Character+Assassination

In the last assignment, your task was to build up your project. In this assignment, you need to attack your opposition. Throughout history, propaganda has been used to create a negative emotional feeling towards someone/something. In the next two days, you will construct a campaign that will attempt to cripple your opponent's chances. The campaign will have two parts.

In the first part, you will create a 30-60 second negative (radio or TV) ad that attacks your opponent. Anything is fair game, but it makes more sense if you address actual flaws of the project (e.g. Garfield = lazy glutton).

In the second part, you will construct on computer or poster board a static campaign "poster" that focuses on your opponent. Demonizing your opponent's project is always useful.

What are the defeated projects ("Don't Shoot", Steamboat, et al) doing? Similar to modern-day SuperPACS (Political Action Committees), the eliminated candidates are free to attack __any__ of the remaining projects.

This assignment is worth one hundred points. Part of your grade in this assignment is how well you persuade your fellow classmates. Your work will be graded on a 1-10 scale for effectiveness. The ratings will be averaged, and be part of your final score. Just like in the real world, the product needs to convince the audience.

The projects will be presented starting at 1:45 p.m 1/27/2014. Overall, this class has done outstanding work. Keep it going!
