This observation assignment has been very interesting, in that it has made me more aware of advertisements. The two that I chose are Gentleman's Quarterly (GQ) and Vogue, both from September 2014.

In Vogue #1, (an ad for Ruddenberry of London) there seems to be outdoor party of some sort going on. There is a man pouring tea with a fake smile. There's another
A Comparison of Two Advertisements The female advert could be aimed at middle aged women. This is because it is not showing a really young person in the mirror such as a teenager, and it looks like someone in their mid-twenties or early thirties.

Analysis of Advertisements for Two Different Things In order for advertisements to succesfully portray a product, they must be directed to the appropriate intended audience.
