Blog #5 Beauty Blogger, Mayhem Commercial

I chose the Beauty Blogger commercial from mayhem, well since it is a blog. There he sits, in front of mirror curling his hair for a mermaid how to. Commenting on how he will get a ton of likes and a ton of thumbs down emojies, referring to the social media audiance. Putting the curling iron down on the towel in front of him it catches fire. Now he makes his exit after stating that with out the correct covrage of insurance you will be left with a mess and thats the "Mayhem" moto, "Be better protected from Mayhem, like me" He puts on the girls glasses and walks out leaving the towel on fire. I believe that American culture has become a watch and see what happens, probaby due to social media. These Mayhem commercials strike us as funny mostly becuase of the way the actor portrays the accidents. We laugh at the context of the siutation, as we gasp or react the incident that occurs. We as the audience are being targetted to influence us that simple accidents can lead to major destruction. This video clip is a diplay of a fire starting from a neglectd curling iron, which is one of the top reasons for a house fire. A warning is the main idea of the video and should influnce the viewer to be aware of dangerous common and everyday appliances.

  1. i know curling irons could cause a fire but I never knew it was a top reason but it makes sense because its in so many house holds.

  2. I think you have the theme and expressed information the advertiser uses in the video but what can you tell me about the meaning of the video and what was the purpose of this advertisement? Was it to persuade, inform or entertain its audience and why? you have done really well so far keep up the good work.

Blog post #8 Why are pink diamonds pink?

http://www.diamondbuyers.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/06/Diamond-Buyers-Blog-Pink-Diamond-Facts.png   Have you ever thought why pink diamonds are pink? Or why any diamond has a color? Not so long ago the only diamonds anyone really cared about were white. As we see now though, the other colors have became more popular too, like yellow and brown or blue. Mostly women began to wear the diamonds in mixes of colors and a variety of designs, but the demand for rare pink diamonds increased, making it more valuable.    The rare pink diamonds come from the Argyle Mines, in northern Australia, only a few are produced each year. Studies on the pink diamond have shown no real results on why the diamonds are pink. One idea or theory is there was an incredible cataclysmic event, of two continents coming together and pulling apart again, leaving a volcanic scar on the land, and this is where the pink diamond and other diamonds come from in Australia. Geologist have dated this area and m...

Blog post #9 Healthy Hearts

  https://www.cdc.gov/chronicdisease/images/factsheets/nutrition/nutritional-heart.jpg?_=55985   Did you know you can have a healthy heart and still be at risk for heart disease? That's correct, your age and diet can affect how your hearts health continues as you age. Young people who consume diets of heavily processed food for years become the group with a high risk for heart disease and stroke due to high blood pressure and high cholesterol. As of now the CDC recommends a calorie intake of less than 2,300 mg a day. Unfortunately most Americans take in 3,400 mg a day, that is way too much! Good news though, you can lower your risk by eating foods with less sodium and saturated fats. Eat more food that is higher in fiber and try working out 3 to 4 days a week, or at least walking daily.   Eating better is proven to stop the onset of type 2 diabetes, many people who are overweight and obese suffer from this or at least pre-diabetes.  So it really is up to us as adults...

Blog post #7: The film "Fresh"

 What will it be today?             https://wallsdesk.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Fast-Food-for-desktop-background.jpg       The movie "Fresh" is about our industrialized food production in its current state, and how it has become all about profit and shortcuts instead of healthy and naturally grown animals and food. It also introduces new thinking, by people who trying to make changes to how we grow, buy and consume our food. This film is a must see for anyone who is interested in gaining knowledge about the production of our main meat, poultry and dairy suppliers. It shows the true side of how animals are grown and what conditions they are forced to live in until their short lives are ended, and they are sent off to become boxed, fast food meals, or grocery store items and animal foods. Yes meat and animal by-product is remade into food for animals that are not intended to eat other animals. Now I believe you will want to see this f...
