5. Advertisements

Your hometask is going to be to create an ad (commercial) about a product - it can be anything but try to find some peculiar/unique object to advertise. A broom or sleeping pills, perhaps. 

The following steps should be applied 

1) Create a slongan/tagline that is catchy and humorous. 

2) Highlight the benefits/advantages of the product 

3) Create/find compelling visuals 

4) Create a logo (optional) 

5) Add soundtrack if it is a video. 

In order to create your masterpiece you can use online tools we've worked with, like animoto, goanimate, glogster, or you can create in with pixlr

Oh, you may also want to make it in the form of a demotivator or an e-card.

Good Luck!
