Marissa Johnson: Video Advert

In this lesson we were put into groups were that are going to be making an ad for the next three weeks. So after we got together in a triangle we all asked each other what skills we have and what objects we could bring in. Then we all look at some 30 seconds advert. The first one we watched was the old spice advert, in this advert the actor which is promoting the product is Terry Crews  - www.youtube.com/watch?v=eaOz_pFnX38.



In our Group we decided to look at the well known adverts then we each add in our own adverts we personally liked, for me it was 1st advert i have evidence i had to choose between this one or the original one. after this i choose one and we moved to the next person in our group who wanted to have an ad made by David Lynch so we looked through his collection of adverts and discussed the advert about the effects etc. After this the last person didn't have any weird looking adverts so we talked about what type of product that should have some weird adverts and then it clicked. looked at different adverts in japan, this is because of the cultural difference because in the west we are pretty serious about things while in japan they are the exact opposite because they are up for a happy and weird feeling.    





The second advert we look at was directed by David Lynch, David has mainly been know for his work for the play station 2 the 'third place' - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T4tOvkvCvwQ. The advert is weird because of the finally part of the advert were the fawn runs in front of the car then it seems he used some ideas from the Matrix movie because as soon as the car hits the fawn it crashes and the crumple zone of the car gets compressed.












The third advert was from abroad since we were suck for ideas for ads in the UK  we chose to look at some Japanese advert - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfzNEmqeIWo. This advert was weird because of the gaint dog that helps out kids with snacks.

  1. Sam, please add more detail about your groups skills and your first advert. You could also include information on shots and sounds to show what you have learned in your other sessions.
