Sammie Tsang Lok Man---analysis


My first impression of this picture is it is very attractive, because it seems to be an advertisement of food and a woman wearing a sleeveless garment who shows her beautiful body to others.

This message is from Kallogg’s Special K, the content of the message is to attract people to buy their brand’s cereal, and the receiver is the people who want to reduce their weights. The method of sending this message is using a poster to sell their brand’s cereal for breakfast. The word they use in the poster is informal. They want to send this message to people who want to lose their weight, attracting them after eating this food for breakfast everyday, people can lose their weight easily.

In this advertisement, they use red colour and a larger font size to project those three words, ‘Be a Loser’, it is especially attracting people to read the poster continually. The woman who wears the sleeveless garment in the poster owns a big space, it is also attracting people to this advertisement, just like saying to people, if people use this cereal for the breakfast, they will be as sexy as this woman. To be more convincing, there is some additional information saying that if people use this as breakfast, they can enjoy normal meal without caring about weight.

The end of this poster has an idiom, which is negative if you use it normally. But in this poster, you will find that this idiom is positivly asking people to lose weight, which is a very interesting usage of idiom.
