Public Service Announcements (PSA)...

  • Write a three paragraph blog post.
    1. Explain to me your understanding of what a PSA looks like. How is it different from a commercial? How is it similar?
    2. Who would you like to work with and why? Give me multiple options here.
    3. What are five potential PSAs that you think are needed for your target age group (teens). (this is a list)
    4. Select three of these ideas and tell me how you would approach it if you were assigned this as a PSA.

Show only topic 8

A Public service announcement is a small commercial which works by giving educational lessons. Doesn't sell a product. It helps to inform people about a certain thing. Is quick and direct. Gives facts so peope are aware that it is true.It is similar to a commercial because they are talking about a product, though in the PSA doesn't sell the product.
I would like to work with: Debora. Because she is my neighbor, we have similar ideas, we put effort on project, she encourages me to do a better job, and i always end up having fun with her.
My other option is Adriana, shes creative too, i like doing projects with her cause its fun, and i get to teach her lots of things. She has lots of materials, she follows orders and she understands what the theme is.
My last option, is Mahonrry, he is s good guy who is wiling to cooperate, he gives lots of ideas and supports opinions.He is such a responsible guy, and an excellent partner while working.

Five things i could do my PSA about:
1.not smoking
2.driving under alcohol dangerous
3.texting while driving
4. dont do drugs
5.Aids

The ones i will select would be: not smoking, driving under alcohol is dangerous, and texting while driving.
Not smoking, i would do a announcement about the effects of smoking, and why is it bad for your health. I would tell a personal story, so people actually get awared of it,and they take it serious.
The driving under alcohol influence, i would say why is it bad.. what does it cause? how you can KILL people. you can kill from an stranger to your own famiy, or even take away your own life. Mostly say reasons, and do a shocking video about it. What people find socking, it stays in their continence.
And for the texting while driving, i would oviously put the concecuentces to that act, and some shocking pictures, Showing some cause and effect. Perhaps making a trumatic sene, and how in a matter of seconds life can change.

For my PSA i will really do it based to somehting shocking, because from a shocking image that is in your head you are aware of what you shouldnt dom because you dont wanna end like the picture you saw.
