I will do a performance in speech which I should advertise a product within 30 seconds. Which of my following ideas are the best?

Pls add suggestions that will help me in my performance

1.Thermos waterjug

I'm gonna act like im in a desert crawling in the sand and its like im rreally tired and thirsty. then I see a water jug and rush for the jug. Then I stand up and say "this is a life saver" then i comment on its unique design and no leak system. then say thermos waterjug- quench your thirst before you die

2.Strepsils-candy that heals sore throat

First I act like I have sore throat while I talk. Then I tell the audience to wait a sec and I drink 1 strepsil. the I advertise strepsils. "as I was saying, If you ever have sore throat, drink strepsils the first aid for sore throat.(i think this is to short. pls could anyone add more to the content?)

3.holy kettle corn-healthy popcorn

  1. OK, so this isn't an advertising class; it's speech/drama, right?

    Idea #1 - if you're crawling in the desert, you aren't going to perk up until you actually drink some water out of the thermos. Don't stand up until you've had something to drink. Then say something about how grateful you are it didn't leak; what a great design, etc. Then close with your tag line.

    However, this idea is a bit of a stretch. If he's still miles from the next water supply, that little thermos won't do him much good. But believability may not matter for your class; acting talent may be all your instructor is looking for. And it's a fun idea - you can really emote.

    Idea #2 - Much more plausible. While it may take a little longer for the product to actually work than the 30 seconds  you're allotting, it's fine. I'd suggest that, after you drink the stuff, you clear your throat a few times rather than immediately starting to talk in your normal voice. Your speaking should get better and better. If you really want to have fun, you can change your voice entirely once you're "better" - as a highbrow Englishman, for example, with an "I say!" thrown in for good measure.


  2. No. 2

    For number three you could jump out of a kettle in a white religious outfit... but that would be really cheesy
