1) An advertisement that worked was the any size drink for $1 at McDonalds. The commercial that features Justin Morneau is one that is very effective. The reason it is so effective is because, not only does at least half the population eat McDonalds, when you add a superstar (Morneau) then kids and adults will want what they are advertising. Plus, $1 for any size drink is a good deal.

What I've learned from MTN.

I have learned alot from MTN in the last 2 presentations. I have learned how to look deeper into a piece of media and not just see what they want you to see. I have learned that everyhting is done for a reason not on accident. It is good to notice the lighting, sound, setting, etc. so that you can deeply understand everything. I havn't decided which clip I am going to use yet but I want to use a funny scene from a movie. Media literacy is so important because you need to be able to understand media so that you can understand what the artist is try to achieve in their piece.
