Episode description

• This "SUGAR SITUATION" spot is a perfect example of the Problem-Solution-Satisfaction formula. Instead of emphasizing the repeated word "sugar," emphasize the words that FLANK the repeated word. Using the comedic rule of 3 to BUILD that opening beat in its 3 pieces WITHOUT pausing after "that means..." • "But it's not sugar" is a SECRET that you are letting us in on. And it's a GOOD THING, too. • Use INTERNAL THOUGHT, thinking out loud . . . let us HEAR you come up with a clever way to say something. A line like "It's a win-win and a yum-yum" only works if it's delivered in a way that sounds like YOU THOUGHT IT, not you read it off a flat page. • Instead of emphasizing the word AND, which is SELLY . . . find the important words, and emphasize those instead, and the big selly AND will go away on its own. VO:Ah, breakfast. That means sugar in the coffee, in the cereal, and the grapefruit. The day has just begun, and already you have . . . a Sugar Situation. The sweeter solution: Splenda No-Calorie Sweetener. Made from sugar, tastes like sugar, but it’s not sugar. And with no calories, it’s a win-win, and a yum-yum. What a way to start the day. Splenda. Imagine life sweeter.
