Advertise it! Once
you have created your product, you need to
use what you have learned and advertise
it! To do so, you need to create a logo, a
slogan and an advertisement. Make sure you
use all the propaganda techniques that are
relevant to your product.
-
- Logo: Keep in mind the information you
learned about logos in Step 1.The main
reason for having a logo is to create and
reinforce your brand identity. Use
KidPix to create a digital logo that you
will add to your PowerPoint
presentation.
-
- Slogan: Once
again, use the information you learned
about slogans in Step 1. Add a
slide in your PowerPoint presentation that
includes your slogan. If you would
like, you could record your slogan and
embed it on your slide.
-
- Magazine
Advertisement:
- Using
Appleworks 6, create a magazine
advertisement for your product. Remember
to use color, your logo, your slogan and
any other technique that will help you
sell your product. This will also be
added as a new slide in your PowerPoint
presentation.
-
- Don't
forget to work as a team and
cooperate!

| Many
problems in our society do not always
receive the attention in the media that
they really deserve. From the previous
steps, we know that most interrupted
breaks during television programming are
commercials used for selling or promoting
a product.
This
is your chance to create a public service
announcement that is informative and will
have an impact on the viewers. An
uncommercial allows you to share
information on a social problem that often
eludes the media.
Uncommercials
(30 seconds to 2 minutes) should reflect
strong background research and remember to
be creative. Careful editing of video and
still images and appropriate audio/music
or narration has a major impact on the
viewer. It is therefore important to
choose a topic in which you and your
partner are interested.
Visit
the following sites to see examples of
uncommercials:
An
Uncommercial: Teen
Drunk Driving
Adbusters: Uncommercials
WES Student uncommercial examples
Bullying , Drunk Driving 1, Drunk Driving 2, Eating Disorders 1, Eating Disorders 2, Homelessness, Smoking 1, Smoking 2 and Endangered Species.
2007 Student uncommercials: Eating Disorders 1 , Marijuana abuse, Eating Disorders 2, Bullying 1, Bullying 2, Endangered Animals 1, Endangered Animals 2, Climate Change and Smoking
Choose
among the following uncommercial topics or prpose another one.
Visit the sites to help you find the topic
of your choice. Then, read the planning
guide prior to starting your brainstorming
process. |
Now
that you have researched your topic go to
the Uncommercial
