Persuasion and Advertising Learning Reflection

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

The advertising technique I chose was the plain folk and special offer technique. I demonstrated the plain folk technique with a child holding my 3d printer product, this makes other children want to by my product. My special offer was 70% off this week only, this will make people want to by my product before it is to late.

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

I made my special offer sign red and the background black because the red would stand out under the picture. I wrote clearance sale because that would make sure people know that I dont have many 3d printers left. For my background it was plain black so that the important parts would stand out like the picture.

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

There are different types of advertising, like video content, or interactive ads, if you were to make a video add, you should always make sure to speak loud and clear, stay on the important topic, and stay ethical.

Core Competency Reflection

Examples of where I communicated clearly and purposefully on this project can be seen in the picture of the child holding the toy, this ensures that kids are going to be interested my product, I communicated clearly when i put down the clearance sale.

One strategy or activity that stimulated my imagination on this project was my own 3d printer, I thought this would be a good idea because lots of people like 3d printers and toys.

Some skills I have developed to make my creative activities better are staying on task, researching ideas, and asking for help.
