Question

What techniques (sound, videos, images, layout, etc.) would you use in your segment? What tone or level of formality would you use? If you chose to interview a member of the Marching Band, how might that bring bias into your segment?

Answer 1

Describe the approach you would take in the creation of this media:

The approach will be through short advertisements. In this advertisement, it can include 15 seconds teaser performance of the members of the marching band's performance, or it can be a documentation of the expectations and excitement of the fans. 

Through these simples ways, more audience will be influenced and curious about the Marching Band. Hence, attract more people. 

What techniques (sound, videos, images, layout, etc.) would you use in your segment?

Our advertisement will highlight the teaser performance of the Marching Band and testimonies of the fans through video-recording. To make it more appealing, we will use lively sounds and bright cinematographies. 

What tone or level of formality would you use? 

We will use a conversational tone to bridge friendly connection and increase engagement with the audience. This to highlight fun and sense of unity that people can expect while watching the performance. 

If you chose to interview a member of the Marching Band, how might that bring bias into your segment?

The burden is transferred to the member of the Marching Band as it means you only need to note questions and ask them on the spot. As a representative, you hold responsibilities to promote the Marching Band with your own creativity and method.
