assignment 2 idea
My idea for the next assignment is to use pictures of products found in advertising during a 30 minute children's show. In just a short half of an hour time frame it seems that kids spend just as much time seeing commercials for products that are advertised in a way that make the kid desperate to have them, as they do watching the actual program. So, I thought I would jot down what each commercial in that half hour is for and then find images on the web pertaining to that commercial and combine them into one larger image. I feel like a visual representation of what kids are watching and buying into will be more powerful than numbers that describe it.

Hi Summer, I am intrigued by your project idea. It is true that the media instills a lack within us while offering an endless stream of products that promise to bring us joy. It is sad that this starts when we are children.
ReplyDeleteI bet there is product placement within the actual shows as well...
