Task 1 (Sue)



1.   Explain what TV advertising is.
·    -  A commercial advertisement on television (usually abbreviated to TV commercial, ad, ad-film, and known in UK as advert, or TV Advert) is a span of television programming produced and paid for by an organization, which conveys a message, typically to market a product or service. Advertising revenue provides a significant portion of the funding for most privately owned television networks. The vast majority of television advertisements today consist of brief advertising spots, ranging in length from a few seconds to several minutes (as well as program-length infomercials). Advertisements of this sort have been used to promote a wide variety of goods, services and ideas since the dawn of television.
2.   View three different contemporary TV adverts and list three key characteristics of them.
·     - Direct Line Advert: Simple & Upbeat Storyline –The ad done more than convey information; it told a story.
·     - Smoking Kills: Character Dialogue to Tell a Story – Changing a message from simple prose to a conversation will give the story life.
·      -Levi Denim: Build an Emotional Connection – The brain identifies an emotional experience as important enough to remember, which in turn resonates with the audience.
