202 Words1 Page

Our perceptions of the world is largely dictated by the most important thing surrounding our environment. For example, experienced advertisers realise that choosing when and where to air a television advert is an extremely important choice because of priming effects. When viewers watch the last scene before an advert break, that last scene can activate a certain schema, which can then influence how people perceive the next advert. Consider the television show, Grey’s Anatomy. Nearly every scene before an advert break in Grey’s Anatomy ends on a depressing cliffhanger. A likeable main character just discovers the terrible news that she has cancer and is going to die within three months. The programme is then paused for an advert break. Choosing

  • Grey Goose Ad Analysis

    918 Words  | 4 Pages

    In first glance of the Grey Goose “Fly Beyond” ad, the asymmetrical balance and positioning of the product catch your attention. The Grey Goose bottle setup is shifted slightly to the right on a marble slab table, while the accompanying text is placed overhead on the upper left, creating harmony and unity — evenly distributing the ad’s content. Paying attention to the colours, there are no outstanding or unfitting colors that seem out of place. The colours mainly found in the ad — grey, white, and different shades of blue, are heavily exaggerated in the table’s contents and in both the background hues and text color as well. With the use of shallow depth of field, the ad executes heavy use of contrast.
