Using the choice of the same uniform, in the idea of the unity of the clubs, with the contrast of ethinic diversity through the use of different hairstyle and skin colour, holding the paddling in a cheering position to signify victory. Also being very sensitive to current times of corona, majority of individuals would be wearing masks, as to governement’s advice.

In Facebook, Instagram, TIK TOK, Youtube, WeChat, WEIBO etc. agorithms video is King. The reach that a Video has compared to a still photo is always further reaching. It is inevitable that all kinds of marketing would some how end up in some form of moving image. As attention span of individuals nowadays are getting tighter and tighter, it is cruicial to obtain the viewers attention within the first 5 seconds of the content being viewed, in order to create a long lasting impactful result. I (Zijing Chu) is currently trying out this method, and is being released as this proposal is written. Essentially this content (series) of videos are to display the diversity of our members, by interviewing them in their own respective mother tongue. This 10 part series would keep conversations within the club going as well as create a sense of belonging within the community.
