ABC Features State Farm Product Placement in €˜Black-Ish’ Episode ABC Features State Farm Product Placement in ‘Black-ish’ Episode 03.16.2016 The decision to incorporate State Farm Insurance into a storyline in an episode of ABC's Black-ish came organically from the writers' room, and is a good fit for the show, insurance and television marketing officials told Adweek. In the sitcom, advertising executive Dre Johnson (Anthony Anderson) convinces his client, State Farm Insurance, to sponsor his son's basketball team, the "State Farm Good Neighbors." Faced with declining ratings and changing television viewing habits, ABC and Statefarm are just two of many companies and networks experimenting with product placement. RELATED: TV Networks Embrace Binge-Watching Behavior Changes Fox, for instance, partnered with Ford during the original airing of The X-Files, and teamed up with the car company again for the recent reboot by featuring the Explorer Platinum in all six episodes of the first season. Last fall, Fox also worked to incorporate Pepsi into three episodes of Empire. RELATED: Fox to Offer Advertisers More Targeted Ads Last year in a Modern Family episode "Connection Lost," ABC scored points for integrating Apple products seamlessly into the plot in move that was more focused on screen time, and didn't include any paid advertising for the tech company. State Farm received something in return in this case, but both sides agree it was a natural fit. "It didn't feel forced," said Jen Cowan, VP of TV, film and digital series at The Marketing Arm, which worked with ABC and State Farm on the integration. The idea was born in the Black-ish writer' room. "The show had a little nugget of an idea," Meg Smith, senior manager of integrated marketing at Disney-ABC Television Group, told Adweek. "We started meeting with The Marketing Arm and talking about how State Farm can be integrated." State Farm is already deeply involved with basketball. The agency is a brand partner of the NCAA, NBA and WNA, and sponsors little league, travel baseball and local basketball teams. "This just was an extremely natural integration for us," said State Farm Advertising Director Ed Gold. State Farm's didn't seek assurances from ABC because it was pitched the specific episode, Gold said. Smith said the network carefully considers which episodes lend themselves to product placement opportunities. "There are certain shows we would look into integrating into and some we wouldn't," she said. Brief Take: With ad-skipping becoming prevalent, advertisers that can work themselves into a show's main storyline are one step ahead of the game. Read more: Adweek.

  • Modern (Family) Product Placement
    Modern (Family) product placement In hoeverre heeft de mate van integratie van product placement in sitcoms invloed op de aankoopintentie van kijkers en wat is de rol van connectedness en materialisme hierbij?

Dian Mastenbroek 4352912 [email protected] 25 juni 2018 Masterthesis Eerste versie Masterthesis Opleiding Communicatiewetenschap Specialisatie Commerciële Communicatie Radboud Universiteit Nijmegen Begeleider: Dr. R. P. Konig 3 Samenvatting De afgelopen decennia wordt de toekomst van televisiecommercials door adverteerders in twijfel getrokken. Ten gevolge van deze twijfel hanteren veel hedendaagse adverteerders een andere adverteermethode: product placements in televisieprogramma’s. Het huidige onderzoek doet echter geen uitspraken over de werking van product placement in het algemeen, maar richt zich op de invloed van geïntegreerde placements binnen sitcoms op de aankoopintentie van kijkers. Daarnaast wordt er gekeken naar de eventuele modererende rollen die connectedness en materialisme in deze relatie spelen. Om inzicht te krijgen in deze relaties is er gebruik gemaakt van een experiment met bestaande afleveringen van de sitcom Modern Family. Het experiment betrof een online vragenlijst met twee experimentele condities en één controlegroep. De participanten zijn op toevalsbasis toegewezen aan één van de drie condities. De experimentele condities onderscheidden zich van elkaar door de mate (d.i., laag, hoog) waarin de product placements van Apple geïntegreerd zijn in de aflevering. De controle conditie bevat daarentegen geen placements van het merk Apple.

  • Connection Lost De Modern Family
    A Representação da Vida Mediada por Telas: A Cultura da Convergência Através do Episódio Connection Lost de Modern Family Ana Cecília Bisso Nunes* Resumo: Este artigo investiga a Cultura da Convergência (JENKINS, 2015) no cotidiano contemporâneo através do episódio Con- nection Lost da série Modern Family. O episódio narra um conflito familiar através da filmagem da tela de um notebook, com um personagem em um não-lugar (AUGÉ, 1999), mostran- do este ser espaço íntimo e pessoal suficiente para suportar a dinâmica familiar da narrativa. Através da análise, evidencia- se as mudanças de paradigmas cognitivos para com a informa- ção (SANTAELLA, 2004), assim como a efemeridade das redes sociais e o diálogo com a desterritorialização (LEVY, 1996) e virtualização nas dinâmicas familiares contemporâneas. Palavras-chave: Comunicação. Cultura da Convergência. Audiovisual. Múltiplas Telas. Modern Family. *Doutoranda em Comunicação Social pela Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS). Professora dos cursos de graduação de Jornalismo e Publicidade e Propaganda da Pontifícia Universidade Católica do Rio Grande do Sul (PUCRS), ministrando disciplinas relacionadas a comunicação digital, inovação e empreendedorismo. Introdução Evidencia-se na Cultura da Convergência (JENKINS, 2015) uma transfor- mação que tem origem basilar na apropriação dos dispositivos midiáticos de comunicação pelas audiências. A alteração dos rituais para com as mídias na esfera do consumo tem impacto nas dinâmicas cotidianas e relacionais da vida contemporânea, inclusive em ambientes familiares. Neste contexto, está a série norte-americana Modern Family. Inserida em uma época em que a televisão (e as mídias) se adaptam – em um processo de remediação (BOLTER e GRUSIN, 2000) – e os rituais e práticas comunicacio- nais se resinificam e se transformam, a série tem como premissa a represen- tação de três núcleos familiares que evidenciam as tensões sociais e comuni- cacionais contemporâneas através do humor.

  • Lucas Guimarães De Oliveira / USP
    A IMAGEM MULTITELAS E O CORPO/ESPAÇO/TEMPO FRAGMENTADO Lucas Guimarães de Oliveira / USP RESUMO Discute-se neste artigo a “forma multitelas” como operação poética audiovisual. Por meio da análise do filme Numéro Deux (1975), de Jean-Luc Godard, e do episódio Connection Lost (2015), do seriado americano Modern Family, estuda-se a instalação de obras audiovisuais em múltiplas telas como metodologia de operação poética que conecta imagens separadas em uma multiplicidade articulada e desterritorializante, cuja força de coesão está no desenho da composição (disposição das telas/figuras espaciais) em que o espectador é convidado a recompor a sua própria montagem segundo seu deslocamento físico e/ou repertório cognitivo. Na base teórica estão os conceitos de imagens em movimento de André Bazin e Jacques Aumont, de desterritorialização de Gilles Deleuze e Félix Guattari e de “forma multitelas” de Philippe Dubois. PALAVRAS-CHAVE Poética Audiovisual; montagem; multitelas; desterritorialização; multiplicidade. ABSTRACT It is discussed in this article the "multi-screens form" as an audiovisual poetic operation. Through the analysis of the feature Numéro Deux (1975), from Jean-Luc Godard, and of the episode Connection Lost (2015), from the american sitcom Modern Family, it is studied the installation of audiovisual works on multiple screens as a poetic operation methodology which connects separated images in an articulated and deterritorializing multiplicity. The cohesive strength from the multi-screen image is in the design of the composition (arrangement of screens / spatial figures) in which the viewer is invited to compose their own montage, according to his/her physical displacement and/or cognitive repertoire. The theoretical framework is basically formed by three concepts: moving images from André Bazin and Jacques Aumont; deterritorialization from Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, and "multi-screens" from Philippe Dubois.

Os comerciais ou propagandas que são divulgadas pelos meios digitais de comunicação, como canais de vídeos e sites também tem sido alvo de menor atenção pelo consumidor. Para driblar esse problema, as “empresas” têm utilizado diferentes ferramentas para a retomada da atenção dos consumidores. A persona e o product placement são algumas dessas ferramentas.

Henneberg: What Is Really Modern about ABC’s Modern Family Since its first airing in 2009, ABC’s domestic comedy, Modern Family, has received much praise for its formal innovations. Inspired by reality TV, the one-camera style mockumentary crosscuts between quirky portrayals of three related families, rendering its various storylines by means of jagged camera movements that capture the comic quotidian in three modern California homes. The fast-paced domestic scenes are interlaced with confessionals in which the family members, sometimes alone and sometimes partnered, step outside the action to create an intimate rapport with the audience, supplying additional jokes, plot complements, and insight into feelings and motives from their stationary position on a couch.

  • A Storytelling Machine: the Complexity and Revolution of Narrative Television
    A Storytelling Machine: The Complexity and Revolution of Narrative Television Alberto N. García After asking his students to work on The Awakening, by Kate Chopin, Creighton Bernette takes his leave with this declaration at the end of the First season of Treme (HBO, 2010-2013): I want you to take your time with it. Pay attention to the language itself. The ideas. Don’t think in terms of a beginning and an end. Because unlike some plot-driven entertainments, there is no closure in real life. Not really. («Wish Someone Would Care», 9.1) Employing an air of realism, the series created by David Simon intones a harmonious ballad about regeneration of New Orleans, adopting a slow, measured pace and a contemplative tone that allows the locales and music of the city to breathe freely. Diametrically opposed in style is Community (NBC, 2009-2015), a crazy, intertextual sitcom replete with metafictional winks. In the most famous episode of the third season, all the characters are gathered around a table for a game of Yahtzee. Before throwing the dice in order to decide which player must abandon the game, Abed Nadir warns, «Just so you know, Jeff, you are now creating six different timelines» («Remedial Chaos Theory», 4.3). In both the scene that reveals the premise of the episode «Remedial Chaos Theory»—six variations on a single story—as well as in the subtly self-referential commentary of the tragic protagonist of Between, vol.VI, n.11 (Maggio / May 2016) Alberto N. García, A Storytelling Machine: The Complexity and Revolution of Narrative Television Treme, the evolution that television narrative has undergone in the last fifteen years is condensed: sophisticated, innovative, complex, long- term and aimed at a viewer schooled in narratology.
