Will work for... Life

This is such a sad advert, it is serious, to the point and I feel it is very effective.

Ready.. Steady..

I know rabbits are fast, there is that famous story of the turtle and the hare and even though the hare didn't win we do know it's fast from the story. This advert is to advertise a car going from 0 to very high speeds very quickly. I think it's a clever idea but I don't like the exploitation and cruelty of the advert, it's showing you how fast the rabbit can go in a matter of seconds... When threatened or scared.

Spring cleaning

This advert is to get people to do spring cleaning, go out and buy products and hope too it, I like the animal and they've made it seem motherly somehow but it does has a slight seriousness to it as I'm sure anything does when an animal or human takes off its outer layer of skin for fur to be hung up to dry.

Pigs a plenty

This advert I find physically and mentally sickening, they have tried to make the pig sexy to try to entice you.. To eat it!!
It is sending extremely misleading and sending all the wrong signals, it is obviously meant to be making the pig look attractive, to look 'good enough to eat' but instead I find it creepy and perverse.

Just a circus bear

This is a brilliant advert because animal cruelty is a massive deal when it comes to circus' and shows and in some cases they would ignore the law and keep the animals working, not in the shows but behind the scenes and thats why this is so brilliant, have the bear disguised as a bear so it is ok for a person dressed as a bear to work but he is being ignored and tortured. Makes its point really effectively and brilliantly.

1 sheep.. 2 shee

This is a very digitally well done image, thank god it's NOT a photograph. It is for caffeine tablets that help you stay awake, everyone knows the typical when your tired count sheep to fall asleep and I do not approve of the animal cruelty in this advert, I get the gist but I think it's unneeded, they've put so much detail into the Sheep's pain but the sheep never asked to be counted and they don't do anything to actually make you fall asleep so in this they are a victim who's been dragged into this for no reason.

Cat-astrophie

This is a really sad and touching advert. It is for the RSPCA and shows about how if they could, animals would do anything to be kept from being thrown out like rubbish. They don't realise what they do to annoy people and they can't contact 100% understandably to say sorry or tell you there feelings or needs, and people loose their rag and do horrible things in return. This is a lovely advert, it's shows the cats fear and remorse and how judgemental and brash humans can be.

Going for a drive??

We all know the stereo typical image of a dog with its head out of the window, and this advert is about a car, this poor dog clearly has its toungu wrapped around its face due to him happily sticking his head out of the window when the car is going to fast, and that the aim, it's a funny image although cruel but it makes you laugh and thinks of fast cars. Exploitation at its best ladies and gentleman!

Play... Nope smell!

These dogs are known widely to be used by the police as 'sniffer dogs' they do a lot of good for people, they help un cover criminals and find missing people and I think this advert is good, the dogs facial expression shows that his job is tough, something in sure everyone can relate to, and in return he deserves something good and rewarding such as dog treats, which is what the advert is about. You really do feel sorry for the dog as no one should have to smell dirty undies.

FAUX warming..

This is a beautifully touching serious advert that shows real issues, it isn't exploiting animals purely for entertainment but is showing a harsh could be reality where global warming has gotten so bad this bear would rather have his fur as a cape than keep it for being boiled to death. Brilliant advertisement. Really touching and well laid out.

15 love!!

This advert is to advertise a tennis game available on game consoles, I understand that they have drawn out a tennis court to get more into the feel of the game but they have purely added the dog for comedy. I think it's awful that some adverts do purposely have abused animals in them to add some laughter, it is harsh that the dog got so little attention in this advert that he was actually painted over.

Also this advert tells you nothing about the game apart from; tennis.

Time for a shave..

I do think this advert is slightly cruel and I understand it's meant to be comical because it is for a waxing company, although these cats are naturally bold its no use trying to wax one. I don't rate this advert much and think it was harsh to exploit the cats fur or lack off.

Fancy a loaf

This advert is comical, they have picked the perfect bread of dog to match a loaf of bread, this advert is to warn about germs, to make sure you realise that what you touch is what you eat. Everyone strokes there pets and then immediately eat food, same as we touch other people and then eat.
I think it is effective but it's maybe too comical for people to take seriously, and there is a bit of cruelty as the dog does look sad, but in another way they haven't overly made it obvious that he's meant to be a load of bread (so you are essentially eating what you touch). The whole spectrum of this advert is that you subconsciously see him as bread same as you subconsciously eat after touching items.

Why is a Rhino...

This advert is too show that this car has the same kind of power as a Rhino, not that the car is literally a Rhino. I think it's a good advert which stereotypes Rhinos as being strong, fast and steady which they are and they are also dangerous, same as cars. I think it's a good advert, it's not harming the Rhino in any way and it's a very wide angled advert that lets you decide your take on it.

Against Animal Testing!!!

http://stylefrizz.com/200902/against-animal-testing/

I am looking into ways of advertising that really get the attention of the public and make them understand issues of animal cruelty, I found these brilliant yet vulgar adverts which I believe work beautifully.

I've always been a fern believer of the more vulgar or harsh an image/ADVERT is the more it grabs your attention, the more memorable,, the more effective and thoroughly it gets the issue across!!

This was a advertising campaign/awareness campaign signed by Jung V Matt.

Brought to you by Kacie!



This is an advert for the ENPA which is a charity for protecting animals,
this advert is all about protecting animals like harsh conditions,
it shows a penguin - dog hybrid.


Its saying that dogs were not made to sure the cold as well as other animals,
in this case penguins. It is a slightly creepy advert but
not 100% sure if its drastic enough to make a solid impact.

This is a brief advertisement for GOOGLE. About the search engine being the best.
Correcting any spelling errors and finding exactly the subject
you were looking form like this solid example of searching for BATTLESHIP
and the incorrect search engine coming up with this picture..
A Battle Sheep.


The animal actually has no relevance to what the advert is representing at all.

This is a truly controversial advert, I’m sure you have heard of baby seals being clubbed as their fur is really soft as apposed to the older seals whose skins falls out and moulds into a protective blubber.
So many hunters club the young to death and sheer them, the reason they kill them in such a horrible inhumane way is so they don’t damage the fur.


I think this is a brilliant advert, its very striking and really flips the script, asking you how you would feel if your new born baby was clubbed to death? This advert is appealing to all parents everywhere.
It’s a very universal advert and simply says one thing.
‘’Don’t treat others the way you don’t want to be treated’’.


Controversial or Creepy??

This is my look into Advertising. How we use animals to advertise brands, vehicles’ and world wide problems.

These are some advertisements I have got of this site;
and I will also be examining video advertisements shown on TV.
 
I am going to examine and diagnose what these adverts are about, are they Controversial? Creepy? Effective? How do they effect us?

(These adverts will be shown and diagnosed in a random order).


This is an advert for chewing gum believe it or not and as you can see features a diver with a shark taking a ‘’cheese’’ photograph moment.
The slogan is ‘’This is a much juicier chew’’ which I’m not sure if that’s a play on shark attacks. To be honest I don’t understand this advert entirely.
I like the imagery and it’s a nicer way to think of sharks rather than your typical jaws view but how it has anything to do with chewing gum is beyond me.
