timeline:Hugh Ramopolo Masekela was born on April 4, 1939, in Witbank, South Africa.t the end of 1959, Dollar Brand (later known as Abdullah Ibrahim), Kippie, Jonas,Makhaya Ntshoko, Johnny Gertze and Hugh formed the Jazz Epistles, the first African jazz group to record an LP and perform to record-breaking audiences in Johannesburg and Cape Town through late 1959 to early 1960.Following the March 21, 1960, Sharpeville Massacre - where 69 peacefully protesting Africans were mercilessly mowed down and the government banned gatherings of ten or more people - and the increased brutality of the Apartheid state, Hugh finally left the country. Hugh was helped by Trevor Huddleston and international friends like Yehudi Menuhin.By 1963, the trumpeter had recorded his first solo album, TRUMPET AFRICAINE, and the following year, Makeba and Masekela were wed.

blog entry #4.3 - adult cereal box(A)

i think this desighner to this cereal box targeted adults because its saying how its for people with health problems and helps the heart. so thats most likely for adults. i think its neutral gender. the slogan is a heart with cereal i it.

blog entry #4.2 - childrens cereal box (A)

the desighner of this cereal box has clearly targeted children because it has a cartoon leprican on the cover and has lots of colors and a smile. and it has a rainbow on the cover to get kids attention. i think its not really targeting a specific gender because it has rainbow on it so i think that makes it more neutral than it favoring one gender.the advertising slogan is a leprican that knows magic.

blog entry #4.1-design task(A)

for this project weve been assigned a famous person each to make a cereal box based on that person. i have hugh masekela-south african trumpeteer,composer,and singer.

blog entry #2.22- Human Ingenuity (E)

i think maybe some adults might be offended by my cards because i dont ave any for them also some elderly might be offended because they might think im putting them in a category that they do not want to be in and might be looking forward to something very dofferent. i just hope nothing will go wrong and all of my target consumers will enjy my cards.

blog entry #2.21 - greeting card 3 reject (B,D)

this is targeted to all children. it has a friendy cartoon on the cover.
i think this design is less appealing because i dont wanna show these chindren another cartoon because they see stuff like this everyday. i want to wow them with something original and unique not the same old thing.
id make the picture different ang more bright. something more for the kids to look at. i dont want to bore them i want them to love my card and for it to be something theyll remember.

Blog Entry #2.20 - Greeting card 3 (B,D)

my target consumer for this card are children. i felt children would love this because of all the bright lights and colors.
i think whats most appealing is the picture. its a castle with lights showering all over it. i think children would love it because they always think of castles and magic. it shoulg go perfect with there imagination.
the sketch was originally a dull building in light but this fits the consumers likes perfectly.

blog entry #2.19 - greeting card 2 reject (B,D)

the consumer targeted by this card is the elderly.
this desighn is less appealing because i feel its not giving enough to wow my target consumers. i feel its not as good as the other.
this desighn could be improved by adding to the picture because its very dull.

Blog Entry #2.18 - Greeting card 2 (B,D)

the consumer targeted by this card are the elderly i feel that elderly are not really cared for in or community so thats whhy i chise them. i think this card will make them feel greatly appreciated.
i think the saying isappealing because its so simple and the picture mainly because itll wake them up.
th original sketch was bad in color and it didnt have a saying so i corrected each problem.

blog entry #2.17 - greeting card 1 reject (B,D)

teens are the consumers targeted to this card. i like to target this because i feel teens would find it unique.
i feel this design is less appealing thhan the other one because its way too much and you could hardly read the word  on the cover.
the designs colors could be changed to make it better.

Blog Entry #2.16 - Greeting card 1 (B,D)

1. describe the consumer targeted by this greeting card

2. what elements of your card desighn are meant to appeal to this consumer? explain.
i think the picture comes out most to the consumer because its really big ant the first thing you see also its very cool to look at. also teens usually dont really see or celebrate this card or see these fireworks.
3.compare the final desighn with the original sketch . what changes were made and why?
the picture was kind of changed ans so was the consumer. what changed was the saying. i thought this saying would mean mre to my consumer than the other because its better and more simple.
