The narrative structure of the video is nonlinear, with points that could be made in any order. Text prompts on screen convey information rather than dialogue for a fast pace. Brightly colored costumes from the 1970s set a positive tone for overcoming low workplace confidence. A basic piano riff in the background matches simple but effective visuals keeping the 1970s theme. Fast editing with cuts and graphics help speed the narrative without becoming slow or boring. High key lighting emphasizes bold colors to match the upbeat graphics and sound. Moving text and visuals across the screen create a motion effect and story. Both male and female graphic characters promote relatability without stereotypes. The target audience are workers suffering from confidence issues. The purpose is to inform them
