- Design
- Technological tools to use
Basic Design Considerations
- Strong and catchy headline
- Relevant body
- Coherent graphics
- Right layout
- A call for action
Aim for short phrases that grab attention in just a glance. If a verbal headline is not needed in the case of video promotional texts, then a strong image is employed.
Strong and catchy headline
If details are needed, opt for brief lines that build up and relay the intended message and its purpose
Relevant body
All images, including the sound effects, must be related to the message and purpose of the text
Coherent graphics
If the multimodal text is on print, find your focus and create balance and contrast by using the white spaces (empty spaces that add emphasis to the headline or graphics)
Right layout
At times, a separate command on what the viewers must do is added, along with contact particulars, which are usually found at the bottom or end of the text.
A call for action
a brief message broadcast on radio or television and posted on social networking sites for the public interest
Public Service Announcement
