 Research: Commercial Conventions and Codes For my commercial, I decided to advertise paddleboards. In these commercials, the audience usually sees groups of people using the paddleboard and having a good time.  - They usually wear bathing suits and shorts or wetsuits as costumes. In some shots, there are multiple people wearing a simple shirt with shorts and a fanny pack.  - The props include the paddle board and the paddle.  - The actors in the ads appear fit and active. They look wet because of the water and like they're having fun.  - The scenes are mostly birds-eye view shots from above to show the actors paddling in the water and the scenery.

Since debate takes up so much of my time, I would reserve days for me to do the project so I would have enough time to get it done. The other reason I chose to do it alone is that I am joini

 Hi, my name is Lauren Reitman. My favorite thing in school is debate. I love the performing aspect of debate where you can compete with random people to earn a medal. In my opinion, everyone should be in debate to experience how fun it actually can be when you find the right topic. I'm a sophomore and I spend most of my time with friends doing fun things outside of school. My life is mostly based on school and debate. School takes up most of my time since I'm in high school. But besides school, I spend my time playing video games and listening to music. My life is a little bit chaotic. There's never a time in my life when things are stable. I am always running around or doing something. But when I finally settle down something new pops up. Most of it is good though. Soon I'm going to join volleyball so that will take up a lot of my time as well. I'm hoping I can get good at volleyball and be able to win many games. Volleyball is one of my favorite hobbies besides v
