Midterm Assignment



A) Pantene Pro-V: The girl in this ad seems to be ready for the picture to be taken of her. She is all done up and her hair is perfect. The only problem is she is not looking at the camera. She seems to be distracted by someone off to the side. The girl is done up using the product line of Pantene Pro-V being advertised. Having the girl as the center of the advertisement really ads to the advertisement because people may want to look just like her. Her hair is flawless and is very shiny.
B) Dolce & Gabbana: The image that has the most power in this advertisement is the man holding down the women in the front. This advertisement is for clothes and does not seem to be advertising for clothes in anyway. Most of the people in this advertisement are not wearing clothing. All of the men surrounding the women seem to just be watching over her being almost abused. This is a very controversial advertisement and is no longer allowed to be used in America as an advertisement. Because the main focus is on these two people, and there is no copy explaining what the advertisement is for, makes me believe that it was not a very successful advertisement in trying to get a point across.
