The Assignment
You and a partner will select a brand, item, company, or service and compose a
Jingle to advertise your product! The product can be part of an existing brand, or it
can be something brand new that you and your partner create (i.e. the Nike Free
Runs, or something you dream up, like a Jetpack or a self-driving motorcycle,
etc.). You’ll be asked to create a radio jingle that is at least 16 bars long, that is
meant to advertise your selected product to listeners. The requirements for the
jingle itself are below:
Step 3) Brainstorm
Work with your partner and come up with some ideas of how you want your jingle to sound –
will it be fast, or slow? Loud, soft, or both? What instrument would you like to play the
accompaniment? Base your decisions on what you think a successful jingle sounds like.
