A:advertising
S:standards
A:authority


persuasive tools:

Humour: (parody/stereotypes) makes it more enjoyable to decode as multiple layers of meaning are added.

Shock: grabs the attention of the consumer and the media to increase the effectiveness of the advertisement.(charities usually use this in their adverts to create empathy)

In this NHS advertisement shock more importantly the use of the slogan "get unhooked"










Stereotypes: they are useful because they allow a short cut to add immediate meaning and certain stereotypes bring certain messages.

Intertextuality: when a media product references another media product to create immediate meaning.

music: used to grab audiences attention as an emotive device.

famous people: celebrities are used to endorse products

repetition/slogans: repeating adverts id very effective. slogans, images and brand names can be repeated

reward and punishment: physical rewards like 'buy one get one free' or mental rewards like '

value messages: many adverts have a message about life that cannot be denied.

Maslow's Hierarchy of needs: least important- self actualisation
                                                                            esteem

                                                                            safety
                                                 most important- physiological

Surrealist: built from all different types of imagery to create meaning
