I did not blog Wednesday and Thursday.


Sorry, I had activities after school.

Friday, we are filming quick ads for soap.  I am introducing them to the idea of Artificial Means of Persuasion.  I gave them two choices of soap to sell.  How do you sell soap that is nothing special?  You run out of logical reasons to offer people to choose your soap over another.  That's where the ad techniques come in.  Try using a testimonial or deny that your product does something.  Why not make your ad funny so people remember it?  I had them start to look at the techniques found on pages 4 and 5 of the packet.
