For my media coursework, I am creating two 40-60 second advertisements for the health drink Naked. The target audience is young, active people who engage in outdoor activities and sports. I chose Naked because it’s known for its natural ingredients and refreshing flavours, which could also work with health-conscious people who seek both physical and mental energy boosts. In the first advert, I will represent a relatable, middle-class teenager, aged 14-18, to appeal to the young/youth demographic. The character is shown in a park setting, feeling exhausted after physical activity. The setting includes diegetic sounds of a lively park, which shows the active environment. A handheld medium shot will emphasize the casual feel, showing the teenager pulling out a Naked drink for an instant energy boost. To engage the target audience, I’ll use non-diegetic background music to keep energy levels high, combined with a voiceover that reinforces the drink’s benefit, "Fuel your adventure with

For my media coursework, I am creating two 40-60 second advertisements for a health drink which is targeted at young, active people. The purpose of these is to show how drinks can provide a quick boost of energy which helps people stay refreshed and physically and mentally energised throughout the day. I want to show that Naked drinks are perfect for those who enjoy physically active sports and outdoor activities. The establishing shot of advert one will begin with a shot of a sunny park which is filled with lively sounds of children (diegetic sound) playing in the park and people jogging around. The main character, a middle class teenager, will be shown sitting on a bench looking tired after playing, then a handheld medium shot will show the casual nature of the scene. The teenagers will then feel the need for more energy before introducing the product Naked. Naked will be shown in a close-up (packed shot), with the character pulling it out of their bag and taking a big sip. The s

Innocent 1) What is the unique selling point of the product?  The unique selling point is where it comes from and how healthy it is compared to other drinks 2) What audience do you think this is aimed at? Add as much detail as possible (e.g. demographics, psychographics) and explain why. I think it is aimed at young adults to old adults to try change their diet and make it better, 3) What do you notice about the technical construction of the advert? Pick out one thing you like about the advert from camerawork, editing, sound or mise-en-scene. You may want to focus on TV advert conventions such as voiceover for example.  The technical convention of the advert that i have noticed is the mise-en-scene like the costumes it is very normal and simple. 4) What representations can you find in the advert? This may be representations of people or groups or perhaps the brand itself. One representation could be the brand and how natural it shows to be in the adverts and where the ingredients are d
