Audience research
Separated relevance, interpretation, and participation into distinct audience roles.

Academic campaign proposal
Who is included when a brand says “one size fits all”?
I connected audience research, proposed influencer roles, and selected content scripts for a team campaign concept questioning sizing and gendered dress expectations.
This is an academic team proposal, not a commissioned or launched Brandy Melville campaign.
The team used role reversal, creator storytelling, and audience participation to turn a critique of sizing expectations into a social campaign concept. My work focused on defining who the idea should reach, what each proposed voice would contribute, and how selected content could support the strategy.
Separated relevance, interpretation, and participation into distinct audience roles.
Connected proposed talent to AIDA stages and specific communication tasks.
Helped translate strategic intent into selected content moments within the team proposal.
The proposal needed to make an abstract expectation visible without stopping at brand criticism.
The central concept reversed familiar dress expectations: men would encounter the constraints the source deck describes women facing, while later content would shift the focus toward comfort, choice, and self-expression.
The campaign question“One size fits all” - but who does “all” actually include?
The source deck calls this
Role reversal, restricted movement, and humor create the proposed attention hook.
The direction then shifts to
Comfort, agency, and personal expression give the campaign a constructive destination.
This arc describes the proposal's intended narrative, not a measured audience response.
Most likely

Give the audience a recognizable way to participate.These figures are records from the 2025 team proposal. The available material does not include a collection period, complete sample, or coding method, so the figures do not represent the current community or prove willingness to participate.
Counts show mentions out of six interviews. One participant could mention more than one theme; the source material does not include transcripts.

Explain the expectations behind the visual contrast.

Introduces the central question and anchors the proposed opening and reaction content.
An interpretive voice connecting the visual hook to fashion and cultural expectations.
A creator-led story connecting sizing, comfort, confidence, and everyday dress.

Attention / Awareness
The opening introduces the inclusion question, then makes the issue visible through a proposed role-reversal fitting challenge.
Task: move from an abstract claim to a visible contradiction.Interest
Short questions shift the audience from seeing the contrast to understanding the dress expectations behind it.
Task: explain the campaign's point of view without repeating the challenge.A 15-minute “Closet of Truth” interview and a proposed editorial article would carry the explanation into longer-form content. These formats remained concepts.
Weeks 1-2
Help audiences recognize and name gendered expectations around appearance and dress.
Weeks 3-5
Invite related posts, personal stories, and responses using the campaign prompt.
Weeks 6-8
Support continued public expression around sizing inclusion and dress expectations.
Every number above is a planning target. The source deck contains a conflict between its December 2025 cover date and its January-February calendar dates, so this case presents the sequence without publishing an unverified year.
Selected as the best project in USC CMGT-568: Influencer Strategies, Fall 2025.
My contribution clarified who the campaign should reach, what each proposed voice would contribute, and how selected content could support AIDA.
