Are You Hungry?


This Advertisement is of the Snickers. Snickers in 1930, listed in the United States. After 75 years, it grew into the world's largest chocolate family and is the main brand of energy based chocolate. It contains grilled peanuts and caramel, wrapped in milk chocolate.

In the beginning of advertisement is a soccer match. The goalkeeper is a girl, and she missing the ball. At this time, her teammate gives her a Snickers chocolate, says, "Eat it," and asks her now how does she feel. The girl becomes a strong man and says, "I am good." At the end, the commercial shows a big chocolate and narration which sas, "Are you hungry? Are you hungry? Eat it! Eat it!"

Snickers since the time of the creation as a "movement", "energy", "sweep hunger". In its brand and product communications, the company is closely related to this positioning. Today, Snickers has become the "movement", "energy" synonymous.

    I agree that the girl changing into a strong man will convince the audience that snickers is good. This also suggests by eating snickers it will improve your performance.

    Nice, Leonard! From this ad, it would seem like Snickers really can improve someone's performance and make them a better person. However, it does not seem to convey a good ethos or logos, which can hurt its argument. Overall, it was a good post.

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...
