give blood group

Today i had to go on the internet and make a group for my campaign, i made the group on Facebook, as thats where i have a lot of people i know on there and that i can get people to join this group quite easily.

Thinking about poster designs.

In this lesson we had to think of two different designs for our campaign poster.
The things we had to think about that would be put on the poster were...

• Image
• Strapline
• Campaign logo
• Campaign Info
  

My Ideas for my two campaign posters i did were...


(ADDING THE TWO POSTERS HERE SOON)

Vox pot task

For this task we were put into groups, we had to film ourselves as if we were interviewing someone, and asking questions to people in our class or students around college about our campaigns, mine being 'Give Blood'.
In my group i had chloe, leanne, sunny, katie and matt. they all worked well as a group i thought.

My 3 campaign questions.

Here are 3 campaign questions i have to asked people if i was going to interview them.

1. have you ever given blood
2. if not, would you ever consider giving blood?
3. what are your opinions about giving blood?

I chose these 3 questions as i think i would get alot of feedback which would help me later on.

A lesson in the week.

A couple of weeks ago we had a lady come in to our college who came in to our classroom and did a talk on making us think of different ways to make a campaign. she taught us quite alot in that lesson about campaigns and what are good adavantages and dissadvantages on them.

• She showed us ways to get our information across to people, and how sometimes using things like leaflets are not as good as you thought they would be to get across, whereas a facebook blog can me sometimes better to use in what kind of campaign you are doing.
• she showed us a slideshow in the classroom of how much effort and time it take to actually put in to campaigns. Also about the campaign of 02, which was really good as it showed how it was put out to people in so many different ways. it was really well put out to the class which was really good.
• she then spoke about the NHS, and that campaign in how many different jobs there are in a hospital aswell. after that we had to do a task for her. which was done in groups, there were all different groups, being receptionist, doctors etc, but our group was about nurses in how they could make the patients feel better.
  
• In this task we worked well as a group and came up with a good poster. that had bright colours to stand out to people. bold writing that would make people read it, and the logo for them to know what the campaign is from and lastly an image for people to look at.

overall i really enjoyed this lesson, i got taught alot which has helped me. and also it was something different for the class.

Researching a campaign.
