Movie Maker Advertising Project - 2009 Advertising is any paid form of non-personal promotion of ideas, goods, or services by an identified sponsor. Advertising carries a message in a set format and it allows large numbers of people to see the advertiser’s message. The main purpose of advertising is to present a message that encourages the customer to buy a product or accept an idea. Television is the ultimate advertising medium for many businesses because it can communicate a message with sound, action and color. Most commercials are approximately 30 seconds in length. Commercials pull together all the elements necessary to produce creative advertising messages. Various types of advertising techniques are used by business and vary depending on the business, product, image and/or target market. Advertising techniques are tools used to attract attention, engage minds, trigger emotions, and change the way people think. All of which, if targeted correctly, lead to sales.
