Group 8 :Sportmanship





This advertisement also atrract to me a lot.First, the background music is really match for the topic.And I think sportmanship is important for every sportman,so it's a good way to promote this topic by creating advertisment. Second, group 8 put a period of video in the begining,and then do some effect to make these video turn around, it's special!!

Group 12 : Animal Adoptions




Actually,the topic is familiar to our topic-pet care. They focus on animal adoptions,and I think they provide enough informations about how to avoid and solve the problem. In addition,their pictures are used in a good way. Besides, their prints are also creative.

Group 11 : Handicapped Help




I enjoy watching this advertisement!! In the video,the gorup filmed by themself,and their presentations are different from other grooups. All of group member were appear in the video,it's interesting! But they didn't put the URL on the PSA,it's really pitty.

Group 10 :Carpooling





Speaking of this advertisement,it's a fuuny one!! All pictures and prints are use cartoon characters,they are very cute and give us different vision feeling. I think they presented the topic very clearly,and the end of ad has a strongly effect ,it make me remember this advertisement deeply.

Group 9 :vandalism





In Taiwan, we can see a lot of vandalism every place,like tree, table, wall and so on.In fact,it's not suitable, so through the video, they tell us lot of drawback about vandalism, and pictures they used are very copious. I really enjoy this presentation because the ad and the introduction is detailed,too.

Group 7: animal abuse






"Stop abuse them" is the role gist they want to tell people. I see some adventages and drawbacks in the video.First, the background music is suitable ,and they put captions on the advertisement, it is good for people to understand what they said.
But the drawback is the connect of last picture between next picture is a litte delay, maybe they can pay attention next time .

Self-evaluation: pet care








yeah~finally we finished our final project:PSA. At the begining, we have no idea about how to creat an advertisement even though after we saw examples,we were thought about how to present our topic,in which way? After a long discussion,we decided to focus on dogs.

Many people saw movies about keeping pet like puppies and decided to have one, but when times pass, they just throw pets away,and in the end ,those pets have no place to live and no food to eat, mercy killing is their result.

We want to tell people souldn't throw pet away easily, we should repect life even they are just animals.When we make a decision to keep a pet,we should take care of them and regard them as our family,it's a very important term.


I want to say "thank you "for my group members,because of everyone's cooperation,we finished this challenge and got praise from Aiden!! WE REALLY DID A GREAT JOB!!


In the project,I took responsible for editing background music and storyboard.Both of them took me lots of time and really tired me,but actually,when I complete it ,I felt the sense of achivement!!

Group 6: Exercise




I think this PSA did a good job, and their backgroup music are very sepcial and shock!! but in the end of the advertisement, i don't know that it is already finish.
Through this ad, i considered that exercise is really important for us!

Group 5: childabuse




The childabuse is a serious topic nowadays,we can see this kind of news through television everyday. I think group five found a good way to express the feeling from the children who were abused,those photoes have strongly effect to show their helpness. The music they use are also attractive,and their prints are conform to the topic.

Group 3: Littering





"This is our dear home, not your trash can"
I like their slogan very much,it's creative. The topic is give animals a clean environment. From pictures, we can see that the enviroment where animals live is so dirty,so i consider that those photoes have warning effect.
To speak of prints, the slogan is not clear enough becase they use black color. But it's good that they put all informations on prints,including website and phone number.

Group 2 : Homeless





Actually, the PSA give me a feeling: this group didn't finish yet!!
why? you can see that from the storyboard, they didn't put on contents of records, they just put some pictures on storyboard.
But i don't mean that they did a bad job,i think the background music is good, and the content of discussion are plentiful.

Group 1: teenage suicide





More and more teenage suicide nowadays,group 1 provide some method to avoid it happen continuelly, in the end of PSA, they gave resolutions and i think it does work. Besides, i like pictures they used, they really warning us, and after saw this advertisement, i felt we must face the problem. on the other hand, their ad had an effect of remind!! But the drawback of this PSA is that the voice of records are so samll that i can'y hear very clearly.
