Brief - What is the problem you intend to solve?


I intend to create a series of short animations that will entertain fans of Batman. I will use the batman symbol as a constant throughout the animations to give the project a consistency throughout.

Who needs to know?

This is aimed at the fans of Batman, people that would like something lighthearted and entertaining.

What do they need to know?

They need to know what the animations are about, what the general theme.

Why do they need to know?

They need information regarding the package in order to understand what the product is about. How it works etc.

What will they respond to?

The packaging will be interactive, even if it is a simple box set or fold out. They will then have DVDs to watch that have the animations on them. They will be responding to a visual stimulus that will be shown on a TV/computer etc.

What research is required?
Primary - I need to take pictures of batman signals, test which is best. I also need to look at DVD cases and ways of interacting with them.
Secondary - Research DVD cases, animations.

PRODUCT AND PROMOTION/ PRODUCT AND PACKAGING/ PRODUCT AND DISTRIBUTION. Why have you made this decision.

Product and promotion -> to promote the obvious signs/symbols related to Batman, this is because promotion can be used to entertain as well as inform.



Who is the audience and how do you intend to engage them?

My audience will be comic book/batman fans - this is because they are the ones that will recognise what i will do.


What is the function of the product - is it supposed to inform/ educate/ document/ entertain/ instruct? What has informed this decision?

My product will mostly be to entertain alongside it could inform but more areas need to be investigate for me to be more informed. The reason i think it will be an entertaining piece is because of the fact that Batman himself and the atmosphere surrounding it is quite entertaining, people read the comic books to entertained as well as watching the movies etc. So therefore i think my piece should do the same.


How will the audience interact with the product?

I think that it will be a movie that they can watch/interact with. Again more areas need to be investigated.
