The environment needs a PR (Public Relations) agent! For Earth Day, we're going to make ads for environmentally friendly products. First, we need to learn about advertising. Day 1: Exploring AdsFirst, we're going to explore advertising strategies at this site from PBS.org
Day 2: Plan Your AdWork with a partner to decide what product you will advertise. Your product should be something to help the environment! It can be real or made up, but it shouldn't be magic. You also should decide what kind of ad you will do: - Celebrity Endorsement: when a famous person talks about how they use your product and love it so everyone should buy it!
- Bandwagon: It's really popular, so you should buy it!
- Facts and Statistics: when an ad uses numbers to impress how good something is
- Patriotic: when an ad shows that buying a product is the American thing to do.
- Happy: when an ad shows that the people who use a product are super happy!
- Before and After: when an ad shows the results of using a product
- Emotional: an ad that appeals to your needs or fears, like:
- Need for something new
- need to stand out
- need to be cool
- fear of getting old
- fear of accidents
