2. The product … I am going to advertise Coco Chanel
lip stick.
I have chosen to advertise Coco
Chanel lip stick because the make up
industry is very big and popular. The
cosmetic industry is a profitable
business for most manufacturers
of cosmetic products. By cosmetic
products, we understand anything
that is intended for personal care
such as skin lotions or sun
lotions, makeup and other such
products meant to emphasize
one's look.

9. Extra information about the advert …
•Most of the attention is to be concentrated on the face so the
model has to make strong eye contact with the consumers.
•The background for the advert is going to be quite dull and not
really colourful; you get very similar colours just in different
shades, e.g. black, a bit of white, dark navy blue and different
shades of grey.
•The model will be the most colourful object in the advert. The
reason for this is because the model is to be the main focus in the
advert because it is her that is advertising the product; therefore
she cannot blend in with the background (she has to stand out).
•She’ll be wearing a tight dark blue dress (just above knee length),
light brown leather jacket and light brown leather heels.
•Most of the light will be concentrated on the model and the
background will be kind of blurry. High key lighting is going to be
used to give the overall image a clear look.
•The model will be holding a blackberry in one of her hands while
the other hand will be empty with the Red Coco Chanel lip stick
beneath her hand to give an effect like she’s dropping it.
10. •Cheeky smile
•Curly hair
•The model is walking down the road
•Fierce body language
•Strong eye contact
•Face full of confidence
The Product:
•The product will be at the left bottom corner of the advert and will be fairly big.
I don’t want the product to take up too much space because that way the advert
will not be as effective. I also don’t want the product to be too small because the
consumer has to be able to see without squinting, so it has to be clear and visible
for everyone to see. The lip stick on the advert will also be red however there will
be a little caption saying: “Comes in twenty different shades, from delicate beiges
to dazzling berries.” The reason that I want this little caption to be there is so
that every consumer knows there is a range of shades and colours to choose from
which is hard to do just by looking at the advert, reason being the product on the
advert is in the colour red and the model lip stick that the model is wearing is also
in red so it would be hard to tell what other colours/shades there are (if any).
The model’s facial expression for my advert is going to be that of a strong and
confident woman. The aim is to look natural but confident and beautiful at the
same time. I have decided for the model to use direct mode of address. The
connotation of me using direct mode of address is that it stimulates an interaction
11. Background… they’re all looking at her
•Men surrounding her and
•All the men are business men and they are all wearing suits
•The model is not wearing business clothes (to make her stand out)
•Model not wearing extensive make-up; only mascara and a bit of
eyeliner. This is so more attention is concentrated on the lips
rather than the rest. The focus point are the lips and not the rest
of the face, if the model was to wear extensive make-up it would
distract the whole image and the main focus would no longer be
there.
•She will be wearing red Coco Chanel lip stick and the reason for
that is because red is a colour that symbolises mostly guilt, sin,
passion and anger, often as connected with blood or sex. However
in my advert the colour red is going to symbolize courage and
sacrifice but mostly courage rather than sacrifice.
•The model is not paying the men any attention at all.
•She is an un-business woman in a place full of business men
•The model is representing independence, confidence, dominance
(woman/girl power) and of course ... BEAUTY!
