Lunch Spank Commercial Analysis

934 Words4 Pages

The commercial that DEVOUR made called lunch spank is a commercial that features comedy in a controversial aspect. The man talks to his food intimately and in a sexual way talking about how good it is supposed to entice the customer talking about just how good it is. It also grabs a target audience such a millennials because of the wackiness of the commercial itself. The weird but attention grabbing humor aspect is something that most millennials are enticed by. It is quite effective in persuading customers to buy the product because of the mixed comedy, questionability, and weirdness.
The commercial starts off with a man eating his lunch on his brake. He notices how good his food is then starts to talk about it. He describes his food but then …show more content…

They mentioned the same similarities that I noticed with the humor based around subliminal messages. They also noted that it is a marketing tactic due to the “underperformance” of the product itself. They also noted that the aim is toward “male viewers aged 25-35”. With all of that information as well men that are 25-35 are millennials which I had stated were the target group of this ad. Another cite Agency Spy (http://www.adweek.com/agencyspy/publicis-seattle-gets-raunchy-in-first-campaign-for-kraft-heinz-devour-meals/114248 Author, Patrick Coffee) gets a direct quote from the brand manager Molly White who said “Finally, there’s a product that gives people what they want: real taste to fulfill real cravings.” Repeats the theme of subliminal …show more content…

Even though the food itself its advertised well the humor keeps the viewer wanting more. The common phrase “Sex Sells” definitely applies to this ad with a nice chunk of ads today keeping this reoccurring theme. Even with all of this ad’s questionable marketing tactic they are none the less effective ones that use sex, humor, and mind tricks to get you to buy their products and also might get you to spank your lunch if it’s really that

    Sex is used in this advertisement as a seductive or erotic tool [visual seduction] to draw interest to the cheeseburger. Besides being an effective tool to increase the profitability of Carls Jr, and its overall food products, the sexual displays and innuendos have absolutely no relation to the food product being advertised. Coincidentally, sex tends to be much more appealing in media advertisement due to the extremely efficient nature of visual medium. In this particular ad, if you were to hide the burger it would become indistinguishable from a ‘Victoria’s Secret’ advertisement! In this situation it may even become necessary to ask what is being sold; the art of advertising sex appeal is closer to suggesting the possible outcome to its consumers rather than delivering the full (sexual) ideal.

  • Testimonial Was The Chosen Fallacy For This Commercial

    In the commercial there was a pregnant woman getting an ultrasound check up for her baby. But to the right of the women there was (what we assume to be) her husband who was eating doritos during the ultrasound. Because of this the baby was shown in the ultra sound to be trying to grab the doritos and the husband was messing around with the baby moving the dorito around with his hand. The wife got mad and threw the dorito and the baby came out of the wife for the tasty dorito. This all shows emotional appeal because of how funny it was and I think it was an effective way to persuade customers to buy doritos because if a baby who never had a dorito in its life goes out of its way to come out of the women and eat the dorito then dang it must be a really good dorito.

    Marketers tie in the logos appeal by using a simple yet logical catch phrase, “You’re not you when you’re hungry.” Everyone can relate to a moment where they have been so hungry that they became irritable; subsequently proving, it is common sense that hunger can alter a person’s behavior. Obviously, the timing for a commercial with this theme is perfect to broadcast during the Super Bowl considering, everyone is already talking about football which is the theme of the entire commercial. The creators of snickers appeal to the emotions of the audience in a comical way. For instance, Betty White is shown being attacked into the mud by middle aged man; she immediately gets up and participates in classic smack talk.

    ads have become a lot more daring over the years. This highlights a key historical context that as time goes on, people get used to things and boundaries can be pushed. This stems from a pathos response that allows the viewer of these commericals to become more open to it and less surprised with each viewing. This allows Carl’s Jr. to keep the viewer hooked until next time and the boldness of it all allows the viewer to always be able to remember it. That is what allows Carl’s Jr. to survive today among such sharp competition from McDonalds and Burger King.
