Formal Enrichment in Heinz USA Commercial Advertising Design
Abstract
This study explores the role of formal enrichment in commercial advertising, emphasizing the use of diverse design elements and vocabulary to create high-quality advertisements that resonate with community memory and local values. The research aims to establish theoretical foundations for formal enrichment in advertising, addressing the gap in understanding how formal relationships in design enhance cognitive awareness and audience interaction. Using an analytical approach, the study examines Heinz Group's ketchup advertisements from 2022, selected for their diverse topics and impact on deliberative aspects. Findings indicate that successful advertisements effectively connect with the social fabric by employing flexible and clear design elements that adapt over time. Formal enrichment, through the strategic use of expressive elements and realistic color significance, enhances the clarity, persuasiveness, and overall appeal of advertisements, thereby increasing their marketing effectiveness. This research provides valuable insights for designers on employing formal enrichment to improve advertising performance and audience engagement.
