#1 - This Is What Happens When You Do Drugs


Kindergarteners:
At one point in your lives, you will learn about terrible things called drugs. This man is named Brian Warner, also known as Marilyn Manson. Do you see how he looks crazy and evil? It's because he does drugs. Drugs make you go crazy and melt your brain. Boys and girls, do you want your brain to melt? No! If you didn't have your brain, you wouldn't be able to think, and you would do very stupid things. So remember kids, say no to drugs!

Space Aliens:
The guy above is Marilyn Manson. He is an awesome, creepy guy. Most people (besides fans) don't know that he's a certified genius. He also has his own brand of Absinthe (which is illegal in the United States), called Mansinthe. Marilyn Manson has been arrested numerous times for indecent exposure at his concerts. The term "shock rocker" is used to describe him because he is a reactionist and mainly does things for shock value. A few things he does for shock value are indecent exposure, wearing one white contact lens, scarification during concerts, and just being himself.

ok so first, for your Kindergartener one. I thought it was interesting that you essentially used a picture of one of the most messed up men in the world to scare children out of doing drugs. Much more effective than D.A.R.E if you ask me. One thing that could be worked on that one though is giving it a little bit more depth, because you sort of repeated a bit in that one, so just mix it up a bit, but otherwise, that was awesome!!

And, for your space alein one, I enjoyed it because I learned some odd things about Mr. Manson and it served to creep me out a bit more, which was kind of what you were going for I felt, but I think you could have done a better job at targeting your audience. If I didnt know thats who you were targeting, I would have just thought that you were informing us about the creepy guy in the picture, so yeah, just audience needs work on that one.

GOOD JOB THOUGH!!!! IT WAS COOL!!
