    -Do you like watching commercials?
    Yes, I like very much watching them.

    -Do you believe that some commercials can make people think apart from selling them a product?
    Yes, i think there are two types of commercials,which onley sell you the product, and others that give you a message, o maybe you can identify with your life or an experience.

    -What do you think about this commercial?
    I like it and when I saw it, I remerbered some of my fiends that stay all the day with their blackberry! Maybe I don't understand because I don't have one.

    -Has it ever happened to you?
    Yes I think so. Sometimes I stay all the day thinking about study o others problems and I don't play attention to the person who is with me.

    -Do you think this situation will become worse as time goes by?
    I don't know, you can have access to all sides with the tecnology but in the other hand you never disconnect and somehow you don't have the same privacy.


    -Could you please describe all the situations that are shown?
    fist there are a couple walking along the beach, and then the woman dissapear. The second one, is a boy next to two guitars thar are moving alone.
    Then there is a woman in a metting room and the chairs are moving.
    In the scene numer 4 there is a girl waitting to across the street, then a girl is in a car and nobody drives it. And in the end there is a men and a pencil thar moving alone, and then appears his daughter.

    Don’t forget the real life

  4. -Do you like watching commercials?
    Yes, I do. This one was very real.

    -Do you believe that some commercials can make people think apart from selling them a product?
    Yes, I do. There are some commercials that make people think and reflect while companies sell products at the same time.

    -What do you think about this commercial?
    I think this commercial represents the reality, many people forget about their surroundings while they use their movile phones.

    -Has it ever happened to you?
    It doesn´t really happen to me, but i have a cousin that uses her movile every time.

    -Do you think this situation will become worse as time goes by?
    I think this situation will become worse as time goes by beocuse movile phones will have more functions.

    -Could you please describe all the situations that are shown?
    The situations shown in the video are the following:
    • A couple walking on the beach and the man forgets about his girlfriend.
    • A boy and two guitars floating.
    • A woman on a meeting and the chairs were moving without people.
    • A girl behind an umbrella and nobody is carring it.
    • A girl traveling by car and nobody is driving.
    • A man sitting on the sofa and a pencil is drawing.

    -Could you choose some characters and write a story?
    One Sunday evening Robert was walking with his wife on the beach. Then his movile phone started to ring and he answered. Rose disappears. When Robert finished talking, Rose appeared again. He looked at her and they kissed. THE END.


    -What about the message of this commercial? It is not in English but if it were which one would it be?
    The message could be “be connected to life”.

    -What kind of company is DTAC? Where is it from?
    DTAC is a movile phone service company. It is from Thailand.

    1) Yes I do.

    2) I do believe, in fact those commercials have a better reach to their customers.

    3) I liked it a lot. I think it is well done, those images makes you think!

    4) Never happened to me.

    5) I don't think so, it couldn't be worse than now and I think that a rollback could happen in a future.

    6) - Suddenly a girlfriend of a guy disappeared.
    - A woman in a meeting without people on the sits.
    - A girl under an umbrella without someone holding it.
    - A kid sitted on a car without a driver.
    - A man that saw a pencil drawing by it self.
    - Finally in all the mentioned above someone appear on the empty positions.

    6) The message could be: "Watch out where your life is going, sell your cellphone to us for 1 dollar" (good business)

    7) I don't know what kind of company it is but it looks is somewhere in Asia.

    -Do you like watching commercials?
    Yes, I enjoy watching commercials and this in particular.

    -Do you believe that some commercials can make people think apart from selling them a product?
    Yes, absolutly. The big companies choice more and more this comercials and I think thats fantastic! For example, the cigarrettes companies put photos in their cigar package or write that the cigar kills or something similar. Another example is companies that sells alcoholic drinks.

    -What do you think about this commercial?
    Its great because nowadays the adolescents cannot live without cellphones or playstation and that is wrong.

    -Has it ever happened to you?
    No, but it happened to a close person and the problem was that he could not talk with a girl without the computer because its easier to talk by facebook or twitter where you dont see the person to their eyes.

    -Do you think this situation will become worse as time goes by?
    Yes, I think that.

    -Could you please describe all the situations that are shown?
    - a girl in a meeting for work alone.
    - a child under the rain with her mother that doesnt exist.
    - a couple walking on the beach and suddenly the boy became alone.
    - a father looking how his child paints but she wasnt there,it was only the pencil drawing by itself.
    - a boy with two floating guitar.
    - a child in the car withour driver.

    -Could you choose some characters and write a story?
    A couple went to Brasil for vacations after a long year of work. They were walking and the girl was talking how much she loves this place but her boyfriend was only with his cellphone. The girl was talking alone so she decided to left him alone too. End


    -What about the message of this commercial? It is not in English but if it were which one would it be?
    Technology is not everything in your life.

  14. Jennifer,

    Some corrections:

    ------- and this ONE in particular.

    Yes, absolutEly. BIG companies choOSe more and more thESE comMercials TO ADVERTISE THEIR PRODUCTS and I think that´s fantastic! For example, (the) cigarrettE companies put photos in cigarETTE packageS or write that cigarETTE kills or something similar. Another example is companies that selL alcoholic drinks.(WHAT DO THESE COMPANIES DO?)

    It´s great because nowadays (the) adolescents cannot live without cellphones or playstation and that is wrong.

    No, but it happened to a person CLOSE TO ME and the problem was that he could not talk with a girl without the computer because it´s easier to talk by facebook or twitter where you don´t LOOK INTO the person ´S eyes.

    Yes, I think SO

    -- a girl in a meeting WHO IS workING alone.
    - a child under the rain with her mother WHO DOESN´T exist.
    - a father looking AT how his child paintED but she wasnt there,it was only the pencil drawing by itself.
    - a boy with two floating guitarS.
    - a child in A car withouT A driver.


    A couple went to BraZil ON vacation after a long year of work. They were walking and the girl was SAYING how much she loveD thAT place but her boyfriend was only with his cellphone. The girl was talking alone so she decided to LEAVE him alone too.

    1)Yes, i like. I really enjoy watching commercials.

    2)Yes, of course. I think that some commercials can make people think apart from selling them a product.

    3) I think that this commercial is confuse in one hand and not much in another hand. "To disconnect to connect", disconnect from the real life to connect with the cellphone or on the wrong side, or maybe disconnect and connect are words to explain the relation between real life with technology life. how much we use things like smartphones for example to feel connect with the society.

    4)Yes, usually i`m with my cellphone and someone is talking to me and i can`t pay attention to him or her.

    5)The way things are today, i think that this situation will become worse as time goes by.

    6)a-a couple on the beach.
    b-a teenanger under the rain with her umbrella.
    c-a little girl with her father.
    d-a woman at the office.
    e-a boy with his friends playing the guitar.
    f-a girl with her family in a car.

    7)I choose the couple on the beach.
    "That morning Zara called Simon to said that she was pregnant, they were so happy and decided to go to walk on the beach to think about the name of their son or dougther. While they were walking Simon was with his phone playing with a memory game and didn`t pay attention to Zara, she get so sad and let him alone walking no where and the worst part: He didn`t realize that his girlfriend has gone!"

    8)I think that it could be something like: "Social Network is destroying your real life, WAKE UP!".

    9)DTAC is a company or communication and it`s from Thailand.

    • It`s happens all the time, I did it, my friends did it, It`s like an addiction.
    • Yes, but I think if everybody realise about this, this will change.
    • There is a girl drawing next to her father, an student with her mother in a rainy day, a woman in a meeting, a boy playing the guitar with friends, a couple in a beach and a girl in a car with her mother.
    • The story is about a nice couple spending the day in a park. She was talking about her problems and he was chatting with his new cell phone. When the girl realise about this, she said to him that that was wrong but he didn’t care about it. So she left him alone and 5 minutes later he started walking trying to find her but she wasn’t there; she left him.
    • Enjoy life and leave technology away.

    -Do you like watching commercials?
    Yes, I do. I like watching commercials very much.

    -Do you believe that some commercials can make people think apart from selling them a product?
    Yes, definetlly. Companies want to sell their products so they have to work to people buy them. For this reason they implement marketing strategies. This is why, nowadays, people don't only see characteristics products in time to buy, they hope that companies give them something more, that calls value added. That "value added" can be a message, a gift, etc.

    -What do you think about this commercial?
    I think that this commercial leave us a good message because many people don't have a limit to use cellphones or technology and it generates that comunication face to face is loosing.

    -Has it ever happened to you?
    Yes, it has.

    -Do you think this situation will become worse as time goes by?
    Yes, I do. But, I think that if we wanted, we could change this situation.

    -Could you please describe all the situations that are shown?
    Yes, I could. There are six situations: a couple on a beach, a girl with her mother in a car, a woman in a meeting, a student with her mother in a rainy day, a girl drawing next to her father and a boy playing the guitar with his friends.

    -Could you choose some characters and write a story?
    I have chosen the couple.
    Last Sunday morning, Peter met Julia at the beach. They had been in love for 3 years but then they had a discussion and they decided to take a bit of distance. Peter didn't know to do, he though that Julia was very angry with him but he missed her a lot so he decided to talk with her. She wasn't very angry and she missed him a lot too. But after a moment he changed her opinion because Peter in the middle of the conversation took his cellphone to see his notifications on Facebook. Julia told him that it was one of the reasons from her anger. Peter recognized his mistake and he promissed her that he would never take his cellphone unless it was important. She understood him and now they are together again.
    -What about the message of this commercial? It is not in English but if it were which one would it be?'
    I think that if the message of this commercial were in English it would be 'Life is too short to lose your time in social networks, live your real life!'.
    -What kind of company is DTAC? Where is it from?
    DTAC is a cellphone company. It's from Thailand.

      Yes, DEFINITELY. Companies want to sell their products so they have to work FOR people TO buy them. .... ThAT is why, nowadays, people don't only see THE characteristics OF THE products WHEN IT COMES to buy THEM, they EXPECT companies TO give them something more, that IS CALLED value added . ......

      I think that this commercial leaveS us a good message because many people don't have a limit to use cellphones or technology and face to face COMMUNICATION is BEING LOST
