1. There has been debate over if this movie is genuine or a "mockumentary". What do you think? If it was a mockumentary - why would Bansky do this?
I think that this movie is genuine and a mockumentary because a mockumentary is a uses fictional events in a documentary form and it is usually to comment or analyze and this movie shows fictional events. I also think this genuine because it is showing actual, true, and contemporary things. I think that Bansky wanted to do this to show what graffiti art means to graffiti artists.
2. What do you think the street artists are trying to get across to the public with their graffiti?
How can you tell they were effective?
I think that street artists are trying to send out their message and get people to see what their kind-of seeing. I think that the graffiti pictures were effective because people who were interested in it would stop and examine it. For example, when Bansky cut the telephone booth, tons of people took pictures of it and was amazed by it.
3. What do you think that Mr. Brain Wash was trying to get across to the public with his art? Was he effective?
I think that Mr. Brain Wash was trying to show that graffiti art is also like art in the galleries and that they are different and unique. I think that he was effective because when he opened his art gallery, there were tons of people that came to it. Plus, there were people that were even breaking in to see his gallery.
4. What do you see as the key differences between the street artists work and MBW's work?
I think the key differences between street artists and Mr. Brain Wash was that street artists has a meaning to make graffiti and that they were trying to send out a message to people while Mr. Brain Wash was just like for viewing and buying. Plus, he had people to make his art.
5. At the end of the show lots of people showed up to the art show. Why the long line? What brought so many people together?
There were long lines because when they were advertising for Mr. Brain Wash's gallery, it was promoted by the Obey guy(Shepard Fairey) and Bansky's, so I think that people thought that the gallery is going to have very good art.
6. Graffiti: Is it art or vandalism? How would you react to someone painting on your wall? What similarities do you see between graffiti and guerilla marketing? Where is the line for Shepard Fairey or Banksy, when they move from making art against the mainstream machines into making money off of their art from the mainstream machines? Did they sell out or did they achieve success?
I think that graffiti is art and vandalism because it is very unique and different and its vandalism because they are covering buildings and they are releasing gases. I would be upset if somebody painted on my wall unless they painted something that I liked. I think the similarities between graffiti and guerilla marketing is that they are both trying to send a message out to people. I think that Shepard Fairey achieved success because he made tons of money and he is even creating a clothing line. I also think that Bansky was successful because tons of people know his art and he makes tons of money as well.

If I was a manager of a store that had an employee that was always late and they always seemed unmotivated. I think that I would try to negotiate with him/her for ways to make him/her like work, like talk about the appropriate time that she/he wants to come to work, how many hours that they need, and how would they make up the time. I think that my leading style would be an autocratic leader because it says that autocratic leaders like to build trusting relationships and like making friends.

Why is customer service important?
I think that customer service is important because if you are kind and loving and you treat your customers with respect, then they would want to come back to your store due to the way you treated them. When your customer sees that your store is good then they might recommend their friends to come and shop there. Its also important because if your customer service was bad then they wouldn't want to come back to it and they might tell their friends about the way your store ran.

How does Stanley's video relate to the school store?
I think the video that Stanley show us somewhat relate to the store because they were saying that you should like make your self feel like a consumer buying from your store. If you can relate to your consumer than you can tell how they wanted to be treated/respected. Also, you have to be aware of the different cultures and you have to treat them with respect.

What I learned about Marketing in Physics?
What did you learn from this video?
He said that you can use physics in marketing. He said that Newtons Law is force=mass X acceleration is just like a large particle that has a large mass needs to have a large force to push it. This can relate to marketing by say that the larger the product/brand, the more baggage it has and more force is needed to change its positioning. He also said that its impossible to exactly measure particles but when he's relating it to marketing, he says that consumers always changes their behaviours. So you can measure consumers behaviours by using technology.
He also talked about "THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD" and that "You cannot prove a hypothesis through observation, you can only disprove it". You can have a lot of examples to back it up your hypothesis but you cannot prove your hypothesis.
He also said 'LOOK OUT FOR SCREW UPS SO THAT IT DOESN'T MESS UP YOUR WHOLE WORK"
He also said entropy is a measure of disorder of a product that keeps increasing. So all you have to do is accept and embrace your product as it increases.
QUESTION: How did he figure out that physics can relate to Marketing?

The four P's are Product, Price, Promotion, Place. Price is the amount your selling the product for, Promotion is when your advertising your product/service, Place is the area where you are selling the product/services, Product is the thing that you are trying to get people to buy. AIDA is used in marketing that describes a common list of events that may be undergone when a person is selling a product or service.

Which category do you predict will generate the most profit for the store?
I think that the category that will make the most profit for the store would be the food. I think that the food category would sell a lot because Forest Lawn has tons of teenagers so many of them would be hungry and many teenagers like eating snacks like chocolate cookies or fruit gummies, lollipops, etc. Also, many teenagers like chewing gum especially five gum or like juicy fruit. Plus, the prices that the school sells these stuff for are way cheaper then the prices in the stores.

If I was given a ugly christmas sweater, I would try and target people that need sweaters for christmas at a cheaper price. Or, I would give some free gifts along with the sweater. I may even try to convince them that the sweater isn't only for keeping warm but it could be a use for something else. Or I would try to build a relationship between the customer so that if he/she know me then he/she might buy it. Though, I can try to like make the customer feel sympathetic so that they might buy it.
