Look and Feel Issues

I will make my form of media mostly informative, with probably a bit of  humor here and there. As for the colors, fonts, and design layout, anything would suit it, so long as it falls under a uniform patter or a set of colors and designs that compliment one another. Any graphs for what I would put I've yet to decide on what to use. As for audio, I plan to record my own voice with a little bit of music in the background. I'm not to sure what kind of PSA I plan to use, but I am veering off toward a preference.

In my first chosen PSA that I viewed (the link is above), I found it very interesting. One very distinct characteristic that I noticed right off the bat was that it was produced in a different language. This definitely caught my attention, so I continued to watch. From the PSA, I understood it to show that those with a physical disability aren't immediately disqualified from doing what they wish to do. In this instance, a boy who wished to play soccer with all the kids outside wasn't able to, or so it seemed; however, at the end of the video, the boy is shown playing soccer with all the other kids along with another child on the bottom right who also has a physical disability.

I definitely enjoyed this PSA because of its factual simplicity. It didn't find the need to appeal to an ethical stand point, nor did it do so with an emotional stance. This video had these two characteristics, but it didn't neglect the facts that were simply presented to the viewer in a manner that was the lease likely to confuse.
