Falling Polar Bears

Were doing a good part of what is said to be effective, such as the part about not needing volume to still send the message, and that it hopefully grabs the attention of teens and people with constant links to high school life. We could work on making the message powerful to the point where people want to jump out of their chairs and go out push for our message. Our PSA will be effective because of our intended audience and that our message applies so strongly to that audience, also, i think it will be effective in showing how schools need to update themselves with our modern society.

Our group is currently planning all of are shots and our locations for those shots. Our story board have given us a good idea of the possible angles and kinds of shots were going to want to do to emphasize all the right things in our video. We are also in the process of planning all of our audio, and when to have generic music and when to just have the ambients of the local setting. Were also trying to find a way to get a school bus to utilize, whether that be by using one in the morning before school or calling and seeing if someone would help us out for a little while. Overall i think our timeline and general shot ideas are pretty solidified, we just need to figure out all the actual shooting conditions we want for the video. Figuring that out seems to be our current hurdle.

Planning the shots, its been hard to decide what too do with angles and whatnot to emphasize the right thing and make our message clear. Its hard to get all the details and what not right. Its a lot harder as a process than i thought it would be. The storyboard really helped wih this though, which is good.

I think our pitch went really well, we kept it relaxed and kind of theatrical and it felt like the message got through. But, we did miss some important details that would have helped with the feel and message of the psa. Overall i think we did really good. Our message is very much in the communities interst, partly because it pertains specifically to south high and high school. Its in the interests of students teachers and the administration. Our target audience is those involved in high school, not just the kids, we want to show the adults too that his is a good idea! Our style will appeal strongly to the students and also make teachers hink about how they teach their classes.
