2. What is branding?
 A brand is a type of text, with their meaning being
culturally- specific, fluid and open to interpretation (Week
7 lecture).
 As was discussed in the Week 7 lecture with Dr Andrew
King, branding is concerned with attaching the ‘best’ or
‘intended’ connotative meanings to a product.

3. Our Advertisement
 We created an advertisement promoting a Women’s
perfume.
 The brand name of our perfume is ‘Magnifique’, with the
accompanying slogan being ‘let luxury lead you.’
 Both the brand name and slogan of our advertisement
conjure up images of Paris, fashion, style and
luxury, which will definitely appeal to women within our
