Coursework Preliminary Exercise

Coursework Preliminary Exercise 1) Write a 100 word statement of intent explaining what you are going to make for your preliminary exercise. Statement of intent:  100 words explaining what you plan to make. I plan to create an advert around 30 seconds about a young student athlete who struggles with keeping a consistent pace in his running. To help combat this problem, the healthy + energetic drink will replenish his energy and make him feel refreshed, which will help him resume his run. It will start off with an establishing shot in a field with motivating and upbeat music, which will slowly fade away as the character gives up from stamina. At the middle point of the advert, the character will be reaching into their bag for the drink and cut seamlessly to the character drinking it, which shortly after will allow them to resume faster with determination, and the music will fade back in as an uprising climax moment, followed by the product's name titled in the last few seconds that...

Add as much detail as possible (e.g. demographics, psychographics) and explain why. In the adverts, there is an element of saturation in the environment surrounding the product. The background being nature reinforces the audience's view of healthiness & reliability on the brand. The display of the product is colourful and appropriate for younger ages. T he font is  child-like,  inviting and there are no use of CAPITAL letters to make the brand appear more friendly. Although this advert is reasonable for all ages, it is more appealing to the younger side and adults with healthy diets or children. 3) What do you n...
