“贵耻迟耻谤别�
60杝econd Television Spot
| VISUALS: | A father in his mid-30s returns home from work feeling very tired. When he steps into his house, he sees his two children (aged ten and seven years) playing video games in the living room. At that point, he feels very proud and happy that he has provided a comfortable environment for his children. But when he glances through a picture of himself and his parents taken during his graduation, it triggers his memory of the old days, and then we see a flash-back of him. When he was a young child, his parents always took him out to play and supported him in all kinds of physical activities. All these activities helped him to become a healthy and well朾alanced person. We then we see him back in today抯 life. He decides that he shouldn抰 give himself any more excuses and should be like his parents in helping his children to step into a brighter future. He takes out his baseball gloves and together with his wife, takes the children out to play. The voice-over reminds the audience that physical activities can help children do better in school, boost their confidence, and help develop both their body and mind. The spot ends with a call to action telling parents and adults that they need to encourage children to have 60 minutes of physical activity every day, as the words 揤ERB � A Campaign To Build Healthy Children� appear on the screen. |
