Week 9 EOC: Creative Content

So for my creative content i will be going with an audio commercial 90's action movie based. the plot is very simple ass kick your way to these delicious snacks. Explosions galore sprinkled with a heavy dose freedom! the plan is to do a 15 second audio clip live from the war zone. Time is not really a thing of abundance at the moment so i think i will keep it simple and record on my Iphone which has a pretty decent omni directional microphone. then from there cook up the rest in garage band as for the sound effects.

Week 2 EOC: Boston Consulting Group - Video Games

The Boston Consulting Group has an interesting chart on how to categorize certain markets and their future potential or failure. One market that is hot and has been hot for a while is the video game market. Although the market for gaming is growing at an alarming rate, the specific brands and technologies providing the hardware are dwindling, also at an alarming rate. Now that doesn’t necessarily mean that all consoles will go away completely as soon as the production stops. “No, I don’t think we need it, and more importantly there is a business model reason to bypass the console, because the publisher will make more money if you play off-console.” This is a slow transition over the next decade or so, but nevertheless the ability to judge where the market is heading. According to the model The Boston Consulting Group has given (Stars, Cash Cows, Question Marks, and Dogs) we can size up the video game market. In the Stars spot at the moment is going to be mobile gaming. Right now in this day and age it is app games that are just simple enough to be endlessly addicting and just rewarding enough to want to go back to gain levels and points. These games, although very successful, are very primitive, and how fast technology is moving forward, the need for console quality games on your mobile device is going to go through the roof. Imagine the graphic quality and playability of ultra-res console games on your phone. In the Cash Cow spot I’ll give the award to both consoles, Xbox and Playstation. These consoles are sucking all of the cash that they can from the public before they can’t anymore. In the question mark section would be the virtual reality, I don’t think they’ve quite figured out what to do. And the Dogs would be PC’s unless the price of hardware dramatically decreases so they overwhelming majority can afford the hardware to play whatever the video game market can through at them

WK 4 EOC: MY APP

what is more annoying than buying chapstick and after a few uses its gone? For me there is nothing more bothersome than this. Calculate the money wasted on your portable lip insurance you never got to finish, and the countless times you have had to suffer through the day with chapped lips. Terrible times i know thats why i have come up with the find my chap app, name is still in the works but how the app is set to work is by tracking time and location used so the next time your chapstick grows legs you can track it back to the last place used.

Week 1 EOC; Customer Service

Good customer service is hard to come by it seems nowadays, well at least for me it is. I usually don't ask for very much outside of whatever service or good that I’m purchasing. that way I try to make it as simple as possible for those at that moment working for me I figured if I set the standards low then there would be no room for disappointment. All of that has changed at this point after my time spent in Tokyo Japan. I was blown away at how insanely customary it was for the employees anywhere to go above and beyond to provide extraordinary service and then you received what it is you came for. simple things eye contact, a greeting the feel of them actually wanting to be there or the illusion there of is the thing for me that keeps me coming back.
