ANIMATIONAnimation is a technique of editing which can be used to create a great advert. Some company’s use this an advantage as they can use a low budget advert but still make it interesting to watch. Below is the McDonalds animated advert, and as you can see this animation does not seem to have a lot of investment around it, however it is still interesting watch and does not bore the audience because of all the different colors.

This advert shows the dangers of using a mobile phone while driving. This is shown in a plain but clever way as it points out the obvious facts for road safety, made by car manufacturer Opel. The cool print has a black background, replicating a phone while at the same time making the white box of text all the more prominent. This shows the target audience to be of course to all drivers any age or gender and can be targeted at The Reformer. This uses a persuasive technique called Pathos, which is shown in the text message as it pulls on the audiences emotions to turn a negative into a positive by sending out a warning about text messaging and driving.

THE ASPIRERMaterialistic, acquisitive people, who are driven by others perceptions of them rather than by their own values. As a result, they respond to what others perceive as being superficial: image, appearance, persona, charisma and fashion. Their core need in life is for status

The advert uses a gorilla to show that when even a gorilla is able to have a delightful experience then anyone who wishes to consume the product is able to also. Instantly the advert attracts audiences with psychographics of Mainstream as a lot of Mainstreamers tend to love animals and have pets of there own. Chocolate is an impulse purchase (spur of the moment, unplanned decision to buy) and location does not play a part in the buying decision so place preference is not acknowledged. As it is an impulse decision its target audience is likely to be the primary consumers of chocolate, children aged 4-16.

The gorilla is presented as playing the drums with extreme enthusiasm and energy. This is specifically done to target those who are also lively and energetic; attracting the attention of those who seek out things that are enjoyable which could be an audience with psychographics of aspirers. The ad cleverly builds up the interest level by displaying the product at the very end once the music (Phil Collins – “In the Air Tonight”) has built up and dropped therefore creating an interest amongst those looking for intellectual activity. The song was made in 1979 so it is likely to attract audiences aged 43-60 and also audiences with a British ethnicity as the song was released in the UK.
