multimedia for our presentation

hello
I have done quite a lot of research and have found some very interesting multimedia clips that we can put into our power point presentation. The firts is a video clip (here's the link)

This is about how children see what their perents do and they do the same. It has inspired me to focus one of my advertisments on this theme. It fascinates me how our older genertation has grown up as consumers and have passed a consumerist mindset on to us and the fact that we will do the same to our children.

Adverting is more serious and far-reaching than we actually realise. It dose not only affect us now but the true symptoms are clearly evident in our yonger generation, in fact this mindset becomes more entrenched as it is past down through genertaions with the constant reinforcement of this advertising.

The second meltimedia item we can put into our presentation is the Cat Steven song - 'Where do the children play?' It comments on how we have been affected by consumerism and makes us question how it is going to affect the generations to come.

http://tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/c/cat_stevens/where_do_the_children_play_crd.htm here's the link to the words of the song. We should play it to the class in our presentaion. Yeji, maybe you can play it on the electric piano and I on the giutar ( just an idea...the chords are on the website with the words of the song)

I will see you tomorrow!

Goodbye!
