Advertising Group Project

DIRECTIONS:
  1. Your group will create a print or video advertisement of an appropriate product or service that you choose (and that I approve).
  2. Both what your product is and what your message is should be clear to a viewer (including me).
  3. For print ads, your ad should be in color, be on paper or poster board that is larger than 8.5 x 11 inches (standard copy paper) but no larger than two feet by two feet.
  4. For video ads, your ad should be between 25 and 35 seconds long and should contain at least some graphics (and, or words) in addition to the video and audio.

    See the link below for more information and for the grading rubric.
