My Advertisement

Persuasion and Advertisement learning reflection

Which advertising technique did you choose and how did you use that technique to create your poster?

I used the power of Special offers for this poster because headphones are usually expensive or they’re cheap but don’t work good, anyways, I used the special offer technique to catch people interests and make them go like “hmm, 50% on headphones? Wow”

b. Explain how and why you chose the colours, words, background, etc. that you used to make your advertisement. 

so, I was kind of thinking about the colours and how they don’t need to pop out, because I didn’t want people to think like “Oh, they really want me to buy their stuff” making things pop is good, but not always. So, I went for the more casual and neat colour. I added how the headphones would be good for bus rides and I mean it! I went on a bus once and there were so many middle schoolers that I wished I had headphones with me. I called them black panther headphones because #1: I didn’t know what to call them and #2: black panthers are quiet and the headphones make it that things around you get more quiet. I used Ai to make the girls on the bottom looking out the window while wearing black headphones. Of course, you can get them all in different colours but I think it makes sense since it’s black panther headphones lol.

c. What do you think others who aren’t in your class should know about advertising?

If I should say something about advertisement, it would be to watch out. You never know which advertisement is a scam or if it’s real. Sure, advertisement you find outside is usually real from company’s and stuff. But, Advertisement online can be sometimes a scam. They can be harmless or actual harm can be done.

Core Competency

 One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was when I used the ai. I was thinking of what type of product my generation uses. Headphones came to my mind because I see everyone with either headphones or earbuds. I made Ai make the photos of the girls like how I mentioned above.

I used to think how the different ways people make things about advertisement and now I know the different ways because ADL showed me all the different ways and what they do. Like, I always used to wonder how did they get this idea or how did they ever make this? That’s what I thought at least.
