AHA!

1. First AHA moment happened when I read that "Media" is the plural for "Medium" haha! Kind of a OH moment as well, then a good "shoulda had a V8" slap to the head when I realized I should have realized that sooner haha!

2. Second AHA moment happened when we watched the movie "This film is not yet rated". I had never noticed that, although we rely on the film rating system, we don't quiet know who we are relying on to tell us what is right and what is wrong. This completely changed my view of the rating system and I now have a lot of watching to catch up on lol.

3. Final, and third AHA moment came when I watched Matt's presentation. I had never noticed how much violence I had watched as a kid when I watched Looney Toons and Disney, and how much it changed all my attitudes! I know can refelct and see where a lot of what I do by nature, actually came from the influence of early television viewing.

PR campaign

Here is my idea for a commercial that advises positive choices:

The camera pans out to a group of kids, gathered around a table and sitting in chairs. One kid opens the door to the room they are in and says "whats going on guys?" the smile on his face slowly disappearing as he enters and joins the group. "Sandra is dead" one kid of choice gender mutters from the group, while the others sulk and cry. "How....how did it happen?" as the kid sits down and joins the sulking. "Drunk driving, she was under the influence......again" the same choice gender kid mutters. As the camera falls to the center of the table and circles around, giving each individual face time as they now show themselves as they really are, young adults, each saying generic "sorry" messages like, "it was just one beer", " I never thought it could happen to her", "she said she was fine". All this ends to the last person, the person who came last saying "ignorance is for children, and drunk driving isn't an accident, its a choice. So speak, and let a friend know it time to stop, before its time to say goodbye." Im not sure if this is the kind of thing we were expected to do for this blog but yeah, i think i got the most of it!
