INTER-WAR PERIOD
World History April 1,2011 In the interwar period many countries participated but the ones we talked about were: United Kingdom, China, Italy, France, and Germany. Starting with France; from 1919 to 1938. France was quite successful at the world war 1, because it was a victorious war, therefore France lost a lot of men, 1.5 million of innocent people whose lives were taken away. Though they achieved a victory, France will never recover from that blow, since it started affecting in a notorious way. There was a decline in economy also, and when France was asked to pay for the war damages, they did nothing to pay back. Therefore government chose Germany as the one who was paying all the expenses and damages from the war, and this was determinate in the Versailles Treaty. Raymond Poincare was the head of France back then, and he demanded for Germany to pay for more damages, and because Germany didn't pay right away, France sent its troops to attack. And in exchange of that the Dawes Plan was formulated an agreement where now France was paying the debts of Germany. After France felt the need to set borders. France was basically destroyed by Germany. But this didn't compare to what Hitler did to Germany. Thought Germany was put in accusation for starting the world war1, it was even supposed to pay all the expenses that it caused in the war. The interwar period was the worst time perhaps of all times. Not only people were brutally assassinated, but after the war, there was a huge destruction everywhere, and some leaders took over countries and led them to failure. Countries decreased on economy, the agriculture was a mess, everything was basically a disaster after WW1. All countries were devastated and horribly affected. However Germany and France had similar issues going on. The fact that both places were lacking of toadding business, which made their economy got lower, however for Hitler was easy to lead Germany. Germany needed a leader, but of course, not that kind of leader. And by kind of leader, means a guy who's interest is himself and the ones of the Nazi parliament. However, before Hitler was on the power, France needed their money for reparations and because Germany didn't pay right away, they invaded them. So after in 1925 the Treaty of Lacarno was established and France began to receive more money from Germany. What related so much Germany with France was their spirit and passion to still fight after a War. Both countries were stubborn, and they each wanted to get away with whatever they could. At least Hitler got away with something, which was peoples lives. In conclusion, this time was devastating for everyone, but Germany and France besides war they had their own issues which was ridiculous after that massacre. The Holocaust was a huge event in history,and it was caused due to the WW1. Just as cause and effect, WW1, was the cause the effect of that was the treaty of Versailles, which caused trouble, therefore as an effect WW2 became present.

Reflection about the Prezi
I thought the Prezi was a fabulous idea,it is way more beneficial than Power Point. Sincerely, i wished that i had knew this web site before, it would have worked so much, being so helpful. I think it benefits Power Point because its almost the same but you convert it into a video, which you only show 'slide by slide' what you want the audience to see by the order you want. I think its beneficial in the part that you don't have to be clicking slide after slide, its only one whole presentation which moves by itself. Another benefit is the fact that you can see youtube videos directly. You don't have to click in a link to open a page, the video is already loaded and playing. So prezi is only better than Power Point only by few amazing details. I find it super easy to work with it, even easier when i took a 2 min tutorial which guided you through everything. What i didnt like was the fact that you cant time how much you want a photo to bee seen, i would had like to research a little bit more in that, because im pretty sure you can i just dont know how. And i would like to add music to the background. Another thing i disliked about Prezi was its 6 background theme, it just wasnt creative.I found difficult the embed the video to my blogger, it was hard for me, thats why i asked a friend to teach me how to do that.
I really dont know! i mean i have been working with Power Point for years now. And honestly replacing it with Prezi would be something BIG. But i would rather work with Prezi is more simple, easy, creative, and looks way better. Plus in Power Point all the slide shows take a lot of space in the computer (mb). But the Prezi is just a simple video that doesnt occupy lots of space, so it loads fast.
i would chose PREZI!

non smoking p.s.a
Me and Sofia got 'non smoking advertisement'. We planned it all and we decided to make one of the many situations of why is it bad for people to smoke. We chose a 'mother' who was smoking in the car with his kid in it, and he got contaminated for so much smoke, that when he was older he ended up having lung cancer. We chose this because, we thought about adults as well as teens realizing by seeing that when they smoke, they affect the ones surrounding them. And if you have the unhelthy vice to smoke, children are exposed to your vice also. Its dangerous to contaminate their little lungs with your unawareness.
What i would like to change perhaps would be putting more emphasis in the kid, or being more serious about the situation. I think our p.s.a. gets to the exact point, but i dont think is very strong enough. What me and sofia wanted to do it transmit some kind of guilt, that way people stop being so unaware, and care more about their health. It was good but im guessing not that powerful, it was interesting, though some people might had laugh. That was not the point. We wanted to be serious about this theme. Doing a more concentrated and foccused p.s.a. that makes people worry. Using more strong and shocking images! thats what remains in the brain. Which psycologically makes the society react, and be more aware of this health situation.
The best one in the class for me was debora's and jade's. It went straight to the point, it was ovious, it had concecuences of the acts. They achive the main goal, demonstrate: cause and effect. They did an interesting P.S.A. but its more for teens. They inform directly which was great.

COMERCIALS
As watching videos from the super bowl and videos from the classemates you really identify the art and the creativity from them. I watched so many commercials from the super bowl, but the first one i saw, was the one i loved! I bet everybody else did to cause is simply entretaining. Well my favortie comemercial fromt he super bowl was the 'darth vader-volkswagen'. With this little kid dressed as darth vader trying to move stuff around, is just hillarious. The kid did the whole commercial perfect. I wouldnt change ANYHTING from it, is simple, clear, hillarious, entretaining, and it sells the product! what else can a commercial have?
But then.. there where those awful commercials, which not only where boring but there was one which seemed absolutely scary! I would change everything from it. 'Android is ready to play'. hoenstly the commercial is scary and disgusting. They but thumbs on a robot, im so busy looking at how disgusting is it that i dont even know what the advertizement was about. I would change everything form it. It just doesnt have a good idea, and is not a nice image to see.
Then my friends comercials well they where all pretty good and others boring or lack of enthusiasm but i have a winner in this cometition. :)
My friend JORGE VITAL takes the award to the best comercial. He did an advertizement on 'coca cola' and its simply hillarious, funny, entretaining, simple, and it sells the product. Jorge's was the best. It was the one i kept repeting over and over and over, cus i just didnt got tired of it. Jorge congratulations! your creativity took you to the top, you are ready for the big industires! hahaaha
His video was the best! honestly!

Carlton Draught Comercial
I love this commercial is really hilarious and over all unexpected, which is the fun part of it.I thought that this commercial was so creative, that is what i like the most about it. The commercial i picked Carlton Draught | "Big Ad"is a commercial which promotes beer. And is so itnense because you see thousands of people running agains teach other until they intersect and you see the image fromt he sky and it looks like a guy drinking beer. This commercial isnt of the ones which leaves you with a message, its just simple fun.
Though there are other commercials that do leave a profound effect on you. An excellent commercial that I seriously got a lesson of is the following:
http://www.yout ube.com/watch?v=dT1GvPQG904
It is about everything that you post online. The reason this commercial had a profound meaning on me, was becasue it was like a wake up call. Everyone can find out everything you post on the internet, parents, friends,family, even strangers. Sometimes we don't realize that internet isn't private, and that as it is communicative and informative its also dangerous.
By watching commercials daily you learn the ones which are not so good, and the ones which catch you attention quick. There are every type of commercials, they promote shoes- and even trips, etc. Its not what you are promoting is the way you do it. You've got to interest the audience, keep them watching (of course not for a long time), and get directly to the point, leave them with the product in mind, and make them feel as if they needed it. The elements i would use in this project are a video camera, a theme of what my commercial will be about, my props and some people perhaps. What challenges me the most in this project is interesting the audience and make it seem like a real commercial. And of course my BIGGEST CHALLENGE IS: leave the expectations thinking of the product I'll be promoting.
COMMERCIAL OF ANTI SMOKING....!
