Reflection Post 6

This week lecture and tutorial were all about writing a script and creating a storyboard for a 30 second Television Commercial.. Creating or writing something like this is never an easy task as there are certain considerations that you need to take note of. Based on the previous radio commercial we have done, we took that product/service and made it into a visual and audio instead of just an audio on a radio.

There were a few important considerations that we as a group learn while writing the script, creating the storyboard and shooting the television commercial. It is not an easy task to come up with a strong story line to get the viewers attention on the product/service. We came to a conclusion that keeping the script and storyboard simple, straight forward and understandable is the key points to a good television commercial.

As we were only given 30 seconds to create a television commercial, ideas were slightly limited as how we were suppose to put together a strong story line into just 30 seconds. Also, some considerations like would there be a continuation in the story line and so on. Furthermore, the key benefits for the product/service has to be highlighted in the television commercial and so does the steps on how one can use that product/service.

We as a group have also learnt that shooting the television commercial wasn't easy because the audio has to be loud and clear so that the viewers can hear what the message needs to be convey to them. Overall, as a group we did a good job in putting the script and storyboard together and the television commercial came out as we expected it to be.
