Activity 3
How do we make a digital ad?
What do we need to think about?
• Our target audience
• The format, or type, of digital advert
• Images – what our advert looks like
• Slogan – phrase to remind us of the product
• Copy – words to give us information
Example - T-Mobile’s digital ads
Young people
Life’s for Sharing
What formats and
images did T-Mobile
choose to use? Why?
Who might want to buy milk?
Why would they be interested in the product?
Target Audience – an example
• You might be asked to sell milk to people
aged 50 or over.
• How will you persuade this man to buy milk?
• Think about your target audience.
– What does he buy?
• He might buy insurance online.
• You might place your advert on an
insurance website.
Think about the format (type of ad)
• Should I make an advergame or a banner
ad?
• He might not play many computer games?
• A banner ad could catch his eye with
interesting animation!
Banner ad for a website
Think about images
• What images might appeal to him?
• He probably does not need to feed a baby.
• He might like milk delivered to his door?
• The breakfast might remind him how he uses milk?
• Perhaps he would like the bold images?
• Perhaps the blue and orange work well together?
Think about the words
We need:
• a slogan – that appeals to our target audience
• copy – to give more important information
The slogan:
• Which slogan would he like most?
• Brilliant Bones? or Stay Slim with Semi-Skimmed?
He probably wants to stay healthy and strong.
Strong bones are important so let’s use: Brilliant bones.
What copy should we include?
• Perhaps the advert should inform him about the
health benefits of milk?
– Calcium is important for developing teeth. Or
– Stay active for longer. Calcium can keep your
bones strong?
These sentences give useful information and will help
explain the slogan. Let’s choose:
Stay active for longer.
Calcium can keep your bones strong.
Let’s put it all together!
• TARGET AUDIENCE
• FORMAT
Banner ad
• IMAGES
• SLOGAN
Brilliant Bones!
• COPY
Stay active for longer. Calcium can keep your
bones strong.
The advert might look like this:
BRILLIANT BONES!
Stay active for longer. Calcium
can keep your bones strong.
DRINK MILK FOR BRILLIANT BONES!
Now it’s your group’s turn:
• You will be given a target audience & format
• You must decide:
- the slogan, the images and the copy.
• Remember to think about:
-
what your target audience would like
why might they buy milk?
what will the ad look like?
will you use music?
how will your ad work on the website? Can you click on it?
• At the end of the session you will present your ideas
to the rest of the class.
