Flowers for Algernon TV Ad
Group Project (due next week)
·
Maximum 4 people in a group
·
All members must appear in the
performance of the ad
·
The ad must be at least 1
minute long
·
You must create and turn
in a storyboard
·
Fellow members will score you on your participation
Remember, the process is successful; however, like any
surgery, there are risks!
Your ad must address those concerns
the audience will have.
Also, there will be no making fun of
people with a mental disability.
Yes, someone can be simple, but the product
can also be sold to smart people as well.

Examples of support
We see Charlie getting smarter in
the scene at the factory when everyone signs the petition. This proves that people don’t want him to get
smart.
Charlie does not want to be
smart. We know this because he says to
Miss Kinnian, “Miss Kinnian, I do not want to be smart.” (Notice the punctuation of the direct quote.)
