Commercial #3 Radio Shack Mania





a) This commercial appeals to everyone in the family from the parents remembering everyone and everything that shows up in here to the kids in the family who are all gadget based.



b) They use emotion by bring older audiences back to the good old days, comedy with the ghosts, hulk Radiohogan and even a little scary parts with jason and chucky (cover your little kids eyes).



c)"It's Time For A New Radio shack" stands out to people by saying, hey we just upgraded and rolling with modern times. We are up to date, cool and ready for tomorrow!



d) I feel it being beneficial because it allows a new place for people to go for their modern day needs in technology. i mean that's what drives us everyday right?



e)I find it not to be as manipulative but i would have to go with a 7. Maybe if they showed bigger stores such as Best Buy then more people will go there more, but may i say seeing all those 80's icons did boost them waaayyy more.



f)This commercial reveals that as a society we forgot about the past toys and we want what's new and fresh. We need to be glued in front of screens to live on!

Commercial #2 Oikos Greek Yogurt Full House





a) I feel this commercial appeals to many such as old Full House goers, people who found John Stamos attractive, and people who are trying to eat right that tastes good. All in all, it goes to an older audience.



b) They use ethos by having a Full House "Reunion", a HUGE sex appeal technique that was pretty funny and humor to top things off



c) "Feel Your Pleasure" is used as a sex approach as being with an attractive women gives John pleasure and anyone else. What that are saying that you will enjoy their nonfat yogurt.



d) This commercial could be harmful for families because the sex appeal reference is not right for young audiences to watch.



e) i would give this commercial a 7 on manipulative. Who doesn't want that to happen to them, in all seriousness, with such humor, ethos and ___, who wouldn't want to go buy this product.



f) As a society we like anything that can "pleasure" us. Sex is what is often portrayed in commercials now a days so why not reference it up the wazoo.

"No Mas Pantalones" Week 1 Commercial



1) This commercial is mean't to appeal to licensed drivers that are in need of car insurance and for customers of former companies that have wronged them.

2) Dishonesty and Manipulation of the other insurance companies showed how Progressive is there to help people. Also, their services of helping you find a great deal even if it isn't with them wins people over (generosity).

3) "No Mas Pantalones" was said by an insurance representatives when he lied to a potential customer and his pants caught on fire. This shows their dishonesty ways of winning you over. Just like the old saying, "Liar, Liar Pants on Fire."

4) This commercial is beneficial to society since it guides you to be safe on the rode and from potential bad deals.

5)This commercial i have to give a 9 on how manipulative they are. Their use of "honesty" and helpfulness is a steal for anyone who needs insurance.

6)This commercial reveals how today's society gets cheated out to the point it get's in the way of "being protected on the road."

DreamsDreamsDreams

Last night i had a dream so real that i felt i was actually in it. I was around 10 again, and i rushed outside to play some ball with my friends. We would play in this grassy area behind a laundry matt. We called this Trailer Trash Ball at the
Brown Monster. 
The Brown 
Monster was a huge wall that was in between you a a game winning homer.
 All my friends that i grew up with were here and ready to give our all to win. My team, The Angels 2.0 won, and we were off to the playoffs :)

Color Me!!!

 In this post, I decided to travel back in time and do what I did best...COLOR!!!!It was fun coloring a color book once more! I picked up a random book from a dollar store and found some colored pencils. It was cool because I found a picture of a super hero flying in the air. When I was little, I was crazy about heroes that I even wanted to become one myself. Then I found a cool cat with a red ball and backwards hat. It was funny looking at all the random pictures that a child could pick to make it look unique. Then on top of that you got the endless amount of colors you can use and no one can tell you no don’t color that boy green or the sky isn't purple; you are the one in control. With that, this was nostalgic and I hope coloring is still a big thing in children’s lives.

The Munsters

I saw that we could watch an old show like Bewitched or I Love Lucy! i found an old show around the same time period called The Munsters. This show is a about a monster family of 4 and their darling niece who face whacky family situations with a monastery twist. they consist of a Frankenstein  father, his "bride" the count grandpa, their wolf man son, and their human niece that lives with them. In their minds, they are normal and think of the rest of the world as them. The funny thing is that everyone see's them as monster, everyone except their niece. In their minds, they are normal. I got much laughs from this old black and white show. Imagine it as a Halloween themed family sitcom with its own spooky humor. I spent watching half of their 1st season and i recommend this to those of fans of sitcoms and Universal Studios Monsters.

Long Live

Can you imagine one of your favorite bands breaking up? It's horrible to think but it happens. I was lucky to go see the farewell tour of The Chariot in my hometown Anaheim California. It was at Chain Reaction which is known for being small and great for some crazy shows. All i coukd say was wow!!! It was a sad but great show!!! They teared up the stage, , i got to see them one last time, and i got to see some cool bands. A band i like alot called GlassCloud played as well. Ot was great seeing the acts up close and being part of a crazy audience. Good friends, active crowd, amazing performancws, meet and greats, just a full on good time. At the show i got hit in the face, ribs, everywhere multiple times and i have a sore body afterwards, but man was it worth it!!! :) Long Live The Chariot
