Monster Munch_Final



This is the finish one after I add on gradient black filter. It look much more better with the tone.

Monster Munch_test



I test with the opening scene first and I think it's look a bit dull, not have a dark and monster feeling. So I want to add a gradient black filter that I like to use to make it more dark tone.

Storyboard for Monster Munch

Idea and Concept


This is some creative challenge from the brief.
My idea and concept is I want to create a short Motion Graphics promote
monster Munch by using a retro theme as original advert to follow there concept that they bring back the original size of crisps and monster to let the audience remember again. As you can see there is no more advert for monster munch recently, so I want to bring them back to promote again as the original style.
Visual style and concept base on Monster Munch history also visual graphics in official website as my work can be show up in there website.


Visual Style
Monster Munch Advert - 1986



The original advert that shown in 1986.
This give me an inspiration with there mood and tone really represent monster but mix with some gag the entertain people.

Case Study



Smiths Crisps Monster Munch 'dream' 1977 UK advert
They playing with the characters. They use a tree to represent flavours snack. The pink monster can eat all the crisps because he is the tallest but at the end it's just his dreaming. So other monster enjoy the real snack while he is still sleeping.
The concept is biggest snack pennies can buy, this show that they really produced a big pack of snack that worth for money to buy it.





1994 Advert for Monster Munch with free transfer & Computer game offer
A promoting advert to let everyone collect the colorful transfers or a fantastic computer game.

The idea is simple and easy to understand which is a good way to promote there product and promotion offer.

Target Audience




Students aged 18-24
Life style of college and working part time, sport, drinking, clubbing, sleeping. They tend to snack rather than eat regular meals.

Quotes from target audiences
"Finally found some roast beef flavour in WHSmith, B'ham New St station. They were on a special promotion stand with 'bigger like they used to be' at the top. 75p a bag though which is a complete rip off!"
"The packaging is fantastic, the monster munch are indeed bigger but not quite as big as I'd hoped."
"I can't believe it beef monster munch back on sale big bag too. I felt like a kid in a toy shop."

Flavours





Flaming Hot
Roast Beef
Pickled Onion
Retro pack design featuring ever-popular Monster characters. Old design, back to the bigger bag with bigger crisps. In each flavours they use a different character to make the different identity. The Monster is big as an icon that show simple but attractive colors and style, stand out and easy to remember and appeal to the consumer.
