Now use your notes to write a report on the relationship between the colours and the model's moods in one of the advertisements. Use Millie's table and report on page 32 to help you.
Sample writing (I)
The girl in the advertisement is wearing a green T-shirt and a yellow skirt. Green represents energy and nature. Maybe she feels tired and thinks green can make her feel more energetic. Yellow represents warmth and can also remind people of a warm sunny day. Maybe she likes yellow because it is the colour of the sun.
The girl is also wearing a hat with an orange flower on it. Orange brings people joy and warmth. The girl's blue shoes show that she is relaxed.
I think this girl is cheerful and friendly. She prefers warm, energetic and calm colours to strong colours.
I like this advertisement because it makes me feel warm and reminds me of the summer holidays.
Sample writing (II)
The man in the advertisement is wearing an orange T-shirt and blue trousers. This interesting because these two colours have different meanings. Orange represents joy and can cheer you up if you are sad. Blue represents sadness and calm. I think he is very happy, but he also looks very busy and anxious so he needs to calm down.
His glasses are black, which represents power and trust. Maybe the man wants to show his power in order to let others believe in him and buy the mobile phone. His shoes are white, which represents calm and peace. It balances the powerful black.
I do not think this is a good mobile phone advertisement because most people would rather relax and feel calm than be busy like the man in the advertisement. It seems that with such a mobile phone, you will be as busy as he is.
