THE REVIEW
I love this advert; it is very interesting to watch. The food experts where very lively in their roles and their dialogue wasn’t just conversational but well selected before putting the words into use. Also, the countenance of the contestants was also enjoyable to watch.
Moving on, I am wondering if they were trying to showcase the major tribes in Nigeria- Igbo, Yoruba, Hausa? If that was the case, well it wasn’t quite obvious safe for the woman that was on hijab. Even at that, you may wear hijab and not necessarily be an hausa. It is basically worn by muslims.
I must commend the food experts; they made the video lively.
This is an advert different from the norm. Usually, seasoning cubes advert is done in a way that out of all the contestants, only one is using that seasoning cube and the person is picked winner while the others who did not use the seasoning cube miss out in the competition. But this case is different; they were all announced winners as they were all familiar with Onga. Nice one there!
So to the major deal; does this advert have the propelling force that will make a customer hunger for Onga? Yes I must say. It can push one to buy Onga seasoning cubes.
JUST WONDERING
- The presenter introduced other people as in the food experts, regional chefs but didn’t introduce himself; smh
- Why did that woman put her hand in the mouth to shoosh everyone; it didn’t really make sense. Because it is a live competition and all the contestants were being watched. So, even if she had secretly used the seasoning cube, the way she put her finger to the mouth doesn’t make it secretive anymore…
- Just wondering if there is a spelling for that “Yele-ii” sound made at the end of every Onga seasoning cube’s advert.
SOUND: No music except instrumental and it was really interesting to the ears.
LOCATION: The advert was shot in Nigeria. All the scenes were shot indoor.
