Advertiser |
|
| Often when we think of Christmas we think of presents, food and holidays. We can forget the true meaning of Christmas. | |
| With someone else design an advertising campaign that reminds people about the true meaning of Christmas. | |
| Your campaign may include: a radio jingle, a TV commericial, a newspaper advertisement, badges and bumper stickers, posters ... | |
| Remember that your campaign needs to persuade people to think about the real meaning of Christmas rather than getting caught up in the commercial hype. | |
| Work out a way to evaluate how effective your campaign has been. Were you successful? | |
