  2. 1. The kid and Findus Fraich’Frites.

    2. A Findus Fraich’Frites snack.

    3.Demographic: Boys and girls kid at 7-11 years old. Psychographic: Grands' beloved grandchildren, spoiled grandchildren.

    4.The boring expression of the kid being spoiled by her grandmother.

    5. It depends on people, some may get it some may not. For me, yes, the non-verbal cues in the picture does contribute to non-verbal message because the expression of the girl. Based on my understanding, I assume that her granny always make foods to her and was asked to eat but now with this Findus Fraich’Frites, she can get her own snack without having her granny to make one for her.

  3. 1. The granny and the children.

    2. Findus Fraich’ Frites ( French fries by Findus product)

    3. Demographic: Young grandchildren aged 6 to 12 years old.
    Psychographic: Grandparents, parents.

    4. The needs in this ad is shown through the kid who is visiting her grandmother. The gratification is shown when the grandmother is excited and happy to see her grandchildren.

    5. Yes it does. The execution of both emotions from the grandmother and the children contributes to a non-verbal message that can be understood by its target audience. From my interpretation, the message that this ad is trying to tell is the french fries is as good as how the granny does it, but without the granny involve in it.

  4. 1 the communicators of this ads are that kid and Findus Fraich Frites.

    2 the product that being advertised is fast food or instant food like Findus Fraich' Frites

    3 the demographic characteristics of the audience is kids around 6 to 10 years old that love fast food very much,and the psychographic characteristics of the audience for this ads is to show that eating fast food especially fries frequently is not good for health because it contain unhealthy ingredients that are not needed in our body.

    4 the face expression of the kids towards her grandmother,which is she actually not in a good mood.

    5 yes, the non-verbal cues in the picture contribute to the non-verbal messages. audience can understand just by look at the
    reaction of the kid when her grandmother pinch her chicks,and the ads also shows the combination of two generation which is the grandmother and the kid
