One thing that you should review for the exam is how advertisements create an EMOTIONAL APPEAL. (Pg 77-79). Be prepared to analyse an ad based on the MODELS, the SETTING, the DETAILS, the STORY, the COPY, the POINT OF VIEW and the COLOUR. If the advertisement was a television commercial, you would want to discuss these elements by discussing camera angles, colour, actors used, lighting, etc. During exam review this week, we will be deconstructing this advertisement. Please get some ideas ready so we can brainstorm together.

About Me
Who is mzqbit?
My name is mzqbit and welcome to my media blog. When I am not being a teacher, I try to be as human as possible, and I do this in several different ways. First of all, I wasn’t always a teacher …
When I was in high school things were more or less the same as they are now except that I had an extra year with OAC. Music was a very important part of my identity. My favourite bands in high school were REM, The Cranberries, Live, The Tragically Hip, Moist, Nirvana, Green Day, Counting Crows, The Smashing Pumpkins and Weezer. I loved to listen to Sarah McLauchlin and Radiohead whenever I was feeling weepy and emotional, and Nine Inch Nails if I was angry with my parents.
As for computers, I remember getting the Internet when I was in OAC. I thought it was amazing that you could talk to people in other countries. My school didn’t have Internet - we really did have to look things up in BOOKS. There was no “googling” and I only remember handing in one or two major assignments typed up on the computer. I never used the Internet for research (no wikipedia either - we had to use real encyclopedias!) and there was no such thing as a blog, or an iPod! Also, teenagers didn't have cell phones. In that respect, high school was quite different for me!
I hope you enjoy the class. My advice is to keep your mind, eyes and ears open. We will look at a lot of topics, since the media touches our lives in so many different ways. My goal is to make you question what you see in the media, look beyond the surface and arrive at your own conclusions. Good luck and have fun!
