Advertising Video

Today we looked at some advertising T.V videos in class. We picked our favorite video and we rotated to look at others favorites too. So my homework is to choose one of my classmate's favorite videos and to write about it.
This is going to be about Maya's favorite ad. The purpose of this ad is to stop people from smoking and what happens to you. The target audience for this ad is for smokers who are mostly young adults and also adults. It's effective because the video teaches people how smoking is really bad for you and your health and it can even kill you. And the video is very funny and the song is very catchy too.

Any questions VS. You can lie


If someone asked me to choose if I could lie or ask any questions, I would DEFENATELY say ask questions. My choice is to ask questions because it helps me better doing correct things. If I lie it sometimes makes EVERYTHING WORST!

This type of clothing is very popular these days. Girls this year wear skirts jeans and leggings because they think it's cool. And I also think it's nice and it's never boring to see girls wearing these types of clothes. So go out there and wear or buy jeans or skirts or leggings in the mall!
