Dove: 'My Beauty, My Say' campaign
This advert shows a wide range of
women from different ethnic backgrounds, ages, body shapes and languages, all
being strong and empowered; this represents all women as equal and beautiful in
their own unique way. It tackles issues surrounding racism, sexism and
stereotypes; It shows that though we are all individuals, we are all equal as
well, creating a very positive and empowering representation.
Pepsi Max advert
This advert clearly locates
London by featuring red buses and London accents. Due to the advanced technology
used, this positively represents London as a place of technological innovation,
somewhere creative and interactive. The advert also presents a range of social
groups and ethnicities in the same situations at the bus stop, giving equal
screen-time to different people, representing diversity and equality. It is
very relatable to viewers who live in London due to the familiar location.
Macmillan Cancer Support
This advert carries a strong message as well as representing the issue of cancer in a positive and optimistic light. It depicts the experience of cancer as a challenging time, but shows the importance of friendship and hope. It also shows diversity and equality through the different ethnicities featured.
From this research I can conclude that adverts are most successful when they incorporate positive and recognisable representations of a wide range of people, events and issues. I can feature this in my own advert by featuring a wide range of actors from different social groups and backgrounds, and presenting universally recognisable events, such as sport.
