3 Pony Advert analysis

Pony advert Review



Media Forms

This advert starts off by showing the attractive sunny atmosphere which almost looks like an island. This sets off the mood of the audience by thinking it is going to be a calm advert. This creates individuality of the pony.
The advert uses graphics which the main focus is the dancing pony. The lighting seems to be a very soft subtle colour which brings out the more 'alive' sort of perspective of the pony. The audience would never expect there to be a dancing pony in this advert which creates a lot of amusement. The camera angles used in this advert are mostly mid- shots and close- ups which gives us a better view on the pony and its surroundings. The pony seems to be a very brown with a bit of white colour. This shows the normal colour of a pony and makes it look more real. There is diegetic sound at the beginning of the advert which is more realistic. The diegetic sounds are of the ocean, birds and waves which again creates a more realistic and breezy feel for the audience. Once the non- diegetic sound comes in, the audience would jump as it appears to be unexpected and sudden.

Media institutions

The company behind the production of this advert are a mobile company called 3. 3 is a mobile network company in which they sell a lot of offers for people that join them. The way that the institution has been portrayed is in the form of a pony. The pony shows a lot of movement in which the audience would show a lot of interest in the 3 company. The inter titles at the end of the advert which reads' Silly stuff. It matters'. This shows that the institution has an idea of what the audience would feel/think while watching the advert and they even imply that it is 'Silly' but it matters. This also attracts more attention towards the advert because they are promoting their company by making their taglines catchy for the audience.

Media Audience

This '3' advert uses the main humourous absurd object being the pony. This advert would appeal to a wide audience because it creates humour as well as. This dancing pony shocks the audience but also makes them want to watch it in order to feel entertained. The target audience for this film would mostly be working adults or students but also, because of the childish technique used of the pony, little children would also be interested in watching it. Only people who can afford to join the mobile network would obviously want to keep watching and promoting it. Most people would just watch it for fun to get a laugh out of it because of it's purpose to entertain.

Media Representation

The representation of the pony is seen as a very graphically designed hyper active pony. This pony creates a fun environment by promoting the 3 company in a happy way. The way that the 3 network has been promoted is through the pony itself. By having an entertaining 'dancing' pony, it most likely will catch audiences attentions and therefore, they will get better advertising and people will promote their advert which will also give them more views. 

Analysis of baby & me advert by Evian

Baby & Me advert

This crazy but cute advert is about a man walking on the streets of New York, perhaps and he looks in a car's side mirror only to find out that he is in the form of a baby. The street shown in the advert seems to be a street in New York because, at the start, the big tall buildings are shown which are meant to represent the streets of New York. Techniques used in this advert in terms of camera shots are mid- shots of the adults and babies which gives us a clear view on the people involved in this advert. There are also close- up shots of the people in the advert to show the expressions of them. This advert starts off with no non- diegetic sound which makes it more realistic by having natural sounds as you would hear on the street. Later on in the advert, there is a lot of diegetic sound used and that fits in with the dancing babies and adults. By including diegetic sound when the main part of the advert comes up, it invites the audience more as it makes them want to move along too. The lighting seems to be in low- key lighting which gives a soft yet light feel to the advert

The advert seems to show how Evian water can make you feel even though, it is just normal mineral water. They have decided to use this advert to promote their Water organisation because, they had already known it would go viral and everybody would know about it. An advert like this, would only be promoted in Broadcast and E-media form. This is because, despite that it is a big hit, people would have to find it advertising on TV or on YouTube online.

Print form investigation

Print has changed over the past few years by moving across to E-media. Nowadays, everything is on the internet and most people go on the internet to view posters online and watch film trailers. Like all media forms, Print has evolved over time and Newspapers and posters have been experiencing a decline since 2001. Online advertising has benefited from regular technological advances and has become a mainstream advertising compared to Print. Internet advertising spend grew 37.5% between 2005 and 2008 while Print declined 29.9%. However, the decline of Print has not been made up by growth in online advertising. Changes in the media industry have impacted the two primary components of Print Media in different ways. For a long time, newspapers enjoyed the highest access levels of any Media. This began to change with the introduction of television and the increased usage of it. The nature of the internet makes it impossible to completely replace Print Media. Print media however is one of the oldest forms of advertising methods. It also remains to be one of the most popular forms advertising because it can reach a wider target audience.
