Step 1:

Choose and view one of the following ad campaign commercials:

Dove: Real Beauty Sketches

Smokey II: Prevent Wildfires. Receive a Bear Hug

Apple: iPhone X- Animoji Yourself

P&G: Thank You, Mom- The Winter Olympics

Dos Equis: Most Interesting Man in the World

Step 2:

Thoroughly discuss the following questions:

Did your chosen campaign involve primarily central or peripheral route persuasion? Why do you believe the campaign designers chose that route for their campaign?

Did the campaign effectively use the four elements of persuasion (the communicator, the message, how the message is conveyed and the audience)? In discussing the use of the four elements of persuasion, be sure to address the strengths and weaknesses of the campaign.

How would you change the campaign to make it more persuasive? You must support your suggested changes with social psychological theory or research (from the textbook or outside resources) and provide appropriate reference(s).
