Statement of Intent: task

Statement of Intent: Vitamin Water Advert This 50-60 second advert for Vitamin Water aims to capture the essence of vitality, energy, and well-being in a visually engaging and emotionally resonant way.

You absolutely must film in landscape as the brief is clear that it is a TV advert and therefore to be broadcast on a normal TV channel. For the real coursework you will need a lot more shots which will give you more flexibility over the editing – particularly close-ups of both the product and the characters. Finally, you will also want some text on scr
