Czech Dream

yes, I liked the film because through it we can see how people is manipulated and influenced by the brands put on the market through advertisements to reach the point of becoming addicted to shopping, for This must be aware and not get carried away by the new things put on the market so everything must be done consciously.

New advertising that I leave the movie is that we must not take us down the advertisements and new products that are made, take everything in a very normal and to acquire what is best for oneself.

I really do not think that this movement in Colombia, because we are accustomed to at any time build a new supermarket, which sells the same product in the other and that we can buy in the middle market the same product at a value lower.

We have to understand that advertising is selling half and that is the way to promote their products to be sold and will reach the user but with rioja rioja that I do not agree that this is being used to exploit the needs that have others, especially in places where this is something new, just to cause a consumption boom and generate more sales on the site.
As mankind moves forward, towards its future, it seems to have forgotten one of the prime lessons for all living beings, a lesson about communion and unity with the nature. It appears to have put itself apart from the rest of nature. It doesn’t remember how to belong to its own environment.

As a result of this, we find that our development has made an incredible damage to our home, the earth. We’ve poisoned its rivers and seas, darkened its skies and killed its sons (extinction of species). However, we continue to have the same habits. Our eyes have been clouded by the desire of wealth. We don’t see that if we don’ take care of our planet there will be consequences that we are certainly going to disslike.

scientist are not certain on the exact consequences, but they're sure that they don't want to find out. so for our own sake let's start acting with the conscience that we are part of the nature and we cant live without it.

Czech Dream

Yes I do, I like the movie because this shows how can some people are influence or manipulate to other person, and they make sure people know about a product with a new brand in order to persuade them to buy it.

for me the new about advertising was the a lot of ideas that doing that a group of people worked boards by obtained a objetive.

I think that maybe this don't happen in Colombia because the people here is very rude and not support a mockery and deception.

I disagree with advertising because manipulate the life the people and make people believe things that are not really and play with a time me.

Czech Dream

I didn't see the movie but I read about it so I can say that it was a extraordinary way for two students to make some people realized how advertising has converted them in obsessed consumers. I think in Colombia could happen something like that because I think we are influenced by the tv, radio, advertising and we like to see Colombia to become in a better country in the way of bussiness and other things. I agree that advertising manipulates my life in the way that if I like a good comercial or advertising about clothes or food or drinks because they show facilities of buying them I am one of the first persons to buy it, I know is not good for me and for my money but if is something I like I don't think of it twice.

Advertisment

Today we are exposed to a lot of advertisment in every places at all time it doesn't matter where you are always is about peoples who want to sell something to you, maybe not something especifly but as they say a way of life

the advertisment sometimes is try to impose a way to people should look the things the people should have and the way the people must behave always thinking how to make a profit with their products and they don't care if sometimes make the people fell bad or sad about their lifes because it is not a big deal and the people should not pay much attention to the advertisment, the companies who are the direct responsible about this advertisment bombing said " the advertisment is an old thactic for sale the products and how we sopose ta atract new clients if we can't advertise even the small business advertise themselves" and it is true but some of the advertise sould be more responsible because there are many sensitive topics like the alcohol the tobacco the fire weapons and those related to the body image because in my opinion the people start to feel bad with themselves when they don't seem like the people in magazines or in the T.V.

now we need to make a society where people can live without being bomb by those who make advertisement every dayand this don't mean that there will be no advertisement because in the communication world this is nearly imposible and we can forbide the companies to make a living.

Czech Dream

I really liked the movie, because it shows how the media can influence people, in this case was about the hypothetical creation of a hypermarket. There were a lot of new things about advertising, for example how this two people could persuade an ad agency to work with them in the project, I always thought that this people only worked for money.
I think that this could happen in Colombia, maybe not with the creation of a hypermarket, but in countries like Colombia, that has a lot of problem, economic problems, political problems .... it is not so difficult to create a hope in the people, so they could believe that something they really want could happen, that why I think the people went to this hypermarket because of their hopes. I think that advertising can manipulate me but only when it is something I really want to be true. otherwise I do not think that the media can manipulate me.

czech dream

i think that this movie shows how powerful advertisement really is. it is shocking to see how big its influence is on society. this movie also opens your eyes to the fact that what's advertised is not always what you believe, and might not even be real at all.
this fact is not weird for people used to capitalism and advertising, the come hand in hand. however, people who's not used to it may fall into the fantasy world created by advertisers.
since colombia has been under capitalism for a while now, it's not likely that the efect would be the same. there's only one way to know for sure though, to give it a try.
i believe that advertising has a great power over people, me included, but i dont let it take control of me. since i dont like shopping, it is easy, most of the time. ithin we all can do it but for some it might take a little effort.

Czech Dream

Czech Dream is a good movie, but I think is more like a documentary. I liked the movie because it shows the reall power of ads in our lives.
People are very credulous, and and we tend to believe in thing that doesn't even exist, in this case the hypermarket. The movie shows that people's curiosity can get to trick them easily. We believe in almost everything that's said on tv or that we see in magazines, that's why it's such a huge industry. People in the film were attracted by the low prices that were shown in the ads or the flyers, but they were also very confused with the ''don't come, don't spend'' campaign so they only believe what they wanted, that it was refering to the other markets, that this was a superior hypermarket.
I also think this could happer in Colombia, but maybe in a smaller number. People here are very attached to T.V and publicity, so it would be easy to create a tricky campaign. I said in a smaller number cause people in Praga were not used to this kind of things and were also more worried about the political issues they had in that time. But in Colombia, in the other hand, could be advertisement dependence what could make us fall in a tirck like that one.
I agree that advertising manipulates our lifes. Maybe not all of us are so attached to it, but it is everywhere we look, is also the way we are used to live. If it wasn't that way, companies wouldn't spend that huge amount of money in ads. Is an easy way to get to people and it simply will not stop.

CZECH DREAM

Movie: The Czech Dream

The Czech dream is interesting movies that show how the media of communication can manipulates people through the advertising. I like some parts of this movie that show different types of advertising very useful for the undertaker to identify some ways to persuade the costumer to buy her product. Other thing that like of the movie was the way of two guys to convince the prestigious brands to give the advertisings for the thesis` research, and how they planning the ghost hypermarket.
The movie don’t have new types of advertising that I kwon but it is source to everybody to have a business carrier or start up a search about the advertising. The situation showed could happen in Colombia because the Colombian people are spender and always looking for new products and service. I disagree that advertising manipulates my life because this only should a tool to help people to find her needs.

Anorexia

As we know Anorexia is an eating desorder.
This eating desorder is more common in higher society class people and in people who work with the media, but it is also common in teenagers.
People who suffer from anorexia have usually extreme weight loss. Some of the symthoms of this desease are anxiety,weakness, shortness of breath and obsessiveness about calorie intake.
If you have a relative that suffers anorexia, you need to give this person all the support this person needs, and you should tell this person to go a doctor or an eating desorder expert.
Most of the time people with anorexia put resistance, that is why the importance of a counselor in this kind of situation.
It is importat to know that women with eating disorders have higher rates of miscarriages and the baby might be born prematurely, and that becomes a problem because the women and the babies are in risk.
But the good news is that anorexia can be overcome, people with anorexia can recover ther lives, they have to provide themselves the proper care in order to overcome this eating desorder.
To exercise is very important for your health life. Every person should at least go to the gym a few days peer week or practice some sport as a hobby. It helps to prevent illness and it gets your muscles stronger. Exercising is a good way to keep your body in shape and it actually makes you look better. Clothes will suit better on you also.

A very simple but effective way to stay in shape and healthy is by running. Is one of the most common way of exercising and is something we are used to every day. Just walking home after work instead of taking the bus will do the work.
People who do exercise during their life increases the posibility to live longer.
The hard part of exercicing is getting used to it or to create routine for it. Try putting it into your schedule, or try doing it with some other friends. They wil cheer you up when you need it and you will be also doing good to them.
As everything, it also has a bad side. Some people gets obsesed with exercising. everything has it's limits, and passing trough them is not good for your healt. In this case it could drive to by the end damaging your muscles. But if you are aware of what you are doing that shouldn't be your case.

This group of dance is compose by students of the North University and exist many courses to learn this rhythms.

Music: An important aspect in our lives

Have you ever heard about the history of music?
Have you ever though how life would be without music?
Have you ever seen a movie without music on it?
I bet you haven't, have you?(well, maybe at muted...)

Let me tell you about the histoy of music and why it is such an important element in our days.
At the beginning the men was bored, anything could make him happy. Everything like usual, nothing strange happened, of course he was gifted with animals, other people, beatiful views of montains[...] and so on. Yes, he tried to create new games, and make his life more fun he found nothing but the music, making all kinds of sounds. Sounds that makes him laugh, or cry, or jump[...]. whatever, once he new about making not noise but sounds he start mixing this sounds in order to make rythms. So he continues to the point music was made.

People that once was bored because they do nothing more than sleep, eat, and play became happier for having such a beatiful elemet by their side.
Nowadays music give an special touch to our lives. There's no film without music. There's no party without music. All the radio stations plays some music. It is used for therapies for helping people control their stressw, anyway there is a lot of apliations of the music. In summary: Life without music is just a mess.
