Day 1 - Presentations

I felt that today's presentations went well and learned a great deal from all three. Jeff, Sam, and Mike presented a company, Flying Dog Brewery that appeals to our age demographic. The in depth analysis of Flying Dog was informative and they were able to draw connections back to the relevant course work we have been doing throughout the semester. The topic of beer and alcohol will naturally draw attention from the average college student and I would not be surprised if some of us 21 year olds go out to buy some flying dog. This brewery appears to be a great example of the type of company that is comprised of people who truly enjoy and have a passion for what they do.

Max's presentation on Digital Rights Management superseded my knowledge and expertise on technology by light years. Majority of the class can say the same. I was impressed with the language and terminology he used in the voice over.

Pat's presentation was a direct correlation to the recent election and campaigns. Using PowerPoint he effectively covered Barack Obama's campaign and how it came to be a success over John McCain's campaign. PowerPoint can be tricky sometimes to communicate the message and Pat used it in a manner that worked. I was most drawn in by the visuals throughout the slides. The visuals serve as an engaging element that keeps the audience interested.
