Posters, Leaflets and adverts

On the 19th of October we had to make a poster, leaflet and advert for the radio and T.V. ( T.V. ad is now being preformed at Browick primary school) Our posters and leaflets have been completed and I'm currently getting the materials for a robot costume for the performance. The radio ad has been drafted as well.

   I think we worked well as a group playing on each others strengths but we could have worked a little quicker and not changed our T.V. ad to a performance half way through. I also think we succeeded at all things as we are all happy with what we've done so far and can't find any big areas to improve on.

Charity example

Charity:
The Salvation army

Main message:
Based on the bible, to meet human needs in Jesus' name

Target Audience:
Anyone, especially people who feel sorry for people less fortunate than themselves. Attracts Christians as it is a christian group

Strategy:
hard hitting pictures, really trying to make you feel sorry for them. Advertising, collection boxes and groups on facebook and twitter.

Success?
Gets donations and volunteers but by being so heavily Christian they aren't getting the non-religious people and need to be different from all the other charities like them to receive more. As they are trying to help everyone it's  going to be very difficult to make the world perfect in there eyes.

Meeting people gets easier

If you've read my last post you'll know that I have a contact with Eugene from rockstar games, well I've emailed him asking if he could give me any tips on how to get ahead in the game and if I could come down and see actually what he  does in person. Great news! He's emailed me back saying that it would be fine to come down to the studio and see what happens next time I'm free and he has a cool job going on. In the mean time I have to get to grips on the software and stuff like that.

Open day at open

Today we went to open and listened to talks about careers in music, dance, performance, graphic design and animation. There were people who had different careers in each sector to tell us what it was about and how they got there. I found some more interesting than others because they were more what I wanted to do or there presentation was clearer and had pictures.



 I have luckily got Eugene from rockstar games email and I'm going to talk to him about a possible career with him or just some tips on how to be better than the rest.
