Sometimes its deafening, and sometimes not the image you may think or wish to promote

Cool - IMHO ads are also, ironically, often more "real" than other forms of popular culture where often the protagonists are in charge of the message. e.g. most people assume everyone in the 60s was into rock music, drugs and freaking out but the biggest music sales were in "easy listening", the people in places of influence in the media are those who were freaking out at the time so thats the message we get.
Modern Mechanix has a great Automobile section too.
Will there be an output from this course, a presentation or document you could post up, I would love to see it as I'm sure others would too.
