3 Freaky adverts in our Group

In this lesson we were put into groups of three and in my group there is Tana and Gus, They both said that they will try a bit of everything in the advert and Tana said that he is alright at Photoshop and also they they both have props such as a freaky mask and fake blood so we could be able to make out advert more freaky and gory.
Also we had to fill in a sheet that we were given that told us about sound in advertising:


The first advert that we chose out of the three was called 'Little Baby's Ice Cream "This is a special time" this advert is about baby ice cream and on the advert it is showing a man eating his head that was made out of ice cream. The group that i am in thinks that this advert is freaky because he is eating his own head and is covered in ice cream. Through out the advert someone talking all the way through which is called non diegetic sound because you cant see the person that is speaking and there is music box creepy music playing through the hole advert. Through out the hole advertisement it used a close up shot of the mans face.

the second advert that we found was called 'Missing our deals will hunt you' this advert is about phones for you and in the advert it is showing a woman in a car park walking to her car and then there is this little girl appears and keeps following her and then when the woman's in her car the little girls face is at the window next to her. At the start of the advert there is creepy music happening and it gets more and more intense like something is going to happen and then the little girl just appears behind the woman and then appears at the window and speaks to her about the phone without moving her lips so it's like she is using mind control powers to talk to her and it is called non diegetic shot and in the advert they use a different range of shots such as: Wide shot, close up and medium close up.

The last advert that we chose was called 'Baby doll' this advert is about PlayStation 3 and a doll sat in front of it moving and crying. The group thought this was freaky because it is of a baby doll is moving and crying. Also when the baby cries you can see games in her eyes and then when it stops crying the drops of water go back into its eyes. The baby and the PlayStation are in a room all by there self with only white walls around them and lights on the sealing. Also at the end of the advert it shows the PS3 levitating from the ground and then below it some text appears saying 'Play Beyond.' They use quite a few different types of shots in this advert such as: Wide shot, Mid shot, Medium close up, Close up, Extreme close up and Over the shoulder shot. This advert uses diegetic sounds when you can see and hear the baby's mouth opening and it also uses non diegetic sound when you can see the back of the baby and its still making noises but you can see it moving.

  1. Good notes Simeon, you could add a little more detail and terminology to your advert analysis.
