Nicole Stanford, from section 3 for Full Sail University's English Composition class in March 2014, came up with an Audio PSA for her Final Project.

In this audio PSA about why video game developers should take the time to give proper resources to a game that had a female protagonist, we hear the perspective of an unused video game character named Penelope Larson. Here, she gives video game publishing companies a speech about why it would benefit them to include her, or female characters like her, inside one of their highly marketed video games. Not only does she request that, but she also adds that their female-lead video game should be given just as many resources and as much money should be invested into the game, as their video games that have male protagonists.
