Hey guys, I've gotten a new assignment.

I'm supposed to shoot a commercial photo. The only aspects are that it follows the AIDA-model (attention, interest, desire and action).

I'n scandinavia we have something called "snus"



http://gfx.dagbladet.no/dinside/2003/12/17/snus.jpg

I think it's somewhat tasty, but It's really gross and gives you a bad breath, not to mention yellow and unhealthy teeth.

I am going to make an "attitude campaign", which will consist of a guy with friggin awesome teeth to the left, a pretty girl looking really intense at this guy, then a guy who is using snus on the right.
He will have alot of snus over his teeth, and will be looking downright dreadful. I will try different variations, but the basic alignment is that he wants her, but can't have her because she wants the guy with the fancy teeth smile.gif

A: Dreadful-looking snus
I: You get somewhat interested in the whole "story" behind the picture. The threesome-drama.
D: You really want to get those nice teeth : )
A: Hopefully you stop using snus!

Here is a scetch (I know it's awesome. My drawing skills are killer:



note: the guy using snus is going to look at the girl, with sorrow in his eyes cry3.gif

Now to you Photography section:

Do you have any advice of something that can be done different? Maybe some instruments to get the AIDA-model shine through more excessive?

Let me know smile.gif

Well its way more healthier than that stuff, tobacco or alcohol, even report from WHO says that, still its illegal because of some idiot politics from 50's america..

I wonder why it's illegal. Since it's just tobacco.

Its not illegal to use it, but its illegal to sell it. Enyways its way more harmfull than tobacco, thats why its illegal to sell it, but since its made from tobacco they cant ban of using it.

Hmm, never heard anything about it being more dangerous than tobacco. Since it doesn't harm your lungs, it cant give you cancer, heart attacks, liver damage.. etc..
Never been any record of snus killing anyone.

It can actually give cancer easier than tobacco, not on lungs, but in your mouth, iv heard about meny cases where they need to remove whole jaw because of cancer or some nasty infections from snus. I remember when i was about 13 years old and i knew one guy who could put 2 colt lighters(i bet you got those in swe allso) under his lip next to nose because snus had carved holes in there(the hole went really close to his eye), and the guy wasnt even big.. Allso heard about cases where snuss had carved its way so deep that you can put stuff from your mouth under your eye lid.

Its just dangerous in bit different ways than tobacco, but definetly not healtier.

Hm, I guess you're talking about chewing tobacco, which is a very different "drug". It's never been proved that snus is the reason of any cancer, whatsoever. If you can find a source, IƦll believe it, but the way things are with tobacco/snus in Norway, regular cigarettes are not preferred, in any way.
