I really wanted to do something new with our blogs, so Ms.Pollock gave me a few things to research on. I chose the topic about models, and airbrushing/editing.
Have you ever seen billboards, or pictures with flawless models?
Something like this:

Let me tell you, some of them are not even real!
Well, real people being edited.
Don't believe me? Watch this video;
Amazing huh!? Check out the HUGE difference airbrushing made;

But honestly, why would someone go through all this trouble for public media attention?
I think people nowadays should show true beauty, and not somone who has just been edited, and unreal.
But what do you think?

Great work on this Claire! It's really shocking what advertisers think we are naive enough to believe. I agree with your true beauty statement. I wonder if you want to do a mini ad campaign on true beauty when we get to making our own ads?
ReplyDelete^Ms.Pollock, that would be such a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to do that!
Now, I can't wait!
