This is an advert for One Direction's movie entitled '1D: This Is Us'. One Direction's agency created this advertisement for One Direction and their management. Music by One Direction is used to attract the attention of fans of the boyband. Using the boys' voices also attracts attention to the ad as people will recognise them and will want to know why they're on the screen, becoming instantly interested. Another creative technique is using news reader's voices as an older generation might look up, thinking that the news or something important is on. Bright colours are also used to make the screen stand up. Bright colours also make people look at the screen that the advert is displayed on. Different people might understand this message differently as there is a lot going on. The advert will make a fan cry, laugh and sing along. They would love it as they are a fan of the boyband. The advert will make them want to go and see this film immediately. Whereas, someone who is not a fan might look at it and hate it. They might think it's just a way to make money or it's just plain 'stupid'. But, on the other hand, someone who is not a fan might see it and be intrigued. They might want to find out about the stories the advert teases you about. In the advert, it features a part where Zayn Malik buys his family a house and they are so pleased with it. That part may trigger your emotions and it will make you want to see the film even more. Many different emotions are triggered by this ad - sadness, happiness, excitement, etc. This is another creative technique used in the advert. The lifestyle of 5 boyband members are represented here and this advert is just a sneak peak into their lives and what they're like. It shows us how they live their lives and what goes on in everyday for them. Family values are omitted from this advert when they boys start talking about their family and how important it is to stay close to them and never forget where you come from, no matter what happens. The boys' own point of view are represented and shown accurately and very clearly. We get a short look into their lives, values and points of view very simply. This message is being shown because One Direction have a movie coming out and it's important for that movie to reach the public successfully. The movie needs press and publication for it to become successful. It's an advert for a movie which is expected to break records and do really well.
