PSA Article Comments

     From the article on the PSA I learned about how talking about the results is important,it shows 

why somethings are effective, and how having one core message is really important. I also agree with the article that diction is very important, using the right word choice is the difference between a serious PSA and a lackluster PSA. Along with that, having a very clear message is effective.

     I liked this PSA because of they way the set the tone. They did this through their word choice and the key of the music. Its a minor key which gives it that darker tone. They also did a good job of outlining the problem and a solution. This video also used good clips for visuals.

     I liked both of these PSAs because of the shared messages and their appeal to emotion. They appeal to our jobs as citizens to vote on the right people, and they tell of the story of the Americans. They also use great imagery and great clips. These videos also change the mood to hopefulness at the end through great use of music at the end. Both of these videos also have a clear message.

PSA Intent

• The key point of my video is that renewable petrochemical fuels are the future of energy, and will help prevent climate change (these fuels will recycle the carbon in the air).
• I think using music that is hopeful will set the mood for a brighter future, and I thik using bright images will give viewers feeling of hope.
• I will have an optimistic PSA.
• I am unsure of the structure of my video right now.
