  • Could the Video Ad's Narrative Structure Engage Students in Classroom Context?
    Publication . Ferreira, Sónia; Santos, Sara; Santo, Pedro Espírito
    It is recognized that teachers have sought to innovate their methods of presenting content and, today, they have at their disposal a variety of support resources that did not have before. These potentialities have changed the way classes are taught today and the dynamics are, in most cases, different from what existed a few decades ago. Among the resources available for teaching, exhibition of videos in the classroom seems to have very relevant effects, both on students' learning and on their greater involvement in activities. However, this is not always the case and the videos presented by teachers do not have the desired effects on students. Thus, based on the assumption that greater immersion in video activates positive behaviors in classrooms, this study seeks to analyze, through a conceptual model, the antecedents of “Narrative Transportation” (immersion in video). In this sense, a video was presented to 107 students from a degree in Advertising and Public Relations, whose narrative is based on fun. After the presentation of the video, data was collected through the application of a questionnaire. Through a causal relationship model, the research work reveals that, in addition to the structure of the video narrative (Narrative Structure), the variable “Joy” (Fun) acts as one of the antecedents of “Narrative Transportation”. These results thus suggest to teachers that the presentation of videos in the classroom, with narratives that involve fun and with clear structures, has benefits in immersing students in the content and narratives presented and in the involvement in the classroom.
  • Endorser Altruism effects on Narrative Transportation in Video Ads
    Publication . Augusto, Luísa; Santos, Sara; Santo, Pedro Manuel do Espírito
    It is common for brands’ video ads to include recognisable characters from their customers. Through the notoriety of these characters’ brands stay in the minds of their customers. These characters do not always participate in the ads with the focus on monetary profit and their levels of altruism are forgotten. The impact of these characters’ altruism on the narrative transportation of marketing advertisements has been little studied. Thus, this research aimed to study the effects of endorser altruism on advertising design and narrative transportation. To this goal, it was collected data from a sample of 286 individuals through a self-administered questionnaire. Through structural equation modelling, it was demonstrated that altruism endorser has positive effects on advertising design and narrative transportation. Thus, marketing managers can obtain advantages by including characters with high altruism in their advertisements.
  • Brand Engagement and Creative Digital Advertising: A Case Study of Galo Portuguese Brand
    Publication . Santos, Sara; Santo, Pedro Espírito; Ferreira, Sónia
    Advertising has evolved over the decades. Knowing consumers are increasingly avoiding advertisements, creating campaigns that attract attention and stay in memory is essential. Advertisers’ main goal is to get closer to consumers, generating visibility, attractiveness, and engagement with the brand. Furthermore, this topic has aroused the academy's interest, and studies show the importance of advertising and its connection with brand engagement. Thus, this study (n = 244) was carried out through a research model, tested through the PLS-SEM methodology, which showed that informativeness, narrative structure and narrative transportation have effects on brand engagement and advertising stimulation play a mediating role in this relationship. Therefore, it is suggested that brands create video ads with information and relevant structures to attract consumers that consider themselves part of these ads.
