Public Service Announcement

For this project, you will work with a partner to create two advertisements (one per partner) and series of photographs with a consistent theme (3 each person- six total) to promote awareness of an issue for teenagers.  Your team will be presenting it to the class.  

You may choose among the following topics, or one of your choice (has to be approved)- each group will have a unique project:

Domestic violence                                        Driving While Texting        Depression
Body Image/Eating Disorders                       Gang violence                   Gambling                          Environmental Issues                                   Gun Control                       Obesity                        
Bullying                                                         Suicide                              Anti-Smoking             
Anti-Drug                                                      Homelessness                   Drunk Driving

Your ads must have a headline, tagline, copy and illustration and it all must be original and contain factual information.  It must give information on where to go for help or to get more information.

The print advertisements have to be done in Photoshop using type tool and layers.  The ads must be 8-1/2” x 11” tall with a resolution of 300 pixels/inch.

You are to use your unique photograph as an illustration for the advertisements.

Your marketing campaign must speak directly to a teen audience.  Go for the gut- think of something that would make an impact!

Please note the following:

1.     You are to do research first on the subject, using websites- (sometimes there are ones on the topic, such as www.depressionhurts.com, www.familyfirstaid.org, www.at-risk.org...), as well as personal research done among peers. 

2.     With the research, find out what ads have been done before, what logos have been used, what headlines have been used, etc.  Use this as your springboard for your new ad.

3.     Your presentation will discuss the issue, show what has been done previously for awareness, and explain what you two are doing differently to raise awareness.  It will be set up through Powerpoint as follows:
        Slide 1: Title Page
        Slide 2: Present the problem- statistics etc (can be more then one slide if needed- include the source)
        Slide 3: What ads were done before (can be more then one slide if needed/ ads that were published)
        Slides 4- 9: Your photo series of six photographs (each photograph on their own unique slide)
        Slide 10: First 8-1/2" x 11" ad that is done in Photoshop (with your headline, image, copy, information)
        Slide 11: Second 8-1/2" x 11" ad done in Photoshop (created by the second partner)


You will be graded on the following:
Presentation: presentation of new materials versus old, well spoken Print ads & Photo Series
