Create+the+Commercial!

For this assignment you will create a commercial for a product of your choosing. The product may be an actual product in the real world or may be some type of fictional product that you and your partner dream up. Use some of the special effects and camera/editing tips to display the features of your product. For example, if your product is, “Ultimate X-Ray Vision Goggles,” you might choose to use the X-Ray effect in iMovie. Or, if your product is the “Anti-Classroom Boredom Teleporter,” then you should use the software to make it look like the person can quickly disappear. The product idea for your commercial should be appropriate and should have some type of positive benefit to consumers. You should also create and include in your commercial some type of catchy line that goes along with the product that you are selling. Before you begin your storyboard for this project your idea needs to be approved by Mr. Montagne. Here are some real world examples:
