Art & Copy

5 things I learned from the film:

- 7 million dollars is spent on ads per year.
- 2.7 billion dollars was spent on a super bowl ad
- "Just Do It" is a very popular saying for Nike
- advertising companies help get their name out
- advertising helps companies gain money

2. The advertisements helped get Tommy Hilfiger's name popular.

3.  2.7 billion dollars was spent on a 30 sec. ad for the super bowl. I think this much money was spent on the super bowl so it looks presentable and eye catching.

4.  Advertising is like art because its colorful, takes time to do, and eye catching. Advertising is like pollution because it is all over the world.

5.  The slogan "Just Do it" impacted nike to where it made Nike one of the top selling shoe stores and also helped people get out of bad relationships
