    Dear Mai!
    you have done your homework well
    However i have some comments
    - firstly, i thinks context is unknown, because context is not setting
    - Secondly, i do not agree wit you in product attribute and customer benefit
    I think product attribute is good taste
    and customer benefit is enjoyment of goog taste,
    - Finally, execution styles also have image, colour and fantacy

  2. Hi Mai! Here are my comments for you after I read all the items in your entry 2:
    - Item 1: This advertisement is so eye-catching. I like it very much. However, from my perspective, the medium should be printed advertising and the objective is affective. Besides, you should consider again about the personal values that are: health and interest because I can’t know them by seeing this poster.
    - Item 2: I think the objective of this advertisement is affective and the generally selling proposition is “A car to make your own”. You can see it in the advertisement.
    - Item 3: In my opinion, the medium of this advertisement is printed advertising. Besides, I don’t think the execution style here is humorous. Can you explain your choice?
    In general, you did a good job! Hope my comments will be useful for you. Keep practicing!

  3. Dear Mai,after reading through all your entry, i have some comments for you.
    About the first one, i think it's such a great advertisement. However, there is one thing in your framework that i need you to make sure. It's about personal values, can you ensure that Pepsi is healthy while as you know, it has lots of gas?
    Item 2 and item 3 are good. They are all interesting and affective.
    Hope those comments will be useful for you!
    Thanks for reading!

  4. Hi Mai,
    After seeing your entry, I can easily find that you are a humorous person, and I'd love them as well. Now is some ideas i got when reading your framework and our friends discussion.
    First, I'll talk about item 1. I agree with Ms.Thuy about definition of the context here.I think I can help you with the context. It was around 2002. You can find more information when folling this link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pepsi_Twist
    Besides, I find that the Product attribute is fresh because the way it exposed the ice cold drink makes it appeal refreshing to viewers.
    In addition, I'm totally in lines with Yen.
    Overall, your entry is rather eye-catching to my perspective. However, if you descride them more detailed, your hard work will be better.
    Thanks for reading my comments! I hope it help.
    Best,
    Nguyen Thi Nguyet
