Commercials and Advertising Track Make a Commercialyouth,
families You see hundreds of advertisements every day—now you
can make your own! As you write, edit and shoot your own
original commercial, you’ll learn how different persuasive
techniques are used in advertising. You’ll also break down how
people, products and ideas are represented, learning how to
distinguish fact from fiction in commercials. Talk back to
advertising when you remix or ‘break’ existing television
commercials with your own observations and ideas about what is
happening in the ad. You’ll learn basic video editing skills
while honing your advertising literacy skills. Once your broken
commercial is complete, it can be added to the LAMPlatoon
project, joining the grassroots education and empowerment
movement demanding responsible media messages.Watch LAMPlatoon
