Movies and Recordings

My favorite movie of 2013 is Django Unchained.  I enjoyed the twist of a slave being the main protagonist and embarking on a journey to free his wife.  I liked the action and the dialogue of all the characters and was impressed at the costumes and scenery of the slavery time period.  This movie challenged me to reconsider the stereotype of slaves and proposed an alternate reality of slaves fighting against their masters. I saw this movie as an electronic copy on the internet.

My favorite movie of all time is Saving Private Ryan.  It brought brutal images of World War II to life in a very dramatic fashion.  It didn't glorify the violence at all but instead displayed the human sacrifices men had to make in order to survive on a daily basis.  I enjoyed the portrayal of Soldier camaraderie, the pondering over moral dilemmas arising during wartime, and the climatic battle scene where a few American Soldiers stood their ground against a well armed German attack.  This movie has made me rethink the "value" of war because it causes so many promising young lives to be cut short.  I first saw this movie on video cassette.

Magazines

Here is my proposal for a new magazine:

Name: New Beginnings

Concept: My magazine would target unemployed people, people in between jobs, new college graduates, and discharged military veterans to explore new career opportunities and job availability.

Reader Demographics: People of any age, male or female, mostly lower and mid income

Reader Psychographics: People who value money, want a career change, struggling to make a living, goal oriented individuals

Completing Magazines: Fortunately, there are no magazines that currently cater to the unemployed.  My magazine will be successful because I am targeting a market that no other magazine company has targeted before.

5 Potential Advertisers: Colleges, Staffing Agencies, Service industry employers, Military recruiters, Government unemployment agencies.

5 Potential Articles: How to begin your new job search, interviewing tips, resume writing, networking workshops, local career fairs.

Cover: people in business attire gearing up to be successful, bright happy colors to give people a positive vibe, a diverse group of people to reach out to all demographics of society.
