Overall I think my video came out good, although, my original idea was not what ended up being produced. I originally wanted to show a timeline of a male and then of a female on how through each stage of life advertisements are influencing. From a small child choosing which toys were acceptable for their gender to play with, to adulthood buying the latest wrinkle crèmes. I decided that would take a lot more time than 3-5 minutes to make it clear, and in-depth enough so I decided to alter my idea.
I decided to use some of my original idea, but focus mainly on women and what advertisements declare to them. I wanted to use a lot of images to prove my points (most of my images I found through google.com). I began with a few definitions of sexism, in case some viewers were unsure of what it officially meant. Then I asked a friend, and my mother on what sexism meant to them, to give a real-life definition of the term. After those few introductory slides I begun with images and how they influence women about the importance of appearances. After those slides I wanted to wrap up with a few ending thoughts, and well as a one-slide timeline of a females acquiescence with advertisements through each stage of life.
I am happy with the outcome of my slideshow, I wish I could have used a movie program to make the images flow better, but I did the best I could with powerpoint. I think I organized my ideas well, and the introduction slides and conclusion slides held my presentation together nicely!
