Taught in French, this course explores the inner workings of the advertising industry in France, from the competition for company clients and initial briefing, to market research, copy design, testing, and media planning. Course participants engage in the various interactions one might encounter in this environment and design as part of a `creative team? an advertising campaign for a particular product. Other topics explored include humor and word play in French advertising, strategies used for targeting different age groups, regulation of the industry, and the latest trends in advertising. To draw cross-cultural comparisons, we will also examine adaptations of international advertising (such as global campaigns for IBM, McDonald?s, Toyota, and so on) for French audiences and explore documentaries on advertising from around the world (e.g., Culture Pub) along with testimonials from those working on international accounts for the top ad agencies in Paris.
