Advertisements
Sharon Itelia
Anti-realist Advert
The anti-realistic style of advertisement, as the name suggests, usually make use of scenes and
situations that are out of the ordinary and completely unrealistic. They usually have an overt
message and often times have tonnes of over the top, bombastic, strange and surreal imagery.
These types of advertisements often stand out greatly, each being very memorable and easy to
identify. They frequently feature characters or company mascots in situations where the
company’s product is generally the answer to any problems they might have to deal with a lot
of companies utilize this form of advertisement because it allows them to show their products
performing feats that would be impossible in the real world, such as giving the customer special
powers usually accompanied with a slogan that the viewer associates with what the product can
supposedly do for example: “Lynx- Even Angels Will Fall ”Well known examples include the
“Evian Roller Babies” advertisements.

Realist Narrative Advert
A realist narrative advert can be incredibly beneficial for a company, because it is more believable
and allows the viewer to relate to the message that the advert is putting across better. Realism
within an advert can be conveyed in various ways, whether it is through the use of non-actor that
simply informs the viewer about the product or service being provided or whether it is a situation,
played by actors, that is seemingly set in reality. Realistic adverts are mainly used for products or
services related to more serious situations. For instance those relating to the health service, child
abuse, charity etc. Famous celebrities and TV personalities are often shown in these types of
adverts, informing the viewer about a situation or sometimes going out and mingling with the
public to find out their opinions and views about a product.

fresh, hand prepared
The documentary style of advert is an offshoot of the realistic style. A
documentary styled advert is used for a similar purpose, mainly to inform and
educate the viewer, bringing to light thought provoking situations that might
also be used to shock the viewer. These types of adverts are mainly used by
charities, showing the viewer journey through a day in the life of a person or
animal that is in need of support. Documentary adverts also contain a lot of
facts about the product usally being told by the employee of the brand .
Talking Heads Advert
102.2 Capital FM Birmingham TV Advert EE 4G advert Kevin Bacon
Talking head adverts are where the subject of the advert is talking directly to the
camera through to the viewers at home. The subject face is usually presented as a
close up so the advert becomes more personal as you are able to connect with the
subject via their facial expression, body language and emotions. Talking head adverts
tend to use celebrity endorsement to endure the viewer.
Series advert
BT Showcase AD-Heart to Heart
Series advert are used by a company, where they promote their different
products through the different style of adverts each time. Although the
product may change, the same characters are continuously used. This
allows the viewers to follow the storyline and watch as the character
develop. It can intrigue the audience so they will want to know what
happens next and be more interested in the product.
Animation Advert
Kellogg's Frosties - High Dive 2007 UK TV Advert McDonald's UK Happy Meal Advert - Monsters Inc.
Animation is generally used in adverts to present a plot which would either have a stronger
visual impact as an animation. The word ‘animation’ is often associated with cartoons or
children’s films; however it is not firmly established in the world of Digital Marketing. The
animation is used in advertisement to give a feeling of reality and aliveness. It also helps to
explain the product or service and get to the point quickly, the main benefit of using
animation in commercial is to make it interesting and unique. The more original the advert
is the more memorable it would be for the customer to buy the product. An example of this
is the animatic Kellogg’s Frosties and McDonald’s Monsters Inc advert.
Stand Alone Advert
A standalone advert is a one off advert, this means that the character in the
advertisement most likely won’t appear again within the advert, but if they
do they wouldn’t play the same role. Standalone adverts are usually trial ads
to see how appealing an advert is tot their target audience.

Editor's Notes

  1. Evian Roller Babies US- the advert is a video of babies’ break dancing in roller skates. The advert is humorous as it is not likely that we see babies break dancing in roller-skates. The advert makes people think that when we drink Evian water is takes us back to when we was young. The soundtrack of the advert is a famous song “Rappers Delight-Hip Hop Hippy”, the techniques the brand has used was to use this well-known song that most of the audience are familiar with, also engaging the audience with the song as well as just promoting the brand- Evian water. The Lynx advert ‘Even Angels Will Fall’ advertises deodorant. The advert implies that Lynx make the opposite gender who is wearing Lynx more attractive. The adverts endorsed the Victoria Secret models as actual angels with a Halo’s, the intertexual reference to the Victoria Secret models is great idea, because for the audience who has seen Victoria Secret runways/Catwalks, they will notice that they always seem to wear angle wings as people associate the Models as ‘Angles’. The advert was successful, persuading the audience to buy their product because it convinces the audience that if we use Lynx’s the opposite sex would be instantly attracted.   The advert location was set in Greece, because of the skyscrapers and the characters that was used, they were speaking a different language. The idea of the advert being set in Greece is ironic because Greece is known for their famous belief of Gods/Goddess, and the advert consist of angels literally falling from the sky. The advert is a non-linear narrative, it begins with the angels walking towards an ordinary man, leaving the audience confused, but at the end of the advert it shows the man spraying himself with Lynx spray with a voice over of “Even Angels will fall”.
  2. Stroke signs – FAST advert is an advert noticing the signs of a stroke, this advert is an awareness advert. The department of Health campaign promoted a simple test to recognise the signs of a stroke and act quickly. The voice over informs the audience what we should do in case of a stroke, it starts of by saying “when a stroke strikes it spreads like a fire in the brain” during this time there is a symbolic picture of an ordinary man at a football match with an increasing hole growing on his head, the idea of the man is at a football match tells the audience that a stroke can happen anytime and anywhere. The voice over then goes on about how we have to act ‘F.A.S.T (Face. Arms. Speech. Time)’ in a case of a stroke.   The Mise en scene used is the camera movants. The advert opens with a long shot of a man at a football match, then the camera slowly zooms until it becomes an extreme close up of his face. When the voice over indicates ‘Face. Arms and speech’ the use of extreme close up of his mouth, arms and his face. Makes the audience more aware of the advert because it make us feel a little bit uncomfortable and alarmed. NSPCC TV AD Amy - 4 hours old advertise child abuse. The advert is a baby being place in her hospital crib after 4hours of being born, the voice over of a young girl talking about child abuse before it all started. The voice starts with “this is me Amy, 4hours old before my first smile- before the shouting and the screaming- before I was thrown against the wall- before they said they wished I had never been born” the words that are used makes the audience feels almost guilty and disturbed that these type of things are actually happening right now. These type of adverts makes a sympathetic towards the character and wants us to act upon the situation. The way the brand makes us sympathized towards the advert is the use of camera work and the Mise en scene. The beginning of the advert opens up with a new born baby carefully being place in her crib, the pace of the editing is very slow, this makes the advert seem longer and gives the audience time to stop and pay attention to the advert. The close ups of the baby; face, tiny feel, and hands makes the audience feel warm hearted
  3. Barnardo's | Charity TV Advert 2011 | Life Story -The advert starts with a grown man speaking about his life so far, almost like a therapy lesson, as the advert continues the man attitude changes; angry/abusive, so does his appearance. The advert is a flashback of a traumatised young man, he talks about how he used to be abused by his parents.
