LO2 Local social action project research

Task 2






The videos linked below have the same point that i am trying to put across.





Task 3
The first video has a good point and it is a unique way of creating the video however i find that for the length of the video it doesnt have much going on and would not draw in and keep a large audience watching.

The second video has a good point and they have used several different ways to keep the audience watching switching from animation to real life story.i think however it is slightly long and may not keep an audience watching for that long.

After watching these two videos i have decided that my video must:
- show awarness to the danger of alcohol
- be fun and exciting to keep the audience entertained
- get across the point that the video is trying to show
- have different ways of communication (interviews, animation and role play)



A detailed account of the issue the social action project is trying to erase (look at stats and facts on the issue within the area)

The social action project ‘young addiction’ is trying to help young people who have problems with drinking or drugs in Oxfordshire to stop the addiction and get their lives back on track. It provides a confidential programme for youngsters giving them advice support and treatment.
