The project’s objective is to help students apply what has been taught in the entire course on real life example so they learn what it’s like to do an advertising campaign which is the whole point of the course. The project outline is broken to 4 phases and students are given feedback each time they turn in one of the four and resubmit after correction.
They are also required to make an actual ad “like a visual aid to illustrate their idea” such as a billboard, a video, a flyer or a brochure.
