Week 5

Topic 1:
My concern for copyright or limits on creativity is how can people have the freedom to be creative and use others work as examples or inspiration without it interfering with the copyright laws? I find it to be difficult for many people who use materials as inspiration to not be put in a binding position. They tend to list what they used as inspiration or discuss it and they always have to make it clear that they do not own the rights to anything. To me that is troubling to have to go through every time a person wants to be creative.

To me I think that politicians go too far when exercising freedom of press since during their candidacies they tend to dig up every negative possible thing about their competitor they possibly can and they put it out to the public only to better themselves.

I felt very sheltered because I didn't really think anything of hiphop and rap music. I couldn't really not hear it since my brother's room was next to mine and he would have it full blast everyday but as I got older I listened to it more and now I understand what my mom was doing but at the time I thought it was unfair that my brother could listen to that kind

Topic 1: I chose to use Facebook to search for the Adidas brand. On their Facebook page "adidas Original" company page they have thousands of photos showing the various products they are promoting during a certain time. Most of the photos are of the shoes at different angles but as I was going through them I noticed that they are reaching to all ages since they have a children clothing line that they are advertising. They have a list of events that the company is holding such as their upcoming event that is a Photo Lab where they will be using Polaroid cameras to show various techniques to use on Polaroid photographs. On their Facebook page they also have access to their Instagram page. Both the photos and the link are provided for easy access. The biggest promotion on the page is that "original is never finished." This is the cover photo, has featured videos on the page and the most recent posts have to do with that catch phrase. From how the page does their ad
