As part of the first year of my foundation degree there was a video editing module, this module covered the basics of video editing in Adobe Premier Por and After Effects as well as storyboarding and script writing. The module brief assigned to us to advertise or showcase a product, this could have been anything such as a video game or sticky notes, the product I chose to advertise was corn.

I don't for the life of me know why I chose corn but I found the idea of creating an elaborate advertisement for corn to be hilarious, the original concept was to have been a riff on perfume advertisements or fine wines. Unfortunately after the script and storyboarding was developed the pandemic struck and I was unable to film the advertisement so instead we was given the option to throw out our original ideas and film something entirely new and Covid safe.

After discussing the problem with a classmate he suggested I create something in Farm Simulator and so in the end I created a corn lobbying advertisement using scenes captured from Farm Simulator and borrowing a friend from the United States who has a fantastic microphone to provide a voice over.
