Answers to the 6 questions about the movie

1.  i think this is a bit of both a  documentary and a mockumentary because it documents the history of all that is presented but also somewhat mocks MBW and his work.
2. i think that the artists are trying to portray what life is really like and that freedom and peace dont quite exist yet, i think they are affective as it has become very very popular.
3.i have no clue what his point was, MBWs art to me looks like the french man was high on acid, but i think i might of got his point across, he sold alot, but thay might of been hype, his slogan life is beautiful though suggest that what around is beautiful as it is.
4.  Street Artist VS. MBW, Street artists actually did their own work MBW though paid everybody to do his, plus most street art has meaning MBW's doesnt really seem to have any
5.why the long line, well i think it was just hype two very good artist endorsed it.
6.   well i think its art, just illeagal art, its a pain to clean up, but if there were places for it to be done were it was legal i see no problem with it its a form of expression, as for the other two i feel they achieved success because they had made they art known, and wanted yet Banksys still does graffiti and still hide from the law

what i learned about business in physics class

physics/ business
acceleration= force over mass, big brand = more force to change its positioning
impossible to predict where something will be going, observing consumers changes behaviors
cannot prove a guess by observation, only disprove, one little accident, disproves
a measure of disorder, will always increase strong brand  promote it then loose control it, and distrabutes the energy more widely, chaos = distrabution

I feel that food would be the best seller the school store inventory.
I feel this because they are cheap edibles that most people wouldn't think to bring
These items are also the most prevelent most kids do not want to buy school items
Because if they want supplies for class they bring it, and clothing is expensive and not in demand

  • "If goods were sold only for cash, prices would be lower and everyone would be better off." no because some people wouldn't be able to live and i don't know y prices would be lower  

  • "If I can't pay for something, it means I can't afford it, so I won't buy it."  Yes because this is a good way to avoid debt and only get what you need.

  • "I buy on credit whenever I can because credit increases sales and is good for businesses." No because people get into debt because they dont have the money to pay for it and never do 

  • "You should use credit sometimes: it helps you establish a credit rating, which may be useful in case of an emergency." yes because they are right you do need a good credit rating

    product in decline

    CDs are likely a dying product because of mp3s and computers are are taking over the music business because popular demand has made them oppsolete. is say producers of cds might want to produce less of them cause their likely not going to sell many of them, pretty much only ppl with full stereos would still use them.
    hmm i cant think of anything more to say.

    PYP

    while working with PYP i liked that it was simple, and fairly straight forward as to how to change backgrounds, layouts and thins related to it, i find that adding a picture was a bit tricky and for lack of words a pain in the a** other things i find problematic with it is how the software was somewhat problematic as some people couldnt do the things previously listed, id like if there was more pages to do this on and maybe a personalized back grounds and the changing other format could be better, unfortunately i feel that the appeal simple isnt there most people like me would have just made a scrape book instead.

    Guerilla Marketing

    Personally i liked Volkswagons red slide campaign, i like it simply because it could be very very effective, the idea of setting a slide up on a stair case to prove the fact that living in the fast lane is always more fun while simutainously saying that their car in a fast vehicle and fun to drive, i also like this campain cause as much as it wont garentee larger sales though it probably would, it also does good by just making ppl smile.

    Customer service

    the story basically states that if you have good customer service, ie making a cab ride as pleasent as possible on a hot day at no extra charge. you will possibly gain customer loyalty because the customer had a good experince and will want to come back, the luxeries is what makes the experince better, thus you can go futher as to send cards for example to maintain customer loyalty showing your appretiation for them shopping with you and this further more invites them back.

    group working

    in our group the things that are working good is that the group members see eye to eye and we dont really have disagreements, our group needs to work a little harder to get assignments in on time, we could do this by not being so easily distracted. We have a missing person who we are unaware as to their whereabouts but other then that and things previously mentioned their is nothing that i can think of that needs to be mentioned.

    reputation

    a business' reputation could come from bad results and quality of their product and the reviews of customers. This might not always be the business' fault customer reviews might not be truthful. but in most cases it is because of the bad quality service and/or product that people are not impressed with and recomend against their friends and family using them. a company could improve their reputation by making their product to a higher quality or improving the service.

    so far this is cool. the idea of saving energy by changing windows, and making a different type on light, by doing every thing differently, while he is up there he isn't trying to sell product but his idea by killing the ideas we already have. i find it admirable that the reason he did it was because of a photo in a newspaper about a girl dying from thirst. that that is his reason for perserving the earth.

    ethics and morals

    anything made in sweatshops could be considered unethical because of the amount of poverty the workers live in. morally depending on the person anything that goes against their view would be unmorally clean and be considered wrong IE, drugs, because they are illegal. personally i can not think of any right now.

    Advertising

    I think of advertising is the way a company  promotes their product and tries to convince  people  to buy it by promoting an idea and and image to the viewers, and put the idea that the product makes you something you aspires to be.  Much like the video games did in yesterdays video.

    Goods ads are  are  those that are good a presenting an idea, ex. bud lights beer commercial with the party roof top

    Bad ads are like the hotel planners  ads the look home made and possibly a rip of ex. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jOcvNV-xR90

    Goals

    1: Achieving our business goal is important  because it means we succeeded and in the case meaning we have managed to help others less fortunate then ourselves.
    2:  not really the way we have it set as of right now its just and idea in our heads we have not made it energizing or inspiring in any way
    3: our goal will look like its been achieved at the conclusion of a F.L.H.S talent show being put on with people participating and showing up to the event with all dues paid.

    women in the work force

    i think that most of her facts are true but i think that they are extremely bias. i think that she is right but maybe not focusing on all the right areas. i dont think that shes maybe considered that some women might not want to reach the top or that some only want to be at home with kids. as for if there was more in the workforce i dont know how it would change because  i might not at all or it might completely depending on the outlooks of these women.

    Q1. I think that we will do our book keeping on a weekly basis rather then on a monthly simply to reduce the amount of errors and amount of stuff needing to be enter in. i think we could use a template or software but i personally would prefer a paper ledger.

    Q2. im waiting for my survey results to return before we can run a projection.

    Speaking

    Think that speakers will change theirs tone depending on a situation. for example Dr. king spoke in a loud clear voice with a lot of power because it was something he believed in it and wanted the world to hear what his dream was. if they are trying to persuade they might drop there tone down quiet for some customer and louder for others depending on the nature they observe displayed by the customer.
