Finally we see the employee opening a side door commenting on the gym's stretching area, however from the bright rays of light beyond the door we are fully aware that this is the fire exit to the outside. The athletic man utters his repeated dialogue "I like to lift things up..." before the door is shut behind him affectively disrupting the comical but irritating dialogue. A quick text with the title Planet Fitness and it's mission statement below "a judgement free zone" appear before the ad comes to an end. This is the perfect example of traditional storytelling except on a microscopic level. We have a protagonist (gym employee) who must overcome some obstacle, and we see the staff member choose a creative approach to solve the problem. We are given a situation based on a realistic problem, in this case a group member who clearly does not fit the mission statement, yet it is humorous because while it is realistic, it is exaggerated and features a character who does not adhere to what we perceive to be a normal human.
The commercial succeeds in proving their point while at the same time offering a bit of entertainment instead of simply projecting their product or establishment and highlighting it's benefits. This kind of advertising is very creative because the commercial speaks for itself. Because we are given a narrative based on a realistic situation and we see a problem solved we can piece together the rest. By witnessing the characters interactions we know that the gym is a place for any ordinary person not just an athlete who is obsessive, and that the staff are there to ensure that such an environment is nurtured and protected. That's in a way what story-telling is at it's most basic level, providing valuable information in an entertaining way.
