  1. I agree with this PSA poeple should be happy as they are.What matters is whats on the inside not the outside.I can relate to this.Poeple should be themselves and not matter about how they look.

  2. The PSA showed in this video shows that girls and guys have insecurities and focus on images that they look up too, so they keep and keep repeatedly trying to look like them.They used statics to show or to prevent this on happening anymore.The images that teenagers see tell them in a way to change there self to look like that and since they want to fit in they do that.I could actually relate to this because i see it happening to people around me i would like for it to stop people shouldn't change who they are just to fit in is not right.

  4. This PSA is very strong in the sense that it contains a lot of statistics and facts to support the general message the author wants to leave the audience with. It shows how overtime things have changed greatly, and appearances are starting to affect people, in particular girls in ways they shouldn't. It wants to show you how there will always be this set perfect image, but it is all a fantasy, you wouldn't survive with a barbie-like figure. However, I think that the author should have included a call-to-action towards the end to give the audience a solution instead of just stating a problem. Also, she could have used another element in order to show her message instead of just stating facts.

  5. I like that, that PSA used famous cartoon characters and toys to prove its point. I think using does characters and how perfect they look really showed how bad it really is in real life. I think it could be more convincing if it added a sadder background song.

  6. I really like this PSA because the author's message was very clear for it's audience to understand. I can totally relate to this PSA because we as human beings are never, ever totally satisfied as who we are and that's why we look up towards others that are "perfect" but perfect isn't always reality... Anyways I think that this PSA should have included a solution, for example a website people should visit or a hotline something beneficial for the audience.

  8. I think that the author has a clear message for the people to be informed of why this is bad. People should be happy and feel good whith how they look and are. Who cares about what other people say just be who you are. As long as you have a life you should live it how it comes and not trying to impress people of how you look. what matters is what you have inside your heart. - Miriam

  10. This PSA exceeds in the focus category. This PSA is very specific when it talks about people's image. I agree with this PSA because people should love themselves the way they are.

  11. This PSA exceeds in various cateogories. It's statistics immediatly bring in the reader. The PSA also brings in things that maybe kids use everyday. This brings up questions such as, is what my children playing with bring them low-self esteem in the future? Maybe the industry is taking a toll on the youth by putting up advertisment on models.

  12. I really agree with this PSA because it makes people know and understand that nobody is prefect and being you is as close to prefect as you could be.
