EOC Week 6 Seduction of the Online Surfer

Film is a disease. When it infects your bloodstream, it takes over as the number one hormone; it bosses the enzymes; directs the pineal gland; plays Iago to your psyche. As with heroin, the antidote to film is more film. -Frank Capra
  1. "The average American attention span in 2013 was about 8 seconds. The average attention span in 2000 was 12 seconds. And then get this kicker - the average attention of a goldfish is 9 seconds." -Market (Radio Program)

In this day and age, the attention span of an average American is 8 seconds. That is how long you have to "seduce" an online surfer, and the way I intend to capture the attention of an online surfer is to have content that is not only satisfying but worth sharing with everyone. I have a website and in order to maintain it I have to constantly keep updating it with new pieces, weekly. As all my work becomes watched, I will have a page where it shows what's coming soon to the website that way people will keep coming back and see what's new, and keep them anticipated for it. Another way that I plan to get people to keep coming to my site is to have a list of future projects lined up and I will write a synopsis about each project and have people vote on which project they are excited to see happen. That way I can build a fan base and continue to trend my work.

How will you organize your job search time and follow up to get results?

I will organize my job search time by networking with other people while I am working. I meet new people everyday and those people are potential future clients. I will also look through various job searching website such as indeed.com and monster.com. I will either call, email or fax employers for follow ups to get results.

EOC Deeper meaning of Devil Wears prada


Deeper Meaning of Devil Wears Prada

Dolce Gabana, Lou Vutton, Kate Spade. Just a few of the names that should automatically come to mind when you are a person in the fashion industry. This movie is filled with do’s and do not’s, when it comes to getting a job in the real world. The Movie centers around Andrea and she is a journalist that gets a job at one of the top fashion magazines in New York. She is oblivious to the fact of how big of a deal it is to get a position at this company and one that is especially close to working with a Legend like Miranda. Although this movie may seem like a comedy, it really does not shape up to be when you analysis it a bit further. The movie is about learning from your mistakes and realizing what it takes to be somewhere where you want to be in your chosen career field. It comes to show that it is imperative to research and prepare for the career that you are heading in to, because it is not as easy as it seems. You have to be able to take every opportunity and turn it in to something worth your while. In addition to taking every opportunity, there are many sacrifices that we must make. That sacrifice is time, with other people, especially those that you love. There must be a time in your life where you need to find out what matters to you most. Sometimes you lose people and sometimes you do not, but all that matters is that you are who you are and you are happy with yourself.
