Television commercials are generally produced in two different styles:
in argumentative manner, and in narrative style. In argumentative style
various attributes of the product are shown in a logical manner; whilst
narrative style is more towards storytelling and product is presented as a
part of the story. Generally around the globe, and particularly in Pakistan
argumentative style has always been in fashion. Particularly in the earlier
years advertisements are considered to be a logical way to present the key
characteristics of a product to its consumers. Mostly, this straight forward
approach is because advertising is still at its infancy in Pakistan; however,
in the last five years, a shift from the argumentative to narrative can be
observed. This research paper reviews the some of the television
advertisements, andexamines these to study the shift in the trends of
advertisements.
