Campaign Ads for Voters

To address this year's Driving Question, "What Does it Mean to Be Informed", students spent two months researching the concepts underlying democratic government, equal and fair representation, and bias and perspective. Project groups created their own versions of campaign ads for various California propositions and presented them along with the major project milestones they achieved.

Creating The Ads

After conducting research into the issues that state propositions intend to mitigate students created several drafts of storyboards and scripts for their ads. From there each group used laptops and iPads, as well as various Google Apps, Apple's GarageBand, iPhoto, and QuickVoice to create visuals, narration, and music for their 30 second ad. These components were then all assembled in Apple's iMovie on iMacs to produce the final version of the ad.
