This short article will give an insight into the visual examples of subliminal messages as used in political speeches, cartoons, movies, song, and of course the media and advertising industry – especially the advertising industry!

Subliminal messages in every corner of the advertising industry, across all types of brands, corporations, and products, - it doesn't matter on the industry - even the most subtle subliminal suggestion can have a huge effect on brand recognition and on sales.

However, subliminal messaging has actually been banned from use in TV adverts – advertising agencies are not allowed to use a flashed visual message within a commecial which is shorter than 0.5 of one second.e. much faster than our eyes are capable of seeing. Also the use of subliminal sounds isn't allowed either – it is too manipulative to advertise to someone without their knowledge.

However there are still a LOT of subliminal messages in advertising posters. These vary from hidden text (commonly the word Sex), or suggestions (again usually suggesting Sex).

As mentioned virtually all sectors of industry have used subliminal messages, from local bars and cafes, to multinational food and drinks suppliers such as coca cola, McDonalds, and KFC. Coca cola is famous for usingimages of naked women hidden cleverly on their bottles - they will do anything to anything to link coca cola and sex in your mind.

George Bush has also heavily used subliminal suggestions throughout his election campaigns, and even Disney are frequent users of subliminals – even in a kids cartoon they include subliminal messages for the same reasons as coca cola do – to add another element to their movies, and give a wider appeal and make their movies more memorable.

There are countless more visual examples of subliminal messages so follow the link to see some more.
