publicity

Nowadays, advertising is implicit in our lives, and where that can be seen best, is at the media most used by the Portuguese people, which is the television. In this media we see a advertising in all intervals, or rather, all intervals are advertising, institutional or not, and much of it is hidden even in television programs, which will cause our subconscious to be thinking in the advertising, thus causing a craving for the product, not knowing where it comes from (anxiety) bringing the subconscious to interact with the conscious, which is later in the "force" to buy the product because it makes it like a drug, which has to be "consumed” (purchased) to satisfy the desire for it.
Advertising is everywhere (radio, television, billboards, in our clothes and ornamentals, etc..), Which forces us to a "blocking" and get a brain “retardation”, it can fill the brain with too much information, yet relatively hidden, and distract us from the central feed of our existence, which is live and not, buy.
Well, advertising has many faces, or negative types, such as tricky and abusive advertising, and is tricky when the result which promised was not fulfilled, and abusive when encourages consumers to take dulled actions for him, like as for to society, (in a short way to say) such as advertising films for adults during a time that is very unlikely, especially dedicated to children, causing it to have an impact on their future.
But advertising can not only be bad, so a critical favor, is that it tells us and tells about the important things, which are more dependent on these days, such as the vaccine of the cervix, donations to charity, etc.. thus giving us the opportunity to live a more healthy way.

How is advertising?

Today advertising is a means commonly used by people to publicize their products and sometimes their work. We see these advertisements on TV, on electronic billboards located in cities, giant posters placed in the streets, in leaflets distributed in shopping centers and sometimes even advertising to reach our home via the ctt (post-road).
The type of advertising is the most used television as millions of people spend much of their time in front of a TV. It occupies almost all the time gaps in progamas television, making it sometimes a little boring due to its large number of repetitions.
The advertisements are not always true, ie do not address the reality as it is, we call it advertising. Advertising hides many secrets that people do not know.
This has been growing and evolving more and more over time. In ancient times it was not anything like it, since neither had television.

In addition to the disadvantages that the advertising in the back also has its positive aspects, such as for example, knowledge of jobs through advertisements in newspapers, magazines, etc..
Looking at how this has developed, it is expected that advertising is a great technology in the future.

The history of toys

Since ancient times that toys have played an important role in the lives of children. For thousands of years children played with toys of all kinds. Marbles were used by children in Africa for thousands of years. In Ancient Greece and the Roman Empire, were common toy boats and wooden swords, among boys, girls turn made their own cloth dolls.

During the Middle Ages, puppets toys were very common among children.

By the end of the nineteenth century, most of the toys were manufactured in house, or handmade.

Currently the toys are no longer made of cloth or wood, are mass manufactured and marketed.

The most common toys for babies aged zero to twelve months are simple musical toys, toys or crib, objects that hang in the baby crib. These toys encourage motor skills, vision and hearing of the baby.

After the first year of life, blocks that can be fitted together and stuffed animals are also interested in the baby.

Dolls are attracting the attention of children around the second year of life.

Between the two to six years of age, the child becomes more interested in exploring the world around them. Some toys such as tricycles, balls and building blocks help to strengthen the muscles of the child.

However, it is concluded that the toys underwent tremendous development are no longer simple cloth toys or wood and have become useful for the development of children and even created assigned so strong that keep your favorite toy ever!

Consumerism

Consumerism is the act of consuming goods and services indiscriminately, with no notion that can be harmful to our health or the environment. There are several discussions on the subject, including the type of influence that companies, through advertising and publicity, as well as the culture industry, through the TV will have on people.

Often the ads on TV are the main source of curiosity to

get people to try the products used by famous people sometimes are not the best suited for certain people, what with the excessive use can cause further damage, including problems health and also losing a lot of money.

Life isn’t the same without advertising: We just open the door and found a wonderful billboard of cheerful colours, such as size; the slogan could hold our attention for five seconds that will not easily be deleted from our visual memory. The world is irrevocably directed to marketing; the truth is that we no longer imagine another situation.

Maybe is too much, maybe enough… Nothing bettr than the voice of the citizen to make me understand the influence that advertising has on society. For this I was in contact with lots of people of different ages, in order to understand what is their opinion about the advertising. I obtained the following results:

- The most of women support the advertising and prefer see it on television;

- On the other hand the men are of the opinion that advertising is uninteresting, though they support it.

- They prefer television advertising, like women.

Then, I did a study for ages in order to understand what factores influenced the impressions of society.

I can conclude trough the graphs that people over 60 beginning not accept the advertising, maybe the knowledge and experience of life has influenced the way of thinking. From a general point of view, people can accept advertising and also support it.

Relatively the preferences, television is undoubtedly the organ of communications elected by the majority to enjoy the publicity. The radio is a organ of communication especially used by older age groups: The young people don’t hear much radio. One of the reasons for this fact is the replacing of radio with the Mp3 and Ipod’s.

Now… I have a huge doubt: Did I will advertise this article?
