Creating a Microsoft website
I created this to show my knowledge on how to create a website in Microsoft word. I created this first using Microsoft word and then saving it as a web page. I rearranged it so that it looked more compatible with the style of the website layout. I added a hyperlink to the title of the video that once clicked shows a YouTube.
Coming up with ideas (Testing)
I need to try out different things to be able to create a simplistic but forward and emotional promotional poster about eating healthier.
Idea 1
reference/inspiration photographs:
I made this by hand drawing it using the inspiration from the photos about and using the quote I made up “You bad choices will catch up on you, only a matter of time”. Which I thought makes sense for the topic, however, I don’t think this targets bad health, however, the red vanes was supposed to represent the unhealthy food travelling around the body but I didn’t specify that it was about bad diet.
Idea 2
Reference/inspiration photographs:
Evaluation
This is the idea I came up with because I like how it sent a positive message towards eating healthy. I used a heart shape with fruit inside to advertise the idea of eating fruit and vegetable’s with a quote to go with that explains the message of eating healthy which explains the idea of the fruits surrounding the piece. I used a person with a question mark within to show that it relates to everyone and it doesn’t matter who you are you can feel better if you eat better.
Promotion Ideas
What I have learnt:
- Has to be forward and realistic to the realisation point.
- Has to be simplistic,
- Straight to the point ( so they don’t have to spend time choosing)
- Colour (Draws attention)
- Low prices so it compares to the chocolate
I could do:
- A poster which would be simplistic and straight to the colour, i could also make it colourful.
- An animation which could potentially be simplistic but complicated to make.
- A promotional video would be complicated to look at and would have different points to consider.
I have decided to create a poster to be forward and colourful but keeping a simplistic approach.
Different appliances I could use:
- Photoshop, make it cleaner and percise- might show more to the point.
- Handdrawn, could be quite messy and not a straight forward illustration of what’s happening.
- Using presentation, could work and be more formal to the audience but I feel it would be seen as a lesson and not something to consider.
Therefore I will use photoshop to create a promotional poster to encourage children my age to eat more fruit.
Popular Culture
How is fruit really being sold
research
When I think of fruit being sold, I think of big plastic containers and plastic bags that you put them in when you buy them separately. This can put young adults from being healthier options if they are trying to be more concerned about the environment. I decided to create a survey monkey to really see if people prefer eating chocolate over fruit and why to get more reasoning and to have more knowledge. I also wanted to see what my age group would say was we are of concern to the older generation in the sense of what we consume.
My results:
This clearly shows that people buy chocolate over fruit as only 1/13 people bought fruit which is 7.69%. This shows they prefer it over the chocolate.
Comments
These are some of the comments from when I asked why. Most replied as it was nicer and they prefered chocolate over fruits. Which means as a younger generation we are bothered more on pleasure than health and goodwill of ourselves.
Again people believe that it is easier to buy chocolate than fruit so they go for chocolate over fruit as the more difficult something is to purchase the more it will drive the community to ignore it.
Comments
The comments explain that it is easier to choose chocolate over fruit because it’s more complicated to choose a fruit than a bar of chocolate. They also do not enjoy fruit and chocolate is something they crave often and allow themselves to have.
Overall I have learnt that my age group likes an easy opportunity and they like to purchase things they have cravings for and they don’t like how complicated it is to buy fruit. Therefore, I will make something that’s eye-catching and simple so that people of my age group will be more inclined to purchase fruits.
Learning from others
Reasoning
I have decided to look at how other creators made their promotional mark on today world by trying to encourage young people to eat more fruits and vegetables. I thought if I looked at how others created the message I would develop my own ideas to create my own message.
ITV Advertisement
I think the idea of promoting vegetables and fruits as a game was a good idea to excite children into eating healthier. How it talks about how adults are eating healthy as so should kids. It this idea of them being stronger than there parents and being seen as more “grown-up” and enforcing the idea that they are doing good if they eat healthier. However, with all this in mind, I think the thought of war between humans and vegetables is a bit too violent, especially for young viewers who don’t yet understand and might believe that they are alive in some way and think they are out to get their parents. So with this in mind to be able to reach my target audience of young people but not just children I wouldn’t use the gaming method and create eating fruits as a way to protect their parents from invasion. I think if I wanted to be more respected by the older population because after all, they are the ones buying the weekly shop i would have to be more persuasive and use emotive language and real-life experiences.
Brief expectation
What we have been asked to do?
We have been asked to advertise the idea of eating fruit instead of unhealthy foods like chocolate because it is seen that chocolate is being sold more than fruits. We are expected to create a promotional video for the promotion of eating healthy and including more fruits into our diet. To do this I will look for inspiration and how other have tried to accomplish this before me and then I will criticise it to what I think could be improved as because I am apart of the younger generation I am fully aware of jow this is a real problem in today’s society
Things I like about college
L like being able to use equipment like cameras and lights to create scenes using different colours.
We are also very independent with our work and can take our time.
We get to talk and the lessons are more chilled and engaging then speaking in silence.
My Brand Logo
Ideas i came up with
This is a logo i created using a photo i found of the internet and combined it with my name using two text boxes. I coloured them black to create contrast against the pale pink background but felt like the pink background didn’t add dimension so i want to try it again but with a darker background.
This is an updated version of my logo i previously created however i changed the image to have more shapes to create more interest and changed the background colour to be dark to bring out the colours in the image.
