Sponsorship Update

After watching the brief footage filmed at our sponsorship location we highlighted some problems. For the situation to be embarrassing the meal must be a first date. This isn't obvious because the scene is simply a couple eating a meal in a home; they could be a married couple for all the audience knows. Nor is it obvious that one has cooked romantically for the other. Therefore we have decided to show some brief clips of one partner preparing food, the bell ringing and the door being answered. The food preparation clips should show the character adding the tin to the food (for example a stew or bolognaise) but without the tin label being seen; this is to introduce the tin and to show it being added to the meal. We want to create the impression that the partner is nervous and very tense when preparing the meal, this way it is clearer that it is a first date rather than a married couple. We are also considering using candles or some romantic gesture to make it even more obvious that this person is trying to impress the other.

We have decided that the man should cook for the woman. This is because there is more social pressure for men to impress women; so it'd be more embarrassing for a man to embarress himself while attempting to attract a woman.
