Voice Overs

Voice Over for Documentary

We look at shoes for men, women boys and girls, delving into the history and the new technologies. This is your views on shoes. The best high street shoe shop tells us the benefits of their shoes. Shoes are becoming a new drug, the buzz of choosing, buying and wearing them is getting people addicted, Sadie tells all-Shops are starting to create styles of shoes to help maximise comfort. Goverment cracking down on obesity has developed the new exercise shoes, making exercise part of everyday life. We speak to AM asia barefoot technollogy wearer and the health benefits it has given him.

Voice Over for Radio Advert:
Shoes, are they the new drug of choice?
Is wearing the hottest new pair of designer heels addictive? (an addiction?)
What is it exactly that hooks us in the shoe depertament?
Is it comfort, fashion or just basic necessity?

Take a walk in our shoes.

Where did they originate?

Where are they going?

Men, women, boys and girls, we all wear them?
