Advertising (Hippy advertising)

We have been learning to advertise and persuade. This is my example of what I've learnt. I'm writing as a toy advertiser trying to convince my client to advertise his toy on TV. Hope you like it please publish

Well I think your wonderful toys will sell out faster then you can say “hot potato”. I mean what kid doesn't want a walkie talkie! Now, as a serious advertiser I would put this toy on the TV. It’s a fabulous way to get your toy out there. So please sit back while I explain why.

Down sides to the internet

On the internet there are many down sides. If your customer is watching your ad on Youtube they will just think it’s just another cheap company ad, and completely ignore it. If it’s a pop up ad, people will think it’s a virus and close the ad. Where as on TV people will take your ad more seriously and won't be able to skip it.

Safe and Fair

If you want fair and safe TV is definitely the way to go. Ads on the internet are no good for people looking at them. All those pop ups and gadgets on the internet can give your customers a virus. That won't look good for your product. If you put the ad on TV it’s just a pre recorded video and can’t do any harm to the viewers or their TV’s. TV is fair because of the law forced rules. Where as internet you can bend the rules to your advantage. And we at Colour Adverts do not support cheating.

TV will go further

More people watch TV than checking ads on the internet most sites have firewalls to block ads. On the TV there's nothing to stop people from watching your ads (unless it’s a pre recorded show). The best part of TV is when Kids watch TV in the morning the adults watch it to. Same with at night time. When people are sitting at the table watching the news they will see your ad.

So that's why I think you should go with TV. I hope you see things the same way.

Poem: A Friend...

That's right! Poems are back! This poem is called A Friend... If you haven't figured out all ready.

Original by Trevor Millum:

A Friend...

A friend is someone who borrows your ball

And returns it to you later in the day;

Who will lend their newest pens - and will play

Your games. Who’ll come around to your house

  and call

For you in rain as well as when it’s fine;

Who’ll listen to your secrets, share your fears,

lend a shoulder when your eyes are full of tears

And won’t divide things into ‘yours’ and ‘mine’.

A friend will peel the plaster gently off your cut

And a friend won’t say ‘Yuk!’. A friend laughs at your jokes

When others just go ‘Eh?’; who likes you but

Will tell you when you’re wrong; who strokes

Your favourite pet in spite of all the fleas -

Who knows your family but, when invited, says

  ‘Yes, please!’

Trevor Millum

New and improved version by Me!:

A Friend...

...is someone who hangs out with you all day

even when theres nothing to do.

A friend is someone who comes to your house

and always asks before using your stuff.

A person who’ll will do all your dares

even if they really don’t want to.

Someone that doesn’t make fun of you.

A friend is someone who will help you when you're hurt

even if it’s not that bad.

Someone who shares with you, stands by you and sits next to you. A person who likes the same sort of things as you.

A friend is someone you will know for the rest of your life

Rock climbing reflection

· Something I was pleased with was… How well I was able to climb the wall.

                            

…because I’m better than I was last time I tried.

· I really enjoyed learning… how to put on my safety belt and harness.

…because… I’ve never done it by myself before.

· Something I found hard was… my footing.

· Something that made me think was… how was I going to get to the top without letting go of the wall.

…because It was really hard to find the right place to grab.

·Something I want to get better at is… The Footing.

This is the video I made to go with it.                                                                 This is a photo of me

· I really enjoyed learning… what to do when you're connected to the person on the wall.

                  

…because… It is really important to Know what to do if someone slips.

· Something I found hard was… reaching out to the rocks on the wall.

· Something that made me think was… where I was going.

…because I couldn't see where the rocks were.

· Something I want to get better at is… still footing.
