The genre I picked was a public service announcement (PSA for short). Psa’s are short 30 second to 1:30 minute videos which tell the audience of a current issue and how then can prevent this by providing a solution. In a short video format It’s organized that the speaker first introducing themself, identifying the audience which they’re talking to, the issue which this audience is facing, and finally a possible solution. Psa’s almost always have a credible well known person or mascot speaking to the audience. Due to their short length psa’s can’t take a lot of time beating around the bush so they get straight to the point very quickly. Lastly at the end the speaker thanks the listeners for tuning it and will usually have a random one liner pertain to the situation.
