Satire In The SX Commercial
The SNL commercial expresses satire by discussing the pepsi commercial in a sarcastic way, also known as imitating it. This way, people will either find it humerous or incredibly rude, which is always the outcome in quality humerous videos. As for the SNL commercial, they even went out of their way to get people who look very similar, or not at all, to the original commercial. Then, it displayed what might have happened behind the scenes as the commercial was being filmed. This showed the director calling different people asking them if they thought his idea was as good as he imagined, saying how Kendall just hands over a pepsi and everything magically became united and happy. However, this did not go as expected and everyone hated the idea,

    Medicine commercials are easy to satire because they are all repetitive and follow the same story line. In a medicine commercial the problem is discussed. The Doctor then tells you about this new drug that will fix everything. In the last part people are saying how they have overcome the problem they were facing. In the parody of Taylor Swift multiple satire elements were used. Exaggeration was used in how much everyone hated Taylor and would get dizzy at the sounds of her songs. Another exaggeration was the doctors name being Dr. David Doctor. Incongruity was used in the very end when the girl danced across the back of the stage, behind the doctor. The point of the commercial is that America hates Taylor Swift but loves her music. The point…

    According to Robert Scholes, author of On Reading a Video Text, commercials aired on television hold a dynamic power over human beings on a subconscious level. He believes that through the use of specific tools, commercials can hold the minds of an audience captive, and can control their abilities to think rationally. Visual fascination, one of the tools Scholes believes captures the minds of viewers, can take a simple video, and through the use of editing and special effects, turn it into a powerful scene which one simply cannot take his or her eyes from. Narrativity is yet another way Scholes feels commercials can take control of the thoughts of a person sitting in front of the television. Through the use of specific words, sounds, accompanying statements and or music, a television commercial can hold a viewer's mind within its grasp, just long enough to confuse someone into buying a product for the wrong reason. The most significant power over the population held by television commercials is that of cultural reinforcement, as Scholes calls it. By offering a human relation throughout itself, a commercial can link with the masses as though it's speaking to the individual viewer on an equal level. A commercial In his essay, Scholes analyzes a Budweiser commercial in an effort to prove his statements about the aforementioned tools.…

    Funny or Die uses ridicule to point out how hyperbolic and fooling the animation is in the Chipotle commercial. For example, in the original commercial, the animated scarecrow happily chops up some peppers, and makes a Chipotle bowl for a customer. The audience finds this cute, and begins to see Chipotle as a nicer and healthier institution. Anyone that knows of Chipotle knows they use meat, yet vegetables have a healthier image to the consumer. The audience will laugh, yet deep down they’ll feel Chipotle, and other fast food restaurants have attempted to delude them. This will make them feel a kind of mistrust towards food ads, accomplishing Funny or Dies goal of making the audience not choose their food just because of ads.…

    On September 13, 2008, two female politicians were standing behind a blue curtain, and two American flags were behind them. In front of the ladies were two microphones. One woman resembled Hillary Clinton dressed in a blue dress representing the Democratic Party, and she has a bob hairstyle and a Barack Obama button on her.

Both of these ladies were giving a Nonpartisan Message to the people. Throughout the message, the politicians address sexism and how it plays a part in political campaigns. Most viewers do not remember the whole address; they mostly remember…

    With the closing of the “post-racial” America of the Obama years and the inauguration of the Trump presidency the untreated wounds of American society have attained new levels of visibility. The “dog-whistle” racism which forms the base of the New Jim Crow is rapidly crumbling, exposing a virulent white supremacy no longer able to legitimize itself behind the fiction of racial “colorblindness.” In such periods of social unrest the power of racial representation is critical. Beyond providing a snapshot of the prevailing attitudes and morality of the artistic culture, in their most subversive form such representations challenge dominant sectors of society to interrogate the myths they have constructed to oppress despised populations.…
