STUDIO BRIEF 1: Project Proposal
Project Rationale What do you intend to do and why? I intend to make a quick campaign to raise public awareness in using their right to vote in elections. There are so many unsatisfied people out there with the result of elections lately, not just one country but in many countries. On the contrary a lot of people chose not to vote – whatever their reasons are – and as a result worst-case scenario happened. They forget they do take parts in something they did not like as a result and complains about it afterwards. I saw this social problem as a dark joke by itself, so I’m going to approach this case using that tone of voice to ‘attack’ right back at them using fast-paced and effective persuasion, hoping that they will change their mind next time and actually take parts to vote in elections in the future. I aim to make them realise that their voices do count, and a vote is better than no vote at all.
