Commercial Mania!

Right this way! Come one, Come all....

Cheesy I know....for the past two weeks our sixth graders have been developing their own products and working on how to sell them. This whole thing started with our studies of emotional appeal. We have been studying how commercials use different types of emotional appeal (better of well being, better self-image, etc...) to sell their products.

Each group of students completed a radio advertisement (recorded by Vocaroo) and recorded a TV commercial. Each group of students were asked to consider each of the following areas when creating these commercials.
Creativity
Originality
Know your audience
Types of appeal
Product design

Over the next two days I will post these advertisements and allow my readers to vote on which radio and TV commercial are their favorites. Enjoy!
