Det här examensarbetet är utfört på programmet Grafisk design och kommunikation vid Linköpings Universitet under vårterminen 2009. Syftet var att ta reda på hur väl de olika delarna i en processmodell från boken The Fundamentals of Creative Advertising av Ken Burtenshaw, Nik Mahon och Caroline Barfoot kunde appliceras på ett projekt, vilka delar som inte fungerade i praktiken och vilka för- och nackdelar som fanns.För att pröva processmodellen valde vi att genomföra en fallstudie i form av ett skarpt projekt på reklambyrån Acne Advertising. Genom att tillämpa modellen under arbetets gång fick vi en bra bild av hur modellen fungerar i praktiken.Våra slutsatser är att Burtenshaw med fleras processmodell är en välfungerade modell som går att applicera på ett typiskt projekt inom reklam. Alla steg i processen är genomtänkta och hakar i varandra på ett naturligt sätt. Där den ena tar slut tar den andra vid genom att utveckla den framtagna informationen i föregånde steg.

I will write about product placement in film from a Swedish point of view. This entails writing about Swedish films with different types of product placements, not only how they are done but also discuss how they succeed from a sales perspective.
