Recommended: Advertising and its impact

Our everyday lives consist of advertisements, there is literally no escape, and for me advertisements that play heavy with emotions catch my attention more often than any other. The advertisement I choose for this analysis project is the BCSPCA (British Columbia Society for the prevention of curtly to animals) commercial featuring Sarah McLachlan and her atrociously sad song “Angel”. Now, a bit of background information on BCSPCA and McLachlan, BCSPCA is a non for profit organization for the advocacy of animal welfare, there are locations all over the United States (ASPCA) and Canada, like franchises if you will. These guys love animals and so it would be fitting that their motto is “we are their voice”, being that animals can’t speak and all. …show more content…

Once again the ominous black screen is back with the stark white letters “For Hundreds of others, help came too late “and again more animals looking sad. Now, it cuts to Sarah, sitting in a rather nicely furnished room on a couch with a dog, I presume it is her dog, and a pillow for comfort. This shows that you will be able to help from the comfort of your home .She introduces herself and then she begins to speak and the shot goes on to more abused animals and animals receiving care “will you be an angel for a helpless animal? Every day innocent animals are abused, beaten, and neglected. They are crying out for help”, all the while she has a deeply sad look about her. As this is happening there is a 1-800 number and a website on the bottom of the screen, she then follows with a request” for you to call the number on the screen and give a gift of a monthly contribution of eighteen dollars a month, only sixty cents a day and you will help rescue animals from their abusers and provide food shelter and love”. Moreover, she continues with “if you go online and join within 30 minutes you will get a free welcome kit and a picture of an animal in the shelter right now, one who has been given a second chance thanks to you”. So now not only can you give money to help but

Whenever you examine a text like a film, TV show, novel, ect. there is always a great deal of other texts that directly reference or promotes the text and these other texts are known as paratexts. A paratext can consist of many different things from an ad promoting a book in the newspaper, a trailer for the latest movie or even a review on the new hit single. When it came to the classic silent film serials of the 1910’s-1930’s a rather interesting paratext comes into play, the promotion for a theater owner to screen the film at their local theater.

In the Public Service Announcement (PSA), "Sarah McLachlan Animal Cruelty", produced by the ASPCA, this commercial persuades the audience through pathos appeals, but the PSA's representation of the appeals of ethos and logos are showing animals in America suffering from cruelty and neglect every day.

For this assignment, I chose to analyze the Pop Chips print advertisement. Pop Chips are known to be the organic, more healthier, and also more pricier potato chips. This specific Pop Chips advertisement features celebrity singer and spokeswoman, Katy Perry. The advertisements slogan, which is smack dead at the top of the print ad states “Love without the handles”. Pop Chips are just not the chips that you go for because you see it on a shelf at a store, you have to somehow be predisposed to these chips because they are in fact, nothing special at first.

PETA’s hyper-sexualization of women in their ethical ad campaigns , their discourse around obesity, and their homogenous approach to couple’s advertisements perpetuates dangerous messages to viewers that can lead to unintended consequences. The emphasis of sex in these images takes away from the important issue of animal rights, which should be the companies main focus. There have been other more effective ad campaigns for animals rights than PETA’s controversial ones. Sarah McLachlan in her “In the Arms of an Angel” commercials leave an lasting impact on viewers, while not using sex and controversy to do so.
