It is important to decide, during early planning stages, what the job positions for the ad will be (art directors, copywriters, video technicians, etc.), and who will fulfill each one.

Advertising has been defined by different experts. Some of the quoted definition are : American marketing association has defined advertising as "any paid form of non personal presentation and promotion of ideas, goods or services by an identified sponsor.

Types
The six types of TV commercials are Slice, Talking Person, Demo, Visual, Graphic Collage, and Combination. The Slice, or "Slice of Life", is a dramatization (story). To make an effective Slice, create a situation where the product plays a key role. Make it simple and interesting. A Talking Person presents a spokesman for the brand (e.g. Jack-in-the-Box's Jack, or Wendy's Dave Thomas). A testimonial commercial is a type of Talking Person. A Demo is a presentation of the product's usage. Typical Demo types are:

Side-by-Side: The product is pitted against its competition (or imaginary competition, such as "Brand X").

Before and After: Demonstration of the problem and solution. Product Performance: An exhibition of the product's strengths. In-Use and New-Use: In-Use shows the product being used. New-Use shows a new use for an old product. Torture Test: An (often humorous) demonstration of the product's durability.

A torture test is an "extreme" demonstration of a product performance, not durability. The Visual primarily uses imagery to sell the product. Graphic Collage is a postmodern style often used in music videos. It appropriates audio and video, and may employ supers (super-imposition). A Combination uses two or more of these types together.

Planning
Planning steps: Start at the end. Decide what the ad's final impact will be. Plan visuals. Plan movement. The beginning provides context. Common mistakes encountered here are overwriting, audience confusion, and irrelevancy. The middle connects the target to the brand. Here is where the support is given. This part requires extreme clarity. The end presents the ad's punch line, or final thought. A logo or other brand identification is typically displayed here. Make pre-production notes. Things to include are

Location (Where will the footage be shot?) Talent (Who will be acting? Providing music?) Special effects (if any) Props (if any) Bids & budgeting (How will we pay for this?) Scheduling

Profiling consumers: Know your audience. Be careful not to offend them! You're not just selling a product, you're selling an image. Extreme close-ups of the product are used to create a sense of intimacy. A similar problem, the "Rubber Pencil", comes about when impossible proportions or angles create problems with the ad during production. It is important to resolve all these issues during the planning stages.

Production
Make a "shot list." Make sure that only one person talks to the director, to avoid confusion.

Post-Production
Audio post-production involves "direct voice" (synchronized to video) or "voice tracks" (such as announcers), as well as music and sound effects. Video post-production includes usage of animation and addition of stock footage. Prescoring is preparing audio before video, and post-scoring is preparing audio after video. Direct Response Television (DRTV) often takes the form of infomercials.

Here, the advertisers use flashy and attractive ads to make customers take a look on the products and purchase for trials. Continuity: this objective is concerned about keeping the existing customers to stick on to the product. The advertisers here generally keep on bringing something new in the product and the advertisement so that the existing customers keep buying their products. Brand switch: this objective is basically for those companies who want to attract the customers of the competitors. Here, the advertisers try to convince the customers to switch from the existing brand they are using to their product. Switching back: this objective is for the companies who want their previous customers back, who have switched to their competitors. The advertisers use different ways to attract the customers back like discount sale, new advertise, some reworking done on packaging, etc.
