Poster 03 - Idea Selections

Of the ideas and roughts completed earlier, the "Cordially invited" letter and the "Post-It Note on Door" are the two that lend themselves to identification of the concept. More importantly, they lend themselves to being completable in a shorter amount of time.

To complete these (one, not both), I’ll need to compile copy and ideas for imagery. The "post-it note" would not be  too difficulty, as there are a plethora of doors available in town in which this can be done. It can even be done guerilla style. The "cordially invited" would require creating the actual invitation and then photographing it as needed.

Of the two, "cordially invited" appears to be the more convincing of the two, and can be easily supplimented with additional headline and copy.

Copy ideas:

Invitation:

You are cordially invited to burglarize the (last name’s) flat, located at (some addresS) on (some date) between (some time) and (some time).
RSVP is not necessary.

Headline:

An Unlocked Door is an Invitation to Victimization

Body Copy:

Keeping your doors locked is the best burglary prevention method. Safe Partnership is committed to helping the eldery and vulnerable from being victimized. Our goal is to care for the victims and reduce the fear of crime.
