Final Storyboard

 This is my attempt at the final storyboard

Mini self reflection:

The drawing was challenging and very consuming yet i finished it all. Everything went according to how i want it to look. All shots are exactly how i wanted it to be and the duration of the ad is exactly 30 seconds.

Critical Self Reflection

 

This is my attempt to create the critical self reflection for my final storyboard

self-reflection Media Studies by Nicholas Limardi

mini self reflection:

The presentation was more difficult rather than the drawing, the amount of words I used was way more than it should have been. Although finished i still think that i could improve in describing the scenes and answering some of the questions..
 

1st Draft Storyboard

 This is my attempt in creating the draft of the final storyboard

Mini self reflection:

After finishing my first storyboard draft and getting feedback I will change some scenes such as the scenes where i sponsored other luxury products instead, using famous brand ambassadors of famous products. 

Storyboard practice

 This is my practice for the final storyboard

Mini self reflection:

Determining what type of shot was the easiest. The drawing was hard due to my lack in drawing skills. It helps me practice drawing and how to explain my drawing. I would explain better and if i could draw better. I would need to determine which scene is a different shot and determine if they are different.

Proposal for storyboard

This is my attempt to create a proposal for the storyboard i will be making

My advertisement will feature Jaguar Eyewear. In the ad, I will target an older(60) and rich audience. It will start showing a blind man walking in style and full of confidence going out of the Jaguar store and out to the sidewalk after buying the eyewear. Greeting everyone else with pride. He starts walking but since he is blind he walks into a pole and acts like nothing happened. Everyone else was looking in confusion but he still walked with confidence. But he walked in the wrong direction. After hitting the pol he went left which was away from the sidewalk and into the streets. A Jaguar car stops first with a perfect brake and no accidents. Random brands of cars behind the Jaguar car start crashing into each other. A truck from the other direction did not have enough time to stop and crashed into the blind man. He died and went to heaven still wearing the glasses waving and greeting all entities and god himself there.

The ad ends there and the video shows the slogan "You can't see people but people see You"  

After some discussions, the new ad will be: 

My advertisement will feature Jaguar Eyewear. In the ad, I will target an older(60) and rich audience. It will start showing a blind man walking into a store all sad and depressed navigating with his stick. The camera stays outside showing the store and after a while, the blind man starts walking in style and full of confidence going out of the Jaguar store and out to the sidewalk after buying the eyewear. Throwing the stick he needed to help him navigate the streets. Starts walking and greets everyone else with pride. He starts walking but since he is blind he walks into a pole and acts like nothing happened. Everyone else was looking in confusion but he still walked with confidence. But he walked in the wrong direction. After hitting the pole he went left which was away from the sidewalk and into the streets. A speeding car did not have enough time to stop before hitting the blind man that is still waving. 

Before the crash, the advertisement ends with the slogan "Almost the perfect eyewear"

3. Meaning and Interpretation
- The advertisement shows an enjoyable life with the help of insurance. Covering their property damage and helping them feel safe.

4. Effectiveness
- The advertisement was eye-catching and effective although it doesn't explain the service they are offering. The advert has a popular rapper Snoop Dog that could help them gain attention and recognition. 

5. Personal Response
- The advert was overall very eye-catching and it did catch my attention. It had some humor such as using an invisible car and it showed how effective the insurance was. The random white guy lived a cool and enjoyable life.

6. Comparative Analysis (Optional)

Brief Overview/Summary: Gorilla playing the drums to promote the chocolate bar  

1. Target Audience:
- Both genders
-  Men
- Younger audience 

2. Message and Purpose
- Using a gorilla to play the drums makes the advert humorous and memorable

3. Meaning and Interpretation
- Eat chocolate

4. Effectiveness
- The advertisement was effective by using a gorilla and a purple background to show that there is still a hint of Cadbury in the advertisement. It uses a popular song amongst older people and a gorilla to attract younger audiences. 

5. Personal Response
- The advert was unique, humorous, and very random. Not only is it effective but it is also memorable. The gorilla was a random character playing drums to a phill collins song.

6. Comparative Analysis (Optional)
The advert has a different

Advert 4
Title of the Advertisement: Mastin The Ekstrak Kulit Manggis - The Best TV Commercials in Indonesia [HD]
Brand/Product: Mastin
Duration of the Advertisement: 30 seconds
Brief Overview/Summary: The brand promotes its product by showing the effects of consuming the product on a daily basis. Having a character with glowing skin in a field full of mangosteens living happily and cheerfully by consuming herbal medicine.

Advert 5
Title of the Advertisement: IKLAN BEAR BRAND - 30s (2021)
Brand/Product: Bear Brand 
Duration of the Advertisement: 30 seconds
Brief Overview/Summary: The advertisement was about a dragon protecting the earth from a strange creature. 

1. Target Audience:
- Mostly to a younger audience (4-12)
- Male
- The advertisement has a setting where it is placed in the jungle but voiced over by an Indonesian voice actor. This does not generally mean the product is only meant for Indonesian. Other foreigners can also try the product but the product is only available in Indonesia meaning the target audience is the people of Indonesia. 

2. Message and Purpose
- The milk is shown as a protector to imply the message of the milk as an immune system protecting our body from viruses/diseases. The dragon wins the fight against the strange creatures showing dominance over the creature. This connects to the nutrition facts of the milk, the milk helps prevent diseases from entering the body further increasing our body's immune system. The ad was published during the covid times when 'susu beruang'/'bear brand' was believed to be the cure/medicine that could prevent being tested positive for the virus. The advertisement shows the product at the end of the video. The packaging of Bear Brand products can influence their convenience and ease of use. Good powdered milk should have packaging that keeps the product fresh and prevents clumping. 

3. Meaning and Interpretation
- The idea of this ad is that not everything healthy is unpleasant which in this video is the milk itself. 
- The creature in the advertisement is shown to destroy nature and kill all the living factors in the area. Greeneries such as grass/trees dying and losing their color changing to grey and black. This implies that the creature acts as the disease that wants to destroy our bodies. The dragon is shown in bright white colour, showing that the dragon is the hero of the video. The dragon acts as our body's protector defeating every disease that enters our body.  

4. Effectiveness
- The advertisement was effective, not only did they have a decent animation the advertisement described the scene and the purpose of the dragon. Not only random animations the ad shows the product being promoted. The original packaging and the product being advertised. Although the product is only available in Indonesia it could attract audiences from another country. It attracts milk enthusiasts 

5. Personal Response
- I would say that the advertisement was effective and impressive. It is also very memorable as no other brands or products use a white dragon entering a can with a logo of a bear. It is also very fun to watch as the colors are very appealing. The advertisement could also impact Indonesia socially, its dragon reviving greeneries
