Hey everyone here is my Short Film that I did for Social Media
Infomercials Research
Boy George – Karma Chameleon Telephone
I like this Karma Chameleon Telephone infomercial because when people phone Karma Chameleon starts to sing the Karma Chameleon song that everybody knows
Atomic Charge Wallet Commercial As Seen On TV
I like this infomercial because is about wallet that can charge your phone at the same time and no need to carry around that big wallet
Phone Relief Hands-Free Headset
This is fantastic infomercial because you can use your phone handsfree so you can still continue whatever you were doing
Cat Tower
This fantastic Cat Tower infomercial because cats are always sitting on your funitune and now they will have their own place to chill out and relax and also it is easy to move so you can place it anywhere in your house
Amazing Elastic Plastic
This is a fantastic Amazing Elastic Plastic infomercial because you can just make anything out of it and also it will not pop like normal balloons do
Shower Wow
I like this Shower Wow infomercial because before kids didn’t want to take a shower but after the Shower wow is put on they will always want to take showers now

Feedback
Hey guys and girls,
Liam, here I was just wondering if you guys could give me some feedback on my blog. I’m a digital art student currently studying at NorthTec, so I’m pretty sharp at using technology.
Any feedback will be appreciated.

Considering Media Law
When you are looking for Social Media platforms to use for art purposes, whether professionally or recreationally, it is really important to consider laws and copyright. Reading the Terms & Conditions (and privacy policy) is especially important for ensuring you agree to the rights of how the social media platform is requesting to use your work. While most of them will only request the right to publish and display your work, it is important to make sure you aren’t giving away rights that you don’t agree with, especially when money is involved.
Here are some links about media law in New Zealand
