Three points stuck out to me from this article. One was that you have to get the audience into physical action, not just have them be more aware of your topic. Another was that your message should still be able to be conveyed if the t.v. is muted. The last point that stayed with me is to pull at the audiences heartstrings. I believe that my group has thought of these three things when creating our PSA. We have a strong message that Adderoll is only for people with ADHD. It is a prescribed drug and shouldn't be passed around from student to student. Also if the t.v. was muted I think that our message would still get across. We have a story going on throughout our PSA and hardly have any audio going on. Our PSA depends on visuals so we have this idea covered. We also pull at the heartstrings by the PSA being about a student, a lifestyle that our target audience can relate to. I may want to think more about the walking the fine line rule. We may be going too far by showing the girl pass out in the end of the PSA. That may be unlikely and push our topic too far. I will discuss this with my group. I believe that my groups PSA will be very effective because we put a lot of thought into our topic, and are showing the effects which will leave an impact on our audience.
