postsecret

The postsecret postcard idea was a good way of letting the guilt off your chest to the person you are holding the secret from. I found a photo of a PC and windows 8 and made that the background, and it represents the secret i have. This is because i own a PC computer(not really, fake secret) that my parents gave me as a gift but ive always used apple products and am a mac guy, which they dont know and i would feel bad telling them that id rather have another computer than the PC. But, oh well. My audience would be to people who have trouble identifying if they are a PC or Mac person. I think my design maches the secret because it embodies the essence of the problem: miicrosoft windows.

peer review

I think todays peer review went very well. My revision process will include me adding more detail in my essay while clarifying some points that i realized were confusing. The most effective peer review format would probably this on because it helped me find the points of my essay that weren't so clear and i now have suggestions to correct the errors rather just underlining. A main part i will add to the essay is a personal experience of a sweatshop worker so i can catch the attention of readers and elaborate more on their situation.

spoof ad

This spoof ad appeals to me because of the way it works to mock mcdonalds. The use of red and yellow, the colors of McDonald, highlights the hazard sign on the fries, which is important to prove to the readers that fries are rather dangerous to your health. Also the needle going into the burger is another way of representing the quality of the food with all the chemical enhancements, used to gross our customers. It is evident this ad is making fun of mcdonalds ads because it contains  the image of a meal, fries, drink, and burger  Each looking poisonous in its own way.
