Theme??

I think I need to focus on the logo first and the theme of my promotion before I can think about the media ( need to visit museum)

I've got a few directions my ideas can go into :

  • Playing with the weird and wonderful collection in the museum. Instead of showing off the really obvious collections, use imagery of a less obvious exhibits. Make it really ambiguous to draw interests and curiosity. Could even be something freaky ( creepy crawlies, the scary fetus ei, the feeling of being in your mother's womb again ). Focus on enticing people with what the museum houses
  • Focus on the adventure side of things. - inviting people to come on a voyage into the wild/ nature/ new world. to discover things!! Can expand on that and compare the NHM to a new world/planet/ undiscovered place needing to be explored
  • or.....world to be RE-discovered

  • Celebrating nature and our planet- can use facts to shock,awe, educate and entice people. and also quotes about nature said by famous scientists. Can illustrate and use type to do this. ( but then thats not really directly related to the museum).

  • Similar to the first idea....show off what the museum has but make it more light hearted eg. ' come see our giant dinasaur..its xxx big!' ( more for kids?) points that make the museum special and unique


NB.just realising now that with this museum I am branding....there is not much competition at all.

but...

what makes the museum special and why people should visit ??

  • to learn
  • entertained
  • discover new things
  • it has a massive whale
reasons why people actually want to visit the natural history museum......

  • to see all the big stuffed animals
  • the beautiful gem stones
  • nature is fun!
  • knowledge
  • a massive stuffed whale
  • extinct animals
  • to understand the the world better
  • for the WOW factor
  • intellectual curiosity

FOR RANGE:

different sections of the museum?
different zones
different target audience


I think with the quotes one I can really have a play with words and language

Other than the quotes I can use stuff like puns,sayins, facts about the exhibitsm facts about the museum etc.
