For this activity, you are asked to create content for social media (such as Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, Twitter, etc.) that would help with educating the community on various topics. You may choose to create:
– a short video/PSA (45-60 seconds)
– IG, FB, or Youtube Reel or Short (7-15 seconds)
– an image carousel (no more than 10 impactful images, photos of figures that would rotate)
Pay attention to the language used as these are public messages that you are creating. Always think about who your target audience is when deciding what words, you are going to use.
Try not to use too many words in your image or content (don’t make it too text-heavy).
Think about font color and font type in relation to the background that you have chosen
Sometimes zoom and panning effects are not needed as they distract from the underlying message that you are trying to convey to your audience.
The official NJ Poison Center release/advisory should be used in your submissions and presented in your own words ideally and not copied word for word.
The NJ poison center information, phone number, and logo need to be included, and no other national poison center information.
Ensure that the information is related to the poison center and comes from our content and not something unrelated.
