—>BODY ImAgE<—

W.A.N.N.A.B.E—> want. appeal. notion. numb. animosity. bleek. envy. That’s what Kayla and I decided to identify our coalition of what we are against, or cause (body image.) It might change later on but its the best that we can think of for now :)   We chose body image because it is a huge issue and we feel that we would have a lot of support. Its important to do something when people are undergoing anything, any drastic change to look a certain way, far from what they really look like. We are aiming purposely on teens and pre-teens mainly, but this issue is so controversal that it can be targeted at anyone, any age, any gender. Our Plan is too actually research how far people really go to change any type of physical feature on their body and some of the shocking truths of how things really end up. After researching enough, we will compose a touching yet truthful commercial on youtube.com of these truths and make our audience aware of what they possibly are doing to their bodies, and how they can better themselves in other healthy ways! YAY!!! Our portion of the presentation will be pretty much only accessed on the internet anytime. We will contact the newspaper and school director to see if we can set fliers to advertise our commercial so the people we are targeting at will be interested in checking our document out. I will get into depth of way thats people are changing their bodies, while Kayla will be researching how these ways affect our health. Together, we will put a piece on how you can boost your self esteem in a benefical and healthy way and be an overall happy person with yourself :)

    This is a really great idea. While at CU Boulder there was a display of stats about women and losing weight. And if i remember correctly it said that 43% or so of 10 year olds were going on diets. You might wannt double check of that number but isn’t that just freakin crazy. A 10 YR, YOU DON’T EVEN REALLY KNOW WHO YOU ARE THAT AGE. But i thought would be helpful to ya! :)

    You are on a roll! This sounds like a great project, and I’m looking forward to seeing your commercial. Are you going to have students act in it? Or are you going to put it together yourselves? I can’t wait to see it! Love ya!
