1.) DFizzy's WTF BBQ Sauce






I like this advertisement because it's not real and it's funny.


2.) Ad!


Beer - during action shows, or on TV stations like men TV.

Cars - during any TV show that isn't for young children

Toys -during cartoons

Jeans -teen shows, MTV station

Shampoo - any show


3.) Me


If i was going to be in a advertisement i would probably be selling clothes or something.


4.) Surrounding Me


If i look around me at all the advertisements that are in this room there are none. The only thing i have open is my blog and carterspace so there is no ads, lucky for me. That was an easy post :D
5.) Alien's!
I an alien had to sit and watch a evening's worth of TV he would think the human race spends usefull amounts of money on useless stuff. Like pointless toys like the boomoring, or floam, or useless computer pets like tamagotchies, and cube worlds, or $40 music speakers that are shaped like animal's that you can barely hear the music your listening to, like the I-Dog. People waste money on crap, we could use that money for something usefull like food and homes. The world is only going bankrupt. That alien would probably like to smack some sence into are people.

Gender portrayal guidelines

  1. Both genders are portrayed equally.
  2. No, it is shown that the man buys jewlery for the woman
  3. No, both genders are not being exploited.
  4. Their is slight domination in this ad because the man seem's to own the woman because of the way he is holding her.
  5. This ad effective because there was no explotation.

http://www.adflip.com/addetails.php?adID=14058&showLargeJpg=yes

  1. No the woman in this ad is being refered to an item not a person
  2. No in this ad it is refering that men are the only buyers
  3. Yes there is exploitation in this ad, because the woman is being displayed as an object
  4. The man is shown as the dominant one
  5. I find this ad offensiven because woman are being compared to gum
  6. I would change the ad and make it more about the gum then the woman.

Media and Gender


Dismemberment or objectification: In this ad for sony mp3 players they have a picture of the side of a mans face showing his ear. On his ear is a tiny elvis presley, which is suppose to be the head phones.


http://www.blogcdn.com/www.engadget.com/media/2008/11/sony-ericsson_fhm.jpg

Irrelevant Sexualization of Women and Girls and Dismemberment or objectification: In this ad there is a half naked woman holding a camera phone. Only half the womans body is there.

Superiority and Domination: In this ad there is a woman in the middle of a dart board, the man is in control because he has to throw a knife. The ad say's "Better be accurate", This ad is for an ascensia meter.

Topics for promotional video

First of all, what will be your focus area? Is it high school? Middle school? Elementary?
~I'd like to focus on elementry.

What elements would you include in your video? Would it include testimonials, images, video footage? Or a mixture of them all?
~images and video's testimonials wouldn't be easy to do because not many elementry kids will feel comfortable being interveiwed by high school kids.

What do you want to cover? Do you want to cover some of the new courses? Do you want to cover some of the extra curricular activities? What else?
~i'd like to show what they do on a typical school day, and what there classes are like.

Would you model your video off the video you selected yesterday? If so, what aspects of that video would you like to use? If not, explain why not.
~No because that video was about collage and collage and elementry are totally different.

Fat Cat

I didn't know anything about FatKat Animation but now i know:

  • its located in Mirimichi, New Brunswick
  • It's owned and operated by Gene Fowler
  • worked on Tv shows such as Happy Tree Friends, Family Guy, and Odd Job
    Jack.
  • it is the largest animation studio in Atlantic Canada
  • is currently the fastest growing animation studio in Canada.

I liked the layout of the FatKat blog, it was creative and cool.

I didn't like that there wasn't alot of information just video's

When Robbie Anderson comes over i would like to tell him how much i love family guy!!!
