Creating an Interactive Product
‘Out and Up’ is a company that runs team-building exercises for young adults. The company has recently bought a small plot of woodland and has set up an activity centre that includes an assault course and a café.
‘Out and Up’ want to use new technology to advertise this new activity centre to youth groups. You have been asked to produce an interactive multimedia product that would advertise the facilities available at the centre in a manner that would appeal to adults between the ages of 17 and 23. ‘Out and Up’ are aware that this advertising could take many different forms and are happy for you to decide on an appropriate format for your product. However, the product must have a consistent style throughout.
‘Out and Up’ already has a reputation for creating exciting team-building exercises and wants to continue this reputation with the new activity centre. They are keen that the advertising that is created for the centre should reflect their reputation.
