Screen Based Communication

On Monday the 25th January we were introduced to the new brief: Screen based communication 1. For this brief we have to create a 30-90 second animation visually explaining a statistic and its critical stance. The animation has to persuade the viewer that my argument is correct.

I have chosen to use the statistic: 'Music has the power to relieve depression by up to 25%.' (I found this on this statistic on the BBC News Website.) I researched into the affects of music and found out that: music genres such as, Pop and Dance have been proven to affect peoples emotions in an up-lifting way. I also found out that genres such as Harp, Classical, Chanting and Mediative music can strengthen the immune system.

I am going to use music and graphical imagery alongside one another to reinforce my musical statistic. I want the audience to feel more upbeat and happier after watching my animation. And therefore my statistic would be proven correct.
