My group 

My group is 4 people and they are:

1. Gabriel
2. Alan
3. Victoria
4. Sam

We found 3 scary commercials,

The first was a phones 4 U advert. 
In this advert there is a woman in a car then suddenly a girl appears on her windows which looks like the grudge girl, the camera angle at this point is close up on the scary girls face. Then she has a phones 4 u in her hand.

The second was a Metz advert.

There is a creepy guy in the advert and he is the main character. He also has a weird voice. Near the end he promotes the Metz drink by making someone drink it and at this point it looks scary.


For our TV advert we are going to promote:

We are going to promote an Iphone we are having a kind of scary, freaky advert. Our slogan is "You'd kill for an iPhone". We are having an actor in a dark setting with weapon and hooded, and masked.

In yesterdays  lesson we learned about photography, we learned about taking different shots from different angles. Also, we shot it in different lights as well. Then we had to put it on the computer and edit the photo in Photoshop, to make it look brighter.

I haven chosen this image because of the freaky parts of the image: 

  • The general whole face
  • The 3 faces one in the eye, one in the other eye, one in the mouth
  • There snake like creatures coming out of his face 
The artist is called Salvador Dali, he was one of the first people to start doing surrealist paintings. 

 I haven chosen this image because of the things in the picture and the artist: 

  •  Clocks are melting, resting on bullets
  • Weird backgrounds 

In today's lesson we learned about all the different things on a camera. We had to draw a picture of the front, the back, and the top and label all the functions on the each part of the camera.

In today's lesson we learned about slogans, we had to match the company to the slogan and then think of what the slogan means. 

Also we had to create a bus top advert for a product in groups. Our product was perfume, we called our product perfumé exotiqué. The picture was of a woman with a a beach setting with a table on the side of her. it had on the table a cocktail and a bottle of the perfume. the bottle was a round object with a pink lid and the actual bottle was a transparent blue color to represent the sea. If i was too improve it, i would do it on the computer and get actual images.
