Young adults aged 20 to 30 

An interest in good food, the way that restaurants are making their food and getting their produce. Interested in helping the environment and have a passion for sustainable food and living. 

The Tea Tree Gully area and surrounding local areas such as Modbury Heights 

·  Which platforms (including social media platforms) are members of my (potential) audience using? 

They would be using Instagram and Facebook as that is Topiary’s main source of advertisement. Instagram is full of “foodie” accounts, people who go out to different cafes and restaurants to advertise and review their food. They grew up using Instagram and taking photos of their food to upload and to see what different cafes look like, what the vibe of the pace is and most importantly what their food looks like. 

At least a few hours a day if not more. Scrolling through reels, looking at people’s profiles, and looking up and viewing the profiles of cafes that their friends have told them about or they have seen on their discovery page.  

·     How often do members of my (potential) audience
use the platforms, e.g., daily? Every few days? Weekly? 

Daily. It's something they check in the morning when they wake up, it's something they go on during the day when they are bored. 

·     What kinds of content do they enjoy consuming,
e.g., videos, essays, memes, GIFs? 

Videos through the 'reels' feature that Instagram has introduced in recent years, as well as photos posted by their friends, favourite brands or ads and recommended
content. 

·     How can your content enrich the life of your
(potential) audience members? ‘Enrich
the life’ can range from improving their health and fitness to entertaining them, to simply giving consumers some light ‘lulz’ during their working day. 

Entertainment and information. People in this age group love brunch and cute ‘Instagram-able’ places. My content gives them information about a new local business that is beautiful both in its location and food. Providing them with a source of entertainment to watch and then go to and try themselves as well as providing information on the business and its ethos. 

The point of difference is getting them to connect with the business itself. With the ethos and idea behind its making. The beautiful people that run the place and work there. And the sense of community and family that is interlaced throughout the entire operation. 

Fast-paced, lots of colours, music that captures that audience’s attention 

Words that flash across the screen, promoting the message/point it wants to get across

Persuading the audience to ‘discover’ tasting Australia by booking tickets 

Includes their website at the end – I like that 
The music builds up anticipation 
The heading "what does freshly caught taste like" entices the audience to book tickets. Makes them wonder what it actually tastes like, keeping them interested
Cooks smiling later on in the video highlighting the atmosphere 
The quick flash of one frame to another within the editing style 

The camera angles and shots of the food vs the real-world shots 

More of an informative video rather than an ad – focuses on more of an interview style rather than advertisement or promotional approach 

This source allowed me to get a better understanding of the current situation we face around food and its consumption. It also allowed me to refine further my message for my video around sourcing locally and why it's important.

2. This source conveyed that small businesses provide services to local customers, however, it stated that they do not intend to grow or innovate in any fundamental way and usually provide an existing service. 

This source allowed me to find my next source. It helped me confirm that small businesses do have a local clientele ‘locals’ who come to their store regularly to buy their products or use their services. However, it left me questioning the fact most small businesses aren’t unique. For my promotional video, I want to highlight the uniqueness of my chosen local business and highlight that not all small businesses are the same. Which I believe will draw in my targeted audience.

3. This source emphasizes that local food is considered to have more nutritional value and that small-scale and family farms are more likely to follow sustainable practices. It also showed that the cost and accessibility were reasons why people find it hard to eat locally The idea that local food is more nutritious and farmed sustainably is something I want to show through the food within my promotional video. I also want to highlight that good local food isn’t too hard to find and while it may be a bit more expensive it's worth it. I think that will play a significant role when reaching my target audience. To persuade them that the extra expense is worth it.

Additional Research:
1. This source highlights the effects of covid-19 caused to local and small businesses. It contradicted the second source stating that since small businesses have competition with larger corporate businesses it forces the small business to create new ideas equalling unique products or services. It also suggested that by supporting local you cycle money back into your local community and small business make more local purchases from suppliers, which helps reduce carbon footprint. This proved my suspicion that small business need to biggest support as they are usually the ones who are more sustainable and community-friendly. This is a major part of the message I want to convey within my promotional video, supporting local businesses not only supports them but also supports you, the community and other local businesses.

2. This review stated that Topairy (my chosen restaurant) has "postcard-worthy" surroundings and that the beauty of the scenery is carried into the food. It says each meal is a colourful celebration of local produce with locally sourced drinks, wines or fresh squeezed juices to go with the food.

I wanted to look at a review for the restaurant as I wanted to gain a better insight as to what people loved about it. This allowed me to get a better sense of what I want and maybe need to include in my video, what attracts my target audience to this location and what makes them want to come back or tell their friends.
