Denotation from just looking at the basics of the advert, we see a busy liverpool street station in London. until one man suddenly bursts into dance as music begins to play music through the PA system at the station. people just watch the man in amazement and soon one person joins in dancing and then another and another until more or less the whole station has joined in dancing to the compilation of songs. the camera shows us shots from afar and right in the middle of the people dancing throughout until the music suddenly stops and the crowd disperces as quickly as it had formed. Conotation the producers clear had a similar idea to that of the sony producers as in to take an ordinary scene and give it somthing completely out of the ordinary by using a flash mob and making all of the people witnessing it just genuine people who were not expecting a flash mob to break out and make their reactions seem genuine to the viewer of the advert. the fact that people joined in to the d...

denotation from this advert which was created in 2005, we can see a rather obscure advert of showing a very plain and quiet looking San Francisco neighborhood which is seemingly disrupted when a huge amount of  colourful bouncy balls start pouring into the streets and make people in the buildings come to the windows of their buildings and just simply be amazed by the spectacle they are witnessing. to which the advert ends with the tag line "color. like no other". connotation when looking at the advert thoroughly the producer had decided to try and make something extraordinary happen to a very ordinary looking neighborhood and they made this by trying to show of the impressive quality of Sony TV's by having something that is difficult to render for a standard TV like lots of small bouncy balls all moving at the same time which is shown off brilliantly in the advert. the street itself could possibly be related to just an ordinary and boring area and the balls mov...

Denotation from this advert we can see that parts of a car are being moved slowly on wards in a form similar to that of a rude Goldberg machine (with no music playing throughout) in a large and plain looking room. with the parts slowly becoming larger and larger until it gets to the point where the fully built car can be seen in shot at which the advert ends with a simple tagline of Connotation from just one look at this advert we are given insight into how tiny some of the components are when it comes to building a car with the tiny nuts and bolts of the car slowly becoming components and then into full and then fully assembled parts of the car makes the whole advert much more interesting and satisfying to watch overall which was possibly the producer and director's intentions for the advert overall. the producers also specifically chose a very plain and colorless room so more of the attention could be used on the flawless movement of the process in the mise-en-scene.

background this advert was made in 1992 by BBH Global and it was highly touted to win awards at the advert equivalent of the Oscars. how ever it was never even nominated that year and they had to settle for one of the lesser awards at the show. denotation this advert show that a man wearing Levis jeans in a suburban garden jumping through multiple gardens and jumping into multiple swimming pools and coming up with the jeans completely dry. he eventually meets a young a pretty woman and proceeds to jump from a diving board with her into a swimming pool as the advert ends. connotation from the advert we can see that the marketing team was trying to sell the jeans as never being able to get wet no matter how many times you get them completely soaked they will come out completely dry. the idea of all the women ogling the man as he walks past them could be seen as the idea that the jeans will make you much more attractive and appealing just because of the jeans.

the other week, I found myself watching adverts I used be forced to watch because it was live TV and none of my family knew how to use the remote as the TV was brand new. after watching a few adverts I was suddenly reminded of an awful advert from the early 2010s,  featuring a Ringo Starr who was probably desperate for money and any form of publicity. Seeing this advert though, he clearly deserved better. the advert tries to use humor and irony but it falls flat on its face. The whole advert has very little to do with trainers and the entire advert feels like they were filming for a completely different advert until Sketchers somehow hijacked it and broke any creditably the former Beatles drummer had left if any at all.

In the clip we are first introduced to maleficent, possibly one of disney's best ever drawn villians. The target audience for the film was much younger children and disney had clearly taken this to heart and desisinged her charcter to be a very distinctive and easy to recognise villan and to do this the artists decided to give her a very tall and slender look with very pale grey skin and devil-like horns on her head which would be easy to recognise to much younger veiwers. The way the prodcers also gave her a very soft voice would give the code that maleficent is a cunning and deceptive villain overall

in this famous scene from star wars. i clearly noticed that George Lucas had clearly chosen to use the idea that Darth Vader could be intimidating just by the pure idea that nobody could possibly imagine at the time what he looked like underneath the mask purely designed to intimidate the audience by using codes such as having very sharp and angular edges on the helmet and making him wear entirely black to give him an air of mystery around him. Lucas had clearly intended to add to this intimidation factor by having most of the shots in this scene from table height and making Vader stand while all his commanders sit around the table giving a code that Vader is dominant over all of them and  commands respect towards him.

when looking at the character of Heath Ledgers joker, I re-watched this scene and was completely taken back by how the producers had managed to capture the pure insanity that came with casting a new actor to play the joker, Ledger had previously locked himself in a room for extended periods of time with no hardly any access to food or water so he slowly drove himself mad and make his performance the most genuinely believable joker for the target audience of the film that was around 16 - 20 year old's with a good interest in action and superhero films. It should also be noted how Christopher Nolan made the jokers costume and make up very messy and untidy to give the joker a code of being much more wild and unpredictable.

I was recently looking through a selection of older films and I came across one of my favourite scenes from my favourite films, "full metal jacket" and one of the very first spoken scenes in the film is the introduction of gunnery sergeant Hartman (played by the late R lee Ermey) who is ripping into the recruits and separating the men from the boys. the particular way stanly Kubrick used Hartman's stature as a code that he is dominate over them really adds to the scene which was completely improvised by Emery who used to be in the marines himself and really showed terror toward the recruits which is why I give the scene a 10/10
