Cheez It

I have decided to do my blog post on a Cheez It commercial from Two Thousand Ten. The commercial starts out saying that they expect a lot from their cheese, saying that they actually care about what product they are giving to you.

Then the scene it cuts two is a scene that has a brick of cheese talking to a intelligent looking man. The doctor is trying to show that they use experts to evaluate their product and make sure it is a good product. During this scene they use humor, to make the viewer laugh,  between the cheese and the doctor or professional as it seems. The cheese tries to make a joke and then the man marks the cheese as not ready to be made, indicating that they care about their product.

The next scene shows the same doctor with the cheese again. Although this time the cheese talked in a more sophisticated way and sounded very proper. The man then went to check the box with the ready next to it indicating that the cheese was ready, showing the consumers that they only put the best cheese into their product.

Cheez It tries to use many ways to persuade their viewers into buying their product. They try to make you think professionals care for their products. They play with different emotions and draw the viewer in with them.

    Ya i always see those commercials, but i personally believe that they are not going towards the credibility standpoint but a humor standpoint. They do use some credibility but they just want you to laugh at their jokes.

    The Cheez It commercials are funny. I would not actually believe that they have their cheese inspected like that but some people may. Their use of humor is pretty good.

    Clayton I see the argument you are making but I don't fully agree with it. Instead of appealing to emotion, I think they are appealing to credibility instead, because they are using the scientists.

    I agree that they are trying to show that they care about how they are making their product even though the commercial has an illogical way of showing it, but I also agree with a previous comment about how they are also using Ethos to appeal to credibility. This is really good though.

    i never saw the commercial of the product, but you described the commercial well. I could easily follow your logic. But there is no good craker like Cheeze it!

Weight of Glory

In Mr. Cline's class a few weeks ago. We took the day off in a way from our normal classes. Instead of continuing to read the books we were assigned and discussing them, he read us the sermon by C.S Lewis "The Weight of Glory." Its a long sermon, but one worth reading. It is about the confusion many people have on the topic of what we desire the most. He explains after much background information, that we all desire true happiness. And through that happiness, we long for heaven, our true home that we were designed for. He explains that glory is not what many people think of as being "famous" in heaven. But more that we are honored by our Lord and Father. For it to be like the scripture passage "Well done, good and faithful servant." C.S Lewis does a fantastic job at being persuasive here, and if read by the right person aloud, can have an excellent effect. He clears up lots of points that people bring up that are not true. Such as the point of glory...

Stephen Curry (Brita)

I saw this commercial for Brita water on YouTube and on T.V.  Stephen Curry, a professional basketball player that plays for the Golden State Warriors, endorses and promotes the product by saying "not all water is the same."  In this advertisement he makes Brita water seem better than the other leading brands of water by saying "You are what you drink."  He also says "some water can dribble, drain threes, or even drain a buzzer beater."  With these claims, he is implying that drinking the Brita water it could make you better at basketball and help you become better and as good as him. Brita uses a celebrity to sell it by implying that it could improve your basketball performance.  This advertisement is false because water is not going to change your skills and abilities.  It tries to persuade you to buy it because a professional basketball player drinks it.  I feel as though it may persuade some people to buy it because of Stephen Curry endorsing it....

Marilyn Monroe's Shampoo

While browsing on Google I found an old advertisement.  The ad was for Lustre-Crème Shampoo. It featured Marilyn Monroe, known for her beauteous looks and her parts in different movies. One of her movies was Gentlemen Prefer Blondes. Lustre-Crème was attempting to sell their shampoo through the use of fallacies. By saying that Marilyn Monroe that tells you nothing about the actual product: it simply attracts you to the pretty face in the picture. Using this as an argument of why someone should buy your product is quite illogical. Just because Marilyn Monroe uses it doesn’t provide assurance of its abilities. They attempt using snob appeal by trying to make the audience believe that they could be like Marilyn Monroe if they use the same product as her. They use appeal to illegitimate authority by using Marilyn Monroe to promote their product. Although she herself is a customer, this is still rather irrelevant. She herself has no type of expertise in hair products and knows nothing t...
