Advert - Evaluation

The brief for the advert assignment was to create an advert, talking about preventing Identity theft on-line through social networking and communication sites. My primary target audience is mainly aimed towards teenagers aged between 15 and 19 year old males and females which like to go out with their friends to the cinema. My secondary target audience is aimed towards 7 and 14 year olds because they are the people that would watch TV and the adverts that would come on. I think that my advert is ideal for both my audience because the advert is childish which would appeal more to them which also has a bit of humour included.

My final idea was to create an advert that appeals to my targeted audience. To look at what I came up with, look at my blog via MY PITCH V.1.

Rationale for Final Idea

The public service advert that my peers have chosen out of the 2 pitches is the one with more detail because it is more detailed than the other one as well as it appealing to my targeted audience more.
