Slogans & Jingles

What is the main goal of a slogan?

Just do it

Maybe she's born with it. Maybe it's...

Taste the rainbow

Steeds verrassend, altijd voordelig

Heerlijk Helder ....

Leuker kunnen we het niet maken, wel makkelijker.

Have it your way.

Because you're worth it...

What is the difference between a slogan and a jingle?

Your turn!

• Create a jingle and slogan for your radio advertisment.
• Make it short, catchy and easy to remember!
• For creating a jingle; use household stuff/musical instruments/everything you can find! Think creative!

Plot of the commercial	Plot has a distinct beginning - middle - end	Plot has a recognizable beginning - middle - end	Plot does not present a clear beginning - middle - end	Plot has little to no evidence of intentional structure

Character/voice	Each person speaking has a distinct way of using their voice suiting their character. They speak clearly all of the time.
