The copy aims to highlight the brand heritage by taking the consumer back to the brand’s origin era, while also showing it remains current through the choice of music which creates a fun contrast. Twinings Tealand (Italy) – YouTubeīy contrast this KFC ad (#1 in TV) tells a more complex story, one that could easily lack emotive clarity. These are considered alongside the overall emotion that the ad delivers. To illustrate, here are two winning Creative Effectiveness Awards video ad examples examined using the NeedScope AI decoder – decoding the emotion in the visual and music elements. Therefore, music as an element in creative execution must be thought through and work towards the intended message and emotional delivery.īy looking at award-winning campaigns more deeply we see a powerful balance struck where an ad uses a range of visual cues to tell a good story, and the music grounds the ad with emotive clarity. So, music is critical to emotional delivery, even though we might think of video as a visual medium. Other research shows that music alone could evoke 13 distinct feelings across cultures. The emotional impact is instantly blunted. Try turning the music down when you watch your favourite movie. Recent research shows how sound favourably enhances video viewing experiences. This overall delivery may come through elements in the ad other than visual cues. With video ads we want to ensure there is a net effect overall with the emotive delivery. But through this journey, an ad may end up lacking the emotive clarity we want for brand-building purposes. So it is more common to see a wider range of visual cues being used to do this job. Storytelling is the art of creating tensions and contrasts to take viewers on a journey using a range of emotions. This is particularly the case for video ads which often contain complex visual, audio and text arrangements to engage viewers. In practice, this type of emotive clarity is difficult to achieve. In this way, the advertising supports a consistent position for the brand. To maximise investment, brand owners should develop advertising that delivers to a common emotion consistently over time. Whilst ads might have more than one emotion, cohesive ads skew toward a dominant emotion and might also draw from an adjacent emotion in the model too. ![]() The friendly inviting composition of this ad conveys a sense of relaxed inclusivity (in orange), appropriate for a sociable coffee brand like Starbucks. To illustrate, here we see the winning Starbucks UK chilled coffee ad (#1 Print/Outdoor) through the decoder. This helps us understand what specific tonal cues dial the emotion we see in ads and whether these elements work cohesively together and with clarity. The NeedScope AI Decoder tool (based on machine learning) uses the same framework and emotive dimensions to explore the tonality present in advertising. This emotional framework not only applies to brand positioning but also execution. To understand emotion in these terms, we use our NeedScope framework based on universal emotion and six emotive spaces to provide the basis for brand positioning territories. Powerful brands, those to which consumers are highly predisposed, tap deep into these emotive needs that consumers themselves often aren’t even conscious of. Type 2 consciously rationalises Type 1 decisions but is slower and more resource intensive. Type 1 (or System 1), the fast brain, drives most of these decisions through emotion and intuition. Neuroscience shows that our brain operates with two different processes when making choices. These are the deep-seated drives based on how our brains are wired to make decisions. From a brand positioning perspective, the kind of emotion we’re interested in is subconscious emotion. ![]() Emotion also helps build brandsĮmotion is also widely used in brand strategy. Most of our Creative Effective Award winners, if not all, use emotion well. ![]() There are many powerful tools such as facial coding that help reveal this dimension in what is often called ‘emotional advertising’. In this way, we might think of emotion in terms of ‘evocation’ or the emotional reaction to an ad. By tapping into emotions or feelings, brands can harness powerful desires through the stories told in ads. The benefits of engaging consumers emotionally in advertising are well accepted. And consistent tonality in campaigns ensures these successful ads contribute to long-term brand building. Music plays a key role in delivering emotive clarity, aiding the power of storytelling in these winning ads. One of the five themes amongst our 2023 winners, ‘ touch my soul’, highlights how emotions play a strong role in making ads memorable. Kantar’s Creative Effective Awards give us the opportunity to put the spotlight on the role of emotion in effective advertising. ![]() – Chris Henrique ChrisHenrique on Twitter)įeature image courtesy of Boston Beer Co.

Pepsi is also looking to double dip into the seltzer market with Rockstar Energy drinks as well. “The combination of our experience in brewing and developing the best-tasting hard seltzers and hard teas, and MTN DEW, a one of kind multibillion dollar brand, will deliver the excitement and refreshment that drinkers know and love,” said Boston Beer CEO Dave Burwick. This past year Truly launched a brand new variety pack with new flavors: fruit punch, berry punch, tropical punch and citrus punch. Boston Beer first introduced Truly to the masses in 2016. Pepsi has joined forces with the right company to bring this new seltzer collaboration to life. The collaboration seltzer fans have been waiting for?

The two companies will introduce three flavors to the new line of seltzers. The two will create a Hard Mountain Dew or “HARD MTN DEW” that will hit the market in 2022. The Pepsi based product will join forces with Boston Beer Co., who is the maker of Truly Hard Seltzer. Mountain Dew is going to kick it up a notch next year.

The question becomes: Is Toure bound to become another over-hyped young player who disappears when it matters, or is he entering his second season on the verge of an actual breakout? Opportunity in the Packers receiver room isn’t a hurdle. Truly breaking out as a player is when talent develops congruently with a growing opportunity. Physical and mental development are always important keys to taking a meaningful step as a young player. The 25-year-old is now entering Year 2 with an incredible opportunity to carve out a legitimate role as a complementary receiver to Chrsitian Watson and Romeo Doubs in 2023.Īccording to receivers coach Jason Vrable, Toure put on 8-10 pounds during the offseason and is playing fast and confidently to start Year 2. During the preseason, Toure caught nine of 13 targets for 125 yards, averaging 13.9 yards per catch and 9.6 yards per target. He was on the field for 112 offensive snaps. And mastery typically arrives through experience, so on-field reps during the summer will be vital as Toure continues to develop.Ī seventh-round pick out of Nebraska last year, Toure caught five passes for 82 yards and a score over 11 regular-season games as a rookie. Mastering the little details of the position is what creates the ever-elusive consistency. LaFleur and the Packers sound confident in Toure’s ability to run routes and shake loose from coverage, checking one important box. In the most simple description of the job, receivers in the NFL must separate and catch the football. It’s just continuing to get more and more reps.” He has them in his body, he possesses those. “He has the things, the tools necessary, that you look for in terms of being able to separate. “We’ve got to continute to build on those and become more and more consistent along the way, but he’s a guy we definitely have high hopes for,” LaFleur said last week. The next step, like with all young players, is doing the good things consistently. So the cards are definitely stacked against Chicago.The Green Bay Packers want second-year receiver Samori Toure to continue building consistency to his game, but there is confidence in his development so far, especially in terms of his overall ability to separate in the passing game, entering the 2023 season.Ĭoach Matt LaFleur said Toure has “had his moments” during the offseason workout program. Less enviably, Chicago is worst in the league in rushing touchdowns allowed, with 19 on the season. A couple defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: Green Bay comes into the game boasting the fewest passing yards allowed per game in the NFL at 199.3. The losses put Green Bay at 4-8 and the Bears at 3-9. But bettors beware: they are only 1-6 against the spread when favored. Chris Carlin & Chris Canty, in for Greeny, preview Game 1 of the NBA Finals Canty explains. The Packers are the favorite in this one, with an expected 4-point margin of victory. Visit ESPN to view the latest Green Bay Packers news, scores, stats, standings, rumors, and more. QB Trevor Siemian ended up with a passer rating of 121.30. No one had a standout game offensively for Chicago, but they got one touchdown from WR Byron Pringle. The last quarter was a mere formality since it was already 31-10 by the third quarter. Meanwhile, Chicago found themselves the reluctant recipients of an unpleasant 31-10 punch to the gut against the New York Jets this past Sunday. One of the most thrilling moments was Watson's 63-yard TD reception up the middle in the fourth quarter. Dillon, who punched in one rushing touchdown, and WR Christian Watson, who caught four passes for one TD and 110 yards. Despite the defeat, Green Bay had strong showings from RB A.J. The Packers came within a touchdown against the Philadelphia Eagles this past Sunday, but they wound up with a 40-33 loss. Given that both teams suffered a loss in their last game, they both have a little extra motivation heading into this matchup. Green Bay and Chicago will face off in an NFC North battle at 1 p.m. The Green Bay Packers are 10-1-2 against the Chicago Bears since October of 2016, and they'll have a chance to extend that success on Sunday. ![]() However, Yuri on Ice does not depict 'Yuri' pairings and instead portrays a yaoi couple.

While this isn't the first anime with a same-sex couple at the forefront, it's one of the first to present a story that isn't strictly sexual and is mutual. “Their relationship exists somewhere beyond any sexuality, meaning it doesn't fall into the same traps that a lot of yuri and yaoi relationships do. The "Victuuri" ship is known to subvert typical homophobic themes in anime, and instead depicts a relationship that is both progressive and epitomizes equality. Japan's stance on homosexuality is not as progressive as other countries, some areas have not legalized gay marriage and the yaoi genre is known for its fanservice toward female fans. Some even refer to it as a revolutionary change in the genre. It is perhaps one of the most popular MLM ships in the anime genre, mostly due to its positive depiction and canonical status.Ĭritics have praised the relationship as it differs from the strictly sexual gay relationships typically seen in the anime genre. The ship between Victor and Yuuri is the most popular ship within the Yuri!! on Ice fandom, due to being the central relationship in the series. During this speech we get a zoom in of Victor's face and his eyes seem to clear up and shine brighter, implying that he had fallen for Yuuri at that moment. Before the dance battle Yuuri asked Victor to be his coach if he won the dance battle, which is why he came in the end of episode 1, on a (not so) supposed whim. Once he had drank the glasses of champagne, he ended up stripping, dry humping, pole-dancing with fellow skater Christophe Giacometti and having a dance competition with Yuri(o) Plisetsky and Victor Nikiforov, in no particular order. In episode 10, we also find you that at the GPF (Grand Prix Final) - held in Sochi, Russia the previous year - banquet, Yuuri drank 16 glasses of champagne as he was feeling anxious, awkward and depressed after the death of his dog, Vicchan and the failure in the final. In episode 10, before the Grand Prix Final begins, Victor and Yuuri exchange gold rings in Barcelona, Spain. Yuuri rushes over to the kiss and cry to celebrate, and is overcome with surprise at being greeted with a kiss from his coach. Feeling much better after crying, Yuuri executes his free program and shocks the audience by changing his last jump to Victor's signature quadruple flip. This draws out tears from a distraught Yuuri who begs Victor to have more faith in him. With Yuuri's turn fast coming up, Victor is at a loss of how to motivate Yuuri, and decides to pretend to step down as Yuuri's coach. With each ongoing performance, Yuuri is increasingly worked up, which leads Victor to bring Yuuri to the parking lot where the sound of the performances would hopefully not be able to reach them. Victor advises Yuuri to nap until just before the competition, but Yuuri is too worried to get proper rest. In episode 7, it starts off with Yuuri being nervous and tired, having been unable to sleep the night before. Yuuri even named his poodle, Vicchan, after Victor, further showing his great admiration. Yuuri viewed Victor as a role model and dreamed of one day surpassing him. Yuuri is a fan of Victor Nikiforov and was inspired by him to pursue a career in skating. |
