Good ad, Andy!!! Keep it up!
B+ for the static ad, C for the vid.
Some feedback:
Big fan of AC, but as advertising, this could use some work. The term probably should be hyphenated…stop over-criminalization.
It’s a complex issue that doesn’t lend itself to sparse word blurbs, or sentences, even. I’m not sure that those unfamiliar with this issue will get it, much less find it compelling.
Personally, I find the concept that the US is 5% of the world’s pop, but has 25% of the world’s prisoners more compelling vs the point about no one knowing how many laws are on the books.
The line “We need Representatives who will…” makes sense, but would it make more sense to say something like “AC will…”
I like it Andy. Good for you. Best wishes.
I’ll have more videos to come, including voice-over narration and appearing myself. This was really just a rough first attempt to put one of my infographic memes into a video format. I intend to get some of them down into :30 or maybe even :15 clips that can be used for targeted youtube and online ads.
