Of what? Well, of boldness, of bravery, of control.

The signifier would be that image: a man fishing a shark. The signified, the idea that said man is in control of the situation and is able to take care of a shark just by himself. Together the form the sign.

The little people on the body (or island) are relaxing, it can be understood that when they smell that scent they're transported to The Bahamas because it's fresh and relaxing.

The volcano may mean that it's something that will blow up your mind, while the shark reaching the man, that this 'will caught you'.]]> 2021-03-22 15:35:34 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338575066 https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338578462 Signifier - Volcano

As it is seen with diverse things and people on it, the fact that a man is the Island itself allows the public to infer that all those think that are on him are the things gotten with the product's scent.

Also the phrase is used to give that sense of sarcasm, but at the same time it's kind of giving this rebellious side. ]]> 2021-03-22 15:36:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338581360 rveratoulum https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338581688 Signifier: The man, and the Bahamas props around him.

Also the ad plays with the fact-checking mania that is spreading over the world, where people don't differentiate between real facts, lies, and just sarcasm/mockery.]]> 2021-03-22 15:36:38 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338581956 https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338583344 Sign: Volcano
Signifier: Old Spice won’t let you down at the harshest conditions]]> 2021-03-22 15:36:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338583344 vruizgutier https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338584938 (Signified) Even when you go to the hottest places, if you use Old Spice you will feel fresh, light and cool. This could be in the literal sense of being in a desert or in a beach or also in the sense that you may be in a tense situation and by using the deodorant it will bring you peace and serenity. 
It is very ironic how the water is approaching the bench where the woman is. Therefore, it could also mean that whenever a man speaks to a woman, he will feel comfortable and daring. The deodorant will give the confidence he needs in order to confront the sand area and get out of their confort zones.]]> 2021-03-22 15:37:07 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338584938 igarcianava https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338591742 Another sign would be the text. The signifier, the actual text “Old Spice Bahamas scent comes from an anti-perspirant mine in the Bahamas. This fact has not been fact-checked”. The signified: that there’s a fact which we don’t know if it’s true. The meaning of the sign: that they don’t care wether it’s fact-checked or not. They’re cool nevertheless, and they don’t need to justify themselves before anyone.]]> 2021-03-22 15:38:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338591742 abriquetsaa https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338592043 Old Spice uses in this campaign a volcano as the signifier for their deodorant. This signifies the sweat that occurs when the deodorant is not applied. It is a signifier of disaster and chaos that can occurred with other products other than Old Spice, their competition.]]> 2021-03-22 15:38:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338592043 https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338594463 The falling boat on the image represents the fact that the product is able to create chaos. The product is not a simple deodorant, it is a deodorant that will mark you.

The ad is trying to create a subconscious link between the scent and this style of life.

The volcano and text adds exaggeration and humour to the image

The shark and the volcano give for a chaotic image but the man stays cool. The juxtaposition of the man and these elements signifies boldness and coolness in the midst of chaos, which is what Old Spice is trying to sell.]]> 2021-03-22 15:39:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338598269 xeniaaroutidou https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338602432 They setting of the island refers to the name of the specific product with Bahamas scent. The islan  is designed like that like it looks as a part of the man in the ad. Island= signifier for the man's body. Its tropical and it stands for the summery and fresh feeling that it can give you. The volcano may be a reference to the hot temperature that may arise the need for the usage of the product advertised. The element  of shark and woman can be translated as combined with the masculine identity. Shark=signifier for man's strength
Woman in the sand = eroticism ]]> 2021-03-22 15:40:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338602432 ttaillefer https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338610809  A volcano simbolizes the great power and exotic strongness of the "old spice".
Even the name "Old Spice" gives you the image of a traditional and reliable shop.
The water talks about its freshness and all the people having fun and fishing try to give it a joyfull and polifacetic use as it seems to invite you to use it for all sort of fun activities. The final message is that it is your deodorant for the summer, linking it to a desireable idea, a likeable and all year long waited moment. Making people think they can´t wait to put that deodorant on, which will mean that summer has arrived.

Signifier: Lines of text

In the end, most of the people love being at the beach, and it can represent freedom, vacation, relax. Maybe old spice could be related to that. Old Spice can be the shampoo everybody needs to use when being in holidays, after a long day at the beach.]]> 2021-03-22 15:43:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338620954 https://padlet.com/mdel4/tte4wt7chginq90g/wish/1338621474 By placing the man as a part of this made up island it could be seen as a sign that when men use Old Spice Bahamas scent they will feel like they too are in a beach surrounded by fresh breeze like the man shown in the ad.

This makes you believe that the deodorant is potent and makes you strong and invisible. Yo can do anything while wearing it.
