The scenario in the commercial is warm and humored.\u00a0 When the lady kissed the delivery man, the sad and lonely look in the lady\u2019s eyes touch the audience which is essentially funny in a way. The whole idea is very creative; therefore, it is impressive for the\u00a0consumers. This ad successfully seized people\u2019s feelings, hence affected people\u2019s attitude towards DHL.\u00a0 It might also influence consumers\u2019 behavioral attitudes.<\/p>\n<p>Another fantastic advertisement here.<\/p>\n<p>[youtube]https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Um9KsrH377A[\/youtube]<\/p>\n<p>This is a commercial for Pantene.\u00a0 Instead of showing how great your hair will look after using the shampoo directly, the commercial allegorically tells you a touching story about how a deaf-mute girl became an excellent violin player. I think the story is inspiring and they present it pretty well, but I don&#8217;t see the relevance of it with Pantene, it doesn&#8217;t emphasize their own product in there. However, I think it is still quite effective, people will definitely remember this advertisement. Moreover, it creates a good image of the company that they care about making people to realize their dreams and living up to their true potential.\u00a0At the end, the subscript means \u201cPantene, You can shine.\u201d It is likely that the customers will just connect the meaning they received from the ad to its brand.\u00a0 Hence, it becomes \u201cPantene brings you confidence and make you shine!\u201d\u00a0 I would think this commercial did an excellent job in building up affective attitudes towards the product.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here is an interesting advertisement of DHL.
