blog 36

#36 so...the last blog
one thing you learned in the media course....that's all...only one

The one main thing I have learned from this class is when watching media products is to keep an open eye and to not take things just as I see them. I learned that I should second look everything.

#34 The Beatles or your favourite musical act and why
clearly explain your thoughts on the Beatles or why another music group/act is your favourite of all time

I cant say that I have a favorite band of all time because my tastes change so often. One of my favorite bands for the longest time though was Red Hot Chili Peppers. I loved them because they and they're sound was so much different then any other bands. They also managed to keep their distinct sound for almost 20 years.

#33 in general,....sweatshops
what's your take.....do you care? should you care? would you be willing to make do with less in order for others to have a little more?

I think it's disgusting the wages people make there. They work for basically nothing because the companies give them pretty much no choice. I would be more than willing to go without in order for others on those countries to have more.

#30 things that are tough to sell to teens
your product?why did you choose this one?what approach did you take to try to sell this to teens?

Our product was these jumps suits. We chose them because we knew that no one would actually buy them. The approach we took was advertising them as a great way to hold alot of things on you because they were so many pockets.
