Advertising Techniques

 ENDORSEMENT and Emotional Appeal

                                    As you now a lot commpanies have been using advertisments for thousands of years to their advantage. I will show you some of the techniques used in the commercials to persuade there costumers to come desperate for their products. One technique used is Endorsement. Endorsement is when a celeberty recommends a product. If a celeberty uses a invention created by a brand a lot of their fans will buy it too. In the video shown below is an example of Endorsement because Ashton Kutcher ( celeberty) looks like he is enjoying the camera and is taking photos which  seem to him like they're great. The other video down below shows the technique emotional appeal because it focusses on how dog is and how lonely they are. They're trying to make people adapt one of the dogs so they can get a home and no longer crave for food and the things they need for life.

MY OPINION

                                          In my opinion I liked one commercial but not the other one. In the first one the technique used was endorsement I liked how they used a famous celeberty to persuade the people to buy the product. The celeberty Ashton Kutcher makes the camera stand out than any other camera sold out which will make people die for that product. I think they're targetting fans of the actor in the video. I think so because why would they waste there money on him if they just did an ordnary person they wouldn't get as much people. The brand is taking advantage of a celeberty to bring in more customers.
                             Even though I like persuasive commercials I don't like the dog one. The commercial is just focusing on the cuteness of the dog not how lonely or starving they are. I bet there are plenty of other dogs that are not in shape why can't they use that. They can focus on how out of shape they are so people can feel bad for them. I think this commercial is targeting animal lovers because they're showing how cute they are and it will be a better chance of getting a animal lover than a regular person. The people who likes animals won't just stand there and watch them suffer.

Super Croc The Beast

                

INTRODUCTION

Super Croc attacks a dinosaur

                Beware the wrath of the Super Croc. Roamer of the waters.No animal was safe as long as the creature terrerises the land.  Whatever stands in it's way gets devoured and dismantled.Turtles hide in there shells hunched behind a rock trembled in fear. It can take down even the most stongest dinosaurs like the T-rex . It has shown no mercy to any of his opponents. It learks under the water searching for it's next prey to swallow and elliminate. Daring and fearless it attacks even the most powerful creatures ever to roam the land.

Super Croc showing of it's body

 MY

THOUGHTS    

         In my opinion I think that a Super Croc can take down dinosaurs easily. In the article ''Super Croc by Peter Winkler it stated ''It's jaws were designed to grab fish turtles and dinosaurs.'' This tells me that with it's sharp jaws it can fight almost everything that stands in it's way like for instance a T-Rex. Although the species can be easily wiped out by a disaster or desease this creature has made a huge mark in the world.

MY OPINION

              
           Croc  as powerful as they say. I have never seen a reptile so strong and so brave. Unbelievable it is 40 feet long and walked foot on the land over 110 million years ago.Some people say that the Super Croc is fake and a myth. But I think that the Super Croc has lived and walked through the Earth. I believe this is 100 percent true because in the article ''Super Croc'' written by Peter Winkler it states '' We found a fossil of the Super Croc in the dessert.'' This means that the Super Croc is real because we found a fossil of the now known animal as Super Croc.

                            

       

           

    

              

             

                        

The First Emperor

INTRODUCTION

   

               Long ago an ancient Chinise emperor was born in Xi'an China.  He was the first emperor and he was only 13 years old. He was able to create amazing feats but he was ruthless to all of his helpful people. In the website history.com it states ''He created the great wall of China and a lot of people died.''. This means that he is determined and has a lot of success but amongst all his character traits he is cold- hearted and shows no mercy even to his troops and people. In our class blog video it stated ''He created the teracata army with more than 7,000 warriors, archers, calbory, chariotiers, and foot             

MY OPINION

                              According to the information given to me I don't like the emperor. He stabbed his people in the back like a phony. In the article Time For Kids it states ''Qin Shihuang punished his people harshly.'' He punished them just because they made a mistake or didn't obey him. I wouldn't blame them for not obeying him because of his mean laws. Also according to our class blog video he buried his people alive to accompany him in the afterlife.'' Not also is he a bad leader but he was a coward to be alone when he's dead. I always hate people who disrespect others like Qin Shihuang did. Another reason I hate him is because in our class blog video it stated ''When he died he made his wives drink poison to kill themselves.'' This shows me he doesn't care about anyone but himself and is really selfish that he made his people suffer for him.

TOP 10 FACTS OF TERRACOTTA ARMY

10. An army of 8,000 clay soldiers to accompany the emperor

8. Discovered by local farmers while digging for water

7. Each face is unique

6. Height and uniform varies by rank

5. Over 650 horses are part of the army

4. They held real weapons

2. The tomb had rivers

1. But the tomb hasn't been dug up yet

MY THOUGHTS

                 I think there should have been a another emperor instead of Qin Shihuang. If there was a new one a lot of people could've survive. Everyone would have not been forced into harsh labor and disrespectful punishments. But if there was a new emperor we probably would not have the Great Wall of China. I thought that he was a horrible leader and that it should never happen again that a mean emperor ever sows up again
