  5. Analysing Advertising • Advertising tends to follow a basic format - a slogan or a striking image catches our attention, the body of the ad contains more factual information about the product , and a pack shot or logo reinforces the brand identity.The combination of these elements, even though we may only look at them for the average time of 1.5 seconds, leaves us with an impression of the values that are attached to that brand, and a sense of who the target audience for the product is (male? female? pensioner? teenager?). • When first analysing an ad you need to decide: • WHO the ad is aimed at - describe them demographically and psychographically • WHAT is being advertising and WHAT is specifically highlighted about the product (the benefits) in this ad? • WHY this helps sell a product • WHERE/WHEN this ad might appear in order to reach its target audience

  6. Lines of Appeal • Then you need to decide what techniques are being used to communicate with the audience. According to Gillian Dyer (Advertising as CommunicationRoutledge 1988) advertisers use, among other techniques, the following lines of appeal. They use images of or references to these things to tap into our desires - and fears: • Happy families - everyone wants to belong • Rich, luxurious lifestyles - aspirational • Dreams and fantasy • Successfulromance and love • Elite people or experts • Glamorous places • Successful careers • Art, culture & history • Nature & the natural world • Beautiful women - men AND women like looking at beautiful women, so the thinking goes: men admire them, women admire what makes the men admire them. • Self-importance & pride • Comedy & humour • Childhood - can appeal to either nostalgia or to nurturing instincts
