the most important goal

- To communicate a message.
- That's right.
So how is it
that companies make sure

Today, in order to learn
about advertising,
we are going to have
a very special guest speaker...
[engine revs]
And judging by that sound,
I think he's here!
[horn honks]
Students, I want you to meet
my very best friend
from college,
Mr. Jake Savage.
- Who wants this bike?
[all murmuring]
Well, tough turtles.
It's mine.
But you can win one of these
if you want to.
All you gotta do
is ask me how.
You, the kid
with the bushy hair.
- Uh...how?
- Son, you don't ask how
until you know what.
Dude,
do you know what this is?
- Some sort of scooter?
- Eehh! Wrong!
- Sorry.
- This,
my adolescent friends...
is the Jet X.
[honks]
I honk for emphasis.
- So what's a Jet X?
- I'm glad you asked that,
little blonde girl.
The Jet X is the absolute latest
technological advancement
in two-wheeled vehicular
technology.
It's fast, it's tough,
it's smooth,
and above all, it's cool.
You, the kid
with the hippie shirt,
you want a Jet X?
- Uh, yeah!
- Too bad!
They're not available in stores
till next year.
[laughter]
Yes, petite brunette.
- Um, so why are you here?
- I happen to be
the president
of Qualitech Industries.
- Qualitech?
- Yeah, we make stuff.
Scooters, shampoos,
various cheeses.
Mostly scooters.
- So what does this
have to do with us?
- Okay, there are three things
that you need
to sell an awesome product
like the Jet X.
First, you gotta have
great hair.
I got that.
Next, you need to have
a great product.
[imitates sizzle]
I got that too.
Now, who can tell me
what else you need
to sell the Jet X?
- A TV commercial?
- Yes!
And I want you people,
this class,
to make that TV commercial.
[all murmuring]
- But don't they have
companies that, like, do that?
- Yes,
and they're all idiots.
Because they think they
understand people your age.
But they don't.
Do you know who does
get people your age?
- People our age?
- Bingo, little girl!
I'd ask you to dance,
but I don't know how.
- Wait, so is this gonna be
like a class project?
- That's right.
You guys are gonna split
into groups of three.
Each group will have their own
digital video camera
and a supply of Jet X scooters
in various colors.
- Oh, dude.
ALL: Whoa!
- Okay, you've all got
one week
to sh**t a TV commercial
that shows teenagers
why the Jet X...
Is the ultimate scooter
on this planet.
And then, I'm gonna pick
the best commercial,
and I'm gonna run it on TV
[all murmuring]
Oh, and one more thing.
Each kid in the winning group
will receive
their very own Jet X
for free.
- Oh, nice.
- Dude.
- Awesome.
- Just not this one,
'cause like I said...
this one's mine.
[engine revs]
Savage out!
[engine revving]
Whoo-hoo!
[horn honks]
- Okay, we have got to win
a Jet X.
- Totally! Can you imagine
how fun it would be
to have those things on campus?
- So what's our commercial
gonna be?
- Okay, I've been thinking,
what we could--
MICHAEL: Hi. What's up?
- Go ahead.
Keep on talkin'.
- Ha-ha. Nice try, guys.
- We don't reveal our secrets
to the competition.
- Ooh.
- So who's your guys'
third partner?
- That'd be Logan.
- Logan?
- Why do you wanna work
with him?
- Because, you know,
he's our roommate, and--
- Hey, hey. Guys.
We don't talk to the enemy.
- Oh, please, this is just
a friendly competition.
- Yeah,
it's just a commercial.
- Hey, all I know is,
I want that Jet X.
So...
we are gonna win.
- He's touching
our shoulders.
- I feel you.
- Don't worry.
I'll let you borrow my Jet X
after our commercial wins.
- Or I'll give you a ride
on my Jet X.
Maybe I'll take you up the lake
and...
we can make out a little.
- You know, I would,
but it's so hard
for a girl to kiss a guy
while she's vomiting.
[laughter]
- It's true.
It happened to me.
- Okay, now, I feel that
the clothes for our commercial
should be really cool--
like funky.
- I'm down with funky.
- Okay,
so I sketched out a few
possible outfit combinations.
See?
- Cool, but how do we buy
these clothes?
- How do we buy these boobs?
- Yeah, I went a little
overboard on those.
- You can put everything
right over here by the grass.
Whoa, Chase,
careful with that camera.
It's worth more
than your parents' house.
- This thing isn't worth
more than my parents' house.
- It's a half a million dollars.
- This thing's worth more
than my parents' house.
- I think that's worth
more than your parents.
- Okay, boys, more work,
less yap.
- Yeah, why aren't you lugging
any of this stuff?
- Because I am the director.
My job is to direct.
- Oh, right.
- I got something
for you to direct.
- I heard that.
Will somebody bring me
a sandwich?
- Okay, what is
all this stuff?
- Just a little production
equipment,
donated by Malcolm Reese.
- Malcolm Reese?
- The movie producer?
- And he's also my dad.
Hey, that generator is not gonna
move itself.
Let's move!
- So your dad just gave you
all this stuff
to make your Jet X commercial?
- No, no, no, no, no.
He didn't give it to me.
He lent it to me.
Where's my jib?
I can't get cool sh*ts
without a jib!
- He gets to use all this
stuff.
- It's not fair.
- So not fair.
- Well, you know what?
I'll just ask my dad to donate
stuff for our commercial.
- Your dad's a producer too?
- No.
He owns a juice company.
Well, we're gonna get thirsty!
We will.
- His father lent him
a whole truck full of equipment?
- And a crew!
- And a camera that's bigger
than my head!
- How can our commercial win
if we have to compete with that?
- It's not fair.
All we get is free juice.
- Juice?
- It's excellent juice!
My favorite's
the kiwi pineapple.
- [intrigued] Kiwi pineapple?
- Will you forget
about the juice?
And what are you gonna do
about Logan?
- Girls,
when you're making
a TV commercial

it's not just about how fancy
your equipment is
