I think that product placement is an excellent way to get product noticed. It is more of a subliminal advertisement, and sometimes that is nicer than shoving something under a consumer's nose. It is not as obnoxious as the infomercials with the ridiculous black and white introductions. But as the clip was showing, there are some instances on when product placement can get a bit ridiculous. They were mainly doing a parody of when the product placement advertisements may not be as subliminal as, say, a character drinking a Pepsi or a Coca-Cola in a scene. Uhm... I'm not sure what else to say on the subject, mainly because I'm too stressed out from stupid prom planning. I'm sure I have more to say, but I just need some ideas from other people, so I'm guessing that the discussion in class is going to be a lot better than this blog. I'm sorry I suck at remembering blogs and being serious.

blog five. ...oops. haha.

Basically, the blogs used in today's society use a lot of sex appeal. Generally this is aimed towards the male side of the population, but it is also curbed to the women. It seems as though a lot of the ads are flashy, in order to get a person's attention. They are usually short, and to the point, because stereotypically, Americans are dumb, and need everything in layman's terms. And they want the latest and greatest version of everything - - even if they just got an earlier version five minutes ago.
