to make an eighty-year-old man feel younger than his new, voluptuous, twenty-something wife? Not only does this ad target older men, it also brings in the younger upper class, as well. By having this very old man and very young, beautiful model pose as husband and wife, it gives the message to all men, that regardless of appearance, they can have a beautiful girlfriend as long as they have the money and a Dodge Viper. Dodge is definitely targeting the self-esteem of wealthy men. Men that, although wealthy, may not have everything they want in life. They’ve made their fortune but are lacking in joy. This ad is using another exploited emotion in this country, lust, to sell the Viper.

DDB’s first “big idea” behind the campaign was no different; The main goal was to make the Volkswagen more American by shooting Suzy Parker standing next to a Volkswagen. It wasn’t until after visiting the production line and watching the step by step production of the Volkswagen did DDB strike gold with an innovate new “big idea.” What resonated with the American advertising team the most during this visit was the incredible quality control of the German factory, thus they decided on “an honest car promoted with Honesty.”
