Research: Other Student's Work.

As part of my research, I have used video search engine YouTube to be able to view a wider range of Soap Opera adverts that other students have created from different colleges. Below are a few examples of the ones that I have viewed:

Each one of these videos are fantastic examples of Soap Opera adverts, and have helped me expand from my initial ideas to create more of a variety. 

An example would be that I have realized that Soap Operas are based around drama - the more dramatic an advert, the more attention and audience ratings that the Soap is likely to attract. 

Due to the 'common' stigma that seems to be attached to Hull's accent, I have decided that I do not want any spoken audio to be used within my Soap Opera advertisement. Instead, I am going to use a song continuously throughout the duration. 

I've also concluded that storylines such as teenage pregnancy, and murder get used far too often, which so not to bore the audience, I am going to choose storylines that I feel my target audience will be able to relate too.
