I have never paid much attention to record labels or who an artiest is signed with. One of the biggest country record labels in the country Big Machine records. Taylor Swift, Thomas Rhett, Tim McGraw and many more are signed with them. All three of these artists have made country history throughout the years. Through the years Big Machine Records has come out with country artists that have made history making their record even more known. Most of their sales are from CD's from the past years but, as time changes so does their sales. Most are done on itunes or online. Now-a-days all we hear about is record sales and being number one on itunes or number one on the charts. We now based earnings on how many countries a certain artist is number one in.  Country music as time has gone on has taken a turn and has become more modern. Though their still our old school country stars most have evolved with the time period, as have the fans. To me their target audience is more focused ...

I don't really find myself reading a magazine. I have never been someone to get my favorite snack, a magazine, sit and relax. Though I decided for this assignment to check out what the deal is with them, so I decided to look at People. I remember when I was younger my mom flipping through it as we waited in line at the store. I know that People magazine is not the most stimulating magazine but, I did find it be interesting. At first glance the cover is completely filled with pictures of celebrities. Through out the magazine the pictures continue while the print seems to be less important and smaller. Most of the images are of celebrities. Even some AD's are of celebrities. Most of the pictures of white celebrities and the stories tend to be on more important than stories of people of color. After filliping through the magazine I finally found a few celebrities of color and those stories were more about "Who wore it better". A lot of the photos of diversity was also ...

In today's culture social media  is everything to us. Our lives our based on how many likes or favorites we have and the reassurance of comments from the people in or lives. We live on our screens. Most don't know the behind the scenes of social media and what goes into them like, synergies. One of the most famous companies in the world is Disney. When most think of Disney they think of the obvious, Walt Disney, Pixar, etc. One that most don't know know about is ESPN because there content is completely opposite. Though most have no idea of the correlation of the two, neither are affected by that. The growth of the business are still booming and part of the biggest social medias. ESPN bring in 115 million viewers a month, making it one of the biggest sports stations in the world. It is known that when the commercials come on that is when people will do to the bathroom, get food, or switch to a new show. If you do watch the commercials you can see that a majority of them ar...

I am someone who can sit down and watch a serious of movies in a day and never be bored. Going to the movies in the last years has become an experience. It no longer is a a ticket for $5 and a drink, no. Now seats recline for comfort, people can order meals in theater, and the movies themselves have become a trend. Directors and PR teams have taken movies and turned them into a fan club, by creating serious so not only do the fans return but their money does as well. http://www.imdb.com/list/ls066822531/ Above is a link to IMDb's list of the top 20 movies of 2017 so far. It was no shock to me that Beauty and the Beast.   With it's love and reminding people of their childhood, it was predicted to be a sell out. One movie on the list that stood out to me was the Fast and Furious movie. Everyone has at one time complained about the serious but has watched them at some point. This past movie, the 7th one, came out and broke records for tickets sold. People not only came to the...
