Memorable Television Adverts

One of the most memorable television adverts would have to be the Dairy Milk Gorilla ad. The reason for this is because it came out so many years ago however it still remains freshly memorable to me. As the video starts we hear the famous song by Phil Collins 'In The Air Tonight' and we see a gorilla appear on the screen as it is on a close up of its face. We see a few expressions on its face from the start as it gives a close up to his nose making it looking like he is sniffing. From the 50th second the shot starts zooming out and the gorilla clicks his neck and all of a sudden starts playing the drums. As it is already known, Phil was a great drummer and the people who made the advert may have wanted to make it look like it was also inspired by the man himself by making a gorilla play the drums.



This advert was also very memorable. It is relatively new however I feel as if people will remember this advert for the future to come. It starts off with a sort of macho looking man wearing only boxer shorts and as he is walking we can see that some people are beginning to stare at him and as he is walking near a girl he slants his shoulder down towards her in a motion and then he travels off the shot for a moment and comes back with a whiskey glass in his hand. What makes this ad memorable for is how the man is so calm and is walking around as if he has no worry in the world.



What's memorable about this ad is the 'zingy' toy. It is a computerised toy in the ad and does many movements throughout the advert. We see that it is made to look as if it is a human as it is doing realistic things such as using a hairdryer and ironing clothes on the 21st second. From this advert the company have started making real zingy toys for customers to purchase.



This advert for me was quite memorable as it was christmas based. As everyone knows Christmas is a very auspitious aucation and it is known as a time of happiness. This advert contradicts that though as it is about a snowman with a snowgirl, as the advert goes on she leaves and we see that the snowman starts getting sad whilst the occasion of christmas is going. After many days going on the snowman comes back into contact with the snowgirl at the end and they are both happy once again.


This advert is also one of the most memorable adverts I have seen in my time. It was made to perfection to promote a Honda car. As we see here are so many things that take place in this 2 minute advertisement, the camera manages to pan through the whole process, there are all pieces of the cars interior and exteriors sections that all meet each other and end up making it look as if they have all  met each other to make the car by the end of the video. After doing some research I found out that it took the producers 9 months before they had even started filming the advert to plan and test the equipment so we can clearly tell that a lot of thought and effort had gone into making this ad.


I believe that this advert will be memorable to pretty much every person living in the UK that has access to a television. It is about two or three years old and I'm sure that not many people have forgotten about it. It was an advert to promote the company 'Go Compare', the producers must have thought they need something fresh out the box that will stick in the audiences minds and they surely produced something that did. However it was done in the worst possible way whatsoever as they had an opera singer to just hit high notes throughout the advert which definitely annoyed many people and still does.



This advert for 'Compare The Market' was also memorable to me. As the producers wanted to promote their business by having a good idea which was fresh outside the box they decided on making a computerized meerkat. This worked off quite well in my opinion as it wasn't as annoying as the Go Compare man. The computerized meerkat has a french accent which would work to stick in to the audiences' minds. The techincal strenghts of this ad were that they were many cuts between the shots which didn't make it look boring at all.

This 'Barclay Card' advert is a very memorable advert as there is something very creative to promote the Card. As we see a man go into his apartment elevator he jumps onto a rollercoaster seat, from there the journey begins, he goes on a rollercoaster ride around his whole city and there are many different type of camera shots to enhance as he is travelling such as zooms and long shots to show the whole scenery. To promote the card we see the rollercoaster make a little stop when he gets his food and he pays for it using the Barclay's Card.



This was a great advert that was released not too long ago. It was to promote the Turkish Airlines Plane company and what a way to promote it by using two legends of their own sports included in one of their advertisements. As the advert begins we see a kid with a ball enter one of the areas in the plane and he see's Lionel Messi and then he wishes for Messi to sign his football however it gets interupted by Kobe Bryant as he is doing a trick with a basketball and then Messi tried to woo the kid by doing a trick with a football then the two are at war by doing different tricks to persuade the kid as he is stuck in the middle however at the 40th second of the video an air hostess asks the kid if he would like some ice cream and he decides to take it leaving the two legends on their own.


This advert for me is the most memorable advert that I have seen in my time. As it is an advert to promote Nike Football what better way to promote it by using the worlds best players.It starts by two teams in the tunnel Brazil and Portugal about to come out however Figo asks the referee for the ball and puts it down and ole's Ronaldo from Brazil, from here the action starts as brazilian players react by trying to get the ball back and they all go backstage and start the war by skilling each other up. The song used is also very catchy
