Hodge's Common's on Prezi

This is a prezi presentation that I made for my English class. It is a visual rhetoric showing just how awesome the Hodges commons are. I thought about doing it on how eerily quite and empty the study floors are in the morning, but then I thought that the commons would be cooler. So, this presentation took a lot of hard work and effort to make(mostly because I'm not really all that tech savvy) so I hope that everyone is able to enjoy it.

Disney Copyright

I thought that the Disney copyright video did a pretty good job in getting it's point across. It chose to use the movies from the Disney vault to try and get their point across about the use and abuse of copyright laws. By using a large, powerful organization like Disney that is well known to millions, they were able to talk about things that most people wouldn't normally be interested in, and gave them something that they knew so that they could understand the point that they were trying to get across. It is however a risky move to use an icon such as Disney. Many people grew up with Disney and associate it with the happy times in their childhood. To some having the symbols of their childhood shown as being shown in an evil way can be considered the same as a slap to the face. Using well known icons to try and get your message across is a risky gamble, but can be very profitable if done right.
