Don't be afraid to make your infomercial a little comic, like the boy in the video. These types of adverts are always a little absurd, so they actually do tend to be funny! Also, remember I don't expect you to edit your video, like the one here. It can just be a straighforward 2.5-3 minutes recording but do be EXTRA CAREFUL WITH PRONUNCIATION ENJOY AND HAVE FUN WITH IT!
