Q1 Do you agree that humour content in advertisement leads to better results? Support your view with examples.

Explanation of statement

Examples

Answer : Prior investigations of the impact of humor on advertising message comprehension have generally found humorous commercials to be no more effective than comparable serious messages. This study re-examines humor's influence by focusing on type of humor measurement (manipulated vs. perceived) and humor location in the advertisement. Findings indicate that humor (in the form of a one-line joke) does promote message comprehension, and offer support for information processing and operant conditioning

Q2 Experts have found that consumers often respond to messages in a hierarchical order of behaviour. Throw light on communication response hierarchy in this context.

Answer : A consumer is the ultimate user of a product or service. The overall consumer market consists of all buyers of goods and services for personal or family use, more than 270 million people (including children) spending trillions of dollars in the United States as of the late 1990s.

Q3 Explain the role of a media planner and media buyer.

Q5 “Kids are the new age customers”. Do you agree with this statement? Explain Brat Power in this connection.

Answer : Some kids can get whatever they want by screaming at their parents until they give in. "I want a pony" is one common demand of these types.

Q6 Write short notes on:

a) Stereotyping in advertisement

Answer : Marketers are constantly seeking ways to make their products more easily identifiable to specific groups of end users. In some cases, they may intentionally or unintentionally use stereotyping to show a product as appealing to their desired target market or in an attempt to interject humor into the ad. Advertising stereotypes are often race- or gender-based in nature.

Child Gender Roles

b) Regulation governing Broadcast Media Advertising
