Reflection Media

I have never notice before how much media I have consumed in the past. But now that I think of it, I do consume a lot of media. I don't watch television that much but I receive media in different ways. For example, commercials on television, the movie theaters, the billboards, ads, and magazines are forms of media. Media has impact my life, especially my surroundings. I notice that the people around are so influence bu the media in the way they act and dress. Sometimes I think to myself how has media gone so far by doing this to people just to sell their products

All of the media has made me think more. Especially after taking Critical Thinking Class it has open my mind. Now that I see commercials I am aware of the the techniques and needs that they use. It reminds me that before  I had the class, I was able to watch commercials without criticizing the techniques. I wasn't aware the ways that marketers approached to us. Now I can't see even one commercial without saying the technique or the need they used. Thank you Mr. Starace! Ahaha. But I think that is good that I stop and think about what I'm watching and what they attend to do. 

In my opinion I think that it is important to be aware of the media. When people are aware then they will think twice of their actions. It has really open my mind to think in different ways. By kjeeping this blog i have notice that I have been getting better in detecting what techniques they used. also now i could apply it to the videos we say in Critical Thinking like, Missrespresentation, Merchants of Cool, and The Persuaders. Thank you Mr. Starace for teaching us about medias.
