PSA's

A PSA is a type of advertisement mostly shown in TV, Radio, or other media. They are similar to commercials because both are short, but they differ in many other ways. Commercials anounce a product in a funny, serious way; they leave you ceratin message so you would buy that product, and sometimes they are educative. Meanwhile the PSA's are more funny and weird (violent, gross, inapropiated). They are mostly for entertainment and at the end they give you a message like "don't play with the moon", they are talking about something unreal.
I would like to work with Xime or Debo because they have lots of imagination and creativity. Fer C. because she is very intelligent, and I know she will come up with something good. Paola or Priscila because they are crazy and very funny.
Use something of our interest like:
1. Technology
2. For girls, love.
3. For boys, sports or cars.
4. Parties
5. Music
I would make a PSA about a guy watching sports instead of being with his girlfriend or ginorng her or I don't really know. I have no ideas right now.
Maybe for technology it could be a commercial of how many silly things we do without noticing them because we are stick to our cell-phones all day.
I don't have good ideas right now, so I don't know how i could approach them if I were assigned that as an PSA.

Commercials

The three commercials I liked the most were Doritos-2011-House Sitting, Volkswager-2011-Darth Vader, and Coca Cola -2011-siege. It would be really funny to bring back to life everything we once loved just by spreading Doritos in them. In the second commercial, the boy is really cute trying to make everything work with his hands, just like the real Darth Vader. The commercial of Coca-Cola is really positive. I really like those commercials because they are very humorous and that way people can remember the product they are publishing.

I would improve All the videos by putting something that relates to the S.B. Non of the comercials have something to do with it. I would have included a coreback or a runner or a liner, or even the coach! Someone related to the teams or players. If the videos are called "S.B. comercials", well, they should make that statement true. Though, a video I thought was inapropiate was Pepsi Max- First Date. This video is not something a young kid can see because it talks about sex in not a good way. This commercials are the ones that doesn't inspire you to buy the product published.

The video I liked the most from my classmates was Jorge's. His video is very original and goes straight to the main point. The way he filmed the video was really good, the music fits perfectly, and it is really funny. Even though he was serious during the video, at the end he says something that really caught my attention and in certain way it really made me want to buy a coca-cola :) I think he really deserves a 10! He did an excellent job with the video. :)
