Day 1

I am on the Humphreys Hall Hall Senate and we have been preparing all month for our annual Mardi Gras celebration and tonight we began preparing our advertising. First we made a huge yellow paper banner that we plan to hang up in the union. The banner had Mardi Gras on it in big bright letters and then other details about the even like time and place. We also made sure to add that we would be giving out free t-shirts (which I personally designed) as well as a Wii, and IPOD Nano, and gift certificates. We also painted ads on plywood which we then screwed together and place d at strategic locations around campus. I think it is interesting that media isn’t just all around us, it comes from us. We aren’t just its victims, we are its creators. The media invades are very being in that we all have a message to share with the people around us and we all want to have an effect on out audiences.
