Abstract

The relevance of the research topic is due to the need to increase the evidence-based studies on enhancing the development effectiveness of audiovisual advertising message, which creates an urgent demand for further scholarly elaboration of such a complex phenomenon as psychosemantic analysis of video advertising. The purpose of the study is to identify opportunities to increase efficiency of audiovisual communication by conducting the psychosemantic study of the perception of video advertising of brands. The methodological basis of the study is a set of marketing, sociological and psychological methods. In particular, the focus group, survey, semantic differential and George Kelly's repertory grid methods were chosen to study the psychosemantic space of the target audience. Correspondingly, the qualitative results of psychosemantic influence of video advertising on consumer consciousness were achieved through mathematical calculations and graphic illustrations. The study presents the results of psychosemantic research of video commercials, which highlight the features of their psychosemantic perception by the consumer. The emphasis is placed on the fact that the previous experience, knowledge and personal values of target audience representatives have an impact on their perception of different types of video advertising of the brand within one advertising campaign. The recommendations for improving the efficiency of audiovisual communication have been developed.
