Companies in this market must consider that they need to speak their audience’s hip language and walk their walk, in order to win their loyalty and hook them in for the long run. For these companies, this is a smart move, because, according to the film teenagers are stubborn, skeptical and impressionable (Rushkoff, 2001). So, rather than giving them a questionnaire to merely fill out on what they like and dislike, top companies put a lot of money, time and effort into making sure their high paying consumers are happy. For example, they have special one-on-one research sessions conducted in their homes or at extravagant locations. They throw excusive parties at hip venues and respectively pay their teenage guests.
In the middle of the circular logo is a cartoon of a 'two tailed siren', which is a unique design - this makes the graphic stand out even more. The logo was in the form of a .gif (graphics interchange format) when I downloaded it from the Starbucks website, since the logo needs to be high quality; it's range of uses span from a small sized coffee cup, to huge store signs. In my opinion, the target audience for this graphic is 18 - 40 year olds, since the whole idea of 'coffee on the go' is something which would appeal to working men/women who need to save time. In addition, the logo is not particularly 'child friendly', since many younger children wouldn't be capable of reading the text - comparing the logo to say the 'McDonalds' logo which is much more simplistic and fun (yellow arches on a red background). Furthermore, I think that the use of thin white stripes close to each other to make up the siren's tail could be problematic when printing the image e.g.
With nine studio albums and twenty-five mixtapes, all eyes are on Lil Wayne to see what is bound to come next. Wayne is my favorite choice as a “National Living Treasure” because when people listen and hear what Wayne is speaking about in his songs, they become inspired and motivated. For example, If Lil Wayne talked positively about President Obama in a song, I believe his polls would increase just because the rapper is that influential over his fans. If put to good use I think Wayne could become a very inspirational and motivational speaker, who catches the attention of millions of people. With his most recent album, The Carter IV, selling over three million copies in only five months; all he has to do is say something negative or positive about someone and all of his fans automatically have the same opinion.

The Chevrolet commercial had a catchy tune and would probably be a good radio advertisement, but it was much better with the video that went along with it. The people were happy and were enjoying their lives, and the video created a sense of nostalgia. The tune itself might create some kind of nostalgia, but the video is so touching that it could make anyone want to buy a new Chevy. In the mid 70’s, the Chevrolet commercial sent a message saying that their car was as American as apple pie, hotdogs, and baseball. In the 1988 commercial for Volkswagen, the actress shows the necessity of the car when she throws away all other material goods besides the clothes on her back.
Their enthusiasm reverberated in every corner of film discussion about Jedi Story. Another reasons to opt this topic is business of Disney itself.

Lastly, while gathering some information about this, there would be so much fun when group members enjoy watching trailer or previous episode of Star Wars to get the sense of it. Decision making process Low goal ambiguity and low procedural uncertainty or named as Rational Mode should be the perfect condition for this kind of decision making.
It is one of my personal favorite films because of its simple, but provoking storyline, wich director Frank Darabont managed to pull off in a classic style, making it feel like a timeless piece of cinematography. In addition to this, I believe the acting is great, particulary Morgan Freeman, who seems to ass an impeccable degree of realism to his character ‘Red’. I think we should watch it in our English class because it is a film that everybody should see at least once in their live, because it is highly recommended by various polls
