Audience Feedback
Audience feedback questions.
Did you understand the concept of the advert?
Is it entertaining?
If the advert isn't entertaining, why?
Is there anything to add into the advert?
What did you think about the characters in the advert?
Afsarah said that she did understand the concept but with that we make it a bit more clear because the advert that I created was okay but there was a lot of parts where we would be talking when it doesn't relate to the advert, so she was confused if it was a part of the advert or wasn't. To fix that I'm going to edit out the part that we don't need for e.g, parts where I would talk over the actors or when the actors bring character. To make sure that the audience watching the final product would get confused on if that's part of the advert or not. She also said that the characters in this advert did a good job so I don't need to worry about changing them.
Zayna said that she could understand the advert because its just people running to get chocolate. She said it would be entertaining if the clips were a bit shorter because it's too long for an advert. When I edit my advert i will have to make sure it is shorter because in the brief it says that it has to be around 30 seconds. Zayna also said how we should add some joyful or cheery music in the background, just to make it more entertaining and better to watch.
Pravini said the same thing about how we should make the clips shorter. She also said that they was clips where Simona and Reemu would be in the frame when they shouldn't be, so i'll have to go through the clips and take out shots that have the characters in frame when they aren't supposed to be. She stated that there were some clips that she liked and some that she didn't. Since i am going to make the advert shorter i will take out any of the shots that i don't like.

Pitch reflection
1) With the questions that the audience asked me, one of the most common ones were "How would you get children to act on your TV advert" and I thought I could get my nieces and nephews, but they probably wouldn't know what to do or even want to do it. So, I am going to make my friends do the TV advert and change the target audience to teenagers because if I am not going to be being children in my TV advert it wouldn't be targeted to them.
2) Another thing that I need to improve of is the slogan. My original slogan was "unwrap it, eat it, bin it" but with mini eggs you don't unwrap it because it comes in a packet. I changed it to " A moment of delight" which I like more than the one I originally went for.
3) When I presented my presentation, I didn't look at the audience, which is something that I need to improve on because if I'm trying to present my campaign to the audience, I will also need to have my attention to them. I was either looking at the screen or putting my head down which would make the audience uninterested in my presentation.
4) Next time I would need to make my presentation more interesting because I sounded a bit boring. I was nervous since it was my first presentation that I've done in a while. To do that I would need to have memorised key information that was in my PowerPoint and make it more amusing towards the audience.
5) I was a bit quiet when I was presenting my PowerPoint because I was nervous, but I would need to raise my voice a bit so that the audience can clearly understand what I'm saying.
6) I would need to make my ideas more detailed so that the audience could understand where I am coming from because the audience were a little confused on what was going to happen in my TV advert. I would need to make it clear on what's happening in the TV advert, who is going to be in my TV advert and how it is going to be unique from all the other TV adverts that are also advertising mini eggs.
7) My PowerPoint doesn't have a lot of writing as a whole but there were some slides that have a lot of writing so, I would need to only include the important and main facts that I need and erase anything that bit be irrelevant to the slide or having a little bit of too much information.

Rationale for final idea
From my Initial ideas I picked the Mini eggs idea, and I am going to be doing a print advert for the Cadbury's mini eggs and one YouTube advert that is going to have people going for an egg hunt and see how many mini eggs they can get in their small basket. The reason I chose this idea was because I wouldn't need any extra resources except from a basket and some mini eggs. I wouldn't need to spend money on getting extra equipment because it is already available to me. Also, because it seems really fun to do and the audience would like it a lot because it's like a treasure hunt but with mini eggs instead. The children would want to buy it or ask their parents to buy it for them because of the advert.
The strengths for the first idea is that I can explore the different shots and settings on the camera and also explore the different types of editing. I am also able to shoot outdoors easily with my camera and tripod to keep the camera in place. For the legal requirements the advert wouldn't have any harmful or offensive content that I would need to be aware of. This is why I chose this idea because I would realistically be able to do it.
With the second idea it would be a print advert and it would include lots of images to make the print advert look nice. The only problem with this would be that I have never done a print advert before but it would also be a good thing since I would get to learn new skills in something that I have never done before. For the legal requirement the advert wouldn't have any harmful or offensive content. This is why I chose this idea because I would be able to do it and also have new skills from learning how to do a print advert.
With the third idea it would be a radio advert, the strengths with a radio advert is that i am familiar in doing one. The weakness of it is that we can't rely on images/ videos and also I might need extra people helping me with this, since I would need a range of voices for my radio advert. Also radio adverts would take more time to do since we would also have to include Foley sounds. For the legal requirements I'll have to make sure that its copyright free music and that it is not harmful or offensive towards anyone. This is why I haven't chose this advert for the Cadbury product.

The cadburys product I have selected
History of Cadbury's mini eggs:
I have chosen mini eggs because I like the chocolate and I also liked the chocolate and the idea for my advert.
The Cadburys chocolate mini eggs were introduced in 1967 Mini Eggs - Wikipedia.
The audience for this product would be children to young adults because it's nice, sweet and it also has a shell, so it has a crunch as well. You can eat it whenever you want because it has small chocolate eggs, where you can take anywhere you go. In 1967 the packaging was a different it had white background, with the text being white as well, with some blue colour and also has yellow chicks in it.
Now the packaging has a yellow background with random colourful circles, with little mini eggs surrounding the package. The background is yellow, and the title is in Purple since Purple and yellow are their colours now.

Explanation of your prior experience of and learning similar products
My prior experience is planning and producing work in media. where we did several units in media like Unit 14/16, Unit 15, Unit 3 and Unit 2.
In Unit 14/16 we did a Radio drama that was about this girl named Avery goes to the dark web and meets a person that she things is a similar age to her but when they do meet up in real life it's not as she expected, and we needed to plan it out before we started on it. We needed a script for the voice actors, voice release form, conducting recce's, legal and ethical issues, considerations, funding, launch date, production schedule, to plan what we are doing for the week so that we are prepared and a key personnel list. For Unit 15 we had to do the same thing but instead of a radio drama we did a TV ident and we had to do things like a risk assessment and location recce because in an ident the risk assessment and location recce is more important because the audience would be able to see the environment instead of just listening to it like you would do in a radio drama. In Unit 3 I learnt how to do a thriller trailer which is called 'Revenge' where we did things like Storyboards and shooting scripts. We also did an animatic that we didn't do in the radio drama or the TV idents, which meant that I learnt a new skill while doing this particular unit because before then I didn't know how to do an animatic. Animatic was like a storyboard but with sound effects and what we did is just used our storyboards and edited it so that it looked like an animation.
I feel like now I have a lot of experience with the camera and all the different shots that I would need to include, such as mid shots, long shots, close-up, wide angle etc. Which was from the thriller trailer for unit 3. I also have experience on shooting videos that are 4 minutes long and also videos that are short that are about 30 seconds which was the TV ident. Which shows that I can do videos that are long and also short. I have a lot of experiences with scripts and planning pre-production like mood boards, storyboards, legal and ethical requirements/issues since I did one for Unit 3, Unit 14/16 and also Unit 15. I also have experience with editing since I edited in most of my units that I did. My weakness would be a print advert since I haven't done that yet.
The area I would need to develop on is the print advertisement because I've never done it before, so I would need to know how to put the images in the right place to make it look nice. To make sure to use the colour scheme for the company, for Cadbury it would be purple, orange and white. I would also need to add text on the print advert so that the audience would know what I am talking about. I would also need to get familiar with using photoshop, I have used it before but I am not as good with it as I am with editing in Final Cut Pro.

Response to the client brief
Demographics
The audience would be interested in chocolate and would be a younger audience because most younger audience's love chocolate because of its sweetness. To ensure that my advertisement appeals to my audience is to make sure that the advert is colourful because most chocolate wrappers have a lot of colours in them for e.g., in creme egg there's colours like orange, yellow and purple. The advantage for this advertising campaign for this audience is that chocolate advertising campaigns are usually on YouTube so it's easy for them to watch it. Another advantage is when making a print advert or a poster, it's easy for the audience to see it because posters are usually everywhere especially if there's a new chocolate advertising campaign. A disadvantage is when it's on an advert in a radio because most younger audiences don't listen to radio as much unless they're in their parent's car. Another disadvantage is when it's on an advert like Spotify where there isn't a video of the advert and just the voice. It would be hard for younger audiences to know what type of chocolate it is and also see the amusing advert that you would see in YouTube or in a poster.
Conventions
Adverts usually include a slogan like KFC's slogan is "finger lickin' good" and it needs to be the same slogan for each campaign. A colour palette that needs to be the same for each advertisement. The text would need to be the same font for each advertisement like the same text font would need to be used in the print and Tv advert. The characters would need to be the same for each advertisement for e.g., there should the same characters you used in the print advert also in the TV advert. A logo will need to be included in my work because that's how the audience will remember the advert by. I would need to include actors and also voice actors in my advertising campaign. I would include the voice acting in the start of the advert where it's taking about the chocolate. I would include the slogan at the end of the advert because in most adverts they add the slogan at the end.
Industry requirements
The institution that my advertising campaign is being produced for is Cadbury chocolate. Cadbury chocolate is a British multinational confectionery company that is owned by Mondelez international since 2010 and its also the second largest confectionery brand in the World Cadbury - Wikipedia. The advantages with Cadbury chocolate are that they are very responsible for advertising because they are a well-known brand because it is one of the biggest chocolate confectionery brands. The disadvantage of working in cadbury is that they are limited to product range, product recall and lack of rights. One of the regulatory issues is that cadbury would need to make sure that they have documents on the people that work there and they have giving them permission about being involved. They also need to make sure that their packaging is their own and aren't copying a style such as galaxy chocolate. Cadbury is a well-known chocolate brand with a distinct organisational structure, market segmentation, distribution strategy and promotional strategy. Its organisational structure is one of hierarchies, with a clear understanding of who is in charge and who is in charge of carrying orders.

Mediums
The medium i will be working on is a poster and a YouTube advert. The poster will have print advertisement with images and a colour scheme and i'll have an amusing YouTube advert for Cadbury chocolate to promote the product. The genre that will fit into my text is adventure because it would be engaging for the audience to see and would also make them want to buy the product.
