Abstract: This work analyzes the soundtrack as a fundamental element in audiovisual advertising pieces, with theoretical input from advertising, audiovisual, cinema and radio authors. The soundtrack is often interpreted by the public as only the musical part of a product, disregarding any other types of noise, sound effects and silence. Every soundtrack is strategically designed to obtain a final result. In view of this, an analysis was carried out based on the three rhythmic roles proposed by Marcel Martin, from the commercial The Force, by the automobile company Volkswagen, broadcast in the final of the Super Bowl event, in 2011. The advertising piece appropriates the character Darth Vader from the saga Star Wars to illustrate the piece and along with that, the song The Imperial March, which is the theme song of the renowned character, including some sound elements in the construction of the piece. This explains how the soundtrack goes far beyond a simple musical background and has a great influence on the construction of the meaning of the campaign.
