1. Idea 1 – Realist narrative + pathos. There will be a boy who gets bullied because he prefers
his ‘natural scent’. One day he finds a lynx can and decides to give it a go. As soon as he
reaches school, other boys come and try make fun of him then realise that he doesn’t
stink. Just applying

2. Idea 2 – Sex appeal + logos. A couple friends decide to have a night out after a stressful
exam period. One of them decides to apply the Lynx Attract deodorant before going out.
The group of five boys come across a small group of females and start shouting ‘OiOi
Beautiful’. The small group of females are pulled towards the boy who applied the Lynx
deodorant like a magnetic pull.

4. Idea 5 – A group of people dressed in nuclear costumes come barricade the door down.
They could shout ‘Stay clear, there is a radioactive substance in this households. STAY

6. Idea 6 – This will be an animation of celebrities faces. One of them will feel self-conscious
of how they look, as other celebrities have wings. He/she is often regarded as a different
‘species’. All of a sudden, there will be a flying Lynx can with mini wings and he/she will go
after the Lynx can. Once he/she grabs hold of the deodorant and applies it, he/she will
start to feel very light. A pair of wings appear on there back and other male/female
celebrities are instantly attracted to them.
