Q1. Explain how your products challange, develop, or form conventions of real media products?

Q2. How effective is the combination of your main product and ancillary tasks?

We created 3 moving images, and then a radio advertisment. The two main adverts link as the are obviously promoting the same product and end with the same image at the end. The slogon we used on an advert and Tv sponership was "New Bigger Pot, new bigger taste". We chose to sponsor Brtiania High. This contradicts the usual unhealthy product noodles are usually known for as people are exercising with them. This makes the advert cheesy, crude and unforgettable.
This links these together as audiences will recognise the quotation. If i was to do these advert again, i would use more photoshop elements, and would also try and create some more original ideas. We tried to create humour within our adverts, however humour is a diverse thing. Here is a video explaining our media products we created.



Script

For our practical we made two adverts, a TV sponsership and a radio advertisment. We wanted to promote a convinience food snack, similar to that of the exisiting product 'Pot Noodle'. We researched exisitng adverts to get an idea of what kind of genre we wanted to do, and we decided on comedy.

For one adverts we did a simple story of a girl wanting a 'Doodle Noodle' and makin it quickly ending with her doing a cheesy smile.

For the other advert we did a narrative of a boy telling his mate his date went really well, but ironically it didn't as on the date he pulled out a Doodle Noodle to eat and she was no impressed.

Both adverts are simple narrative because it can't be too complex as we only have a 30 second duration.

For the sponsership advert we created a cheese shorter advert. Sponerships do not always directly link to the product but do help promote the sponsership. We chose to sponser a progamme called 'Britania High' a musical drama aimed a teenagers. This link with the three aerobic dancers, and also the target audience.

For our radio avdertisment we researched other exisiting adverts. We recorded a woman seriously enjoying her 'Doodle Noodle' but then her husband catching her out eating it. This creates humour as the audience are unaware of whats going on, but then we use our slogan 'New bigger pot, new bigger taste'.

Overall we felt we achieved what we set out to do, and mateched the genre and shots of other exisiting adverts that we researched.

We promoted our product at the end of the adverts by photoshopping a picture of our product onto a black bacground, creating a still frame, and adding titles with a voice over slogan.
