The "Persona Synthetics" advert for Humans is much different compared to others. It is and advert for a product which isn't real, however the convincing nature of it makes it much more intriguing and the hermeneutic codes within it draws the audience to find out more. It has been distributed on YouTube which means that it can access a much wider audience, as well as the fact it is much easier to share.
