PSA

Our PSA project was fairly easy to do once we got our idea set in stone. We were unsure of whether we wanted to go with a PSA on texting etiquette or texting while driving. No one in our group has any experience in filming and none of us were interested in acting so we decided to take clips of Youtube. After sifting through a variety of videos we came up with a song and a variety of facts. With Trevors patience and learned expertise we were able to complete our PSA.

As far as its effectiveness as a PSA I think that it is pretty good. It has the ability to hit home and maybe make you think twice about texting while driving and the facts help reiterate this. The video is clear and concise. We state the facts right away, however, I wish we could have come up with a catchier title. I really think that due to our lack of expertise in the area, we did a really good job. I know that everyone in our group was a little nervous about the editing part, but we pulled it off. The storyboard was the hardest part, however, in the end we knew that simplicity would probably be better, since that seemed to be the case with the most effective PSA's that we looked at in class. All in all, our team worked well together and were able to designate duties fairly. I am sure Sarah would agree as well, but thanks to Trevor because he stepped up to the plate to learn how to use the program and try to edit it all together. He did a great job!
