Tea advertisementsBy Tom Finch

PG Tips settings

The setting and environment for this PG Tips advert fluctuated as they went from a train station, to walking in the country and then finally to there grandmothers house where they sat down to enjoy the tea. This shows that the tea can help relaxation at the end of a long journey or hard working day.

PG Props

The most common prop in this advert would be the “monkey” who represents one of the characters.

They also use wigs and dresses for the characters nans/grandmothers.

They also used a lot of suit cases to represent that they are working hard to get to there destination.

PG Tips costumes

As it was said in the last slide the costume used for the grans consisted of a two wigs and two dresses for each of the grandmothers. This was to make them look older and look as if they where actually the main characters grandmothers

PG Tips Makeup

The makeup as used for the gran costume mostly consists of eye shadow ,lipstick and nail varnish. This was to show that they are feminine characters.

PG tips movement

They are jumping with excitement on there journey .This shows that they are exited to see there grans and drink the tea.

PG Tips Camera work/framing

At first they used a mid shot to show the monkey coming out of the baggage area as the music starts to show him and only him doing this, a long shot as they are walking toward the train This shows that the distance from them to the train and it explains why they are hurrying. There is a close shot as monkey’s face gets stuck in the train door to get a close up of this happening. Then there are a few distance shots to show them walking through the country. This is followed by a mid shot to show the grans opening the door. And ends with a wide shot to show them all sitting there drinking the tea.

PG Tips Angles

The angles as shown in this advert consist of:

A front angle to show monkey exiting the baggage area. Side angles to show them getting on the train. A cornered angle to show them walking over the bridge. A behind over shoulder angle to show the grans answering the door. And a angle to the side to show a full room view of the characters drinking.

PG Tips Editing

The only editing involved in this advertisement was cutting to other scenes like from the train station to the country side. Also the music.

PG Tips sound

All of the sound is diegetic as the characters in the advert can hear it. E.g. they are singing along to the music.

PG Tips Rhythm

The Rhythm of the shots in this advert is very fast paced as the shots go from one to the other very quickly. E.G. they cut from the train station to the country very quickly.
