Television and Media - America Needs TV Advertising :: Argumentative Persuasive Topics

America Needs TV Advertising           Television would not be in the place it is at once had it not been for commercials.  Commercials not only provide a much undeniable break from the shows we watch, but also gives paying advertisers a chance to get on their products.  With a large audience honoring, businesses spend untold amounts of money to depict sure their commercials are the best. The worst nightmare however for an company is for a couch potato to not look at their commercial, but kind of change the channel.  To remedy this advertisers strive to capture the attention of the audience as soon as possible.         If the audience does not like what they see at heart the first ten to fifteen seconds then most likely they go away change the channel.  Miller Lite Miller Time commercials counteract this ingeniously.  The distinctive plainspokening music create a light and humorous fancy and instills curiosity in the viewer about what will happen next.  The frizzly and sometimes absurd characters give the audience a well deserved laugh.  For example, a man obviously dressed up as a beaver gnaws a log cabin, and then everything wooden and goes after a man holding a Miller Lite beer can.  One does not think too much about the ad (for if one did he would wonder why do these commercials sometimes have nothing to do with their product?) but instead gets caught up in the comedy.  The humor in these ads immediately captures their audience immediately and leaves them with a smile on their faces.         vox populi good is also what makes Burger Kings commercials so attractive.  The typical Burger King commercial features 60s or 70s dance music accompanied by various shots of burgers.  The music, if the audience likes it, pulls them in, watching it sometimes scarcely for the music.  That is most often the case with my brother who sha kes his incise thing to the music while not fully realizing that the thing which motivates him is simply inanimate and unhealthy food.  The implicit message the advertisers send it seems, is that if you are move in your seat at home, how more will you love them in person?         Attraction comes in the form of nostalgia, a more knowing and hence less used part of advertising.  Chilis commercials with singing tamales on an open frontier uses music like the Burger King ads but creates a way of nostalgia rather than one of excitement.
